Dreamy Experience

Want a made-for-tv experience? This is your place.  When I was a little girl all the movies with perfect weather for an outdoor wedding with those perfect white chairs in the green grass painted this ideallic setting, followed by cocktail hour under twinkle lights…. All doable, at an affordable price. We danced under chandeliers to music curated by a dj who listened to our preferences and made us feel heard and understood. Our guests raved about the food too! Even our pickiest eaters’ bellies were full by the end of the evening. The staff was sweet and accommodating, professional, kind and considerate of all my “silly” requests. They answered all my questions same day via phone or email. I will always think of this place fondly. My grown daughter loved it too, hoping to have the same experience in the future. We love you, Secret Garden!

10/10 Recommend Secret Garden for your Wedding

The Secret Garden is the best venue anyone could get married at. Not only is it beautiful and extremely affordable, but they plan everything for you. I did not have to lift a finger. The food and drinks were incredible and the day was completely stress free. The bridal and groom suites are fantastic and the grand staircase made for the most beautiful photos. Our wedding coordinators that we got paired with named Madisson and Sam were genuinely the main reason the day went to smoothly. Her and her team helped with the rehearsal, set up all of my decor up, and answered any questions I had along the way. They directed all of my guests and wedding party to where they needed to be. Kayla and Haley, the bar tenders, kept the drinks flowing and made me special drinks every time I asked. All of my guests said it was the best wedding they have ever been to. You should 100% choose secret garden for your wedding.

The Best Venue Ever!

Our wedding on June 6th, 2025, was truly the most unforgettable day of our lives and we owe so much of that magic to Secret Garden and their incredible team! From the moment we began planning over a year and a half ago, the staff was there for us every step of the way. Their care, responsiveness, and attention to detail went above and beyond anything we expected.

Gianna, our Wedding Coordinator, was an absolute rockstar! She kept everything running seamlessly and did it all with such calm, kindness, and grace. She was always near by to help us out throughout the day. Gianna even bustled my wedding dress herself when I needed help, which just speaks volumes about the level of dedication and heart she brings to her work! We genuinely couldn’t have done it without her. Karen, our Banquet Captain, was equally amazing. She was warm, attentive, and always a step ahead to make sure we and our guests felt taken care of the whole night.

The venue itself was SO breathtaking. The atmosphere was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined and it felt like we were living in a fairytale! Dining under the stars created such a romantic, enchanting ambiance, and every corner of the space was picture-perfect (SO WORTH IT)! The photo booth was also such a hit and brought so much laughter and joy to the night. We now have so many beautiful pictures to look back on from our guests.

It’s rare to feel like everything came together flawlessly, but somehow, it truly did! We still find ourselves wishing we could relive the day over and over again. Secret Garden gave us memories that we’ll cherish forever, and we are endlessly grateful for their part in making our wedding the best day of our lives.

Amazing - Highly recommend

If anyone is looking at having their wedding at a Wedgewood property, my husband and I would highly recommend it. 100/10 would recommend the Secret Garden location as the team we worked with was fabulous from start to finish. Beginning with just our tour of the venue, we had Huntyr who was so sweet and so helpful. She showed us the flow of things and helped us to envision ourselves getting married there. We knew the day we did the tour, that was our venue. 

From there, they helped us with planning the entire thing... We received a booklet that guided us through all our steps, when to meet with vendors, etc.  Their recommended vendors // the vendors that were included in the Elite package were so excellent to work with!! (Janice at Blooming Bouquets and the team over at Piece of Cake -- wonderful!!). 

A few months out from the wedding, we were scheduled to have a big dinner / tasting with other couples getting married at the venue so it was fun chatting with the people around us all planning their weddings for around the same time ours would be happening. We got to see the setting / atmosphere of what the horderves, cocktail hour, and dinner foods would be like.... It made it very easy for us to select all foods for the day of, as well as meet other vendors (hair/makeup, DJ, videographers, photographers, etc.). Wedgewood made planning the wedding a simplified task.  

We had our rehearsal the day before the wedding where our wedding coordinator had everything down - showed everyone what they should be doing and where. I had a checklist prepared of points I wanted to cover and didn't even have to pull it out because our coordinator had hit every bullet I had noted without me even telling her a single bullet I had down.  

The day of the wedding was perfect ... the team over at Wedgewood had our suites organized and had champagne prepared for the ladies and beers for the boys in their suite too.  Our coordinator alongside her support team ensured everything was set up for us and that we could just relax and enjoy the day / getting ready / and celebrating in general with our favorite people...... I woke up the morning of and told myself that if anything were to go wrong, that it was out of my control and to let it go..... but I literally cannot even explain how PERFECT our day was. Everything stayed on schedule, decor was set up beautifully, and the Wedgewood staff were there to assist with ANY needs along the way. The food was delicious, the staff for the event was so friendly and eager to help / ensure our day was magical. 

Overall, from start to finish, the team there made things easy, fun, and ensured our day was the BEST DAY EVER.  Again - for anyone getting married, I would encourage you to look at Wedgewood properties, although their property, Secret Garden, forever holds that special place in my heart and would be my overall pick!

Best Wedding Venue!

This venue is amazing! I just had a wedding here on 10/4, and the service level was spectacular! We had all of our needs met and more. The team is great about giving suggestions & helping throughout the entire planning process. You may think this venue is more pricey than other smaller venues, but it is well worth the price and gives flexibility with all of their package options!

Simply the best

Secret Garden is an incredible venue that speaks for itself, but the team behind it is even better. Everyone is so kind and truly loves what they do. They make wedding planning feel easy, stress free, and you still get to have the wedding of your Pinterest dreams. The food and services are top of the line. All of our guests raved over the venue, food, drinks, and service. Sydney and Karen are the most kind hearted people and focused on us and making our day feel special, all while keeping the entire event flowing seamlessly. If we had to go through the process again, we would choose Secret Garden in a heartbeat.

Outstanding and Memorable!

Our entire experience with Secret Garden was seamless, and the planning team is staffed with rockstars! They were so diligent with any questions we had and were always so kind to us throughout making our wedding day so special! Sydney was a wonderful day-of coordinator, and our timeline with our wedding ceremony followed by our reception with music, food, dancing, and fun were all spectacular! We could tell our guests were having a blast, and my husband and I are so thankful we chose Secret Garden for our wedding! The way Secret Garden sets up the major vendors for you is beyond helpful (cake, flowers, DJ, food, open bar) with the premium package! We weren’t stressed about the big aspects of our wedding because of how well Secret Garden had everything organized!

The best venue!

We just got married here on April 21st, and it was magical! I’m a perfectionist and found that the whole planning process was super well organized. I loved that it was mostly an all inclusive venue, and every vendor they provided did not disappoint! We got tons of compliments from friends and family on the food, bar service, and overall ambiance. We did dinner under the stars and it was beautiful! Shoutout to Huntyr, our coordinator, and Karen, the banquet captain. They were both so genuinely sweet and kind! We had the best experience and we highly recommend this venue!

A Dream Come True

The moment my husband and I first visited Secret Garden, we knew that this is where we wanted our wedding to be. From day one, our wedding coordinator Huntyr guided us through everything we needed. Everyone on the team made the planning experience seamless and easy.

All of our guests loved the experience and the dinner service! We ended our night with a dance under the stars. Thank you to everyone on our Wedgewood team for making our wedding a dream come true.

The Wedding Justice League

I could not give them enough praise for how great and amazing they made our wedding day! It was so easy to work with them and get ahold of them for questions and they really just make your life so easy! I will always appreciate never having an empty drink the day of my wedding, made me feel all that more special. I love love love them and would always recommend them.
