Farmington Gardens was the perfect place to host our wedding - the staff and venue were all we could've asked for and then some. From planning meetings to carrying out the wedding day, we could not be more pleased. Our coordinator Cheyenne especially made sure every detail was exactly how we wanted it to be and she was so incredibly attentive to detail! She was fun, professional, kind, and really has a gift for her job. We will always be grateful for the team that made our wedding dreams come true at Farmington Gardens!
I had my Hindu ceremony at Farmington Gardens a little over a month ago and it was such a seamless experience. From the moment we signed our contract I worked closely with Ashley from their team to make sure everything is organized and just the way we want it the day of. My family and I ended up catering from outside but the Farmington team was very helpful in setting everything up. Everywhere was clean and outside vendors were able to set up and work with the in-house team seamlessly. I received A LOT of compliments as the venue itself was so beautiful. HIGHLY recommend this venue for anyone who is planning to have an outdoor ceremony as their space is absolutely gorgeous during the warmer months with the greenery and flowers!
We got married at the Farmington Gardens in May 2023 and it was the most amazing experience! If you are looking for an elegant, fun, 5 star service venue you really shouldn’t be looking anywhere else. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the venue and their staff at Farmington gardens! We were originally planning to do an outdoor ceremony however it heavily rained that day so we had our ceremony instead in the greenhouse and OMG was it magical! So many people reached out to say how beautiful the space was and that it felt like being in a movie. The staff within minutes changed it over to move seamlessly into our cocktail hour which I was very impressed with. We decided to skip the first course for the meal and instead did the antipasto platter at cocktail hour which was just incredible!! We had many compliments about it. The drinks were excellent and the bartenders were fantastic. Our waitress Kim who took care of me and my husband all night was amazing and so attentive, we were so grateful. Ashley, our wedding coordinator was the most amazing. She worked with us patiently and was extremely thorough. The day of she made sure everything went seamlessly and I honestly didn’t worry about a thing! Everything the day of went so smoothly because of her. Also if I can give you one piece of advice for this venue it would be GET THE VENETIAN TABLE! It was SO impressive, I’d never seen so many amazing desserts in my life!! The guests raved about it and were even able to take some home to enjoy the following day which was very nice. I really liked that we could make changes to our package at this venue to fit our specific needs, they were extremely accommodating to allow us to have everything that we wanted for the day. The staff at Farmington gardens were so professional, pleasant and fun it really added to the day when some of the wait staff came out to sing and dance the last song with all of us! My husband and I look at each other all the time and say wow we had such a great wedding and I really believe a large part of that was having our wedding at Farmington Gardens.
Any questions?
I just had my bridal shower here this past weekend, and all I can say is WOW! Everything was amazing…the food was great, the mimosa bar was a big hit, and the space itself is just so gorgeous!! Everyone had a great time. I was extremely impressed by the communication with Katie, the event coordinator. She was very thorough, accommodating, answered all of our questions and had a bunch of great ideas for details that I hadn’t even considered (which I am very grateful for!). She was so great during the time leading up to the event and during the event itself, just an all around kind person who does her job extremely well. I can’t say enough good things about this place, I am so happy I had the shower here! And thank you Katie, for fixing my friends heel when it snapped off her shoe!! True dedication!!
Farmington Gardens was the perfect wedding venue with so much to offer. We were able to utilize their entire space, outdoor garden, greenhouse and ballroom for our 70 degree in November day and we couldn't have been happier. We had over 200 people attending and a 10 person band and not once felt crowded because of all the space available. Ashley was SO organized and helpful as our coordinator, we would have been lost without her especially the day of. The food was amazing & we got so many compliments from guests - love, love, love this place!
Ashley was great to work with. We made a lot of last minute changes and they were able to accommodate everything. The food was very good and the venue is beautiful.
We chose to have our daughter & fiancé’s Couple Shower here. Alissa was our planner & went above & beyond every step of the way! We met monthly & kept up to date with emails. She made you feel like you were her only party! The food was delicious & attention to detail was appreciated. Whatever idea we had, she helped bring it to life. The space was awesome - drinks & games in the green house. Dinner & dancing in the ballroom. Thank you for making this day so special!
I had my bridal shower here and loved it. Such a cute venue and the garden was beautiful too. We had brunch and the food was good.
Highly recommend Alissa as a coordinator. Fantastic to work with, she was very personable with extreme attention to detail. My daughter was beyond happy with her bridal shower, as were the guests!
We loved Farmington Gardens for many reasons. First off having a wedding coordinator included is amazing! Alyssa helped me with so much! She setup and cleaned up! She helped decorate my cake and did a great job with our sweetheart table. The venue looked amazing! All the costs were one bill which made it easy! We were so happy with this venue choice! I would recommend to anyone who doesn’t like surprise costs and who needs the extra hands on planning a wedding! Plus, you can’t beat open bar and a coordinator in one set price!
I cannot recommend Farmington Gardens enough. We had the best experience from booking to planning to the actual wedding day. The staff is amazing and so is the food. Everything was absolutely perfect. Alissa went above and beyond and we are so grateful!
I originally found Farmington Gardens on Facebook about 8-10 years ago. I remembered the beams and chandeliers looking beautiful, even without decorations. When we got engaged I knew it had to be the first place we toured. Our biggest consideration was that the Green House would make a beautiful Plan B in case of bad weather. I’m so grateful for our coordinator, Alissa. She was such a pleasure at every planning meeting and made the experience even more fun. We brought in minimal decor and she was able to make everything look stunning.
