There is a private events room that stays on-theme with the Ballroom, giving you large windows that invite in the breathtaking views. The walls are neutral so you can add your own decorations without fear of it clashing.
For an outdoor wedding, you can use the veranda outside the Ballroom. This will give you breathtaking views while giving your party lots of shade. If you would prefer something on the ground, speak to the venue, and they’ll help you find the perfect space.
Most receptions are held inside the Ballroom. This stunning room gives you plenty of space to mingle with your guests before it’s time to head over to the dance floor. The veranda serves as a great space to go out and catch your breath before heading back inside. For a fully outdoor reception, you can use the veranda for your dinner space.
