Love
ON THE LAWN
“Love on the Lawn”
is the Garden Hotel’s
intimate wedding venue.
Located at 110 Marshland Road, the hotel is
well known for its Garden Buffet Restaurant,
GBC (Garden Bar Café) and selection of
accommodation options. But with the
addition of facilities dedicated to wedding
ceremonies, the Garden Hotel offers a venue
that covers all the bases and is ideal for
intimate weddings of up to 60 guests.
“Wedding receptions have always been
popular at the Garden Hotel, but we are
now pleased to offer a special area that can
accommodate wedding ceremonies too,” says
Margaret Wong, General Manager. “An ornate,
romantic gate opens to a private courtyard
with a manicured raised lawn surrounded by
paving, plantings and a spectacular pagoda
that was specially designed to resemble a
wedding veil”.
Beyond the courtyard is an attractive
function room with full bar facilities and
comfortable amenities for a wedding
reception. The simplicity of the area means
that a bridal couple can transform it with
their own theme, personalised with flowers,
plants, chair covers, decorations and candles
and lights to make it magical.
Catering can be created according to the
couple’s preferred style and taste. From dainty
canapés or cocktail finger food to a seated
banquet buffet complemented by a selection
of New Zealand wines as well as imported
wines, beers and spirits, Margaret and the
Wedding Team at the Garden Hotel can
design a menu to suit any budget.
On-site accommodation and various
accommodation packages also provide the
ideal comfort and convenience for the couple
and their wedding guests.