We got married at Farmington Gardens on 9/23/2022. We originally booked for 9/24/2021, but due to Covid, we pushed it back a year. They were so gracious and accommodating—no issues with pushing our date back and we didn’t incur any extra charges. Our wedding was fantastic!! Literally perfect from beginning to end. Ashley, our coordinator, was so patient with us throughout the whole planning process. We were very particular with miniscule items and she was able to accommodate all of our changes. All of our guests raved over the food! The loaded potato bar, pork chop entrée, and ice cream bar were especially hits! We were able to get cans of our favorite hard cider for the bar as our signature drinks, plus they had some fun cocktails and punches for the guests. The timeline of the day was perfect with huge support from our DJ, Michael Simonetta, who works really closely with this venue (highly recommend!). The grounds are beautiful and we loved having the options of different rooms for our guests (greenhouse, outside, and ballroom), we definitely utilized all 3 spaces. Both my husband and I couldn’t finish our meals, so we had them wrap them up for the next day. The bridal attendant told us multiple times the food was all wrapped up, but never put it in the fridge overnight so we lost out. This was the one issue of the whole day, so not really a big deal. Our wedding was the best time. I very much recommend having your wedding at Farmington Gardens!
Farmington Gardens was the perfect place to get married. The 3 main areas are the garden, the greenhouse, and the ballroom. We used the garden for our ceremony, the greenhouse for cocktail hour and the ballroom for the reception. All 3 are beautiful and I liked the flow from one to the next throughout the evening. Farmington Gardens made the planning much simpler by including so much in their package (e.g. food, drinks, cake, tables, decorations, etc.). I had a really good experience working with the venue's coordinator, Katie. She is very detail oriented and responsive to all of our questions. She struck a good balance of recommending things but also enabling us to make choices. We are probably less organized than your average couple but she made everything work. On the day of the event, she made sure everything ran smoothly and we got to focus on just enjoying ourselves. I highly recommend Katie and Farmington Gardens!
I cannot say enough great things to describe the venue. From the beautiful ceremony to picking up everything the following morning we could not have asked for a better venue. Courtney was our coordinator; she is absolutely amazing! The staff was awesome! Very attentive. And the food was awesome, if it was a restaurant we would come back for more! You will not be disappointed with this venue, beautiful big space covered in flowers during the summer time.
Ashley was an amazing coordinator. She answered my 1,000 emails in a timely manner and always with grace. I got a lot of compliments on the food. I loved the greenery room for cocktail hour and a great location for a ceremony incase it rained.
We had a fantastic experience with Farmington Gardens! The venue is perfect. The food was excellent. Our guests have had nothing but great things to say. They are extremely flexible, in terms of special food accommodations, and in terms of the ability to hold your event inside or outside. You can let them know two hours beforehand, and they will have it just right for you....this came in handy for us, as it stopped raining two hours before our ceremony and we were able to have it outside, where we wanted it! We worked with Ashley, who was very thorough and professional, with excellent attention to detail. We could not be any more happy with our wedding day. We loved Farmington Gardens!
We loved working with Farmington Gardens! Every single interaction was positive. Our wedding coordinator was Ashley, and she was AMAZING every step of the way. We decided to postpone our wedding by one year and FG made it so easy- we literally just picked a new date. Ashley checked in every few months for updates. The day of the wedding, she made the ballroom look GORGEOUS. She made the planning process so easy, and everything came to life beautifully. I can't say enough good things about Ashley and Farmington Gardens. Oh- the food was amazing too! I keep dreaming about it and wishing I could have it again! Highly recommend!
We absolutely loved working with Farmington Gardens! From our first tour to picking up our last items, every staff member was friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make our day better. Courtney was the coordinator for our July wedding and I can honestly say our wedding planning process and our wedding day would have been worse off without her. She gave us practical ideas that fit our budget and timeline, and got to know us so she could personalize our day to our needs.
The planning process with FG was efficient, with meetings scheduled throughout the process and some things organized through email/google sheets. The chef was extremely accommodating to dietary needs, making and labeling gluten-free choices. The food and drinks were incredible, amazing, fantastic, dream-worthy, and all our guests had great things to say about it! Service was impeccable, and their team works like a well-oiled machine.
The day of our wedding, the staff at FG was flexible to make sure guests were their most comfortable before/after our ceremony in 90 degree heat. Courtney and her staff made sure that we (bride/groom) did not have to problem-solve any issues that arose, they coordinated with our vendors directly. At the end of our event, staff members helped pack up items that we wanted to take with us, and we were able to come back the next morning for the rest of the items.
If you're looking for incredible food, a smooth planning process and helpful staff on wedding day, Farmington Gardens is the best place to go!
We had a wonderful experience working with Farmington Gardens from start to finish! We had to postpone our wedding celebration a year due to COVID but had no issues doing so. Ashley, our coordinator, helped to make the wedding planning process so easy & organized which was so appreciated! Every detail was thought of and fully executed on our big day!
All of our guests raved about the food which we had so much fun choosing at the tasting event months before. The grounds are absolutely stunning with bright, blooming flowers everywhere. We loved having the option to give guests the outdoor space to sit around the fire pit or play lawn games. One of the most unique parts of this place is the stunning greenhouse which was used for cocktail hour & was also the location of the bar. The staff on the day of our wedding were so upbeat and fun (they even joined us on the dance floor)! I didn't have to worry about a thing because I knew that Ashley had it all under control! We would highly recommend checking out Farmington Gardens to host your special day!
I love this venue, I love the food, and the people. Guests were raving about the delicious food, so we were beyond happy. Also, with COVID and multiple postponing, I had heard horror stories about venues, and I luckily, cannot relate. They could not be more accommodating about the entire situation.
Ashley was our coordinator and she was the ultimate yes woman. There was never a moment where I heard ‘no we cannot do that’. She provided recommendations too that helped me out a lot. She met with us whenever we needed her, even being out of state we communicated effortlessly. She is the best.
Also the JOP that performed our ceremony was amazing. He made everything personal, and made us feel so special during our day.
