Located on the corner of Morton Avenue and South Pearl Street in Clayton, NJ 08312
From the moment we parked in the driveway, we knew it was going to be a beautiful day! The atmosphere captured us in a way we didn’t expect. We will replay the memories in our minds for years to come. We needed two witnesses, Officiant Costello provided them for us, they were a couple married for many years so, that touch made our day even more special! Mrs. Costello was so nice to us and we loved the vows she picked to recite to us, we requested a copy. Once Upon A Garden has a magical and meaningful feel to it! We were immediately at ease and remained as such through out our entire wedding experience! It was one of the best hours of our life! We are so blessed to have picked the perfect venue for two! Everywhere you looked was a beautiful setting, perfect for a couple in love! A million thanks to Officiant Costello, Once Upon A Garden is a divine venue for any magical event!

Vow renewal
Kathy &Phill are amazing people! I would recommend them and their garden to everyone! I had the best day of my life at their home and I can not thank them both enough for being so accommodating! They raise the bar of excellence with their hospitality and professionalism, but they make you feel like family in the mean time. Their garden is so beautiful and unique. There is nothing else like it in the area. I hope to have many more ceremonies their in the future!(I have daughters)

You are so sweet! Thank you for the photos. We definitely look forward to having you here for more happy occasions!
Reverend Kathy is unique... she's a truly caring, compassionate, funny lady. You will know within minutes of meeting her that she CARES about you and about your wedding ceremony, and that she will do the best job for you that she can -- to make sure that your wedding ceremony is not only how you pictured it in your mind, but better.
Hiring Reverend Kathy isn't so much about hiring someone to speak some words, but about making a new friend. And I haven't even touched on all of the many options that she offers to make your wedding ceremony unique and beautiful!
If you are in Southern New Jersey, there is no one whom you should contact as regards your wedding ceremony except for Reverend Kathy. :-)

Yet another fastastic vendor I had the pleasure of meeting. There's absolutely no doubt in my mind of how impressed you will be when you choose to have Costello Wedding Ceremonies perform your ceremony. It will truly be one of a kind. I'm happy to refer my clients to Kathy.
