From the reviews

I had my wedding this past Saturday at the palms, it was absolutely amazing! Lori was so accommodating and sweet. She helped me through the entire wedding planning process by giving me helpful suggestions and sharing her expert knowledge!

I had my wedding here at The Palms and it was Magical. It was one of the best days of my life. The venue is always so green and gorgeous. I highly recommend having your even here. The owners are very nice and will help you make your special day the best it can be! Thank you Rabina and everyone for making us so happy! 😊

It's a great venue for weddings and events. They have beautiful gardens outside with lots of little gazebos and Hideaway places. Inside is nice and they can support a pretty large wedding or other event in this facility. It's really kind of a Hidden Gem.

★★★★★ — Ken, Mar 2018

I recently had my wedding here, and the family that runs this venue did a fantastic job of making things go smoothly. Since they also own rental equipment (via WeDoDesigns), getting everything needed in one place was super convenient.

Getting married at The Palms Venue & Villas

The Palms Venue & Villas 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.
