Event Planning
Photography for Hospitality/Wedding Events
The Garden will be made available for photo opportunities at no charge with the rental of the Events Garden. Photography sessions prior to a wedding must be scheduled in advance here.
Events Garden Outdoor Venue
The Events Garden is located on the west third of the site within the Native Garden. This space is ideal for weddings and receptions and can be accessed from the maintenance driveway for load in and load out. The space can accommodate up to 96 seats under a 30'x30' tent with additional space for buffet tables and/or additional seating.
Our $600 per day venue fee is one of the lowest in the state and is discounted to $500 when combined with a tent rental package (see below).
Please reserve a minimum of 60 days before your event date for the best availability. Request a quote below.
Tent Rental Packages
These packages provide dining layouts that accommodate up to 96 guests and include a $100 venue fee discount. While some of these options provide buffet table space within the tent, additional side tents, tables and chairs can be added to a package for use outside of the main tent. In addition, we can assist with building a customized package to meet your needs and budget.
Request a quote using the form below at least 30 days before your event date. We will prepare an estimate for your approval. Upon approval, full payment will be required to hold the reservation.
