About Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens
Set on 12 acres within an Olmsted-designed park system, the gardens include outdoor gardens, an arboretum, and a historic conservatory. Opened in 1900, the conservatory contains 12 interconnected greenhouses. Wedding ceremonies are offered indoors in the conservatory or outdoors in the courtyard, with ceremony seating for up to 120. Receptions can be held in the 20,000-square-foot conservatory, which is privately reserved for the event; receptions and evening rentals seat up to 120, with larger gatherings possible without seating. The Canopy, available for booking and scheduled to open in early 2027, has two event rooms with views of South Park: the Palm Room seats up to 180, the Orchid Room seats 100, and both rooms together accommodate up to 250. Wedding services include an event coordinator and event-day staff, private use, photography time in the gardens, tables and chairs for up to 120 with setup and breakdown, and a choice of exclusive catering partners or other vendors. Courtyard events have indoor backup space for inclement weather. Free parking, accessible spaces, and a passenger drop-off zone are available; most conservatory areas and restrooms are accessible, though some areas may be challenging for guests with mobility disabilities.
