t the rest of the wedding activities were at Garden Grove. The staff was amazing and put thought into every detail. On our actual wedding day, we had torrential downpours. The original plan was to have the reception outside in tents but the terrible rain made that impossible. The staff worked quickly to move us inside.

It's totally worth it to have all of your guests in one place.
