A Living Garden Oasis for Romantic Wine Country Weddings
Nestled in the hills of Glen Ellen, the Sonoma Botanical Garden offers couples a wedding venue surrounded by rare plants, tranquil pathways, and sweeping valley views. Formerly Quarryhill Botanical Garden, this beloved property blends Sonoma’s natural beauty with an international collection of flora, creating an enchanting backdrop for weddings that feel vibrant, organic, and unforgettable.
A Garden Sanctuary of Beauty and Discovery
The Sonoma Botanical Garden is unlike any other venue in Wine Country. With its winding trails, koi ponds, and diverse gardens, couples are immersed in a landscape that feels both serene and inspiring. Seasonal blooms, ancient oaks, and expansive views across Sonoma Valley create endless possibilities for photographs and ceremonies. It’s a venue where nature itself becomes the décor, offering romance in every direction.
Ceremony and Reception Spaces Inspired by Nature
Couples can exchange vows on lawns framed by lush gardens, or in intimate clearings that feel private and secluded. Elopements and micro-weddings are especially magical here, with hidden corners that feel like a secret world of their own. Larger weddings flow naturally into reception spaces that can be tented or set outdoors, allowing guests to dine and dance beneath the stars, surrounded by the fragrance and color of the gardens.
A Celebration Rooted in Sonoma’s Spirit
The garden’s focus on conservation and global plant collections pairs beautifully with Wine Country’s farm-to-table ethos. Couples often bring in local caterers and vintners, curating receptions that highlight both Sonoma’s flavors and the garden’s natural abundance. The result is a celebration that feels grounded, authentic, and uniquely tied to place.
Amenities That Make Planning Seamless
Though rustic in spirit, Sonoma Botanical Garden offers amenities that make events effortless. Preparation spaces, thoughtful staff support, and flexible event areas help couples bring their vision to life. Because the venue is naturally stunning, little additional décor is needed—allowing the focus to remain on the couple, their loved ones, and the beauty of the day.
