Capacity & Layout

The River Road and Jasmine Houses and Gardens is laid out around its historic houses and gardens, giving couples a naturally beautiful, flexible setting for the day. Couples can exchange vows and celebrate among the lush gardens and grounds, with the houses providing charming indoor spaces, so the day can flow naturally from an outdoor ceremony to a comfortable reception with a genuine weather backup. One of the houses doubles as the bridal suite, where the bride and her bridesmaids gather on the wedding day, and couples can rent extra time before the ceremony for a relaxed, stress-free morning of getting ready. That thoughtful layout, with dedicated getting-ready space and beautiful garden settings, suits both intimate weddings and larger celebrations. Having the houses, the gardens, and the bridal suite together on one property keeps the whole celebration connected and the timeline easy from getting ready through the last dance.

Amenities

The River Road and Jasmine Houses and Gardens is defined by its genuinely all-inclusive amenities. The venue takes care of the decorations, the food, and the drinks, which removes a huge amount of planning and coordination from couples’ plates and is exactly why couples describe their day as so stress-free. The food, in particular, earns rave reviews and compliments from guests. The bridal-suite house gives the wedding party plenty of space to set up hair and makeup, and couples are welcome to bring their own food and drinks to enjoy while getting ready. The historic houses and lush gardens give photographers a beautiful, layered backdrop that needs little added decor. For the entertainment, the enclosed houses and covered spaces give a wedding DJ solid structure and controlled acoustics to build sound and lighting into, so the reception stays lively within a charming, garden-set venue.

Location & Getting There
