Atlantis Aquarium quotes

Original post by divabride

Has anyone gotten any quotes for a Saturday night there? I know friday runs about $85.... but I was wondering if there was a major difference in price for Saturday.

A hotel? That would be sooo cool!!!! Have they had any bridal showcases or food tasting there yet?

Re: Atlantis Aquarium quotes

I did have my food tasting that was going to be the deciding factor and the chef just cooked for us and we sat in front of a beautiful fish tank and drank our wine and had great food the chef cooked up food for a 5 star restaurant!! I was great!! They don't do wedding showcases u have to put a deposit down to even have a food tasting and then u make your decision to stay or go else were but we were sold!! I'm so excited and i can't wait to post the picture when i'm finished! we also had our photographer go out there and take some picture cause the lighting is different than having it at a regular catering hall and they came out great!! Next month the Dj is going out there to get a feel for the place!! I definitly recommend if u are not using there people to definitly have your people go check it out before hand to make sure they can do it because it is a unique place!! hope that helps!

Don't worry, I don't remember it smelling @ all. The service was good also. I will post pics when I get home tonight. Some of the bridal party was up top with us, I think @ their request. I am not sure how many people she had though! FM me if you have any other questions!

Are you doing a buffet? They did one, the food was ok, but i think the choices they made for the food was poor (that is their fault, the bride and groom). The cool part was while we were waiting in line, we got to look @ the sharks! I assume they have a sit down menu also.

Endless, how was the service? Was there a cocktail hour? Was there an abundance of food? What about dessert? What did you like most about the wedding? Oh just tell me everything, from start to finish!!!

Here are some pics. It is dark in there, so it's hard to get good pics. We were seated upstairs and the overview one of the tank--that was right next to us, along with that huge turtle that kept us company too! I remember the service being good. The cocktail hour didn't have stations, just some passing au'dourves (totally spelled that wrong! LOL) and some cheese and crackers on a table. like i said before, they did a buffet so there really wasn't a lot of food, bu ti remember it being ok. it was cool to see the shark tank while we waited in line. the best part to us, was walking around and taking in all the fish and sea creatures. we even got to pet stingrays! We love aquariums so it was really neat for us. It is great if you are having kids @ the wedding too. Keeps them busy! The other cool part was that they had a ride for everyone to go on. It was like a simulation submarine ride. oh, and the cake you see was not from the place. The bride's stepmom has a cake business, so she made it! I remember the dessert being great though, they passed around chocolate covered strawberries to each table! yummy! It was definetely different than any other wedding we had been too.

Re: Atlantis Aquarium quotes

Your right, lighting is pretty bad. Then again, Im not one for flowers and I was all ready thinking of having candle centerpieces. Thanks for the pics though, I really appreciate it!!

Re: Atlantis Aquarium quotes

candle centerpieces are nice, especially for that place, it'll lighten it up! no problem, sorry the pics were kinda dark and hard to see.

Re: Atlantis Aquarium quotes

Are you making your own centerpieces or did is your florist taking care of that? Im not sure who to go to regarding candle centerpieces. I was thinking of renting small candelbras for each table.
