I don’t even know where to start. My daughter and her fiancé were determined to have their wedding at a zoo. After reviewing several possibilities they chose the Elmwood Park Zoo, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. If you choose to get married at a zoo, animal interaction is one of the top priorities and the Elmwood Park zoo did not disappoint. We chose to include the giraffe feeding for all of our guests along with six different animal encounters throughout the evening. The guest were thrilled. The zoo also offered a variety of different locations for the ceremony and the cocktail hour which was nice to have options. We then chose the Canyon Garden for the reception which was lovely. They recently added a bridal suite which was a nice bonus. The only downside is that there is no adjoining bathroom and outside food was not allowed when the bridal party was getting ready. Perhaps at some point in the future, they will offer a light snack menu. The zoo also offers an extensive menu for both the cocktail hour and the reception. The food was very good and the caterers accommodated our requests for special dietary needs. I have to say we were very high maintenance. We had a specific design vision with many moving parts . In addition, my daughter added several specialized elements to the evening… A peanut butter and jelly unity ceremony , a memory bouquets for loved ones no longer with us and their 2 large dogs participating in the ceremony to name a few! In many ways we pushed the envelop and the zoo met every challenge. We did decide to hire a Day of Coordinator (Lauren from IDoInvites was phenomenal), but the the star of the zoo was Becky Bell who is their Event Manager. I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful she is. Her attention to detail was incredible. She made everything look easy.. and trust me it wasn’t! We had a lot going on ! She always had a smile and never got ruffled no matter what issue or change we requested. She is a true professional, and I attribute her to making the evening a success. As I mentioned we also hired Lauren from IDoInvites as our coordinator and she and Becky were in total sync. What a dynamic duo these two were. I would highly recommend the Elmwood Park Zoo for any upcoming event.

We had the most incredible experience hosting our wedding at the Carriage house! It has been taken over by Prime Hospitality catering who did an amazing job from start to finish! Our guests raved over the food, waitstaff, and bartenders! Katie and her team took care of every single aspect of our wedding which allowed my husband and I, our families, and our bridal party to be stress free and enjoy the day! I could go on and on about how amazing our wedding day was! Not a single thing went wrong, Katie and her team decorated the venue beautifully, the service was fantastic, and our guests continue to reach out about how beautiful the wedding venue was. It was better than I could’ve ever expected! I hope that the Carriage House starts to see an increase in weddings at their venue because they are truly amazing at their job! Katie coordinated and helped me with planning the wedding out from day 1. She worked relentlessly behind the scenes to ensure we had a great day. The food was the best wedding meal I have ever had and I’m not just saying that because I had my wedding here. The restaurant associated with the caterers “Brandywine Prime” makes amazing food. I will admit when initially wedding planning I was unsure of the carriage house due to the lack of online presence and photos of recent weddings. It is truly a hidden gem and definitely worth considering for your wedding day!!

Our wedding at The Rivet was everything we could have hoped for and more. From start to finish, the experience was flawless, thanks in large part to Meisee and her incredible team. She was attentive, organized, and went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. Throughout months of planning, she was always available to answer questions and offer guidance, and on the wedding day, her support was invaluable. The Rivet was incredibly flexible and accommodating, allowing us to access the venue early to set up and even letting us return the next day to collect our decorations. This level of care and understanding made the process so much easier and stress-free. The space itself is absolutely gorgeous—unique, stylish, and the perfect setting for our intimate wedding of about 100 guests. The atmosphere was lively, and the dance floor was packed all night.

We had our wedding at The Loft At Landis Creek in June and it was the perfect venue. Their staff, especially Nicholas and Kelly, were incredibly helpful, professional, and accommodating throughout the planning process. They responded to all our questions quickly and with thoughtful suggestions. On our actual wedding day, which broke local heat records for June, the venue staff went above and beyond to keep our guests as comfortable as possible by providing extra fans, hanging curtains over the windows prior to the ceremony to block the sun, and adjusting the A/C. The food was delicious and served promptly. The venue space itself is gorgeous with an indoor/outdoor layout that provides flexibility. Overall, working with The Loft was a terrific value and they made the entire wedding planning process smooth and stress-free by taking care of the set up, tear down, and all the behind-the-scenes work that goes into orchestrating such a special day.
