Details
Enjoy the beauty and intimacy of the State Botanical Garden’s Cecil B. Day Chapel for your special event. The space, designed to harmonize with the surrounding hardwood forest, features a welcoming interior bathed in natural light. An elaborately carved glass and mahogany entrance provides the picture-perfect gateway to a truly memorable experience. Outstanding acoustics accompany the chapel’s visual beauty. The reception hall downstairs and its dining area extends onto a gorgeous patio. The chapel was given graciously to the garden by the family of Cecil B. Day. We hope it will come to mean as much to you as it does to them.
The Day Chapel is available in two rental packages: Sanctuary or Sanctuary with Reception Hall. The Sanctuary package includes use of the 130-seat upper level and access to dressing rooms for the bride and groom on the lower level. The Sanctuary with Reception Hall package offers access to the entire space and all its furnishings. This includes use of the fully equipped catering kitchen, tables and chairs, the outside patio and the reception hall, which is large enough for 65 guests seated or 130 guests gathered.
