We’ll walk you through the entire property, showing you around the Wedding Party House and Terrace, down the Grand Staircase to the Garden Ceremony location, and over to the Reception space. Be sure to bring anyone important to your decision-making and questions — THE MORE QUESTIONS, THE BETTER! We’ll talk through every detail. In the meantime, read over the most common FAQs AND follow us on Social!
RESERVE THE DATE
Either in-person during your tour or afterward, simply give us a call to reserve a date! A signed contract and a non-refundable first payment are required to reserve a date. We send all of our contracts online and payment can be taken over the phone.
We reserve a limited number of weddings annually to ensure our clients enjoy a meaningful and curated experience.
PLANNING
While planning your wedding, we are just a phone call or email away! If you want to visit The Gardens, we’d love to schedule a time to walk through and envision your details. About a month before the wedding, we will have a meeting to develop the reception floor plan, rain plan, and logistics of the day.
WEDDING DAY
On the day of your wedding, a Gardens Venue Host will be onsite the entire time for venue-related questions. The ceremony chairs and reception tables will be set ready for your decor to arrive. We will spend the day ensuring everything on the property is as close to perfection as possible.
