Brides to feature P. Allen Smith

The winter 2013 issue of Brides magazine included the editors’ list of top wedding ceremony and reception locations. P. Allen Smith’s picturesque Garden Home was chosen as a premier venue for the South.

As a garden, design and home expert, weddings are a natural fit for P. Allen Smith, his team and the Garden Home setting. “It’s an honor to be included with this elite group of venues and we are thrilled to now offer the property as a perfect choice for brides who want a naturally elegant setting for their big day,” noted P. Allen Smith.

Touted by Brides as “an elegant tableau of orchards, manicured terraces and vegetable gardens,” the Garden Home is a popular destination for tourists from across the country and has been visited by guests from 41 states. Located just west of Little Rock along the banks of the Arkansas River, the idyllic setting is quickly becoming a popular place to exchange vows and is available for weddings of all sizes. Bridal parties may choose the ceremony and reception location from the property’s numerous options, including a romantic and intimately set English rose garden, a sprawling grass lawn, a fountain-terraced garden or the East rose lawn.

The venue offers full-service catering, bar service and event staff. On-site floral design and a stylist are available, as well as a wedding coordinator. Post-ceremony activities may include a horse-drawn carriage ride, fireworks, a bonfire, hayrides or dinner and dancing in the temperature-controlled barn.

A bridal fair with additional info about local vendors will be held January 20, at the Statehouse Convention Center in Little Rock. Learn more about this event at www.arkansasbridalcommunity.com.
