Panola Valley Gardens Reviews

Panola was the perfect location for our wedding. The food was amazing and we all loved how beautiful the gardens were. Mary is a wonderful host!

This place was beautiful. Maryann was so helpful and knew exactly what to do and when. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for the perfect outdoor wedding.

It is absolutely beautiful! In our case a tornado had gone through a few weeks before, so we weren't able to get some of the pics we wanted. However, you would never know it! Everything came together and was perfect!

This was the best day of our lives, and Panola gardens was a big part of that. They are so accommodating. The gardens are also diverse and beautiful in every picture.

Panola Valley Gardens is the perfect place for an outdoor garden wedding! We are so happy that we found this place! It was so so gorgeous! I really couldn't have asked for anything else! It really is an amazing place and a must see! There is so many different photo opportunities to choose from on this property and Mary Ann the owner is so nice and flexible to work with! We just loved it there and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an outdoor venue!

Panola is the best place to get married if you're looking for an outdoor venue! The grounds are extremely beautiful. Our wedding was May 15, 2015, so fairly early in the season, but the grounds still looked incredibly beautiful. It even rained the day before, but Mary Ann had everything looking perfect the next day. We got many compliments from our guests on the venue choice. Mary Ann is extremely helpful and knows her stuff. We wouldn't change a thing!

MaryAnn was great to work with. She was totally flexible. She was experienced. She made sure all of the little details that brides would freak out about were taken care of.

The gardens are absolutely gorgeous and perfect for an outdoor wedding. Whenever people mention wanting an outdoor wedding, I recommend Panola. They have an outdoor chapel, so you are covered, but still able to enjoy outside.

I loved this place, not only were the people so nice and easy to work with, the place was breath taking. This was someones back yard, it was a beautiful garden and for a great price. The husband and wife there were so flexible. The nice thing was that i didnt have to find anyone to work the music room or help coordinate us down the isle, they were there to do that. If you are looking for a beautiful out door wedding i recommend you check out this place.

This location is absolutely beautiful. You are surrounded by a small pond, flowers and foliage during your ceremony. It is the absolute perfect location for an outdoor wedding. Mary was so wonderful to work with. She met our every expectation and beyond. Even though we did not have a coordinator, it felt as though we had one. He knowledge and expertise are unsurpassed. The only thing she can't create for your wedding is the weather. But I think she even has a solution for that!!!

We had the perfect wedding and reception in spite of tornado damage a month prior. Gary and Mary Ann handled the event with professionalism. The day was perfect. The weather was good and the garden was beautiful. I would completely recommend.

The gardens were absolutely beautiful for a September wedding. Mary was very flexible and helpful in planning the ceremony, she really seemed to know what she was doing. Amazing location for pictures not too far from the twin cities. Would recommend them to any future bride!

Panola Valley Gardens was perfect. It is on the owner's, Mary Ann Norton's, personal property. She and her husband have turned their property into several gorgeous gardens, with a pond, trails, statues, water fountain, gazebo, pavillion, and so on. Absolutely beautiful. I fell in love with it the first time I visited.

The gardens are beautiful and there are so many photo opportunities! It's a little pricey, but worth it. We received so many compliments and our photos turned out wonderful.

This was an amazing and beautiful place for an outdoor wedding, it completely exceeded our expectations!

This place was Beatuiful! It was a huge garden outside. The weather was nice and so were the people. She asked me if everything was ok, helped me out with the wedding, when to walk. She had her husband start the music and just asked us when to play it and when to start it again for the walk down. If I could get married all over again, I would not change a thing or have second thoughts about going anywere else.

Very nice people and beautiful gardens. A little pricey considering you usually have to pay your officiant, too. But they were very flexible and always returned calls promptly. Overall it made for a great experience.

We had a wonderful ceremony and I thought the place was beautiful. It didn't have the blossoms that they have in spring and summer but it was still beautiful and there is a sheep farm next door so we have pictures with sheep grazing in the background...it was the best possible place to have our wedding. They were so helpful and she set us up with a wonderful Judge to do the ceremony. We had the option of having any type of ceremony we wanted and she made it as easy for us and took a lot of the stress away. She provided music for the ceremony and told us we could bring our own ifwe wanted. It was the best we could have hoped for.

We really enjoyed having our wedding at Panola Valley Gardens. They have a beautiful venue for outdoor pictures and are very flexible. The owners are very nice and great to work with. We would do it all over again!
