Seriously, stop. Look no further!

It's really hard for me to slim down all the wonderful things in 1 review that's only 3000 characters because I could go on and on and on about how AMAZING Green Gardens was. We booked our wedding 2 years in advance, back in 2019. We set up a scheduled tour and Trent (the owner) was incredibly kind and showed us around the property. The property is LITERALLY breathtaking. There's an absolutely stunning greenhouse where one can have a wedding and reception in, with cascading foliage and greenery and chandeliers. There is also a farmhouse for the wedding party to get ready in, and plenty of room for people to relax and mingle in! I love how spacious, but also how quaint and beautiful this venue was. We were able to cut back on so much unnecessary decorating because this place was so gorgeous on it's own!! Trent was more than accommodating! We asked if we could have access to the farmhouse earlier than on our contract and we also asked if we were able to share the day with our dog. Both times I came to him for an inquiry, he was completely open and was very flexible which we were so appreciative of. The venue coordinator, Tera, was fantastic. My mother was very taken by her and her responsiveness to our questions and emails. When we got to meet her the day of the rehearsal she was super nice and everyone was working so hard to make our dream and vision a reality! Although we did not take advantage of the farmhouse weekend, it was so nice we were able to get around in such a lovely home. The farmhouse has charm and it really makes you feel like a bride getting around for your wedding! Lastly, everyone, literally everyone who attended our wedding was so blown away with this beautiful venue and I couldn't agree more! I only hope that someday I can attend a wedding here as a guest to bask in more of it's beauty! When we viewed venues for our wedding we only looked here because we knew before we even went that it was the place for us. Perfection is close to the word I'm looking for, but even then, I'm not sure it can even describe our time here with Green Gardens

Better than anything we could have asked for

We had our wedding at Of the Land in August of 2023 and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! The owners are both easy-going and professional, and their phenomenal staff helped us achieve our dream wedding day. The photos do not do this place justice, it is so much more beautiful in person. The florists that contract with the venue are incredibly skillful and their arrangements really helped to take everything to the next level. Also, the fact that they do their own catering was a big plus for us; we didn't have to worry about finding another vendor and the food was absolutely incredible. The venue offers several packages, including the option to have it for almost the entire weekend, Friday midday through Sunday morning. We went for the total package and had our rehearsal dinner there as well, which was super convenient and amazing. The owners were extremely accommodating to our requests and were even able to redesign the floor plan to fit our 12 person band! There is even a farm flat on the property where our bridal party stayed the night; it was super convenient for getting ready day-of and for helping pack up the next day. We knew we'd need additional time to clean up so the owners were kind enough to let us pay a little extra to hold onto the flat until noon, rather than the typical 10 am checkout, which was super helpful as we were able to collect all of our wedding decor there before the venue's 10 am cut-off and gave us two more hours to pack everything into our vehicles. Thanks again, Trent, Bridget and Staff at Of the Land!

Perfect Outdoor/Indoor Venue

My wedding in August 2023 at Of the Land was INCREDIBLE. The space that Trent and Bridgett have curated is just perfect if you are looking for a romantic, outdoorsy (but still very comfortable), fun and low-stress environment. The most common term our guests used to describe the venue/our wedding was "magical" and obviously I'm biased but I have to agree lol.

I could honestly go on for pages and pages about how beautiful the venue is, how great the food was, how many compliments we got on the location, and how wonderful the venue team was to work with. My very hard to please mother, who was worried about an outdoor wedding, had only great things to say about the venue (this was a feat in and of itself). It was the perfect blend of structured all-inclusive wedding (the farm flat, built-in Dotty bar, bartenders, napkins/tableware, ceremony area, THE ZINNIA GARDEN, the amazing food) and build-your-own vision on top of it. They were incredibly flexible about our decor, vendors, and the timeline of the day, so I was able to spend most of my wedding planning focusing on the details instead of starting from scratch, like a lot of outdoor venues would have to. You do have to bring your own alcohol but that was honestly so great because we could tailor our bar to our guests' preferences and save a ton of money compared to bar packages at other venues.

I had an embarrassing amount of questions in the planning process (ex, re alcohol, decor limitations, timeline structure, table arrangements, etc) and every question was answered promptly and professionally. Trent especially was fantastic - he called me the day before and the morning of the wedding to see if we needed anything and was even one of the people handing out appetizers during cocktail hour (which btw were DELICIOUS - please try the pickles you'll thank me). We had a kind of large seating chart that needed to be set up the morning of the wedding and he saved the day by letting us borrow his drill, because the screws with the sign had a weird type of bit that we didn't have. Just a testament to how caring and above-and-beyond the venue owners go to make sure their clients have an amazing day.

Another plus - our guests LOVED staying at firekeeper's and hitting the casino the night before and the night of the wedding (note, Firekeeper's changed their policy recently and if you want to get a room block there for a wedding, you have to book your rehearsal dinner there - kind of dumb but the venue has no control over it. We had our rehearsal dinner there and it was great so it ended up not being an issue anyway).

The ONLY worry I had with this venue was about the weather - obviously August is hot and we can't control the weather. But it ended up being a pretty mild day for August and, even though it was a little warm in the afternoon, the Greenhouse has a bunch of fans and a really pleasant crossbreeze when the sides are up. The day we got there and set things up was pretty uncomfortably hot outside, but it was very pleasant inside the Greenhouse.

Last thing - the barn cat hung out during our ceremony by the mulberry tree, it was so cute lol. Obviously he's not explicitly part of the venue's offerings but was such a cute bonus.

This is all to say: if you're looking for a fairytale hidden gem wedding venue with the kindest, most down-to-earth venue owners and delicious food, where you can build out and customize/personalize your day, this is the place!
