From the reviews

Beautiful gardens... we greatly enjoyed soaking up the ambience. Restful healing energy. We learned you can rent this place out for weddings... or for a celebration of life. When you arrive, there is a pay here box and a very helpful map. The gardens go way-back...

We had a mid-September wedding for 110 guests. Absolutely gorgeous venue. The garden speaks for itself. Bridal suite and groom's room on-site. Catering kitchen, tiki bar, ceremony garden, and reception hall. Tables & chairs included, and optional linen rental - It's all there!

★★★★★ — Becca, Oct 2024

Dan has done an; incredible job nurturing his private property into a splendid oasis of tricking water, blooming flowers, and inviting gazebos. Entry is sort of free, but the sign at the door asks for $7.50 per adult, and you'll be glad you made the contribution.

Getting married at DanWalt Botanical Gardens

DanWalt Botanical Gardens comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.

Corporate events & private parties at DanWalt Botanical Gardens

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at DanWalt Botanical Gardens — garden venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
