From the reviews
2025 China Lights review: I took my children here and we all were intrigued by the amount of lights and designs placed so over. the price was about 30$ per person and came with parking and a shuttle to the event space. upon arrival you walk to the ticket area and through a beautiful corridor.
Getting married at Boerner Botanical Gardens
Boerner Botanical Gardens comes up for weddings, going by their listing and couples’ reviews. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
