The Garden serves as a stunning backdrop for your next birthday celebration, intimate wedding, rehearsal dinner, or corporate retreat.
Whether you are looking for an intimate ceremony or a lavish wedding, the tranquility of the Garden offers historic charm and breathtaking views. With a variety of outdoor locations, the Garden offers mountain, ocean, meadow, or forest views.
