Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens

What To Know Before Booking

What To Know Before Booking

Everything here is designed to keep things simple, smooth & stress-free — for you and for the Gardens.


A Naturally Beautiful Hills Setting

Mount Lofty Botanic Garden is one of the easiest ways to have a beautiful wedding in the Adelaide Hills.

Open, relaxed garden setting
Multiple ceremony locations across the Gardens
Cool-climate landscapes, seasonal colour & wide open space
👉 It already looks incredible, so you don’t need to overdo anything


Simple Timing

Your ceremony includes a 2 hour window

Covers setup, ceremony & photos
Extra time can be added if needed
👉 We guide you so everything flows without pressure


What’s Already Included (No Surprises)

When you book through KISS:

Site hire fees are included
Photography permits are included
Setup & pack down handled
👉 It’s all taken care of upfront — no hidden extras later


Keeping It Clean & Natural (Garden Guidelines)

To protect the space and keep everything looking beautiful:

No confetti, petals, rice or balloons
Nothing can be attached to trees or structures
Styling must be freestanding (no pegs or stakes in the ground)
👉 Simple setups work best here anyway


Food & Drinks

Food & drinks (including alcohol) are managed through the venue

This keeps everything compliant & easy on the day
👉 If you’d like to celebrate after, we can guide you through options


Music & Atmosphere

Relaxed, low-volume music works perfectly

Amplified or loud music requires prior approval
👉 The setting already does most of the work


Access & Setup

No vehicles inside the Gardens

Everything is brought in by hand or trolley
Our team & suppliers handle this for you
👉 Another reason we keep things simple


Weather (Easy Approach)

Outdoor setting means we stay flexible

Umbrellas or cover can be added if needed
👉 We adjust the plan, not the experience


Booking Made Easy

Dates can be held while you decide

Lock it in when you’re ready
👉 No pressure, just clarity


The KISS Way This Works Best

This space is perfect if:

You want something simple & real
You don’t want to over-plan everything
You want a beautiful Hills setting without the stress
👉 That’s exactly what this location is made for


If this feels like you, it’s here

You don’t need a big wedding to make this meaningful.

If you’re ready to keep it simple, we’ll guide you through it.
