Weddings and Formal Events
Set yourself apart and prepare for a unique and memorable experience

Knoxville Zoo's lush grounds and tranquil settings form a lovely--and completely unique--backdrop for your special day or special event.

Your guests will enjoy "Hors D'oeuvres with the Animals" in one of the zoo's magnificent wildlife habitats--from the grasslands and rain forests of far-off lands, to the local flair of East Tennessee.

Then it's off to your elegant dinner. Your guests will be mesmerized by your event and the surroundings as they enjoy the food and atmosphere as they dance the night away.

Cocktail Parties, plated dinners or buffets --you name it, we can do it. And our unique animal exhibits and knowledgeable staff will make your event truly unforgettable.
