About The Camellia Gardens Wedding Venue
Camellia Gardens was purchased in 1987, originally designed to be a family home and farmstead. It served as a nursery and garden center for a while but eventually found its purpose as an event venue instead. After hosting weddings, parties, and events on their property for years, the owners decided to reimagine Camellia Gardens so that other couples could utilize the beautiful grounds for their own weddings full of happy memories.
Today, Camellia Gardens offers a variety of outdoor spaces for romantic ceremonies and elegant but lively celebrations. Their events team helps you bring your dream wedding to life with the stunning grounds and features of Camellia Gardens as your venue.
Details of the Grounds
There are several ways to envision your wedding at Camellia Gardens, though all their spaces are outdoors.
The Pergola Lawn and the Lake are perfect for a ceremony for up to 150 guests, with views overlooking the property’s serene lake. A stately white pergola creates the perfect focal point for a romantic vow exchange, surrounded by rolling green lawns and beautiful trees.
The Tent provides shelter for guests in case of rain, harsh sun, or other unexpected weather. Spanning over 3100 square feet, there is room for up to 150 guests for a seated reception, your dance floor, and DJ! Don’t let weather concerns keep you from the garden wedding of your dreams.
