Unique Garden Wedding and Event Venue
Holds ceremonies and receptions
I cannot say enough amazing things about Celebration Gardens and their incredible team—Gisselle, Brian, and Christian! We worked with them for 2.5 years because we wanted to take our time planning, and they were patient, kind, and understanding every single step of the way. They explained absolutely everything, always responded quickly, and truly helped create our perfect wedding.
From every random idea I had, they were able to bring it to life. The garden itself was stunningly beautiful, but it was the execution that blew us away. "Dancing on the clouds" was a huge priority for me, and it turned out so incredibly magical! Our guests had a blast—the mini-golf was played constantly, and the games, s'mores, and phone booth were massive hits. Because they have outstanding relationships with other vendors, the options they offer are truly endless (everything from dance lessons and magic shows to ice cream bars!).
Planning a wedding can be stressful, but they made the financial part completely stress-free. There were zero surprise fees; every conversation and contract was 100% clear, so we knew exactly what the costs were. Their pricing is incredibly affordable, with packages and deals to fit absolutely any budget. If you want a team that is amazing, transparent, and dedicated to making your vision come to life, look no further!
Our wedding at Celebration Gardens was truly unforgettable. From the very beginning, Brian’s responsiveness and willingness to accommodate every detail went above and beyond anything we expected. In the final weeks leading up to the ceremony, Giselle stepped in with such grace and organization, making the process feel seamless.
On the day of, the attendants did a wonderful job supporting us and our guests. Everyone was amazed by how stunning the venue was and many couldn’t believe this hidden oasis sits right in the heart of Winter Park. We’re so grateful for the entire team who helped make our day so special.
