Weddings and Special Events
Lendonwood Gardens provides a stunning backdrop for weddings and other special events. We welcome the opportunity to share the Gardens at these special moments in people’s lives. At a Lendonwood wedding, the beauty of the ceremony is enhanced by gorgeous flowering plants, towering oaks, richly textured evergreens, and lovely water features.

Amenities include a gazebo surrounded by rose gardens, an open-air Japanese pavilion overlooking a koi pond, and numerous spots for memorable photographs on the special day. Open grassy areas allow space for chairs, tables, bands and dancing. Electricity is available at key locations to offer romantic lighting for evening ceremonies and facilitate food service and music. The back entrance of the Gardens is close by, offering easy access for caterers, florists, musicians and those with mobility problems. Restrooms and additional parking also are located near the back entrance.

We look forward to sharing the beauty of the Gardens on your special day. Please call Lendonwood Gardens at 918-786-2938 for more information, to reserve a date or to arrange a tour.
