What the venue publishes
Adult Rental hourly rate (Butterfly Landing and surrounding areas): Weekdays (Monday-Friday) Members $75/hour, Non-members $100/hour; Weekends (Saturday-Sunday) Members $100/hour, Non-members $125/hour. The Roots and Shoots area (includes circle, picnic tables, pavilion) is $110/hour for an adult rental. Reservations require at least 30 days advance notice.
The source publishes a range of $75 to $125, so which end applies depends on the options the source lists.
These are general facility/hourly rental rates, not a dedicated wedding ceremony package; a couple would book enough hours to cover their ceremony. A separate wedding application process exists through Pinellas County for the gardens' larger event spaces, but no dedicated wedding price is published there.

The online EMarriage Application is a prerequisite and must be completed before the license is issued; it can also be filled out on a public terminal in the office. The application sits in the Clerk's queue for only 30 days, so both parties must appear within that window. Services are offered at the Clearwater Courthouse, the St. Petersburg Branch at 545 First Avenue North, and the North County Branch. Both parties must sign the Statement of Family Law Handbook. One certified copy of the recorded license is free; additional copies are $3.00 each. The Clerk's office runs an annual Halloween themed ceremony event it calls Scare-amonies.
