From the reviews

I couldn’t have chosen a better venue for my wedding. The Gatehouse’s all inclusive package was perfect for an out of town bride like me. Christi was very responsive and did her best to accommodate my requests. Our wedding was beautiful, just as we wanted it to be.

★★★★★ — Ruth, Sep 2021

I would 100% recommend The Gatehouse! Everything turned out so beautiful, elegant, and fun! The food was great, the cake was great, and the to-go box they pack for the bride and groom was packaged so nicely. Christi made the planning process seamless with minimal stress. She was organized, flexible, and on point.

★★★★★ — Valerie, Jan 2020

Incredible venue, delicious food, and amazing staff! My wedding was absolutely perfect and I could not have asked for better. The Gatehouse is an all inclusive venue and worth every penny you pay plus some!! Mrs. Christi was an absolute GEM to work with, she made sure that my day was a dream come true!

★★★★★ — Kelsey, Jan 2025

Couldn’t and wouldn’t have picked a better venue! We got married here over a year ago and recently witnessed other close friends of ours get married here and I can absolutely say whether, bride or guest; the service and atmosphere is top tier!!! Ms.

Getting married at The Gatehouse

The Gatehouse 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.
