What can you expect from Yorkshire Wildlife Park?
For weddings with a wonderfully wild twist, couples can choose one of the region's most unforgettable venues, Yorkshire Wildlife Park. This incredible setting boasts panoramic views across the animal reserve, and gives couples the opportunity to have some very special guests in their big-day photos!
Parties can spend hours exploring and getting up close to feed the lemurs and giraffes. The venue is also home to some of the most endangered species in the world including Amur tigers, leopards, polar bears and lions.
Time to celebrate!
Couples can tie the knot in The Outlook Suite, which can be dressed to suit any style and boasts incredible vistas across the park.

After this, the Tsavo Lodge marquee is perfect for wedding receptions. It's available with African-themed décor or with a starlight ceiling, glittering drapes and spotlights.
We love...