Most people have an idea of what they want their wedding day to look like, how they want it to flow, the environment they want to be surrounded by.
The first time we saw Farmington Gardens we were hooked, it was beautiful, the landscaping has most any picture backdrop you could look for and was impeccable any time we dropped by in every season.
What truly makes Farmington Gardens more unique is their wedding coordinator, Courtney. Someone who treats your wedding as special as if it were her own. We planned on a 2020 wedding/reception, but COVID had other plans from what we had envisioned and rescheduling with them was a breeze. Courtney and Farmington Gardens were beyond flexible and informative, the moment they knew something about changes in restrictions we knew. Courtney helped us negotiate every obstacle in planning, provided input on how to approach any and every part of wedding planning. When it came down to the wedding day, every bride/groom should be able to enjoy the day without worry, because of Courtney that was exactly what we were able to do. Courtney handled everything from keeping us moving smoothly with time, bustling dresses, answering question and coordinating all of our vendors. We were really just able to focus on us with complete trust and knowledge she had everything else handled.
The venue, food, drinks and décor provided by Farmington Gardens were absolutely perfect, we have received so much positive feedback from all of the guests who were able to attend.
My husband and I got married at Farmington Gardens in June of 2021. Since selecting this venue we had nothing but great experiences. Ashley our coordinator was PHENOMENAL, she was so incredibly helpful, responsive, and fun to work with. The whole day went so smoothly and there was zero stress because I knew we were in very capable hands. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good the food was (and how great the portion size was). Definitely recommend and am so thrilled that we had our big day here!
I cannot say enough good things about Farmington Gardens - this venue seriously made our wedding. Even though it poured all day and we weren't able to be out on the gorgeous grounds, nobody cared because the indoor amenities are flawless as well. Courtney is a GODDESS - truly I would not have gotten through any of this without her. From the first meeting through the last song of the wedding night, everything was executed perfectly. The food was SO good, cocktail hour in the greenhouse is stunning, and the beams in the ballroom are picture perfect. If Farmington Gardens has your date open, book it.
This place is such a hidden gem! Tucked away, once on the grounds, you feel like you're in your own magical world. Being the only wedding for the whole day we got full access to all the grounds. Which are STUNNING. Our pictures are incredible because of how beautiful the landscaping is. It is the perfect combo of rustic chic. We originally were supposed to get married in 2020 and well that didn't happen. FG was seriously the best. They worked with us and let us hold multiple dates. They were accommodating, flexible and responsive. We never felt unsure of what was going to happen to the business and they always kept us in the loop. Choosing our 2021 date was even easier. We got married May 7, 2021 and it was nothing but amazing and unforgettable. We got married in the greenhouse which is magical. Then you walk into the rustic ballroom with stunning chandeliers. The ballroom is 100% what you want to make of it. The whole thing was a vibe. The food was phenomenal. Every single staff member was incredible. So attentive and so on it. I could never thank Ashley our coordinator enough. Being able to trust her to just run the show allowed me to completely enjoy my day! I can't recommend this place enough and I hope to have my baby shower in the greenhouse someday!
I honestly cannot rave enough about my experience with Farmington Gardens. We were able to work with Courtney, who helped us replan our large wedding multiple times due to Covid. In the end, we had a beautiful dinner reception with 25 of our guests in the green house room. Courtney made it look like a dream- she though out ever detail and made the experience so personal. We were able to reschedule our large reception for next October (we are so excited for 2.0!). Between the amazing food and gorgeous outdoor space, it was a perfect night that my guests still talk about. The actual garden and lawn make you feel like you're in your own private world, and our photos in the green house room are AMAZING...it's the best lighting at night. We were so appreciative of Farmington Garden's flexibility during the planning process...it removed all the stress of replanning a wedding multiple times. My husband and I are so thankful to have been able to work with Courtney (she's truly so talented) and to have our wedding dream really come to life.
My husband and I were set to be married at Farmington Gardens in April 2020 - but we had to postpone one month before because of COVID. FG worked with us to set a new date in August. Unfortunately, we decided to cancel the large celebration planned and have a very small ceremony with intent to have a much larger celebration in a few years. When we cancelled, we were asked if we would be willing to accept only 90% of what we paid to go towards the food tasting and our event coordinators time. We said absolutely as we wanted to work with the venue because they had been so wonderful. They told us that the payment could not be refunded within 7 days post our event date and we said no problem as understood the situation and did not want to make it more difficult for them. It has now been over 90 days past our event and the owners are not responding to my calls or emails for the update. The events coordinators are left to try and provide updates, but they do not have authority in this area and cannot do much but pass on my message. I even took time to drive an hour and half to the venue to get some answers, and still the owners have not called me to discuss payment arrangements. We are very understanding people, especially since I work in finance and I see the toll the pandemic is taking on this industry, but my husband and I deserve respect enough for communication. While we understand the venue is hurting for business, we also need our money for our personal lives and should not have to suffer even more. We were open to working with the venue on a payment plan but now think legal action is the only way to get their attention. We planned on having many future events at FG but now, will never work with them because of such bad treatment during a tough time for everyone.
Simply put - the FG Family made our dreams come true.
With everything that has gone on this year, our wedding on August 8th was the perfect bright spot, and Farmington Gardens was the BEST venue for us. We were originally scheduled at the North House, in Avon, Connecticut (an affiliate venue to FG with the same family ownership) but postponed our March 28 wedding until August 8. We paid close attention to COVID restrictions and were mindful of our options during this time. Once we determined we would need to move our wedding completely outside with a significantly reduced guest list, Farmington Gardens and the Chabot family immediately stepped in to accommodate us. Courtney quickly became our hero - and the flexibility, attention to detail and consideration that the entire team showed us set us up for a completely safe, COVID-friendly celebration.
