Question

What can I expect from a gosh darn wedding at the aquarium?

Answer

You'll have a blast. After the ceremony, the wedding guests have free range of the aquarium while aquarium staff sets up for the reception. Please fully enjoy the exhibits, touch tanks, and more. Seriously, you can pet guitar sharks, pyjama sharks, and sting rays!!

Question

Parking?

Answer

There is a parking garage close to the aquarium. Parking from 3-5 hours is $10, and 5+ hours is $12. Street parking and surface lots are available, but they are less accessible to the aquarium. Valet parking is available at the restaurant next to the aquarium (Brio Italian Grille) for $12. Please let us know if you want help with paying for parking.
