We recently visited The Hanford Garden and wow—pictures seriously don’t do it justice. The space is so beautiful, and you can already see how much love and intention is being poured into it. Sabrina and the new team have been amazing—so helpful, kind, and detail-oriented. You can tell they really care about making every corner perfect and creating an incredible experience for their couples. The communication alone has been impressive. It’s clear they’re investing a lot to elevate the space while keeping its charm. Love love love this venue!

My fiancé and I had the most incredible experience touring this venue! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how stunning the space is—pictures truly don’t do it justice. Every corner feels like it’s been pulled from a fairytale.

What made it even more special was meeting Sabrina, the new manager. She is warm, passionate, and incredibly detail-oriented. You can instantly feel how much she cares—not just about the venue, but about your vision and experience. She walked us through everything with so much enthusiasm and clarity that we left feeling completely confident and inspired.

The new owners, Sabrina and Chase are not just maintaining the beauty of the venue—they're investing in thoughtful, meaningful upgrades that make the space even more magical. From landscaping to layout improvements, it’s clear they want every inch of the venue to feel perfect for their couples.

We feel so lucky to have found this place and to be working with such a dedicated, and talented team. If you're considering this venue—don’t hesitate. You’ll be in the best hands!!

Highly Recommend!!! Truly stunning wedding venue! Lynn (the owner) is so easy to work with and cares so much about the attention to detail of the venue. I loved the different levels the reception area provides which is something I had never seen before.

Wow, where to start with this amazing venue and owner. First of all, Lynn is one of the best humans we’ve worked with and we’re so lucky that she took over this venue. She was flexible and accommodated our many date changes from 2020 to 2022 due to the pandemic. Her work to update and remodel the venue has made it into one of the best venues our guests and we had seen. The greenery made the venue stay cool, the fairy lights made it feel magical at night, and the grand entrance has a beautiful rustic wood garden feel which makes the best background for photos. The venue has multiple levels and it makes the transition from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, and then to dinner seamless. The changing room/bride and groom room gave us a nice private area where we can stay cool, hydrated, and prepare for any transition throughout the day. Lynn was there the day-of and supplemented the day of coordination we had with our wedding coordinator. Finally the communication with Lynn was so easy and and quick to ensure that all our questions or concerns are addressed. If you’re looking for a magical venue, THIS IS A DIAMOND!

The crew at The Gardens at Sutter Creek were amazing to work with. Lynn is kind, very responsive and helpful. She was so easy to work with leading up to our wedding and made the entire wedding day a breeze with all their help behind the scenes. They have done some amazing upgrades over the last year and it was even more beautiful for the day of our wedding than when we first went to see it. Our guests could not stop commenting on how beautiful and amazing the venue was. Do not miss out on this hidden gem 😍❤️

Lynn at the Gardens at Sutter Creek gave us the wedding we didn't even dream of. With costs, planning, etc. we were set to wed at a resort in South Lake Tahoe. It would've been lovely, but very corporate/restricted. With the pandemic, we were given the opportunity to cancel without penalty. By that point, we came across The Gardens. We were blown away that this gorgeous venue could be OURS for less than we were paying for a small ceremony area and ballroom elsewhere. Lynn was so nice and professional from the very first email, our multiple visits, and throughout the entire day of. The venue was the perfect size, location, and had everything we needed. Bring a fan for the bridal suite in the summer and don't leave all the cleaning til the final hour are my only pieces of advice. :)

We got married here in September of 2019, and couldn't have been happier with our experience. The venue is gorgeous, and Lynn was extremely helpful in planning as well as working with us on the day of the wedding. We had some unexpected changes and she came through for us and helped make it a beautiful night. She also has a great eye for style, and an adorable dog :) 5 stars all the way!
