Located in Valley View, TX, The Gardenia Wedding & Event Venue makes their space available for happy couples with guests of varying size. This elegant location features a classic white chapel and wide reception area on 40 acres of land for a private, romantic setting. The wide view of seemingly endless green pastures will be your surroundings as you walk down the aisle. This event space is named after the owners’ favorite flower, which is said to be the flower of heaven. Married couple Hunter and Christine Scheffler were inspired to build the property while looking for their own wedding venue. They wanted something close enough to the big city, but far enough away to have a pastoral aesthetic. Hunter and Christine combined the best of both worlds with The Gardenia, which is just a 20-minute drive from the city of Denton. While conveniently located, it gives you enough space in the idyllic countryside to make you feel right at home. The Gardenia Wedding & Event Venue features an outdoor courtyard, reception hall, and chapel that can seat from 50 to 300 guests. The reception hall gives couples 5,300 square feet of floor space, surrounded by 20-foot gallery windows for natural light and scenery. Their outdoor bar area, covered porch and arch rentals provide a comfortable, pet-friendly option for outdoor ceremonies and cocktail receptions. Wedding party suites onsite feature separate lounge areas, private restrooms, private balconies, and large TVs for prenuptial relaxation. Both the indoor and outdoor spaces are climate controlled with air-conditioning and heaters to keep you and your guests comfortable in any season. For timeless images, the venue’s serene pond and large front-facing fountain can serve as the ideal backdrop for your photographers to work with. The team’s one-event-per-day policy ensures that you and your guests will have the place to yourselves from the wedding prep to the reception. The staff will handle setup and takedown, and provide crossback chairs, round tables, and farm tables for indoor or outdoor use.
