Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory sees the health and safety of all guests as a top priority. They have renewed their comprehensive health and safety commitments and quickly adapted to all public health measures to ensure you and your guests are safe and supported. After COVID-19 forced them to redesign their plans for a destination celebration, Liz and Rob contacted the Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory and tied the knot in November 2020, “We can’t say enough, how grateful we were to them for all their help and just how truly amazing they were. Our guests raved about the ceremony, food, and the great lengths they went to make it a safe, enjoyable environment. Making our day truly one of the best days and memorable for all that attended.” After saying “I do”, newlyweds will commemorate their commitments with a ceremonial butterfly release. These special moments are some of the most memorable, where brides and grooms, together with guests, can take a breath in unison and celebrate their vows. The Conservatory is the ideal location for a sentimental and symbolic Unity Ceremony like this. This was Liz’s favourite memory, something she won’t soon forget, “The best memory of our wedding was at the end of our ceremony where we had a box of live butterflies that we released leaving our guests “oohing” and “ahhing”.”

Winter Escape at Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory…

Looking for a winter escape?  Experience the best of both! A tropical oasis awaits you inside, while a winter wonderland unfolds outside. The cold Ontario winter, with its early evenings, dramatic skies, and snow-covered fields can be beautiful, but it often leaves something to be desired. At Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory you can enjoy the best of both worlds, surrounded by nature. Enjoy a heartwarming moment together, outside, on the backdrop of snowy fields, framed by a beautiful, handcrafted archway. While inside, the setting sun and twinkling lights illuminate the lush foliage, tropical flowers, and cascading waterfalls creating a dream-like ambiance and an unforgettable experience.
