Iridescent Love
The Grounds has created the ultimate lovers' lane, complete with cascading bubbles and a kissing booth.
Overview
If you're angling for a smooch with someone special this Valentine's Day, you might as well line up a spectacularly photogenic backdrop for the occasion. And we doubt you'll find any quite as OTT as the one that awaits at The Grounds of Alexandria. The lush greenery-filled venue is turning the charm up to 100 for lovers this romance season, unveiling a shimmery laneway installation that's sure to sweep just about anyone off their feet.
Sticking around for only a limited time, it's decked out in a rainbow of iridescent hues and comes complete with a neon-lit kissing booth to spark that ol' romantic spirit. But the real theatre happens at 9am and 11am each day, when a bunch of glistening bubbles are sent cascading over the entire space. Brownie points for aesthetics, right there.
As usual, The Grounds is whipping up a couple of themed treats to match this latest installation and you'll be pleased to know they're rocking as much unicorn-hued sass as the laneway itself. Amp up the romance with a two-person buttercream-topped lemon sponge cake from the cafe, or opt for a couple of the Potting Shed's Make Me Blush cocktails: a glittery blend of gin, Chambord, raspberry and lime, finished with a crown of fairy floss.
