Beautiful Gardens = Beautiful Wedding

With such a wide variety of tropical plants we had so many amazing backdrops and landscapes to choose from not just for our photos but also for our ceremony. We love looking at our photos and marveling over the incredible natural beauty of the property.

The staff was extremely helpful, responsive and accommodating. Providing us with a tour of the property, use of rooms to prepare and store our cake and assisting us on the day-of with our items and logistics.

Beautiful and affordable venues

We recently had our small wedding at the Historic Entrance of Pinecrest Gardens, and it was nothing short of magical. The venue is absolutely stunning—lush, tropical greenery surrounds the area, and the historic stone architecture gives it a timeless, romantic feel that felt perfect for an intimate celebration.
The staff at Pinecrest Gardens were incredibly helpful and attentive throughout the planning process and on the day of the event. Everything was well-organized, and they worked seamlessly with our vendors to make sure the day went smoothly.

A place to Celebrate

I celebrated my daughter's 5th birthday at Pinecrest Gardens, and it was an absolutely enchanting experience! I can't recommend this place enough—it's like stepping into a magical wonderland.

I recommend this place

Everything was great!
The only complaint I have is that there wasn't anyone to direct me and my guests to the designated area, but other than that it was good.
We had our wedding in early november, and being in FL, its still hot.
But the shade and breeze made it more bearable. And this place has plenty of shade. 10/10 would recommend this ppace for your wedding. ( we had the hammock pavilion).

Amazing Location

I was looking for an intimate location for my wedding ceremony. The Hidden Garden was the perfect location. I had the pleasure of working with Dany Valenzuela who assisted me every step of the way which made the process so much easier. Her level of professionalism was an extra added bonus. I would definitely refer anyone who's looking to have an intimate wedding ceremony to be held at Pinecrest Gardens- Hidden Garden.

A Magical Nighttime Wedding

We had an outdoor mid-Jaunary wedding that was one of the few nighttime rentals allowed each year, so we had the gardens to ourselves. It was magical. Though it rained for a couple of hours, it hardly mattered because Pinecrest Gardens is such a beautiful place and there is enough cover at the Hammock Pavilion (ceremony) and Lakeview Terrace/Patio (cocktail hour/reception) that everything went off as planned. The lush surroundings were perfect for photos beforehand, and as night fell it had a different, but still wonderful feel. Elis and her team made pre-planning from a distance pretty easy, and staff at the venue on the day were both helpful and unobtrusive. Once the farmer's market was done in the afternoon (Sunday), parking was a breeze. And compared to other wedding venues we checked out (many of which felt like wedding factories), it was moderately priced, especially since you can choose your own caterer and BYOB.

Just stunning!

We had a destination wedding, and selected this location, sight-unseen. It turned out to be a fantastic find. The pricepoint was spectacular, and it was everything we could have wanted. Stunning gardens and florals. There were even swans gliding across the water next to our event. Like something out of a fairytale. Rain was definitely a concern, and the day prior to our event, the team at Pinecrest worked diligently with us to come up with a backup plan (to use one of their indoor conference rooms). We would have been bummed if we had to resort to that, but thankfully the weather was pristine. I was so grateful to know that they were willing to help us, and my stress going into our wedding day was nearly nonexistent. I can't wait to come back and visit the gardens again.

Responsive staff, Budget friendly venue, Tropical garden dream setting

Pinecrest Gardens was perfect for our small ceremony in the Hammock Pavilion. We added NO additional florals because the backdrop was perfect for our vintage tropical theme. Gorgeous gardens and our guests were so taken by the beauty of the place.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
