My husband and I got married at the Garden at the Hops on October 5th and we cannot express how phenomenal the venue, the staff, and the entire process was. The ceremony area is breathtaking, and the reception tent and grounds are stunning. We primarily worked with Alexia and Anna, and they were always available to answer our questions and provide guidance on the planning process. They regularly checked in with us to make sure we were on track, and they were incredibly helpful and professional. Anna was our day of coordinator, and she was there for us every step of the way throughout our day, keeping us on track, making sure we ate, and even searching through the bridal cottage for anything I needed throughout the evening. Our guests had so much fun and we received countless compliments on the venue. The Hops has a list of preferred vendors, many of whom we used and had an amazing experience with, and having a team of vendors that worked so seamlessly together made the entire experience smooth. We are so thankful to the entire team at the Hops for making our wedding day an absolute dream come true. We cannot recommend the Hops enough!

We had the BEST experience with The Garden at the Hops. Alexia was always available to answer questions throughout the planning process. The planning pod website they use helped to keep us organized as we were going through the planning. Her walk through with us a few weeks before the wedding was so thorough and really helped alleviate all my stress about how the day was going to go. On the day of the wedding Alexia and her team were phenomenal. Getting ready at the cottage on-site made everything so easy and it was a great space to relax, get our hair and makeup done, eat and take some photos. They set up the tent beautifully and it truly felt magical. There was rain predicted on the day and they were checking the radar constantly to determine if we could have our ceremony outside. We even would have been able to have it outside with their planning but we ended up deciding to take longer with our photos and the team pivoted easily to moving the ceremony under the tent and it was still beautiful. Alexia and her team checked in with us throughout the wedding to see if we needed anything and made sure we always had drinks and were fed. They’re the reason I got to taste all the food on the wedding day! They made the entire day feel stress free! The venue is beautiful and fun and we got so many comments from our guests on what a unique and gorgeous venue it was! I wish I could re-live the whole day again! I would recommend the garden at the hops to anyone getting married in CT! We might come back and do it again as a vow renewal in a few years!

I don’t have any professional pictures of the tent yet, but you can see the gorgeous gardens in this picture!

My husband and I cannot recommend The Garden at The Hops Company enough! We just had our wedding on Friday (August 9, 2024). From the day we toured the venue all the way through the wedding day, our event director Anna was responsive, helpful, and so knowledgeable. She guided us with vendor recommendations, answered all of our questions in a very timely manner, and made the wedding planning process easy and stress free. Fast forward to the week of our wedding when it looked like storms and rain were inevitable, Anna reassured us that weather can change and that her entire team was prepared for anything. They monitored the weather up until the last second and thanks to the amazing team at THC we were able to have our ceremony outside! The entire day Anna and her team went above and beyond to anticipate our needs. From holding my drink while taking photos, to bustling my dress, and helping me change from heels to sneakers, the level of service they provided exceeded all of our expectations. This venue is not to be missed! Our friends and family have not stopped raving about how much they loved The Garden. The space is beautiful, the staff is wonderful, and you won’t regret having your wedding here! We cannot thank the wedding team at THC enough. It was a perfect night!!
