A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review

• Outdoor weddings are charming in the Memorial Garden. It’s a beautiful courtyard filled with stone sculptures and pebbled walkways that’s well suited for everything from exchanging vows to sipping cocktails.
• Intimate gatherings feel right at home in the Ballantine House, with its oak paneling, rich forest-green carpet and elegant lighting.
