The Florentine Gardens exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I just knew it was the place I wanted to get married. We worked with Maria, who ...is truly one of the most down-to-earth, genuine, and funny people you will ever meet. She not only helped us lock in our date, but she was always available to answer any question at any time. She was so kind to my family and made the entire process feel effortless.
I also want to highlight Sal Travis and his incredible team, who handled all in house services such as lighting, tech etc. When we first met, Sal guided us through decisions I didn’t even know needed to be made—like choosing lighting colors for different parts of the night. We also had the privilege of working with his videographers, Jesse, Tom and Jorge. They met me early in the morning while my bridesmaids and I were taking photos in our pajamas, and they were so funny, grounded, and easy to be around. They made me feel comfortable the entire day.
What absolutely blew us away was the same-day edit. Throughout the day, the team gathered footage from morning through the reception and created a stunning video that was shown to all our guests before we left. I’m not exaggerating when I say every single person was in awe—both at how beautiful the video was and at how quickly it was put together. Our friends and family couldn’t believe they were seeing footage of themselves from the reception in the final edit.
Our DJ also went above and beyond. We worked with DJ Tony Gia, and he was incredible. We spoke with him just a few days before the wedding, and he instantly understood our vision. I’ve been to so many weddings where the music feels corny, so I was nervous—but he absolutely nailed it. I sent him a Spotify playlist, and he perfectly captured the vibe we wanted, hitting every genre we love.
And I absolutely cannot finish this review without mentioning JOY. Joy was truly my best friend for the entire night. I don’t know how I got so lucky to have her as my bridal attendant, but I’m endlessly grateful. She was my right hand all day—carrying my lip products, touching up my hair for photos, fixing my dress, and getting me absolutely anything I needed. She was an angel, and I don’t think the day would have run nearly as smoothly without her. If you can request Joy, do it!
Finally, the Florentine Gardens itself is breathtaking. The grounds, the ballroom, the entire atmosphere—it’s elegant in a way that truly made my wedding dreams come to life. And the food? Let’s just say that coming from a big Italian family, the food is really what everyone is secretly judging. Thankfully, every dish was delicious. Our guests are still raving about it. The Florentine Gardens gave us a day that was not only beautiful, but unforgettable in every single way.
