The college I went to did a formal dinner/dance at the local zoo. It was a beautiful location and the zoo overlooks the ocean... I'd say, if there was the space to do a reception - I think it would be super unique! GO FOR IT!
Go to the recaps board! Someone just posted a recap of their zoo reception :-)

Heres the link
Actually, I was at a wedding reception at the St. Louis zoo about 2 years ago! They had it at the Lakeside cafe. I loved it and thought it was very unique!
I went to a reception at a zoo in college, it was in MN, and it was really beautiful. There was a dolphin pool that shed good lighting.
We considered the Houston Zoo, but didn't really like the set-ups available. We wanted something big enough for a DJ, dance floor, but intimate enough for a sit down dinner and toasts. Scout out where exactly they will let you set-up and try to imagine your wedding there
sorry, i would not want to have a reception at a place that smells like poo.
I can recall attending one of the best weddings I've been to at San Diego's Wild Animal Park. It was a gorgeous location and very very unique. I haven't attended a wedding since that has been up to par in terms of location, food, and ambiance.
I went to a reception at the Phoenix Zoo in May. It was lovely ... and did not smell like poo, like another poster said!

Hey guys,
I'm down to the last few venue "contenders," and I wanted your help on one: the St. Louis zoo. It's hard to find too many zoo receptions, so I thought I'd turn to the best detectives out there--you guys!
Give me your thoughts on a reception at a zoo...I would love pictures!
