The Horticulture Centre of the Pacific is delighted to help so many couples say “I do” in the magic and tranquility of the Gardens. We offer safe, refreshing, accessible spaces for you to celebrate your love and commitment. Your guests will arrive through an aisle of roses and pass beneath a fragrant eucalyptus tree to find their seats. As you say your vows, you may find yourselves accompanied by birdsong while the waters of our habitat conservation park sparkle in the background. The inviting red cedar beams and Pacific Northwest architecture of the Couvelier Pavilion provide a climate-controlled backup plan in case of inclement weather. Enjoy a stroll through our nine acres of award-winning gardens (with your photographer, of course!) before joining your loved ones to eat, drink and be married under the inviting red cedar beams of our Couvelier Pavilion (or at one of our recommended nearby reception venues).
