Garden infrastructure
Bookings are for exclusive use of a designated wedding ceremony site within the Australian Botanic Garden and do not include any garden infrastructure, such as BBQs, tables, benches or playgrounds located at or near the site. Wedding ceremonies must not interfere with the general use of public facilities.
Photography
Your ceremony booking includes use of your ceremony location for photos (this must be within your 2 hour booking time) as well as use of other garden locations for photos, but only if your other location choices are available on the day and you cannot stay in any location longer than 30 mintues.
Rehearsals
Ceremony bookings allows for the hirer to have one (1) hour of rehearsal time in the ceremony location leading up to the wedding. This hour must be booked with the venue coordinator and can only take place prior to 10am or after 4pm on the rehearsal date and booking is completely subject to availability.
Platinum Package Wet Weather/Cancellation
In the case of wet weather or cancellation of the Platinum Package any later than 12pm (midday) the day before the ceremony, the hirer will receive a 50% refund on the hire cost of the package. For cancellations of the package any later than this time frame, NO refund will be given.
If there are any extreme weather events on the day of your ceremony, the Garden reserves the right to cancel your Platinum Package booking and a full refund will be provided.
