Weddings and Receptions

Weddings and Receptions

Your wedding symbolizes and celebrates the mental, emotional, spiritual and physical union between you and your partner. It is an unforgettable experience not only for yourselves but also for everyone involved because it is an expression of your uniqueness and a celebration of love in its wider meaning. Your guests and wedding party are not just mere observers but, according to many ancient traditions, they play a very active role as witnesses, and are called to hold and support your holy union forever.

Your wedding and reception day is probably the biggest and most important day you'll ever plan. We welcome you to Nature’s Song and promise to work diligently with you to make your wedding and/or reception extraordinary. We will work closely with your wedding planner in every way.

Worried about the weather and need a wedding tent? Want to dance but need a dance floor? We work with many of the town’s rental companies and find them very amenable to any request. So if you need anything from chairs, tables, linens and dishes to tents, heaters and dance floors, we can help you get them.

The food becomes a symbol for your intent of giving nourishment to each other and to your guests. Having a special wedding cake made? Want to have a fantastic meal to go with it? We also work with many caterers in the area and can make recommendations based upon our experiences with them. Tell us what you may need or like. Just give us a call!

Want to share the history of your families and your relationship? If you would like to show family photos or collages, we offer a combination VCR and DVD player with TV (not connected to cable), and a great stereo system that plays tapes or CD’s. We also have a large slide-projector screen. If you are doing Power Point presentations or wish to connect your computer to the TV, you will need your own cable since all computers are different.

Want to end the day with just relaxing around a fire, with smores and stories? We offer two fire pits, and can supply the firewood. We also have a ten-foot, screened-in octagon gazebo down by the stream as a wonderful gathering spot. Deer have been known to walk by and check us out, with the hooting owls as a backdrop.
