Oh my goodness... our experience with this venue was AMAZING! Starting out with the friendly and communicative staff. The team at Celebration Gardens is extremely professional and customer-focused. My husband and I communicated with both Michael and Brian and the longest they ever took to respond to an email was a day. There were both extremely helpful in answering questions. The concept of the wedding packages is also a life saver. I planned our wedding myself so the fact that the Celebration Gardens team already has a list of vendors was really helpful. However, we also did appreciate that they also offered the flexibility of bringing in our own vendors if we wanted to. We ended up using all of the vendors in the Celebration Gardens packages and all of them were extremely professional. Also, all of my guests loved the venue. It is also really cool that Celebration Gardens has outdoor games. I had kids who attended my wedding and afterward I heard that they did not want to leave the venue because they were having so much fun! The only suggestion I have for the venue is to maybe set up a microphone during the ceremony. I received feedback from a few guests that they couldn't hear the officiant or my husband/myself during the ceremony. I am forever grateful to have found this venue. It is beautiful, very affordable and the team is fantastic! Thank you Michael, Brian, and the rest of the Celebration Gardens team!

I only have good things to say about my experience using Celebration Gardens for my wedding! Brian, Michael, and the entire team were so kind and extremely helpful during the entire process. We had such a great time at our wedding, and many of our guests remarked at what a perfect venue it was. We agree! The property is well maintained and beautiful, especially with the new additions. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable and simple experience!

When someone asked me to describe my wedding day in one word. I immediately said MAGICAL! From the venue to the food everything was top notch. I was really taken back at how easy everything was and not to mention the professionalism and care that went into planning our day. Justin was my coordinator and he really was a big part of making our wedding extra special.I felt like he was my fairy godfather haha. I say run don’t walk at setting up your special day to be at this marvelous location. You will have nothing but the best of the best! I am already trying to figure out what other party to throw there because it was just so much fun and so super relaxing! I am so lucky to have found this place!! I can 1000% say I looked up and down Florida to find a place like this and this wonderful location is the diamond of all the wedding venue a in Florida hands down. I will forever be a ginormous fan❤️

So many of our guests have told us how beautiful Celebration Gardens was for our wedding, and yet they’d never heard of it. Truly, I hope this review helps get the word out because this gem deserves it. If you are looking for a small to medium sized garden setting with lots of natural flowers (never mind what the talented florist brought in), you’ve found your venue. And if you’re lucky enough to have the jasmine blooming like we were, the aroma is out of this world. Celebration Gardens offered several wedding packages to choose from, and then we were able to customize at will. The ability to book a venue and have all the vendors I needed come together to do magic, that was a lifesaver! Our wedding went from venue selection to wedding date in less than 100 days, and the Celebration Gardens staff made it all happen without any issues. Look over their photos, go take a tour, and have a wonderful event like we did!

We had a small (16 person) wedding and dinner reception at Celebration Gardens and it could not have been more perfect! The entire experience from the initial booking to the day of was simple and easy - exactly what we were looking for.The grounds are overflowing with beautiful plants and flowers that are perfect for photos. The little house with two areas for the wedding couple is spacious and made for a wonderful entrance to the ceremony. We also loved that it has a back exit that we used for our “first look” pictures.We loved the convenience of the included speaker system so we could stream our music from a cell phone. The staff set up a GORGEOUS farm table with beautiful chargers, plates, napkins, and fresh flowers. The hanging garden bulbs provided a wonderful bit of light as the sun was setting.This venue is easily accessible in Winter Park and has plenty of parking. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for outdoor or indoor event options!

This venue was perfect for our wedding and reception of 50 guests! All of the flowers and greenery is the perfect backdrop for all of the pictures and we received so many compliments that day on how fun of a venue it was with all of the games and firepit for s’mores. The entire staff was amazing and very helpful with the planning process & with the day of operations.