Our family and friends STILL rave about the outdoor ceremony space, which was set for appropriate social distancing; the cocktail hour held outside with delicious drinks and hors d'oeuvres; the tented space with string lights to set a warm ambience; and the kind, attentive staff. This venue space and staff exceeded all of our expectations - even those that we had for our original wedding day.
If you are looking for a venue that includes spectacular food and connections to all of the top wedding vendors (photography, videography, DJ, etc.) in the tri-state area, this is 100% the place for you.
Global pandemic and all other things aside, the Chabot family and their team of coordinators are experts at making dreams come true. We will remember this day forever, and cannot wait to hopefully return for family and friends' weddings in the future.
Farmington Gardens is a stunning venue, with gorgeous flowers, beautiful ceremony areas, and large ballroom. The staff there is incredible. We worked with Ashley Ferreri and would work with her again in a heart beat. Everyone we spoke with was incredibly helpful and understanding. We are a multi-faith couple and planned two ceremonies the same day at the venue. They were really flexible to make sure we got what we needed to celebrate our faiths and culture. Additionally, we are a couple affected by the coronavirus and the venue was very understanding and flexible with the couples to give them what they needed in terms of postponing etc.
Farmington Gardens was the absolute best venue, we got married at St. Patrick's Church and this was the perfect location for travel for our guests! From the greenhouse cocktail hour to the outdoor garden, it was absolutely beautiful! We loved the rustic feel to the ballroom but most of all had the most amazing wedding planner, Courtney Canas, who really put our vision to life with every detail. Our guests raved about the wedding cake and all the food and appetizers. Everything about this venue was perfect and the entire staff was so friendly and hardworking. They all truly made this the best day of our lives so we thank you! We would recommend this venue 100%!
We could not have been happier with Farmington Gardens! Our day of coordinator, Ashley, was great at responding to my emails and was keen on all the details.
In fact, it was her list that helped me figure out what to do next and what I was still missing. Every detail of the day was perfect! The food was incredible. We were very happy after our initial tasting, but the food the day was even better! We had his and hers cocktails as part of the open bar and their staff went out of their way to help design drinks that we would love - including making habanero infused tequila! Some of the things that our guests commented on included: how great the food was, how friendly and helpful the staff was, how they weren't stuck in the ballroom all night (the glass atrium was a great place to talk and is where we had our Venetian table and late night taco bar - outside we opted for a fire pit and s'mores and people were gathered out there too!). Another added bonus is that they only do one event per day so we were able to arrive 3 hours early to get ready and take pictures before the guests started arriving. I cannot say enough about how perfectly everything went and I would recommend them to anyone!
Our wedding was on August 31st and the day was perfect! We couldn’t have chosen a better venue. Working with Courtney as our coordinator was absolutely amazing. She was extremely helpful and so organized with our timeline. She would always be available to meet throughout the year and everything went so smoothly on our wedding day. She even created our chalkboard signs that were inspired by Pinterest. Everything we wanted for our special day she made happen!
Farmington Gardens was an AMAZING place to have my wedding reception. Courtney and her team made sure every little detail was perfect so my husband and I could completely relax and enjoy the day! The food was incredible and the cake was also delicious! It was definitely the best food I have ever had at a wedding. The venue was beautiful and I would not have changed a thing about my wedding day at Farmington Gardens!
If you are looking for the perfect venue that has it all and then some then look no further then Farmington Gardens. We had the pleasure of working with Ashley starting a year out from our wedding and every three months leading up to the big day. She was so explicit when answering any questions and always responded promptly to every email. They also have you attend a tasting event a few months before your wedding to pick your food.. it was so much fun and there was so much delicious food! The day of the wedding was more than I could have asked for. Ashley made everything on paper that we planned for a year completely come to life. She made sure our bridal party and immediate family were taken care of by giving us our own waitress who checked in on us very often. You also get to create a timeline with her which you can review and change as much as you need to. The week of your wedding she reaches out to all of your vendors with information including your timeline so everyone is on the same page upon arrival. My wedding day went smoother than I could have imagined. The venue itself is stunning and its own little oasis. The ceremony area is fully shaded under a pergola and two large trees. The landscape is lush, green and so colorful with a greenhouse for cocktail hour. Thank you to FG for making our day perfect!
Courtney and the whole team at Farmington Gardens made our experience simple and easy! I toyed with the idea of a barn wedding but knew that would be a lot more work and stress with bringing in the vendors, caterers, etc. I could not be more happy that I chose to go with Farmington Gardens. Honestly, they handled all the details and made sure everything looked beautiful and delivered on my vision! Every time people would ask me how I was doing leading up to the wedding, the answer was easy. I was great and just fine. Courtney made the entire process so easy and they have everything mapped out so well that I was never really too stressed (at least not when it came to the venue details). I knew they had everything under control. I also received so many compliments about how beautiful the setting was and what a wonderful location for a wedding. May was a rainy month, but mother nature was on our side and we were able to have the ceremony I wanted outside, followed by cocktail hour in the greenhouse and then the reception. I love love love all the different settings / areas at Farmington Gardens and would recommend it to anyone getting married in the area. I'm now thinking that I want someone I know to get married there so I can go back and enjoy it again!! Thank you so much for making my day so perfect. I'm just waiting for all the photos so I can relive it and look at the beautiful setting all over again!!
I HAD MY DREAM WEDDING HERE! We got married Memorial Day weekend with about 180-190 guests. We had Ashley as our coordinator who made sure everything went EXACTLY as we wanted. She was punctual, responsive, and had all her ducks in a row. Ashley’s assistant was also unbelievable, and I knew she cared when I saw her literally running my Justin Bieber stand up over to me as fast as she could! I recommend this venue for anyone who wants coordinators to help them fulfill their dream wedding and have all the details they planned out fulfilled flawlessly.
