Ceremony Sites & Gorgeous Backdrops We have a couple of ceremony sites to choose from depending on the number of guests attending. The Emerald Ceremony site is close to the parking area and Emerald Hall. For larger weddings, larger than 30 guests, this is the best location. Our other site is Lavender Ceremony site, the seating space is limited so we typically hold our elopements and smaller weddings at this site. * Our 160 acre retreat has many beautiful backdrops... For catering, bartending, photography, blooms, and wedding planners we are happy to provide you with list of some of the local vendors that we have worked with in the past.
