San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden

So my mother and I just got back from a fantastic open house & tour of the San Luis Obispo Botantical Garden! It's located in San Luis Obispo, but feels miles away with its peaceful, lush garden setting. It is a great venue for a wedding, funeral, banquet, rehearsal dinner, etc. The Oak Glen Pavilion can accomodate 96 seated for a meal, and 110 for assembly seating. It can be rented for a half day (4 hours) or a full day (8am-10pm). They also have their own tables and chairs! I was too busy enjoying the complimentary appetizers and talking with Facility Manager, David Setterlund to take photos of the pavilion- but I got some of the ceremony area and garden! Take a look.....

The entrance

Plenty of room for a gift & guestbook table at the entrance!

What could be a great ceremony area

Seating for your guests plus a shade for sun coverage!


There is a special space for life celebrations and dedications..

Each little silver disc in this sculpture is in memory of a loved one. Very neat!

The short pathway from the ceremony location to the pavilion

My little lizard friend...who must be in the process of re-growing his tail. Poor guy.

So we really enjoyed our time in the gardens! For photos of the pavilion, visit the San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden's Facebook page and check out the pictures from their Harvest Dinner...that album has some great shots of the room! Please contact us if you're interested in taking a tour of the gardens with the Festive Designs crew to discuss options for holding your special event there! We'd love to share our ideas with you!
