From the reviews
Beautiful location run by enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers. Great place for walking relaxing having a picnic or it would make an incredible backdrop for a wedding!
What a quaint little place this is. They have lots of plants and flowers to look at. You can rent the gazebo Barn area for like birthday parties, picnics, and weddings. It was so beautiful here. I will definitely be back.
Getting married at Hearthstone Botanical Gardens
Hearthstone 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.
