Celebrate Love As Deep As The Ocean
Celebrate Love As Deep As The OceanGulfarium Marine Adventure Park is an aquarium, marine institute, and venue hosting weddings in Fort Walton Beach, FL. Couples can say ‘I do’ in the park’s event space against a backdrop of vibrant coral and diverse marine life. The park has endeavored to create a unique space full of wonder, for a wedding experience that will leave guests talking for years to come. The marine park’s history stretches back over half a decade to its founder J.B. Siebenaler, an esteemed researcher from the University of Miami. The park was created with the vision of encouraging the public to engage with marine life in a close-up and meaningful way. The institution has been a pioneer in the industry, from developing the first synthetic milk for dolphins to being the first to incorporate scuba gear. An aquarium, tourist attraction, and research center, its mission continues to this day, entertaining millions with its daily marine animal demonstrations and exhibitions. Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park offers couples the chance to wow guests with a wedding under the sea. The property’s event hall, The Living Sea Aquarium Room, is a spacious setting walled by floor-to-ceiling aquarium windows looking out onto a lively scene of underwater life. Tropical fish in a kaleidoscopic range of colors dart to and fro across the coral reef, as a calming blue light is reflected over the wedding ceremony. Guests will marvel at the wonders of the deep with access to a number of the park’s exhibits, including an underwater viewing of the dolphin habitat. The event team of Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park makes planning your big day crystal clear. They offer couples a package that includes setup and cleanup of the event, furniture rental, and use of audiovisual equipment. The management is happy to assist couples in sourcing outside vendors for their event, including caterers, entertainment, and decorators. Dolphin and sea lion shows can be organized exclusively for the wedding party, and a 30-minute tour of outdoor exhibits can also be arranged. For those who would like to get up close and personal with its residents, the park offers animal greetings with some of the smaller animals. NOTE: all events must be booked and paid-in-full at least two weeks prior to the event date
