Almost an acre in size, The Pine Tree Garden surrounds a nearly 200-year-old Ponderosa Pine, which towers over the grounds, stretching its branches to cover your wedding party. After the ceremony, cocktails and appetizers may be served on the lawn while music provides further ambiance. During this time, the wedding party can retreat for private or group photos near The House or in The Grove. You will then continue the festivities in our Reception Facility.

A wedding in The Grove is an intimate choice, best suited for smaller groups.

Your guests can gather closely around you and, under the gentle dappled light, hear your vows up close and personal.
