Couples can hold their marriage solemnisation there
Gardens by the Bay is also collaborating with the Registry of Marriages (ROM) for the first time to allow couples to hold their solemnisation at a section of the floral display.
For the duration of the display, a pocket garden in the Flower Dome will be transformed into a rose-filled, Puglian-inspired summer wedding setting for solemnisations arranged by ROM at selected timings on weekday mornings.
When the pocket garden is not used for ROM solemnisations, it is open to the public.
First couple solemnised their marriage on Jun. 2
The Rose Romance display was officially launched on Friday (Jun. 2) morning by Minister in the Prime Minister's Office and Second Minister for Finance and National Development Indranee Rajah.
She was joined by Ambassador of Italy to Singapore and Brunei Darussalam H.E. Mario Andrea Vattani.
