Give your guests some additional space and more gardens to tour. Use of our patio and outdoor perennial gardens are perfect for cocktail hour and/or dancing and music at the end of the night. Under the afternoon sun or a blanket of stars, the outside areas offer your guests an extension of space at no additional cost to you! If the weather is bad, move it inside, nothing lost!
For both Stations Style and Cocktail Style receptions - minimal formal seating is required (rule of thumb half to a third of your guest list). These particular styles of receptions are meant to be slightly more informal as they encourage people to mingle more and move about our facility exploring the beauty of nature indoors while enjoying delicious food and beverage. It also allows us to accommodate more guests.
