Dorothy B. Oven Park Reviews

This venue was absolutely stunning. The flowers were all in bloom, the house was antique and gorgeous, and the grounds were manicured to perfection. We had minimal decorations because the place was so incredible on its own. We especially appreciated the tables and chairs provided for 60 guests, reducing our rental costs. It was easily accessible, accessible for disabilities, excellent lighting, intimate alcoves, photogenic getting ready rooms, the list goes on and on. Incredibly worth the price. 10/10 recommend

The venue is beautiful! The staff was very helpful through the entire process. I am so glad I chose to have my wedding and reception there. They were very attentive to our needs and exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend having your wedding here if you are looking for an outdoor wedding!

Not only was the park a beautiful location but the staff was friendly and accomodating. We held both our ceremony and reception here and couldn't have been happier with the result! Our wedding looked like it came out of a fairytale! The pricing was great too!

We had entirely planned on having our wedding at Dorothy B. Oven Park. The price is fantastic for what you get, the lawn and flowers are beautiful, having a kitchen site is REALLY convenient, and the gazebo was just right as the place where we wanted to exchange vows.

In the end, we eloped to Las Vegas, but not because of this venue!

The staff at Dorothy B. Oven park are WONDERFULLY helpful! They'll even set up the tables and chairs for your ceremony. I highly, highly recommend Dorothy B. Oven Park as a location for anyone who would like to have an outdoor wedding in Tallahassee!

I loved Dorothy B Oven as soon as I saw it! It had everything in one and it was truly the perfect setting for my wedding! The workers there were so helpful as well. Anytime leading up to the event, if I had questions about anything and I could call and Debbie would be there to answer any questions we had!

The only part that I felt needed improvement was the availability to see the house inside. Unless you called ahead and pre-scheduled or had to wait until there was an event there being set up, you really wouldn't be able to explore inside the house. But that's not anyone that works there fault, since the park is run by the state.

But there was one person, and I did not get her name that was kind of on the rude side. When we went there the day before our wedding for the rehearsal, she came out and tried to shoo us away because of another event that wasn't beginning for several hours. We were running a little late, but we had already discussed with Debbie and it was okayed that we could be there. I understand it that the lady was just doing her job, but the approach to me was a little on the unprofessional side.

Other than that I will always recommend this as a perfect location for any event you want to have!

A beautiful place to have our wedding. The staff were very helpful in aiding us in planning the layout of the reception and all. There are a few restrictions because it is a public garden, but it was the perfect place for our wedding.

Good value for the money especially if you use it for ceremony and reception as you get it for the entire day. Somewhat inflexible about some of the decorating rules...can not hang things from the walls or use sparklers, etc. However, the site is beautiful already so does not need much decor. Especially nice at night because of the lights that are already present

WONDERFUL location. They were quite helpful and worked well with us and our needs. This was both an affordable and beautiful location for our wedding. We were very happy with this location.

They have a beautiful venue, but they are not very organized. Plan on calling and going a lot.

It's a beautiful property and could be a nice location to host an event, however the manager ruined it all.
