The Orlando Science Center is a beautiful, unique wedding venue to host a one-of-a-kind wedding. My wedding ceremony was outsid by Lake Formosa and the reception was in Dino Digs—I love that by working through the science center, I was able to have the outdoor wedding of my dreams, while still knowing that we had a backup option inside if it had rained.

The events team at the OSC are all so kind and helpful. The signing of the contract and the initial coordination was handled by the head of the department, Helen, and then we were passed off to Megan and Tori for the coordination. I will say this was a bit complicated and there would be times where we would have to coordinate with Megan and Tori would be left out of the loop, or visa versa, which resulted in one or two “miss”es during the night of the wedding.

That being said, if I was going to be married at the OSC again, I would make sure to have a long, focused discussion about the temperature in the Dino Digs room. We requested that the temperature be turned down before the event in the founders room, assuming that the rest of the area would be an appropriate temperature, but the evening of the wedding we found the reception area to be way too hot. I had multiple guests come up to me and comment on it, and a few of the elderly guests had to leave early because of it. Worst of all, I became so overheated that I got sick, and wasn’t able to return to Dino Digs for most of my reception. Once we arrived to the room, we immediately knew it was too hot, and Tori said that she spoke to the building manager, but the room was too big for it to make a noticeable impact by the end of the night. We only had 130 people at our wedding, so it wasn’t only caused by the body heat—it really was the venue itself that was too hot.

Overall, this is a great venue, with kind, hard working people that want to make sure you have the wedding of your dreams. If i went back in

We absolutely loved having our wedding at the Orlando science Center! The lakefront where we had our ceremony was amazing for pictures with ancient oak trees and a perfect setting for the ceremony. Everyone had so much fun in the our planets room for cocktail hour and in the Dino digs for the reception (and they us on the terrace for amazing sunset pictures). Both adults and kids loved exploring all the exhibits. Many people were surprised when they heard we were having a wedding in the Orlando science Center, but they do a lot of events and they know how to make everything run smoothly. Our day-of event coordinator was great at making sure all the details fell into place and made things easier for us since we were planning from out of town. My one wish would have been to have a larger dance floor but I don’t know if it would have fit in the space (and possibly my parents requested the small one). You will not regret having your wedding at OSC, it was a one-of-a-kind experience!

My (now) husband and I had our wedding at the Orlando Science Center in March of 2018, and it was absolutely amazing! We worked with Megan and Helen initially, then had Laura as our day of coordinator. They were all incredibly responsive and helpful during the planning process. Laura was AMAZING day of and ensured everything went smoothly. The ceremony and reception were breathtaking, and the coordinators set everything up beyond our expectations! HIGHLY recommend this venue, it was absolutely gorgeous and made planning ourselves easy!
