Go “Short and Sweet”
Now Booking 2025-2026: The Garden Room
Your wedding can be as special as you want it to be, no matter how long the festivities last.
Choose between:
- A heartfelt morning ceremony out in our historic Rose Garden, or inside our premier event space, The Garden Room.
- Saying “I Do” against a dusky backdrop of tropical foliage and vibrant birds in one of two of our immersive habitats, with birds roosting in trees.
Both packages include two hours for a ceremony in the setting of your choosing, and a reception inside of The Garden Room. Each package is ideal for couples looking for budget-friendly options without sacrificing quality amenities or an unforgettable experience.
Add on the catering package of your choice with our exclusive caterer, Atria’s Specialty Catering*.
