From the reviews

The Garden Ballroom is by far the most beautiful venue I've ever been to. The staff is incredibly organized and professional they treated us and my guests like family. Hands down they're amazing!!!!! Thank you Lorraine, Alfredo and staff for your wonderful skills decorating and arranging our wedding.

★★★★★ — Julio, Nov 2021

I couldn’t end our anniversary without mentioning a really special place and some really special people. When we got married 2 years ago at The Garden Ballroom we were blessed with the best wedding planner ever, Lorraine. Because of how busy business was at the time, my husband planned the entire wedding with Lorraine.

★★★★★ — Taylor, Aug 2023

Working with Lorraine and Alfredo has been nothing but magical! From the moment you step into their office, they make you feel like family. I feel so blessed to have been able to work with them and host my baby shower there.

★★★★★ — Cristal, Mar 2024

Look no further. Lorraine is honestly the BEST wedding planner. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would. She listens to your vision of your wedding and makes it happen without the stress. The planning was so smooth and well thought out including the minor details.

★★★★★ — Gigi, Feb 2022

Getting married at The Garden Ballroom

The Garden Ballroom 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 The Garden Ballroom

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at The Garden Ballroom — 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.
