The Garden offers spaces for weddings, workshops, meetings, lectures, concerts, and receptions and recommends early booking for popular spring and fall months.
Most Garden areas are venue-only, so clients generally source chairs, tables, linens, tents, and similar extras through outside vendors.
Professional photographers and videographers must register/contact the Garden in advance to schedule when and where they will work.
