Linda Sent on 13/05/2024Amazing Location and Brunch!
Loved working with the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory team for our brunch wedding!
This venue is amazing. It was the first location we looked at and we were sold on the spot. My husband and I had wanted a small brunch style wedding that was low-key and unique and what is more unique than butterflies flying around everywhere!
The ceremony and brunch was lovely and we had so many compliments from our friends and family.
The Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory team was the BEST. They answered my bazillion questions with ease and helped us setup everything and even fluffs your dress for you before you walk down the aisle! JUST SUPER!
Thank you again! It was the perfect wedding!
Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words, Linda! We're thrilled to have been a part of your special day and are delighted that you enjoyed your wedding in our tropical garden surrounded by butterflies. Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness! -

Honestly struggling to articulate how special this evening was, thanks to the Conservatory.
To start pragmatically (and let's face it, this is where we all kinda have to start when planning our dream day), the pricing is EXTREMELY fair for what you get!
The weddings team is PROFOUNDLY knowledgeable. It is clear that they have done their research and are selective with their recommendations. They went above and beyond to ensure that we understood everything and that they were answering questions we hadn't even asked ourselves yet. They made the whole planning process soooo easy. They were so quick to answer emails, and while it wasn't necessarily the same person every time, we knew we were in good hands. It is clear that this team works well together and communicates with each other behind the scenes. They are VERY organized.
The venue itself is stunning, magical, enchanting... truly the tropical outdoor destination wedding of our dreams without the weather-related panic of an actual outdoor wedding or having to travel far. We were all surprised at how lively the butterflies, birds, and turtles in the greenhouse were well into the evening (and we all appreciated being able to revisit the greenhouse at any point during the night). The foyer is colourful, clean, and bright, and there are galleries of terrariums and pinned bugs for guests to peruse during the evening as well. We had many people mention that they were surprised and delighted that there was "something to do" in between the ceremony and reception. Our introverted friends were happy to hang out in a quieter space and recharge when needed.
The food was delicious! We had many folks with dietary restrictions, and the Conservatory was so flexible when it came to making the menu work for us and our guests. Folks appreciated not feeling othered for having allergies, and everyone felt safe eating the meals provided.
They are also very conscious of accessibility. My sister has complex disabilities, and the weddings team were so eager to learn how they could accommodate her. She has limited safe foods, and we had offered to bring in her meal separately, but they were able to provide her with her meal instead. She was so excited! It is not often that restaurants and caterers are willing to accommodate her needs. This was huge for all of us!
Overall, we are forever thankful for the Conservatory for making this celebration of our relationship so special. My husband and I remarked halfway through the evening that we almost felt like guests at our own wedding — it was without that "white knuckles" stress that comes from hosting an event, and this is hugely because of the work that the Conservatory as a whole puts in. We are thankful for the weddings team, as well as everyone even further behind the scenes (such as horticulture team, landscapers, maintenance) who clearly have so much love for what they do.
We are still getting (unprompted) compliments from our friends and family who were able to attend our special evening. Everyone enjoyed the venue and it's offerings, the food, and were impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. Our guests are eager to return on their own time (I believe a few have purchased memberships since our wedding). We had such a great time that we'd do it again if we could! -

Jen B. Sent on 06/02/2023Gorgeous venue and amazing staff
I can’t express enough how absolutely amazing the staff at this venue are. We decided to get married only 4 months before our wedding date and the staff were so incredible even with the short notice. They were all so kind and thorough with every interaction. The food was absolutely delicious and they were able to answer all our questions and even accommodate the fact that we wanted two separate desserts for our guests. We only had 26 guests so we did have to pay a fee since we were under their minimum but the fee was incredibly reasonable.
The day of the wedding they set up all our decorations based on the photos we sent them, were there to help with any of the issues with the wedding day of, helped ensure that everything ran smoothly, and packed everything up for us to pick up the morning of the next day. The venue itself is absolutely stunning both inside and outside and you have access to the conservatory all night, but the staff really made all the difference. Our guests had an amazing time and we’re talking about how much fun the staff were to interact with. Truly could not have picked a more gorgeous venue with just the most amazing, accommodating, and lovely staff members. Thank you everyone for your work! -

Thank you so much to Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory for making my fairytale wedding come true!
The food was amazing and they made wedding planning and the itinerary so easy and stress free!
They were very friendly and great to work with as we were out of town they provided us with a virtual rehearsal and provided us layouts of the conservatory and a video of the walkthrough!
I could not have asked for a better venue or better staff to work with they checked in very regularly throughout the night to make sure everything was great.
Such a magical day and experience; I would highly recommend!!! -