This was the PERFECT VENUE for our ceremony and reception. Beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, wedding food that is *actually* delicious (as every vendor and many guests told us), and utterly amazing service from beginning to end. Kalee was our wedding coordinator and she was an utter pleasure to work with – so detail-oriented, so professional, and so *calm*, even in the midst of the reception when my husband and I were throwing off the schedule through excessive chattiness. She was so on top of everything from beginning to end and so warm and patient with us as we changed our minds, waffled on big decisions, ran behind on booking vendors, and made big and complicated requests (we were able to change a bunch of dishes to meet our guests’ dietary requirements, create our own mocktails, and even source all halal meat, which still blows my mind). The wedding day itself was a breeze for us. The rehearsal with Kalee the day before set our minds at rest about who was doing what when and where. And all we had to do was drop all our stuff off at the rehearsal the day before and it was set up perfectly on the day! Furthermore, the amazing FG staff then had it ready for pickup the morning after so that we could be entirely focused on the wedding and our guests day of. There was actually a thunderstorm the night of our wedding (during the reception, when we were indoors) and they had everything so under control that we didn’t even know til after! After the rain had stopped, the FG staff had our fire pit up and running in no time and our guests were getting a kick out of roasting marshmallows for their s’mores. They are total pros. Our wedding planning process involved some definite ups and downs and some major upheavals (we wound up getting legally married in advance), and FG was a source of calm and structure in the midst of all that. Seriously, such an amazing venue and such an amazing staff.
Best ever!
We just got married here on 11/4. The venue is beautiful and the food is amazing! Indoor and outdoor ceremony options. The factor that sets this venue apart from everyone else is Courtney Canas, the event coordinator! SHE IS AMAZING. She is so organized, it made planning smooth and stress free. Somehow she turned all of my ideas and boxes of decor into my dream wedding. I cannot saw enough about her and this venue.
Highly recommend checking it out
Our wedding day was September 21, 2018. I cannot even begin to express how perfect our wedding was at Farmington Gardens. Not only is the venue absolutely breathtaking and the food delicious, Courtney (and the rest of the FG staff) were absolutely wonderful to work with!! From the first moment we toured to our wedding day, Courtney was kind, calming, personable, and EXTREMELY helpful!! She met with us every three months to check in and make sure we were staying on track with our planning. She offered wonderful and honest suggestions in regards to decorations and choosing various vendors.
On the day of our wedding, my bridal party and I got ready at the Farmington Gardens, and Courtney was there from 9:00 am to the end of the night (12:00 am). She set up all of our decorations, brought us drinks, made sure we were on time, and constantly checked in with us throughout the night. When we picked up our decorations the following morning, everything was labeled and organized by Courtney and the other staff members of FG.
My husband and I truly could not have picked a better venue to have our wedding and we are forever grateful to the FG, and most importantly to Courtney, for everything they did to make our day so special! I would highly recommend Farmington Gardens to anyone! You will not be disappointed!
From the initial meeting, Farmington Gardens staff made everything easy and efficient. They accommodated our every request and made the process with the other vendors seamless. The food was outstanding; our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was. We highly recommend Farmington Gardens.
Our wedding was on October 13, 2018, and what a spectacular day it was! From our first tour of the venue to the day of the wedding all of the staff were amazing! We had Kalee as our planner and along with it being her wedding year she gave us so much support and advise for each and every question, and we had a lot! She was always easy to get in touch with and responded promptly. We didn’t have our ceremony at the Venue but she even gave us some advise as to how to plan our Church ceremony and what we would need. They have 1 wedding a day so from start to finish you feel special on YOUR day there, that was a big deciding factor for us in finding our venue. Also they have a multitude of decorating options to customize the space to what you want. Then the day of Kalee was by my side making sure we were taken care of which I was so grateful for, the day goes by so fast but she slowed it down by checking in. We also got nothing but rave reviews about the food! The food is DELICIOUS make sure you eat everything! The tasting was also so much fun, definitely bring parents or best man and maid of honor it’s a lot of food so you’ll need people to help! They also have a cake option at the venue so the planning was honestly so so easy! One stop shop which was great when you have a billion other things on your mind. Also they have an on-site Gardner who makes the venue look amazing outside as well so you don’t have to think about flowers outside! I really can not say enough good things about The Farmington Gardens, I wish I could relive our wedding day over and over again! I was just simply so perfect!
We got married June 22nd, 2018 and cannot say enough fantastic thing about this venue. The staff are top notch, and our planner Kaylee was so accommodating as well knowledgeable to help us plan out special day. We received so many positive comments about the food, venue and staff we were thrilled and highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a wedding in the beautiful New England area.
Where to begin... Farmington Gardens was the first stop the day we went to look at wedding venues. From that first moment forward, I knew that is the place was "the one". We went and looked at some other places, but nothing compared to the feeling that Farmington Gardens gave us. We quickly placed a deposit on our date and everything was smooth sailing from there. The reception itself is breathtaking-- perfect for an early June wedding. The grounds are beautiful. The building is beautiful. On top of such a beautiful setting, the staff at Farmington Gardens are absolutely amazing. We worked with Courtney as our wedding coordinator, and she was a rock star! She always answered any questions we had and made sure that our wedding would be perfect. Now on to the food... also top notch! All of our guests still tell us the food was amazing (especially dessert!). One of our favorite parts of Farmington Gardens is that they tried to accommodate pretty much any request we had. My husband and I are really into craft beer, so Courtney tried to see if one of the local breweries would supply a keg for our wedding. They couldn't, but FG already had a great rotation of beers anyway! Our signature cocktails, created by FG staff, were also absolutely amazing. Farmington Gardens met and exceeded every expectation we had. It truly was the best day ever. We could not have imagined getting married anywhere else!
