Married July 2023

Stepping Stones Garden was the perfect venue for our wedding and reception. We loved the English garden theme and fairytale look. There are so many gorgeous flowers and trees that we didn't need to decorate much at all. The air-conditioned bridal suite was also a great place to get ready in, and very spacious. Kristi, Judy, and the entire team at Stepping Stones were great to work with. Would highly recommend!

The perfect wedding venue!

This is the best venue, hands down! Leslie and her team are professional, knowledgeable and very responsive. Not to mention the kindest and most sincere people! They truly cared about making sure we acheived the wedding of our dreams. They are able to recommend local vendors and provide insight to the area. The grounds are well-kept, the gardens are immaculate, and they have several different options for your ceremony. We even had to change our ceremony spot last minute due to weather and Leslie made the whole ordeal stress-free. The bridal room is spacious with plenty of natural light and two makeup/hair stations, and the groomsmen hut is cozy and a great place for the guys to hangout. We had around 115 guests and there was plenty of room and comfortability under the 60x60 tent, and plenty of parking! They provide all the tables and chairs and do setup and tear down making the end of the night easy. Such a good value for the price! Thank you so much to Leslie and her team for making our day absolutely perfect! 🖤

Best wedding venue ever

Stepping Stones Garden is the most beautiful wedding venue I have ever seen. There are multiple locations to have your ceremony, a gorgeous barn, the perfect large, white tent to have your reception under and the most beautiful flowers throughout the entire venue. All of our guest raved about our venue and told us multiple times it was the perfect wedding location! Kendra, the owner, is the sweetest soul and does everything in her power to make sure you have your dream wedding. Her son Keegan also helped set everything up the day of our wedding and it was even more perfect than we could have imagined. Thank you so much Kendra and Keegan for everything!

Wonderful place for our wedding

Perfect place for our wedding. We needed a place for 175 guests and we wanted to bring home brew beer as well as having our own caterer. Stepping Stones was perfect for that. The venue was beautiful and Kendra and her staff were great.

Magical venue!

We got married at Stepping Stones in August 2019. Our experience was just wonderful. Kendra was so helpful and accommodating from the beginning. She was flexible with us stopping by to see the venue several times and answered all of my many emails timely. We also left our wedding cake behind and she was kind enough to keep it in the freezer for over a week; that’s really going above and beyond.

The garden itself is simply amazing. Kendra and her team put so much work and love into every aspect of it and it shows. The plants are gorgeous and healthy, the lawn and concrete areas are clean, and there is a variety of flowers so that something is always in bloom. There are also so many details to discover. Because the grounds are so big, there are many different areas where you can do your ceremony, cocktail hour, etc. No two weddings here will be exactly alike. Guests will love exploring the garden because there is something interesting or beautiful around every turn. And there is plenty of room for guests to get away from a loud DJ or band if they want to.

Day of, Kendra’s crew were helpful and several of our guests have said that the bartender specifically was excellent (he didn’t give my underage cousins any alcohol—and they definitely tried—so that’s a win in my book!). Logistically, there are plenty of outlets, lots of light, great spaces for everyone to get dressed, plenty of refrigerators for caterers, etc. We had a hair and makeup crew plus all bridesmaids and both moms in the bridal suite no problem.

Guests have told us that ours was one of the best weddings they’ve ever been to, and Stepping Stones is a huge part of that! I would recommend Stepping Stones to anyone! We can’t thank Kendra enough for making our wedding so wonderful.

Brides - must see venue!

This is a must see venue! Kendra and Keegan were absolutely AMAZING to work with! I had ZERO stress the day of my wedding. The venue hands down is the most beautiful place you can get married. Our photographers loved the venue due to so many great places for photos. Every guest talked about how gorgeous the venue was. You won’t regret checking this place out - I promise!

Nothing short of magical

Stepping Stones is an absolutely amazing venue. Kendra and her team work their butts off to make this venue absolutely gorgeous and were helpful in every step of the planning process. If you’re even kind of considering them for your venue GO FOR IT. I cannot speak highly enough of them.

My daughter and son in law's wedding. Wonderful gorgeous venue and gardens! Many different areas to choose from for your ceremony. Kendra was very helpful and gave us a fabulous day (even though it rained) so we brought the ceremony into the barn. Loved it! The guests were very impressed...from the road you can't even see the venue quiet and private!
