I had my rehearsal dinner and ceremony at the Edith J. Carrier Arboretum and it was absolutely beautiful. Gail at the Arboretum was very knowledgeable and great to work with. Any time I had a question she was always quick to respond. The Arboretum is carefully taken care of and the lawn, flowers, and scenery was just absolutely beautiful on my wedding day.

I graduated from James Madison University, so the arboretum was the perfect place for me to marry. I had a small wedding so we chose to overlook the pond and the huge weeping willow tree. Gail from the arboretum was a pleasure to work with and was very helpful in preparing for the ceremony. She even ensured that new sod was laid down so we'd have beautiful green grass the day of the wedding. You'll have a picture perfect location (especially if you choose to be married later in the Spring).
