A stone wall and matching stage, complete with crisp white pillars, set the backdrop for every Pavilion at Sandy Pines wedding. A sweeping lawn flows from the stage, allowing plenty of space for guest seating and an aisle runner. Not much décor is needed due to the well- manicured gardens and lawn, but the stone wall and pillars are a lovely canvas to add any décor that the bride may want, including tulle, flowers, or candles. The stage has plenty of room for a large bridal party or for any type of unity ceremony the couple may choose. A sound system is included in the rental of this venue, allowing for microphones to be used during the ceremony. Live instruments or pre-recorded ceremony music can also be played through the sound system. The wide open space the Sandy Pines Golf Course means that wedding guests will enjoy a nice breeze to cool them as they wait for the ceremony to begin, and let’s not forget that view! No guest will tire of sitting amid such natural beauty.

Reception

There is a lovely covered, open-air outdoor space available for Sandy Pines wedding receptions.
