~$750 small spaces up to ~$4.8k for the marquee rooms, venue only
depends entirely which space, couples reported ~$2-2.5k for the intimate solarium/woodland mosaic up to ~$4.5-4.8k for the orangery or a friday greenhouse, and tiny/short bookings from ~$750. flat year-round pricing. then catering (~$70pp+) and a rain backup fee stack on top
the single biggest gotcha nobody tells you: the MUSIC rules. outdoor spaces are acoustic-only (no dj, no amplified sound), amplified music is only allowed inside a building with the doors closed. one couple literally did dinner with doors open + no music, then closed the doors for the dance party. they're also strict generally, someone canceled over the caterer/beverage/getting-ready-room restrictions, and setup is only 2 hrs. parking in the cheeseman area is rough, and avoid the west/park side (techno bleed from the public park). gorgeous but rule-heavy, go in knowing that.
~$2k-$4.8k per space (venue only) + ~$70/person catering
Space-dependent. Firsthand prices from couples: Solarium/Woodland Mosaic ~$2,500-$3,500, a morning booking as low as ~$2k, the Orangery ~$4.5k, a Friday greenhouse ~$4,800. Small spaces/short blocks start ~$750. Pricing is flat year-round. In-house catering starts ~$70/person + 22% gratuity, and rain/heat backup space costs extra.
Venue only, catering is on top and runs through their in-house/approved list (Serendipity and Rocky Mountain Catering come up a lot). Many couples split ceremony here + reception elsewhere, so budget extra photo coverage. Setup is capped at 2 hours.
