How much does it cost?
Prices for weddings start at $1200. The venue offers packages and a la carte options for weddings, corporate events, and more. Wedding packages are priced based on the details of the day so it is best to call them to get an accurate quote.
How many guests do they take?
The Harmony Hall is about 5000 square feet and can take up to 200 people standing and about 100 with tables and chairs. Pretty ideal for a medium sized wedding. The Glass Garden Room is about the same size and can fit a similar amount of folks. The New Orleans Courtyard is the newest additions to the venue and is wonderful for cocktail hours and smaller gatherings.
Wedding packages and what's included
The Gardens at Harmony offer both one and two day rentals for weddings. This is amazing as multi-day events have been trending for the past few years as brides and grooms want to spend as much time with their guests as possible, especially when many are coming in from out of state.
Both packages include use of both the bridal suite and the groom’s room, the Harmony Hall, The Glass Garden Room, the outdoor patio and the courtyard. In addition, couples will have access to 200 white chairs along with round and rectangular tables and linens.
The best season for a wedding
This is one of the best things about The Gardens at Harmony. It really doesn’t matter what season you choose to have your wedding, they’re covered for everything! Most people will say thought that spring and fall are the best seasons as that’s when temperatures are mildest and couples can spend the most amount of time outdoors. But there is no reason why you could have an awesome party there in the middle of January or July.