Completely exceeded our expectations! Kalee was simply incredible to work with. Very responsive and helped throughout the entire planning process. I was already impressed before my wedding day. But that day, I was blown away! Everything ran perfectly, any problem that you could think of arising, Kalee already had a solution for. So many people approached me at the wedding to say how incredibly impressed they were with the space, the food and the atmosphere. My wedding day was perfect and in large part because of the staff at Farmington Gardens.
My husband and I got married at Farmington Gardens on August 25, 2018 and we cannot say enough about how amazing this venue is. We fell in love with the beautiful grounds, the unique greenhouse and ballroom right away. After our first visit to the venue, we knew this was the perfect place. We were beyond impressed with our wedding coordinator, Courtney, she was very responsive and attentive from the minute we contacted her about scheduling our visit to the venue. We met with her multiple times leading up to our wedding day, she always had great suggestions and was so organized. After our church ceremony Courtney and the Farmington Garden’s staff were waiting outside for our wedding party’s arrival. Courtney was a huge help especially the day of the wedding. Courtney was always there making sure everything was going according to plan and assisting anyone with anything they needed.
All of our guests raved about the food from the Passed Hors D’oeuvres all the way through the dessert; the cannolis were a huge hit! The chef was also extremely accommodating with any of our guests dietary restrictions! We highly recommend Courtney and the entire Farmington Gardens team for any occasion! We loved every moment of our big day! Thank you to the whole staff for making it so special
The staff and experience at Farmington Gardens was the most incredible experience of our lives! We were able to meet with Kalee, our wedding coordinator included with the venue, multiple times to stay on track as we got ready for our big day. Kalee is so kind, professional and genuine in everything she does! Everything is included when you book with Farmington Gardens so there are no surprises when trying to stick with your budget.
The grounds and buildings are stunning. We wanted our ceremony to be outside, but on our wedding day a pop-up thunderstorm required us to make a last minute change to being in the greenhouse. Everyone just moved inside and no one missed a beat with allowing our day to continue!
The quality of the food and the amount of choice you get us unreal. The tasting process allows you to make all the decisions that will best fit your day. Everything's made to order and they can accommodate all the different dietary restrictions in today's world. The in-house pastry chef made our sweet heart cake along with the “Venetian Table” of desserts that our guests thoroughly enjoyed!
Having our wedding at Farmington Gardens was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made and we cannot recommend them more highly!!
Farmington gardens is an incredible venue for weddings! The grounds are gorgeous with various perennials and flowers. My daughters wedding was June 2018 and Courtney was so easy to work with and accommodated all our needs. She really went out of her way to ensure that everything was perfect for Lindsay’s wedding. I would highly recommend Farmington gardens and Courtney to host your upcoming event!
We had our wedding on August 4, 2018 and it was the most perfect day. The venue is gorgeous, both inside and out. We were lucky enough that the weather cleared up and we got to have our ceremony outside. The grounds are expertly cared for and are so beautiful. The greenhouse is a fun and different setting for cocktail hour, and the reception hall with the high ceilings and chandeliers is simple and elegant. The staff was very attentive, and made everything very easy for us. We worked with Courtney as our coordinator, and she was wonderful. Everything went exactly as we planned, and we have her to thank for that! She spent a lot of time planning and communicating with us, and expertly ran the show the day of. The food is also spectacular and we have been getting compliments since about the dinners and cupcakes. Thank you to the team for creating our dream wedding!!! We hope to get invited back as guests here so we can enjoy another Farmington Gardens wedding :)
Farmington Gardens was amazing. I've been through 2 of my sisters' wedding and now my own, and Farmington Gardens was the best venue by far. Farmington Gardens was incredibly helpful, and had the best value of any venue we had looked into. I got the wedding of my dreams right within my budget! The food is delicious, the CAKE WAS DIVINE.
The ballroom and greenhouse was perfect for our event. The greenhouse was great for hor d'ouvres and mingling while the ballroom was pristinely elegant for the main event. Kaylee went above and beyond to make sure everything went perfectly.
It downpoured on my wedding day but it didn't even matter because the indoor accomodations were more than enough for our guests and we had a splendid time.
Doug and I could not even begin to describe how happy we are with our wedding on 6/16/18 at Farmington Gardens! Our day was truly our dream vision brought to life! I knew when Doug and I got engaged, I wanted our wedding day to be extremely personal. Farmington Gardens allowed us to bring all our decorations and truly made us feel special. The venue is absolutely stunning, the food is FANTASTIC, & the staff is even better! Kalee our wedding coordinator, I don't even know where to begin to praise this women! She is AMAZINNGGGGGG!! Kalee made all our wedding dreams come true. Seriously ALL of them! From the moment of our first meeting, I knew we were in good hands. Kalee listened and helped walk us through ever inch of planning our day. She is honestly the sweetest person I've ever met and she was made for this job! She was so well organized & brought even the smallest details and requests to life! I honestly had a lottt of decorations and a vision of how I wanted the venue to be set up. I even offered to help set up since I felt bad leaving the big task all to Kalee! Let me tell you though, Kalee was not flustered by one bit of the decorations we brought! She truly brought my vision to life! So much so, that when I walked into the venue prior to our first look-I cried! It was truly stunning and I could not have imagined it looking as perfect as it did. Kalee is so talent, so kind, & so genuine. She really cares about her couples and it was so evident throughout the whole planning process. THANK YOU Kalee for making the wedding of our dreams come to life!!
