From the reviews

I recently had my wedding here almost a month ago already ! It was truly the best day ever. Lindsey and Shannon were truly amazing. So responsive and helpful ! The moment I saw the venue I knew this was the place ! All of the flowers really shinned through and became the best backdrop for my wedding !

★★★★★ — Lisa, May 2025

Wow, what an amazing venue. First, let me start by saying that Lindsey and Shannon (the owners) are so kind, helpful, and accommodating. They recently took over from the previous owners who ran the place into the ground. But boy did these ladies do a fabulous job renovating the venue (inside and outside).

★★★★★ — Amy, Aug 2024

Oh my gosh what a stunning venue!! I recently visited this property and was blown away by all of the thought and care that went into crafting this beautiful location.

★★★★★ — Haley, Mar 2025

I had my September wedding here and I couldn’t have picked a better location. Everything was BEAUTIFUL! Lindsey and Shannon were amazing to work with and so kind. The renovations they did were absolutely breathtaking! If I had to do it all over again I’d pick this venue. BEST DAY EVER!

Getting married at The Garden Cottage Event Co

The Garden Cottage Event Co 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.
