4:30 pm - 10:00 pm
Please plan to arrive for our wedding between 4:30 - 4:55 pm at the Historic entrance (see the Gallery section for location of this entrance). The ceremony starts promptly at 5:00 pm. Please Note--the Marjorie McNeely Conservatory Sunken Garden will close to the Public at 4:30 pm, so if you arrive for our wedding early, you will be asked to exit the building. During our wedding ceremony, most guests will stand as there is limited seating. However, there will be 10 chairs available for those who wish to sit during our ceremony. Due to the delicate nature of the gardens, all guests must remain on the paths at all times. After our wedding ceremony, guests will walk inside the Conservatory from the Sunken Garden over to the Ordway Garden/Bonsai Room for the Reception.
5:00 pm - 5:45 pm
After the wedding ceremony, we are asking guests to stay for a short time so our photographer can take a group photo of all gathered together in the Sunken Garden.
6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Once the group photo is taken in the Sunken Garden, guests will be able to walk inside the building to the Ordway Garden/Bonsai room for the Reception. On the way to the Reception, please take some time to stroll around the Palm Dome to view the beautiful palm trees and tropical flowers in this garden room. The doors to the Reception open at 6:00 pm. Appetizers and Drinks will be available at that time, with a sit down Dinner to follow. After Dinner, there will be music and much fun until 10:00 pm.
