Weddings In The Cave!
Imagine A Striking Wedding Backdrop…

…distinguished by natural wonder and millions of years of geological evolution.
Limestone walls glisten in this majestic underworld. A crystal clear river bubbles below.
Now imagine exchanging your wedding vows on The Bridal Altar with a glowing calcite heart. You can be standing among friends and family, surrounded by ancient history and the footprints of a bygone era, the venue honors the past as you step toward the future. In this unique and intimate setting, you will transcend the mundane trappings of terrestrial life.

Following a tour of the cave and a boat ride on The Lake of Venus, celebrate in the homespun atmosphere of the Tudor-style Visitor Center. Breathtaking views from our dining room and surrounding patios set the stage for a romantic and memorable day. More than 650 weddings have been performed in the cave! You can be next!
