The Sacramento Zoo Overview

Take a walk on the wild side with a wedding at the Sacramento Zoo. It’ll be a playful, adventurous day as you say, “I do”! The zoo has four ceremony sites from which you can choose: Rare Feline Courtyard, Gibbons Alley, Amphitheater Stage, and Tall Wonders Viewing Deck. The courtyard resembles an intimate canyon and tigers and jaguars will be in attendance. The gorgeous foliage creates magical light perfect for photographs. In Gibbons Alley, you’ll find tall, graceful trees reminiscent of a jungle, and for those with a flair for the stage, the Amphitheater is also available. It boats a majestic mural featuring canopied gardens and vivid blue sky. Choose Tall Wonders Viewing Deck for an interesting perspective…you and your guests will be eye-level with giraffes! After the nuptials, host a cocktail hour by the carousel (sure to evoke plenty of nostalgia) followed by your reception at Flamingo Lake Patio, where you’ll find a picturesque setting: weeping willows, a lake, and of course, flamingos! At the Sacramento Zoo, your wedding will be a unique and memorable event filled with adventure.
