From the reviews
I shot a wedding at The Gardens in Fall of 2022; I hope to be back! Absolutely stunning venue! So many options for photos and being outside! The tent is so nice to have for the reception. The bridal suite was comfortable and open for getting ready photos.
My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Gardens on October 10, 2020. Leading up to our event, Gardens staff was very friendly, responsive, and helpful as we planned for the safety of our guests. The space itself is stunning!
Beautiful location and lots of great areas for a wedding. The owners are wonderful to work with and make the space a wonderful spot for a wedding a venue. It was a joy working with them and working at the venue. Has a lot to offer and has multiple options for what you can do for a wedding.
I've been the DJ at a few weddings at The Gardens of Castle Rock and everytime I'm there I'm continually impressed with the venue as well as the owner Glen. He's always one step ahead and always has the couple's best interest at heart. Pick this venue and you won't be disappointed.
Getting married at THE GARDENS of Castle Rock
THE GARDENS of Castle Rock 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.