From the moment I saw this venue I immediately knew this is where I wanted my wedding and I booked it right away and I am so thankful we did. We got married this past Saturday and everything was absolutely perfect thanks to Courtney Canas our coordinator, and all the other amazing staff. Throughout the entire process Courtney worked with us step by step to make sure every single detail was perfect and everything went off without a hitch. The grounds, greenhouse, and ballroom are all so beautiful, and most importantly THE FOOD IS AMAZING!! I can’t say enough great things about Courtney and Farmington Gardens, and if I could give more stars I would. Thank you guys for giving us the wedding of our dreams! - Ashley & Dave
We chose Farmington Gardens to host our May wedding and Ashley was our coordinator, and she and her team did an amazing job. During the whole process Ashley was attentive, thorough, and so very nice. Farmington Gardens itself is beautiful and the food and dessert they provide is some of the best we’ve ever had. They definitely give you your money’s worth and we could not be happier with how our day operated. Ashley personally oversaw everything and made sure we were as comfortable as possible. Thanks Ashley for making our day amazing!
My daughter was married here on April 7, 2018. Everything about the event went perfectly. Kailee is the wedding coordinator and she did a fantastic job taking care of every detail. The space is beautiful, the green house is lovely for the wedding ceremony and the cocktail hour. My daughter and her new husband had their dream wedding and are so very happy. We got many compliments on the space and the food.
Five stars!
I have Kalee and all the staff of Farmington Gardens to thank for my dream wedding!!! My now-husband and I have a very large family and were expecting around 300 guests at our wedding. Not only could Farmington Gardens accommodate that many guests but they could provide different sites for ceremony, cocktail, and reception without having to bus my guests to multiple locations. Everything was beautifully set up and my guests are still talking about how amazing the wedding was! Kalee was our wedding planner and I honestly can't speak any higher of her! She was beyond amazing and my mom, mother in law and I thank God she was there to help us through this journey. She was professional, organized, and kept us all very calm while directing us seamlessly through the planning process and the big day. The whole day itself was perfect, the food was amazing, the drinks were amazing, the locations and decorations were amazing and the staff were the icing on the cake! We can't thank Farmington Gardens enough for making it all possible! So many other venues were too strict or too expensive to make my dream wedding a reality but Farmington Gardens was flexible in all the right areas and affordable enough to allow me room to get the additions I wanted.
We held our wedding ceremony and reception at Farmington Gardens in August. The planning process was very easy (even being out of state) and our coordinator, Courtney, was extremely helpful. Farmington Gardens hosted one large tasting event with all the summer weddings and it was really helpful because they offered pretty much the entire menu of items to taste with several decor ideas on display. The gardens, greenhouse, and ballroom were all set up beautifully the day of our wedding. The level of coordination and work done by Farmington Gardens staff really helped relieve a lot of stress on our wedding day.
My husband and I could not be happier that we chose to get married at Farmington Gardens! Working with Courtney was an absolute pleasure from start to finish! She made sure every detail was set well in advance so that there was zero stress on our wedding day. Although we had planned to have the ceremony outside, we had to move it into the greenhouse because of rain…and everything was still flawless! The entire staff was wonderful and the food was FANTASTIC! So many of our guests commented that it was the nicest wedding they had ever been to. Farmington Gardens is simply the best!
Just got married at Farmington Gardens last night, and if I could give a rating higher than 5 stars I would! From the decor, to the staff, to the food, to the grounds and venue itself Farmington Gardens is absolute perfection! The landscaping is meticulous and the grounds are absolutely gorgeous. The head chef introduced himself after our delicious dinner, and even let me take home a doggy bag when I couldn’t finish! We started our planning process with Kalee, and transitioned to Courtney when Kalee earned a (well deserved) promotion! Both women were extremely knowledgable, kind, approachable, and accommodating. Courtney was absolutely phenomenal and helped me organize and plan for months before the big day. She responded to every email and question nearly immediately and even made accommodations to allow us to play a video over the projector during my father/daughter dance. My wedding would literally not have been the night it was without her, I may have hugged her more than some of my own family! I would recommended Courtney, Kalee, and the entire team to ANYONE looking to host ANY event! Thank you for helping us have our dream wedding and hosting the best day of our lives! We will forever be grateful to you ❤️
i had my wedding at Farmington Gardens on August 26, i can not even begin to rave about how smoothly and beautiful everything was. Courtney and Kalee made me feel so comfortable since the day my husband and i stepped foot on that property. This venue is obviously gorgeous and everything we wanted. But we would not have chosen it if it was not for those two girls. we had the pleasure of working with both of them and they were so incredible. Kalee helped us plan in the beginning but then took on a high position so we were given Courtney as our wedding coordinator and i don't think ive ever trusted someone more when planning something for me in my life. Everything was stunning, perfect, exactly how i wanted it and she was 100% the majority of the reason why. Not to mention the food was DELICIOUS, the servers / bartenders/ etc were absolutely incredible. There really are no words for how amazing everything went. thank you FG for making mine and Zach wedding a realty, dealing with all my annoying questions, answering all my emails, sitting down with us, and for making our day perfect. We love you guys!
The other reviews don't lie - this venue was incredible to work with. Kalee is a wedding planning goddess and was so great to work with. She really thought of everything and guided us through the whole process. Everything here was just so easy, there was never a "no we can't do that" for every question and request we had. Because there's only one event per day it was so nice to just drop everything off the day before at our rehearsal and didn't have to worry about a thing. Great rain option in the greenhouse, super flexible about literally everything, great food, 100% stress-free from the very first meeting. Seriously I can't say enough great things about this venue, if you want to enjoy your wedding and the process, choose farmington gardens. Thank you Kalee and Farmington Gardens!
Where do I even start.... Our wedding was 6/17/17 and everything was PERFECT- and this was all due to the hard work of the wedding coordinators at Farmington Gardens! The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous and the food was PHENOMENAL- but the entire wedding process- they have that down to a science! The food tasting was flawlessly executed and we had meetings every 3 months with our coordinator. They had limitless amounts of great suggestions and ideas for us- there was never any mishap, or any moments when I thought they were leaving something out or confusing my event with another. They were constantly in contact with me and even took it upon themselves to confirm all vendors the week before my wedding so I wouldn't have to. The day of the wedding was executed PERFECTLY. I can't tell you how many compliments we got on the staff, the venue, the food, the service, EVERYTHING!!! I could not imagine getting married anywhere else- this is truly the most magical place on earth. Courtney and Kalee are the most talented wedding planners and are the best in the business- I cannot recommend Farmington Gardens enough!!!!
