Decossas-Gutierrrez Ceremony & Reception

8:30 am

Consider wearing pastels or other "nature-y" colors to compliment the gardens. Seating for the ceremony will be extremely limited and reserved for those who cannot stand for long periods of time so wear comfortable shoes! Ceremony will be outside in the Minnesota fall weather so it might be a good idea to bring an extra layer.

We're excited to have you join us for our wedding! Just a couple of notes for our guests: The ceremony will be from 8:30 to 9:30am in the Japanese garden, afterwards guest will have an opportunity walk around the zoo and conservatory before meeting at the Polar Bear Lodge for brunch and the reception at 11:30am. In order to protect the animals and endangered plants at the conservatory there is a strict no outside food or beverage policy, and we will not be allowing alcohol at the reception. There will also be no standing or walking off of designated walkways or throwing things like rice or confetti as it could negatively impact the health of the plants and animals at the conservatory. We can't wait to celebrate with you!
