Description:

The Greater Cleveland Aquarium is a fun and romantic space perfect for your ideal wedding ceremony and reception. The stunning combination of marine wildlife and dim lighting create an intimate and interesting space perfect to invite your friends and family to in celebration of your special day. Imagine saying your “I Dos” in front of the 230,000 gallon Shark exhibit with majestic sea creatures meandering around in the tank behind you as you tie the knot. Furthermore, your walk down the aisle will be truly unforgettable through the 175 foot underwater sea tube. A more memorable backdrop for your wedding simply just does not exist! You and your guests will be able to celebrate among exhibits of sharks, stingrays, angelfish. Following your fun and unique ceremony, a reception at the Windows on the River facility adjoining the aquarium in historic FirstEnergy Powerhouse will be an exquisite combination of romantic and sophisticated. With whimsical cloth draped across the ceiling, warm and welcoming brick walls bringing the charm of the past to the space, and expansive windows offering both light into the room and beautiful views, the space is the perfect space for you and your guests to celebrate.
