Amazing fall wedding!

We were married in October and it could not have been more breathtaking than Tyler Gardens. Every guest could not stop talking about the beauty and perfection of Tyler Gardens. Additionally working with Rae on the day of our wedding was the icing on a perfect fall day. Rae took care of everything in the most professional manner and I am forever thankful to her.

Excellent venue

I recently had my wedding at Tyler Gardens through Open Aire and it was better then I could have imagined. We were originally scheduled for last spring but due to Covid, it could not happen last year. The staffing was so accommodating with working to figure out a new date, while keeping up with all of the new covid regulations. I was able to stop into their show room at Newtown Party Rental and they showed me all the items that we were offered for the wedding. After last year I was not expecting the wedding to actually work out as perfect as it did.

Beautiful grounds

Due to scheduling changes as a result of COVID-19, we only took wedding portrait photos here but are in love with the pictures! The grounds are stunning and are very well-kept. The team at Open Aire Affairs was very accommodating with our schedule changes. As a wedding venue, it is beautiful!
