Nice and Professional

We were contacted right away after reaching out, and we had an appointment on the books by the end of the call. They gave us a tour of their (beautiful) grounds, explained our options for each area, and walked us through the pricing plans. They are full service: from start to finish. They are not pricey, actually they are really well priced, especially for all they offer. Our budget is low but we are trying to figure out how to be able to work with them. We just felt really good about the whole experience.

Beautiful Hidden Gem

My husband and I held our reception at Brownstone Gardens and it could not have been an easier or more organized experience. From our very first meeting, Barbara wowed us with her professional take-charge attitude. But what really won us over was the venue itself. An absolutely gorgeous plot with several unique areas for events and pictures.

The whole experience was wonderful and though I dont plan on getting married again, lol, it would be lovely to visit again for someone else's wedding!
