Wedding Ceremonies |
You can hold your wedding ceremony on the lawn at Solitary. It removes much of the fuss regarding the use of two venues, and you won’t find a view much better than ours. Champagne and hors d’oeuvres can then be served on the lawn immediately following the ceremony…..so your guests are being looked after while you take advantage of the spectacular views for your wedding photographs. |
