Secret Garden vibe - look no further!

We had an amazing experience hosting our wedding at this beautiful venue in August. We could not have asked for a more amazing, well-kept venue that is obviously very well-loved and cared for by the owners. Lisa was very communicative leading up to our wedding and answered all my millions of questions, making me feel at ease throughout the whole process. We particularly picked this venue because of its calming, elegant ambiance, and our guests are still raving about it! It has almost a "secret garden" feel and different pockets of areas that you could do so much with. I instantly fell in love with this place and I'm sure you will too!

Amazing!

This venue is amazing! We had our wedding here and the venue is absolutely incredible! There is beauty everywhere and our guests absolutely loved it. They still tell us how much they loved the venue and how beautiful it was. The owner Lisa and her husband were so kind to us and helped us in so many ways. They helped answer all of our questions and gave us recommendations as well. Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be and we couldn't have done it without Gala Events! Thank you so much for everything and making our dream wedding come true!

An excellent expericine with an excellent venue!

My name is Ty "DJ Cession" Mosley with CessionNation, LLC, and we just finished back-to-back weddings at GALA Events and Venue at Sky Valley Gardens.
This is very beautiful and open venue to have your wedding at.
A perfect layout for both the ceremony and reception.
As a vendor myself, Lisa and her the staff were great and easy to work due to their excellent communication and collaboration from start to finish for both events.

I would highly recommend this venue to any bride and groom to be!

Stunning Venue at an Amazing Price

The venue we booked and the venue we were married at looked like 2 different places thanks to Lisa. She has made Sky Valley gardens literally the most beautiful place and it kept getting better every time we went to check on things. Everything Lisa has done to upgrade the venue was done with lots of love and it shows. I could not have been more happy with how my wedding looked. It was stunning. Lisa was a pleasure to work with as well. She answered all of our questions promptly and was flexible when needed. She was as kind as she was professional. I truly cannot say enough good things about the venue and Lisa. I would recommend this venue to anyone for any special event they want to put on. And it was an amazing price too!

Awesome venue...even in the rain!

Lisa was great to work with and the venue is incredible. I would definitely use Gala events again and highly recommend them.
We used Gala for my daughters wedding, we wanted to have the ceremony outside but it rained so Lisa was able to have us set up under the tent in no time. The ceremony was just as beautiful!
We loved the different options that we could have used due to the layout of the venue. Honestly, I would make up a reason to have an event just to use Gala again, absolutely amazing!!

Best day ever!

Lisa and Joe were absolutely amazing. The grounds of the venue are breath taking. Beautifully manicured and well taken care of. There are fountains around every corner and a hedge maze for the kiddos. Multiple places for ceremonies, reception and partying. The bridal cottages are very pretty and were the perfect place for hair and makeup. Lisa and Joe were so accommodating and made our day seamless. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone. There isn't enough time for me to describe all of the beautiful aspects of this venue. We loved our day. 💕

Best Day Ever

Truly special day. Lisa and her husband made sure everything ran smoothly on the big day, and so joined us for this journey, including the rehearsal dinner, several planning visits, and lastly our beautiful wedding. Lisa truly cares, is approachable, and has a fantastic eye and understands weddings - our 80 guests enjoyed the flow of the venue from the indoor space, elegant greenhouse, fountain room, and gardens. We were able to have what I wanted, a wedding and reception all in one at the venue. Unique vibes... and that carried on into our day, from the local bakery snacks Lisa shared with us, the real outdoor fireplace, lounge furniture, lighted walkway, and memorable bar setup. The pictures turned out well, as the natural light just pours into the greenhouse where we had our ceremony. We had a mix of wind, showers, and sun and we were not worried because this place could handle it. This is a no stress venue with high impact, everyone entertained by the natural scene, and romanced by the decor. I brought my phone and plugged into a streaming playlist. Monroe isn't too far from Seattle, and many vendors are willing to provide help. This is 5 stars all the way. Thank you!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
