Awarded Best of Zola
When we were touring wedding venues, it was game over for every other venue once we saw the Gardens! Right away, it's obvious that this is an amazing and dreamy property. Guests told us all night that our wedding had the most beautiful, unique venue. Of course the venue is beautiful, but the team we worked with was just as great. Every employee we interacted with made us feel supported in the wedding planning process and just showered with love and joy on our big day. Throughout the planning process, the team answered all sorts of questions I had beyond the standard questions and they were always so sweet, thoughtful, and helpful. I so deeply appreciated that the staff always listened to our ideas and made us feel welcome. The people were kind, the food was delicious, the drinks were awesome, the scenery was awesome- we couldn't have asked for more. Another thing we loved about this venue is that everything is on site and easy to manage- no need to rent an extra space for getting ready suites, no need to worry about a "plan b" in case of weather because the historical chapel is as GORGEOUS as the outdoor spaces. Truly, I don't think there'd be a way to have a less than stunning event here, the whole space is just phenomenal and we will stay obsessed for life.
