| How Much Is A Wedding At The Georgia Aquarium |
Buckle Up, Buttercup: It Ain't Cheap (But It Could Be Epic)
Let's be real, renting out a world-class aquarium for your wedding isn't exactly a budget-friendly move. Here's the skinny:
The Venue Rental: The Oceans Ballroom, the prime spot for wedding receptions, starts at a cool $15,000. But that's just the beginning, honey. Depending on the day, time, and how much space you need, that price tag can easily swim north of $25,000.
**Food and Beverage: ** Catering ain't included, and with Wolfgang Puck on board, you're looking at a fin-tastic food and beverage minimum of $4,000 to a whopping $25,000.
Side note: Can you imagine the hors d'oeuvres? Beluga bites, anyone?
Hold on There, Flipper Fanatic! There's More!
On top of the above, there are other hidden costs to consider:
QuickTip: Pause to connect ideas in your mind.
D�cor: Sure, the aquarium itself provides a pretty stunning backdrop, but you might still want some extra sea-sational d�cor. Factor that in!
Entertainment: A DJ with flashing disco balls might seem a little out of place next to a giant whale shark. You might need some uniquely aquatic entertainment, which can cost extra.
Photography: Those once-in-a-lifetime wedding photos with a manta ray gracefully gliding by in the background? Priceless. But the photographer capturing those moments won't be working for free.
The Verdict: Is it Worth It?
Honestly, that depends on your priorities. If you've always envisioned a wedding unlike any other, and budget isn't a major concern, then a Georgia Aquarium wedding could be legendary.
Just remember, marrying beneath the sea might come with a bit of a shell shock to your wallet.
