The Canopy is made up of two rooms, the Palm Room and the Orchid Room. The Palm Room offers a spacious, botanically-inspired venue perfect for hosting weddings and parties. As the larger of The Canopy’s two event spaces, the Palm Room comfortably seats up to 180 guests, and the Orchid Room seats 100 guests. Both spaces are designed to impress with soaring ceilings, wall-to-wall windows, and sweeping views of Olmsted’s South Park. Timbered frames bring a warm, organic charm, while natural light floods the space, creating a refreshing, nature-inspired environment. When rented together, the adjoining rooms transform The Canopy into a grand venue accommodating up to 250 guests—ideal for weddings, galas, milestone celebrations, cocktail parties, and so much more.

Just outside the Orchid and Palm Rooms inside The Canopy, the Atrium serves as a stunning corridor between the new building and the historic conservatory, overlooking the Central Courtyard. Featuring wall-to-wall windows with a gorgeous view of the iconic Palm Dome, the Atrium creates a gorgeous, natural-light filled space that is welcoming and comfortable for guests to mingle and meander. Shared access included with both the Palm and Orchid Package.

What once existed as a paved road, returns to the newly renovated campus as luscious gardens and green space creating the Central Courtyard that seamlessly connects the historic conservatory to the newly constructed building. Visitors and event guests will enjoy a new, lush outdoor garden filled to the brim with gorgeous and inviting colors. Featured inside the Central Courtyard will be over twenty large canopy trees and hundreds of gorgeous, flowering shrubs, perennials, and annuals for a diverse display of gorgeously groomed gardens year-round. Included with the Palm Package and Complete Package.

As part of a wedding reservation to The Canopy at the Botanical Gardens, you will have access to your very own private celebration suite to be used for event prep, lounging, and secure storage for belongings. Both the Orchid Room and the Palm Room will have their own celebration suite to accommodate multiple parties at once. This special area will offer comfort, relaxation, and luxury to our clients as they embark on their most exciting life moments.

Stepping just outside The Canopy is a connection to a gorgeous outdoor terrace for event guests to enjoy, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor style event. The Terrace features a view of South Park, romantic lighting, and perimeter landscapes for privacy. The Terrace is included with the Orchid Package or Complete Conservatory and Canopy package.
