In the spirit of great estates, the home is sheltered from the outside world by tall trees,

green hedgerows and wrought iron gates. A curving loose gravel driveway climbs to

the stately two-story home, painted a cheery yellow with green shutters and white trim.

Columns support a small dormered portico, and bushes along the perimeter add

balance and color.

Opposite the house, a wide expanse of lawn features a majestic cypress and a

California Oak, and other foliage contributes to a lush garden ambience. A private

park elevated by a decorative stone foundation is a pretty backdrop for the dance

floor, which is set with a canopy and twinkle lights. The Main Lawn has plenty of room

for an elaborate reception and a beautiful wedding ceremony.

Some brides continue the nostalgic theme by arriving in a horse-drawn carriage; but

most often the bride and her attendants prepare upstairs in a Victorian-style dressing room.

The bride descends the classic staircase in the Lindley-Scott foyer,

then steps outside and follows a walkway between the trees to meet her groom at a romantic

staging area - a pair of white picket fences with potted plants and flowers, bordering

an arched arbor and a stained-glass inset. While the bridal party and family make use

of the picturesque grounds for photos, the guests can stop and smell the roses in the

Rose Garden to the right of the house. Another ceremony option is the adjacent Rose

Lawn, you'll be all smiles if you use the fragrant blooms as a natural

backdrop for your vow-taking.

CEREMONY CAPACITY: The Garden holds up to 200 seated.
