Weddings

Showers, Grad Parties & Celebrations
Bridal showers, baby showers, graduation parties, family gatherings, and similar celebrations are hosted in our event area as day-long rentals. This option gives guests more time to decorate, celebrate, and enjoy the zoo throughout the day.

Private After-Hours Rentals
For companies, organizations, and larger private groups, Wilderness Trails Zoo offers after-hours private event rentals. These events provide exclusive evening access to the zoo with options for animal viewing, guest experiences, catering, bar service, and event coordination.
HOW EVENT RENTALS WORK
Event rental options vary depending on the type, size, and style of event you are planning.
Birthday parties are hosted at the front pavilion and are rented in two-hour intervals. Larger celebrations such as bridal showers, baby showers, graduation parties, family gatherings, and company events are hosted in our event area as day-long rentals.
Private after-hours rentals are available for groups looking for a more exclusive zoo experience outside of regular public hours. These rentals may include private zoo access, animal viewing, guest check-in support, event coordination, catering options, bar service, and additional guest experiences depending on the event.
All parties are welcome to bring their own food and non-alcoholic beverages. Any catered food service, bar service, or alcoholic beverages must be coordinated through Wilderness Trails Zoo and our catering partners.
