The Ballantyne Hotel Wedding Garden

Ballantyne Hotel has long been a destination for corporate events and weddings in the Charlotte Metro area and beyond. In keeping with the hotel’s standard of excellence, management staff felt that a face lift was needed for their outdoor gathering space. Mr. Bissell commented that “there was no place for guests to go outside and read a book”. The concept was to create a setting that would be an outdoor retreat and fine garden for weddings. The garden is nestled between the hotel dining terrace and hole 18 of the golf course. Many of the plantings and architecture of the garden are crafted in the traditional Charleston Style, with arbor covered seating, neatly trimmed boxwoods hedges and pops of color throughout the season. This setting provides ample opportunities for memorable wedding photos with the expanse of manicured golf course green as a back drop.
