My husband and I could not have imagined a better wedding experience and we are so grateful we chose to have our special day at the beautiful Secret Garden! We got married on December 14, 2024 and it was the most beautiful day we could have imagined! We booked the venue over a year in advance and throughout the entire planning process, the entire team was so available and responsive. As the day approached, we met with our day-of coordination Laura and she was truly amazing!! She helped me create the day of my dreams and was very prompt in responding to any of our concerns. She helped bring our vision to life and I am so grateful!! The very inclusive experience at The Secret Garden was also so helpful. We ended up going through our own food vendor for BBQ for dinner, but everything else was seamless and really helped ease the wedding planning stress. The photography and videography team was so amazing and captured our day so beautifully. I still cry tears of joy looking at our pictures and videos from the special day! :') The DJ services provided were also amazing and we couldn't have been happier with DJ Jason Lyons! Overall, we could not be happier with our experience at The Secret Garden. It was worth every penny to marry my best friend at such a beautiful place surrounded by everyone we love!! :)

I had the absolute pleasure of getting married at this venue just a month ago, and I can confidently say it’s a hidden gem! Everything came together beautifully. We chose the Elite Package and worked with their in-house florist, Events by Floral Sensations (amazing floral arrangements omg!), DJ from JC Entertainment, and cake vendor, Bo Cakes, while bringing in our own officiant and photographer. Every detail went above and beyond my expectations. I'm still getting compliments on how gorgeous the venue was and how amazing the food tasted! Iveth, our coordinator, was incredible. She made the entire process so smooth and stress-free, which truly says a lot coming from someone with a Type A personality who usually struggles to let go of control (LOL). The venue also provides a wedding planner to help keep everything organized and on track, which made the planning process so much easier for me. The day of coordination went without a hitch and Kyle, our DJ, did such an amazing job with the music for our ceremony and the reception and Iveth was on top of everything! The food was absolutely delicious! Admittedly, we were a little hesitant after sampling it at the extravaganza, where much of it was overcooked, likely due to the small bite-sized portions prepared for the crowd. But don’t let that discourage you. On the actual day, the prime rib was cooked to perfection, the sides were flavorful, and everyone kept raving about the tray-passed appetizers. Will set aside a special platter of appetizers for my husband and me so we wouldn’t miss out while we were taking family portraits during cocktail hour. The drinks were another highlight! Strong, flavorful, and consistently complimented by our guests! At the end of the night, they packaged up our leftover cake, 2 plates of leftovers to go with a bottle of champagne with a thoughtful thank you note. I would do it all over again! I am so glad I came across Wedgewood Weddings, you guys have an incredible team! To the Orchard Team: Iveth, Will, Sara, Anissa, Krystle, Kevin, Oscar, Rileigh, Abby and Marcella, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special. We couldn't have done it without you all! And Will, thank you for being so awesome and letting us feed your catfish LOL and the turtles at the end of the night.
