Amazing! Perfection!

Great view! Sweet people! I was amazed at how willing everyone was to help. Easy access for parking and getting things set. And you have options for indoor or outdoor setup.

MY DREAM LOCATION! Rip was amazing! The setting was beautiful and so perfect! Jamie was awesome to work with and always very clear in her communication, they are extremely busy so I could not always get an answer right then and there... but my questions were always answered in a timely manner! Thank you all for an amazing wedding :)

We were very pleased with everything. No pressure to overspend above our budget. Worked with us from beginning to end to assure everything went smoothly. Thanks Jamie and the rest of the Rip Van Winkle staff who worked behind the scenes to make this a perfect venue.

Rip Van Winkle Gardens was by far the most beautiful venue that we looked at for our wedding. They worked with us to turn our wedding day into the one we had always dreamed of, and at a highly reasonable price. We've gotten nothing but compliments from everyone who attended!

The wedding and reception were beautiful. I could not have asked for a more beautiful setting. with the oak trees and lake, we did not have to do very much for the reception site. And the Bayless Center was a perfect location for the reception. It truly was a magical place. The venue price is a bit high, but that included rentals and the bar. It is still expensive when compared to other places, but you do get a gorgeous setting.

Beautiful place for a wedding. My only concern is that when it comes to the wedding you are basically on your own. To me for as much money as you spend over there they should also have a wedding planner included. Other then that I highly reccomend this place.

Absolutely beautiful location! Service staff on wedding day were amazing but for the price, I found the coordinator a bit lacking during the planning process and on wedding day. Definitely hire your own planner for things to run a bit more smoothly!
