Elegant, Spacious Venue with Delicious Food
As a wedding venue, it was elegant and spacious. The meal was delicious (I had the vegetarian entree). The catering was unobtrusive and efficient and warm. I can't praise it too highly.

Fantastic Wedding Venue Experience!
Very happy with the museum, we went to visit it as a potential venue for my friend’s wedding and the coordinator present (Audrey) was absolutely amazing and really helped! The visit was great and there are many possibilities at surprisingly low cost for weddings! All in all we were really glad we went there and the experience was amazing!

Museum of Nature: Timeless Wedding Backdrops
As an Ottawa wedding photographer, the Museum of Nature offers one of the finest backdrops and wedding venues in the city. Centrally located, the museum’s classic architecture really suit my style of creating timeless wedding images. When it comes to epic backdrops, the MoN has few comparators. With multiple rooms, including the vaulted and bright Queen’s Lantern, the museum offers a lot of options for different wedding styles

Unforgettable Wedding at CMN
We had the pleasure of having our wedding at CMN! We had an intimate wedding ceremony in the Wolf Exhibit room, followed by cocktails and canapés in the Earth Gallery, and reception in the Hatch Salon. All of this was proposed after touring the museum by our wedding coordinator, Diane! She and the team are absolutely amazing! She was very sweet and attentive to my needs as a bride, especially during a sensitive time. My husband and I really appreciated all the efforts received.