We had our wedding here on June 3rd, and it couldn't have been more perfect!! The venue looked breathtaking all decorated, our guests couldn't stop gushing over how much they loved the greenhouse area and the outdoor patio with the firepit. Our guests also can not stop raving about the food. So many people have told us it is the best food they have ever had at a wedding. Courtney and Kalee were the sweetest and most professional wedding coordinators EVER! Everything went off without a hitch from the time we booked the venue to the day of. I hope I get invited to a wedding here myself so I can enjoy it all over again!
We couldn't have been happier with every aspect of our daughter's reception. Kalee's professionalism, organizational skills and enthusiasm for the event made our involvement painless. Kalee's coordinator experience allowed her to bring up details during our meetings that we wouldn't have thought about. The reception area was spacious and beautifully decorated. The green house, patio with fire pit, and lawn for lawn games provided a multiple of areas for people to enjoy themselves. The food was delicious, from the appetizers to the dessert. Especially the bison. Thank you to Kalee and all the staff in making the reception a huge success. farmingtongardensct.com
Our wedding was perfect thanks to Kalee and the staff at Farmington Gardens. Kalee was amazing during the planning and was so attentive the day of. The venue itself is gorgeous And our guests raved about the food.
Married - July 17, 2016
Ceremony and Reception was at Farmington Gardens.
Amazing Service! They had the best staff to aid us in our adventure to get married. Kalee was our organizer and she did above and beyond to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams. We had some unique changes to satisfy our Beauty and the Beast themed wedding and she was able to piece or vision together with our views and plenty of ideas that came from her.
If you want a custom wedding with great food and great staff then Farmington Gardens is for you!!!
If you have trouble with finding vendors for your wedding Kalee knew very trustworthy vendors who were in our price range and were very reliable!!
The Farmington Gardens and their entire staff are phenomenal. I had fallen in love with the venue the moment we toured it, but Kalee truly made my vision a reality. During the entire process she was only an email away, responding so quickly and always being calm and helpful. Everything was perfect and all my guests were talking about what a wonderful time they had, and that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Kalee and the entire staff went above and beyond all of our expectations to make our day perfect and unforgettable.
This was the first place that we visited when looking for wedding venues and knew immediately it was the perfect fit for us. They were so accommodating to all our requests especially since we were having a nontraditional Indian-American wedding. The thing we loved most about the venue was the privacy and freedom to have the exact type of wedding you want. Since you have the place to yourself, you don't have to worry about seeing other wedding parties there during your own. Their packages are also so customizable and the work very closely with you to make sure everything that you want is prepared and displayed how you like. Kalee, the event coordinator, was such a tremendous help. She is very organized and sweet. She makes sure to meet with the couples every few weeks leading up to the wedding to see what progress they've made in the planning process, she goes over every detail with you which was amazing. She always immediately responded to emails and had an answer for every question that we asked. For someone who had a lot of DIY projects for their wedding, Kalee and her team were very patient and helped put together every idea that I had on that day. The staff was so helpful and friendly with our guests. Although we didn't get to taste the food, our guests said it was amazing especially the desserts which was way more than what we had imagined. Our sweetheart wedding cake was also from the pastry chef at the gardens and it looked and tasted amazing. We only have good things to say about this place and would highly recommend to any couple looking for a wedding venue.
We absolutely loved our wedding at Farmington Gardens. From day one, Kalee was very helpful, organized, and quickly responded to any questions. She really helped make our visions come to life. On our wedding day, Kalee ensured everything ran smoothly, and we didn't have to worry about the timeline. The food was wonderful, and portions were perfect. The waitstaff was also great, and ensured we had food and drinks during cocktail hour; even trekking to meet us in the field in back. Our guests have also commented on how friendly the bar service was. The atmosphere was a mix of rustic and romantic with a little glitter tossed in, which was perfect for us. We would definitely recommend this venue to future couples.
Farmington Gardens created my fairytale wedding and then some. Working with Kalee was seamless. She was organized, responsive and ensured that all my questions, worries or ideas were completely addressed. This venue was top-notch and for a price that is extremely competitive with the amazing service you receive. We bargained a little bit, and took off the appetizer and 1 hor d'euovre and were able to shave off a couple dollars per head, which makes a big difference in the numbers for cost. The vibe for this place is fun and relaxing, but yet very sophisticated and just NICE. The food was out of this world. Our guests are still raving about how good the food was. Also the bartenders were so friendly and made any drink we wanted. I would 100% recommend this venue to any bride or groom. You will not be let down! Even the day of, the staff were so attentive and always making sure I had a drink in hand and all was going well.
Loved everything about this place! Kalee was amazing at keeping us organized. The chef was absolutely wonderful! He came out to all the tables during dinner to make sure everyone was happy. So many options from food to decor. Very helpful. The Gardens and green house are beautiful not to mention the gorgeous chandeliers in the rustic dining room. We wouldn't have changed a thing about our special day! Thank you to the staff at Farmington gardens.
Farmington Gardens went above and beyond any expectations I had! Everyone commented on how beautiful the place was and how everything was just perfect. They did an amazing job and I can not put into words how happy we were with the outcome.
The food was AMAZING and people are still talking about it.
They took our wedding vision and made it a reality and I am truly so grateful. We wish we could relive that day over and over again.
Don't be deceived by the friendly smiles. The management of the operation is poor. They ran out of food during the dinner portion. They didn't have adequate staffing to serve the event. Although the planners are pleasant, the follow through when it matters most is poor.
