Weddings
We welcome ceremonies and receptions year-round for everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale celebrations.
For your ceremony, we offer both indoor gallery and outdoor locations. Be sure to ask about which exhibitions will be on view in our galleries at the time of your event. Coordinating décor and floral arrangements to the artwork provides a stunning and unique environment. And don’t worry about the weather; we’ll always have an indoor backup location for you in case of inclement conditions!
Tucked among winding gardens, hidden pathways, and striking sculptures, weddings here unfold with a sense of wonder. Twilight receptions on the terrace overlooking the pond, cocktails in the lounge, first dances in the pavilion... Rat’s Restaurant offers a setting where art, nature, and romance come together in a way that feels almost dreamlike. Inspired by each couple’s story, and each client's vision, our team creates immersive culinary experiences with refined hospitality, beautiful detail, and a touch of magic woven into every moment.

"A million thanks for all of your help each step of the way…The reception was absolutely FANTASTIC! So many of our guests commented that the food surpassed other weddings they had attended, and there was plenty for everyone. And we totally agree! The appetizers were plentiful and all of the food was delicious! The entire reception, from start to finish, was perfect, without a single glitch. There was nothing we needed to adjust. The room was gorgeous, the arrangement was awesome, the linens and place settings were wonderful. We really loved the Monet plates!

"The bridal shower was a success! A good time was had by all and my daughter felt so loved! Several women from the groom’s side are still telling my daughter that it was the best, most beautiful shower that they have ever been to! And that was even on a day without the sun shining! I was very happy with The Pavilion."
