Pavilion Layouts

February 14, 2024
Our Pavilion is designed to flex with your vision, not box it in. This page offers a collection of thoughtfully designed floor plans to help you imagine how your celebration might flow, whether you’re dreaming of long communal tables, an open dance floor, or something beautifully in between. These layouts are meant to inspire, not restrict. Many couples use them as a starting point, then make small adjustments to reflect their guest count, priorities, and overall vibe. Every layout shown here works seamlessly within the Pavilion and pairs naturally with the tables included in your venue rental, detailed below.
