Denver Botanic Gardens wedding photographer

Denver Botanic Gardens is one of Denver’s most iconic wedding venues, and I love documenting weddings here with a candid, emotional, storytelling approach.

Picture this: a small wedding celebration in the Solarium at a botanical gardens wedding venue, with an intimate dinner that's as relaxed as can be. The Solarium, with its lush greenery and tranquil ambiance, sets the perfect stage for a cozy and memorable gathering. Imagine being surrounded by nature's beauty as you and your loved ones sit down to a delicious feast. The casual atmosphere allows for genuine conversations, heartfelt toasts, and lots of laughter. It's all about creating connections and savoring the moment. As the sun sets and casts a warm glow through the windows, you'll feel the love and joy fill the air. This dinner in the Solarium will be an unforgettable experience, where nature, good company, and delicious food come together to celebrate your special day.

Solarium & Woodland Mosaic: Things to Know Before Booking at Denver Botanic Gardens

  • You won’t have the entire gardens to yourself. The gardens stay open to the public until early evening, so you may see guests walking on nearby paths.

  • Peak blooms usually don’t happen until May, so early-season weddings may have less color outdoors.

  • The onsite getting-ready rooms are functional but not pretty; some couples book an Airbnb or hotel suite instead.

  • Music and sound have limits, especially for outdoor events or evening timelines.

  • Catering must come from the venue’s approved list, so food choices are curated rather than fully flexible.

  • Tables, chairs, and setup items often need to be rented separately. Whoever is moving this equipment will have a long journey from their vehicle and should plan accordingly.
