WEDDING GUIDELINES
Wedding bookings should be made through your chosen wedding service/coordinator, who will schedule your wedding
with ourselves.  If you have decided to take care of all your own wedding arrangements and are purely renting our
venue, then we will draw up a Wedding Agreement, and you will deal directly with us.

Wedding parties are limited to
no more than 100 guests, owing to availability of parking.    For parties of 60 - 100
guests, car pool as much as possible!
 One person per car should definitely be avoided, so please advise guests ahead of
time. For any guest who has difficulty in walking, or for anyone carrying a lot of equipment, such as musicians or
photographers, then we recommend they park on the rough grassed area to the
right of the driveway as they enter,
which
will be closer to the gardens.

PLEASE MAKE SURE EVERYONE HAS GOOD DIRECTIONS.

Bride's changing facility is for the bride only ( although bridesmaids/attendants and the "Moms" may of course be there
 if the brides wishes it).  We ask that the remaining wedding party/guests all arrive dressed and ready. Bride may drive
right up to the building and park alongside.

Rosewood Gardens  provides a smoke free environment and we ask that everyone respect this. However, for the benefit
of our guests, we have designated the lower gravelled parking area only (not the driveway) as an area for smoking.  

No hard liquor is permitted on the premises.   Wine/champagne for toasting at receptions is O.K.   Bottles, cans and
plastic drinking cups must be safely disposed of and not left around.

Restrooms are located on the lower deck area.

Couples should stay within their designated time at the Gardens.  We ask that no one arrive any earlier than
one hour
before
 the scheduled ceremony, unless prior arrangements have been made.  For guests (other than the immediate
wedding party) it is best not to arrive any earlier than 30 minutes prior to the ceremony.

Especially on hot days, we do permit soft drinks and bottled water in the garden area, however, we do expect all guests
to dispose of their trash prior to leaving. Garbage receptacles are located in the car park area, lower deck area and in
the area leading into the Wine & Roses Garden.  

Flower petals can look very attractive when scattered
along the ailseway, but please use fresh or freeze dried, and not
silk.  Ailse runners are not permitted as they may cause guests to slip or trip.

If electricity is required for music, please notify us ahead of time, so that we can ensure it is laid on and ready.

For all guests, especially children, we do ask that you stay on the recognized paths, walkways and lawned areas and that
the property be respected at all times.
