Your Dream Day
Framed by Nature, Guided by Heart
At Songbird Retreat, we believe love deserves a setting as natural and beautiful as the story it tells.
Nestled among lush gardens, ponds and a babbling stream, native trees, elegant roses, and purposefully designed ceremony spaces, Songbird offers a setting that speaks softly—yet holds every detail with care. Whether you imagine vows by the lily pond, a marquee celebration on the Grand Lawn, or an intimate garden party on the Cocktail Lawn, your day unfolds as a true reflection of you.
We host only a limited number of weddings each year, giving every couple the time, space, and support to make it truly their own.
