We loved having our wedding here! The night was amazing and the aquarium was the perfect venue for us. Food was delicious and the staff was super helpful. We worked with them for a bout a year and they made sure we had everything planned and ready for us the night of. They even let us taste a bunch of their food items, so we could easily decide what we wanted. They are very expensive, but highly worth it. If you have the money, don't hesitate to book this place ... They are a venue, not necessarily a wedding venue ... Overall, we couldn't be happier with out choice and I highly recommend them to everyone!
This place is awesome, you can easily spend the whole day here. Had my daughter's birthday here, though a little spendy the kids had a blast. Totally recommend this place for special occasion or just a day of fun.
Came to the aquarium to do the Penguin Encounter. It's an additional $25 a person with 10 slots available, and we decided to buy them all for a few reasons, but mostly because it's our honeymoon. We are SO glad we purchased all of the slots. They'd promised a "bucket of fish," but it was more like a large tupperware container of fish. We were quickly out of fish - would have been even faster if we'd had to share said fish! ... The rest of the exhibits were great, as well. We loved the frog exhibits. I've never seen an exhibit with plants labelled. Had a great time here and really love my new penguin sweater from the gift shop...
We had a dinner reception with about 130 people at the aquarium. It was perfect. I was a little worried when our wedding coordinator at the aquarium left to take a different job the week before the wedding, but every detail was in place, and they did an amazing job even without our coordinator. Before the wedding, they set up a tasting for us, and we were so jazzed when we tasted the food. It was amazing! We ended up going with the beef sirloin and the chicken cordon bleu. The entrees were delicious, and all of the sides were, too. We had the cheesecake martini bar for dessert, and our guests loved it. After dinner, all of the guests got to wander around the whole aquarium while they ate dessert. Several of our guests told us it was by far the coolest wedding they had ever been to. Also, it really wasn't as expensive as you would think--it was comparable to most reception venues I looked at. In Utah, one goes to the same wedding venues over and over again, and every reception seems the same. The aquarium is a great way to have a wedding that everyone will remember and that will be cooler than all your friends' weddings. (I know weddings are not a contest, but come on, they kind of are. And you'll totally win if you have your wedding at the aquarium.) I mean, come on. Otters and baby penguins. Can you get any cooler than that?
Our daughter got her dream wedding reception here. We couldn't have been more pleased with this unique venue, and our guests loved being able to explore the entire aquarium as part of the reception. The food was artfully presented and was very high quality. The banquet hall and reception room features a floor to ceiling SHARK TANK, so guests could view sea turtles, stingrays and sharks while eating their food. There's even an elegant brides room attached to the banquet hall, which was super convenient. I highly recommend this venue if you are looking for a beautiful, unique and unforgettable wedding and/or reception.
