Step into your dream wedding setting at our exclusive 2026 Open Day, showcasing how events at the Botanics are immersive by nature.
Choose either a guided tour with one of our wedding specialists, or a self-guided exploration. For either option, begin your visit with a glass of fizz and hand-crafted canapes. Explore the breath-taking John Muir Grove, styled for a woodland ceremony beneath the trees and, whether you're newly engaged or refining your plans, discover all the possibilities for your celebration.
Highlights of the day include:
John Muir Grove – A serene woodland ceremony setup beneath the trees, perfect for couples seeking a natural, outdoor setting.
Demo Kitchen – A warm and creative space ideal for pre-wedding gatherings like family cooking classes or relaxed get-togethers with a personal chef.
Patrick Geddes Room – A charming venue for rehearsal dinners full of character and flexibility.
John Hope Gateway – Spacious, light-filled spaces with stunning views, perfect for larger wedding parties and elegant receptions.
Caledonian Hall – The showstopper. A grand and timeless space with classical architecture and botanical surroundings, ideal for unforgettable celebrations.
