Wedding Ceremonies
Choose from three stunning garden locations for your wedding ceremony at The Dawes Arboretum. The Japanese Garden offers peaceful reflections of trees on the water. Our newest wedding garden, Bertie’s Garden, is just west of the Daweswood House. A beautiful, historic flower garden overlooking the pond. The All Seasons Garden features a beautiful lawn space surrounded by majestic trees and flower gardens.
Each ceremony site includes two hours in the garden for the ceremony and photographs, an Arboretum liaison, an hour rehearsal the evening before and wedding chairs.
