Christenings in the garden
After weddings, christenings are what we host most — and they are the format this venue suits best. A typical afternoon starts around 1pm, with the family arriving at the garden after the church ceremony. Then come the welcome drinks in the shade of the palms, lunch under the covered tent, and a long afternoon that usually stretches to the end of the day without anyone noticing.
What families ask us for is simple: shared tables rather than assigned seats, room for the children to run without a road anywhere near them, and enough shade to keep the grandparents comfortable through the hottest hours. The garden answers all three at once. The paths are flat, in compacted packed earth, with no steps between the garden, the tent, the dance floor and the car park — prams and wheelchairs move without difficulty.
A christening is almost always a three-generation event. That is why the one-event-per-day rule matters more here than in any other format: there is no second group sharing the space, no deadline to clear the tables, and the music is as loud or as quiet as the family wants. The children take the garden, the adults stay at the table, and nobody has to keep watch.
We host 50 to 100 guests, from March to October. The menu is the same shared house buffet, adaptable to specific dietary requirements, and the base decoration uses the natural elements you’ll find at the weddings — roots, candelabras, eucalyptus and rosemary cut on site. One practical note worth knowing before you order the cake: for safety and environmental responsibility, we don’t allow candles, sparklers or “cold fire” at the venue.
Birthdays, communions and other celebrations
The same venue hosts milestone birthdays — 40, 50, 60, 75 — as well as communions, confirmations, anniversaries and company gatherings. The format barely changes: full venue access, one event per day, in-house catering and the same long afternoon in the garden. What changes is the pace and the table layout, which we work out with you at the visit.
Every celebration is quoted case by case, after a visit to the venue. Tell us how many you are, the date you have in mind and what you’d like to happen — we’ll come back to you within 48 working hours.
