Is Flo's Garden right for you?

I plan Flo's Garden weddings around an outdoor ceremony and covered barn reception. For more than 50 guests, plan a rental tent alongside the barn.

I played a wedding here in September 2026.

Flo's Garden is a working farm in Cumberland with an outdoor arch ceremony and covered barn reception. I plan separate ceremony sound and reception coverage for the barn or barn plus tent, with a rain layout agreed ahead.
