Choirs and other entertainers will perform from below in the wedding grotto, and the Christmas melodies will fill the Garden as guests enjoy a little shopping and a lot of fun! There’s a hayride to the top of the hill to see our 40ft decorated Cedar Christmas tree! Kids and grownups alike will love taking a stroll through the Christmas Cave (a comfortable 60 degrees!) to drop off a letter to Santa in our very special mailbox- you see, our cave is so deep, the mailbox runs right to the North Pole! And all those letters will be waiting for jolly old St. Nick after he returns home from taking pictures with our guests! - - The Garden of Dreams was created by Bill “Doc” Roston and his wife Judy over the last 19 years, and stands as a tribute to what can happen when creative vision, hard work, passion, and resplendent nature come together. Springfield locals know of Doc's work from the Springfield Botanical Gardens in Close Memorial Park, where the "Dr. Bill Roston Native Butterfly House" has been named after him. - - The Garden is nestled at the center of 288 acres of pristine Ozark land, replete with springs, waterfalls, grotto, covered bridge, spring-fed lake, and reception pavilion. The Garden is also home to Honey Branch cave, a former show-cave with a near level grade making it perfect for casual exploration. The many rare and lovely plants in the gardens and grotto make The Garden of Dreams a splendid site for weddings, corporate or church retreats, family gatherings, parties, or any special occasion. -
