Tucked away in the Woodland Gardens, the Hughes Pavilion at the Dixon is an elegant venue that can be transformed to fit any style. The large skylights and floor-to-ceiling windows of the Pavilion offer ample light and a panoramic view of the woodlands, and the surrounding patios allow your event to spill into the outdoors. Our sprawling 17 acre grounds house two garden spaces to choose from for a ceremony: the sweeping expanse of the South Lawn and the more intimate circle of the Bowlin Stage.
The Hughes Pavilion is the perfect setting for a wedding reception or rehearsal dinner, and it can accommodate up to 200 for a cocktail-style reception using both the inside and the patios, or ~80-120 seated inside (plus
~50-100 seated outside) for a sit-down/served meal. Wedding rental includes:
- Complimentary parking and a parking lot guard (valet services not offered)
- A selection of tables and chairs for use at the Pavilion, as well as setup and breakdown of those tables and chairs
- Ceremony rehearsal time (if applicable) and engagement photo time
- A Dixon manager-on-duty to help manage the venue during your event (please note, the Dixon does not provide wedding coordination services)
The Dixon is also partnered with Park+Cherry by Chef Phillip Dewayne to provide onsite catering; catering costs are separate from the venue rental fee and more information is available at http://www.dixon.org/venue-rental.
The Dixon is perfect for lovers of classic architecture, beautiful gardens, and lush woodlands, and its unique role as a garden and gallery open to the community means you can visit and enjoy the place where you said "I do!" for years to come. Please visit http://www.dixon.org/venue-rental for more information.

Sarah started at the Dixon in July 2013 in an admissions position, and moved into her current role as Venue Rental Coordinator in February 2014. She's been on both sides of the table--as bride and as vendor--having gotten engaged at the Dixon in April 2015 and married there in April 2016--so she knows the ins-and-outs of Dixon weddings from all vantage points.
