Fairytale Wedding Venue

Walking through the twisting garden paths truly feels like you're in a fairytale. Pictures on their site don't do a justice; it truly takes your breath away. Our wedding was a dream.

Besides the aesthetics, the staff was very easy to work with and were upfront with all the costs. I recommend renting the bridal cottage for HMU and using recommended vendors.

As for flow: After walking through the entrance with white peacocks, they have welcome drinks then go to the ceremony site. After the ceremony, they have tray passed appetizers and cocktails to avoid lines. They also set aside 2 trays for the wedding party while we took pictures. After cocktail hour, everyone goes to the reception area for dinner and the party! Their staff ensured it was a seamless day and we got fed plenty!

The dream garden setting for any wedding.

We picked Eden Gardens as our wedding venue because we marveled at the lush, beautiful foliage and assortment of plants in the garden. The atmosphere was quiet and peaceful, and we felt transported to a new world as we toured the venue. The outdoor venue was preferable in consideration of our guests’ health and safety due to the COVID-19 pandemic. There are paved pathways that made it easy for us and our guests to navigate from the ceremony to the pavilion where the cocktail hour was held, and to the outdoor amphitheater for the reception. We rented the onsite bridal cottage for the bridal party to get ready on the wedding day, and the remodeled cottage included a beauty room for the hair and makeup team to work in. The venue was a beautiful setting for our wedding photos, and our guests gave us overwhelming positive reviews about how breathtaking the garden was.

Excellent. Best wedding ever!

We had our wedding here and we are so happy with our choice! This was the first venue my husband and I looked at after looking at several venues and we already knew this was the one. All the greenery, peacocks, water fountains - everything is amazing. Our guests all complimented on how beautiful our venue was. Kay was wonderful and always got back to us promptly.

We had our ceremony and reception here in April 2021 and the weather was perfect. If there is any issues with the weather they do have an outdoor pavillion that could be used as an alternative.

The venue caterer is Command Performance. Our guests all LOVED the food - and Jesus was very easy to work with.

Hidden Gem in the city

I have been to numerous weddings and this venue surpassed my expectations. They were very professional and accommodating. Sultana was our day of wedding coordinator and truly she went above and beyond her call of duty. Everything was handled. Things I thought I had to do nope she handled it. It truly was amazing that I was able to enjoy my daughters wedding without having to worry about all the little details. The food is amazing here also and seriously I wish I could come here everyday for a walk because of how beautiful this place is.

Most beautiful venue around!

Eden Gardens is absolutely magical. My (now) husband and I quirky, off-beat kind of people and we were looking for a venue that would match. Eden Gardens not only met our expectations, it smashed them. It felt like getting married in the secret garden! Everywhere you look, there are intricate details, beautiful flowers and greenery, and spectacular views. Kay was great to work with and really helped with breaking things down and making it simple. Thank you, Eden Gardens, for being our dream venue!

Eden Gardens is beautiful!

Eden Gardens is a really unique and beautiful venue. We were really blown away that such a lush and green place existed in such a hot and often dry area.

The layout can be a bit confusing, but it's essentially one giant circle that gives you a lot of different options for the cocktail hour and reception. As the sun begins to set, you get some beautiful light that filters through the trees for great photos.

Another reason we picked this place over some other nearby venues is that they have a large gazebo that can be a good emergency option if you get some rain on the day of. We were fortunate to not have that issue, but it was a close call because it drizzled the morning of!

Absolutely stunning and flawless

Miss Kay is phenomenal and Jesus with catering was just so patient. Their food was excellent and I have been to weddings where the food was so so. Everyone went back for seconds. The ceremony was flawless and the venue at night is just breathtaking. I can’t begin to tell you how much my husband and I enjoyed it. Our guests were in awe and I was so happy no one had to drive to a new location after the ceremony. It’s a fairy tale oasis, and if you want to save on flowers I highly encourage it. If you haven’t booked a wedding coordinator, soltana was amazing and works with this venue often. She’s from velvet events, and handled my life that day. I could not Dream of a more perfect venue. Oh they also have a house on site to rent. Perfect for like 15 people to get ready.

Absolutely MAGICAL Venue, Food, and Service!

Eden Gardens and their entire staff is straight-up MAGICAL.

When we were deciding on Venues for our wedding, we made the mistake of viewing Eden Gardens as one of our first options, and it RUINED every other venue for us :/ We must have looked at over a dozen other venues, and none of them even came close to being as perfect as Eden Gardens.

The Venue itself is so beautiful that my wife and I took several trips there just to walk the grounds and savor the amazing sights and beautiful music. From the view of the pond, the twinkle-lights, the lush greenery, and the sounds of peacocks, it is Heaven on Earth. They even have some cute little hidden areas off-the-beaten-path, which we used for a scavenger hunt during cocktail hour. The Ceremony and reception sight were both spectacular and intimate, and it made our wedding feel like a fairytale, without being opulent.

Eden Gardens also has a partnership with Command Performance Catering (CPC), so you don’t have to worry about hiring a separate company for chairs, tables, linens, or food. And we could not believe the level of choice, quality, and service that we received from CPC. Melanie was very helpful when it came time for us to decide on linens, and gave us a lot of useful input regarding food options paired well together. And the food is delicious. Many of our guests complimented the food at the wedding, and my wife and I daydream about the day when CPC opens up an actual restaurant to eat at – Their food is THAT GOOD.

But the divine venue and incredible food aside, the best part about Eden Gardens is the service from their team. Kay was very helpful with showing us around the grounds, giving us advice, and helping us choose a date for our wedding. Soltana was AMAZING when it came down to the planning process, and she guided us through the entire planning process step-by-step, to make sure that everything was thought of. And there were a LOT of things that my wife and I did not think about (It was our first wedding), and Soltana made sure that everything was accounted for. I would definitely recommend paying a little extra to hire her as your day-of coordinator. She even helped us set up a scavenger hunt!

And the day of the wedding the entire staff was wonderful. They guided us through every part of the wedding, and made sure that my wife and I could focus on enjoying our time, while they made sure that everything ran smoothly. They even boxed up the leftover food for us! :D

Our Wedding was absolutely magical, and the venue, staff, and food at Eden Gardens were responsible for a very large part of that. Thank you SO MUCH!!!

This was the venue of all venues. Feels like you're in the perfect paradise! The compliments are still rolling in.
Kay was so professional, and helpful in referring vendors to us. It is also a great bang for your buck. The property is gorgeous and makes for the perfect garden wedding. Only one thing we were disappointed in was the volume level of the music. It was pretty quiet and we were not allowed to make it any louder.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