Our wedding had about 26 people due to COVID and this place was absolutely perfect. Regardless of wedding size I feel I would have loved this as my venue anyways. They just renovated it a few weeks before our wedding which was December 14th, 2020. We planned for a Garden themed wedding and Celebration Gardens was the best fit for the job with beautiful and fresh flowers and gorgeous lighting! There were very simple and understanding restrictions and the staff that attends the wedding was very helpful in making sure everything went smooth and set up was correct as requested. You are able to use all parts of the property including the house where the bride and groom would get ready. Overall, Michael Thomas, the Manager, and the staff he had assist us were very helpful and easy to get ahold of during the whole process.

My husband and I had our wedding at Celebration Gardens this past weekend. Due to COVID-19 we had to push our 150 person wedding at another venue out to September, however still wanted a smaller intimate wedding with our immediate family. My friend recommended Celebration Gardens and we were able to book them 2 weeks before our wedding (originally had booked a park but got cancelled on). Michael Thomas was so easy to work with and made sure everything would be set up the way we wanted and allowed us to bring food into the venue so our family can have a celebratory dinner. The venue was perfect and Christian (venue attendant) was super helpful all day and the grounds we just beautiful in all our pictures. We are so happy that they were able to make our first wedding date so special.

My husband and I got married at Celebration Gardens in March 2019 and I could not have asked for a better experience! Every single person I worked/interacted with were friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. All communication was timely and Michael, the property manager was very transparent regarding pricing and what was allowed at the venue from the very first tour. The venue itself is intimate and beautiful in its own right, but also gives you lots of space for creativity and imagination to really make it feel like it's your own. I could not recommend it more!

Thank you for making our wedding so memorable and stress free!!!

My husband and I just got married at Celebration Gardens in January 2019. We visited the venue in May and had a tentative date in mind. Michael Thomas, the facility manager, put a courtesy hold on the date and said he would inform us if anyone else was interested in that date. We booked our date in June 2018. Throughout the entire planning process, Michael was extremely helpful. He replied very quickly to all my emails and offered many problem solving solutions along the way. One of the added benefits of Celebration Gardens is the a la cart opinions with their services. You could plan everything (food, music, flowers, rentals, etc) through them or you can use outside vendors of your choice. We outsourced a lot of our vendors but we did hire the bartender and helpers for the evening through the venue. All employees were professional and helpful throughout the evening. The gardens are beautiful and very well kept. Even with a wedding in January, the flowers were in full bloom. The simple charm of the gardens is what won us over. You don't need many decorations of your own with the natural beauty. It was an added bonus of having the fire pit accessible. The staff on premise for the evening handled everything related to the fire pit. One of the added benefits of the garden are all the little areas that guests can choose to enjoy. Since the dance floor can be separate from the dinner area (we chose to use the ceremony lawn as the dinner space as well), the fire pit area, the inside space where we had our photo booth (mostly because it was cold) and coffee and tea. Each guest could find a place they felt comfortable. The only headache I'd say is you have to hire your own lighting for the lawn area or bring in and put up your own. The gazebos are well lit but the lawn space will need some additional lighting. We also used a helper/server who was employee through John Michael entertainment for our rehearsal dinner at our house and they were very helpful. Our wedding was perfect and everything we had imagined it to be and it was mainly due to the helpfulness of Michael. He even allowed us to deliver a garden trellis a day early and keep it near the office building to help elevate the day of stress. Michael made the planning process less stressful for sure. I would definitely hold another event here in the future!

Thank you Michael and Charlene! We couldn't be happier with the way the wedding turned out. They had options ready to go in case of heavy rain. I would definitely recommend them and the packages offered, it made our planning process so much easier. The vendors in their packages work really well with you and are always looking out in your best interest. All of the renovations done since we first visited the site last September gave Celebration Gardens a really nice facelift. Our guests have not stopped talking about how beautiful CG is with all the flowers and greenery. We are so happy to have picked this place that now holds a special place in our hearts forever. Thank you again Celebration Gardens!

Thank you so much!!! It was such a great experience. The venue is beautiful and all the upgrades we saw during the planning let us know you were working to make it the best venue out there. We used an all inclusive package and couldn’t be happier we did. When we asked for a different photographer there was no push back just an offer of other options. “Day of” went as smoothly as possible even with having to use our rain contingency plan. Thank you for everything! It was all we hoped for. We have already been asked for information on the venue from other couples and we happily recommend Celebration Gardens!!!
