Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • An easy drive from the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex, this unique private events venue is set on 40 idyllic acres, and features purpose-built spaces designed to host the most perfect of gatherings.
  • We’re in love with the darling chapel, but there’s also a charming courtyard just right for outdoor ceremonies. Host cocktails on the lush lawn, then move to the stunning, natural-light-filled, reception hall.
  • The property features dressing suites for the couple, a beautiful pond, sweet farmhouse tables and cross back chairs, and outdoor heaters so you can keep the party going once the sun goes down.

COUPLES ARE ASKING: We've got answers

What's included when we book The Gardenia Wedding & Event Venue, and what will we still need to pay for separately?

Can we have both our ceremony and reception at The Gardenia Wedding & Event Venue, or will guests need to travel between them?

Yes, it all happens on one 40-acre property at The Gardenia. You can marry in the air-conditioned chapel, which seats 300, or in the outdoor courtyard, then move to the lawn for cocktail hour and into the 5,300-square-foot reception hall with 20-foot gallery windows.

If we already have vendors we love, can we bring them to The Gardenia Wedding & Event Venue or do we have to use yours?

Yes. The Gardenia allows outside vendors, including your own caterer, and shares a recommended vendor list. You can bring your own alcohol, too. Every event needs a day-of coordinator, and you can find one on the preferred list. If you're serving alcohol, you'll need alcohol insurance on top of the required $1,000,000 liability policy.

A 40% deposit and a signed contract hold your date, and payments are non-refundable if you cancel. Plan separately for catering, alcohol, linens and tableware, a day-of coordinator and liability insurance.

How long do we get at The Gardenia Wedding & Event Venue, and when does the music have to stop?

The bridal and groom's suites open at 10am too, and since nothing can be set up or delivered the day before, all decorating happens within your rental window.
