With a whimsical background and intimate atmosphere, the JMZ is a great alternative to traditional wedding venues. Our gorgeously remodeled facility features diverse foliage, romantic lighting, and unique experiences. It is truly the perfect place for couples who wish to showcase their love in a natural, yet refined setting.
By holding your wedding reception at the Palo Alto Junior Museum and Zoo, your love story helps support wildlife conservation, science education for children, and animal welfare.
