The Garland

a lots. Our wedding planning went amazing smooth with all their help. From helping us with our room block, helping us select meals, to tips and tricks with wedding planning. Our wedding day was absolutely PERFECT! If I ever have a future event to plan, I will call The Garland to book it. Thank you again from the bottom of our heart, you made our wedding weekend the absolute best! Love, The Ramos'

you think you were in a private garden far in the countryside. Our wedding was absolutely perfect. We had two days' worth of events - one Indian wedding and one traditional American/Western wedding at the same venue space. The staff (Tanya and her team) were incredibly communicative and supportive. They helped us figure out how to make the best decisions for our guests and accommodated special diets with ease. We will never forget our wedding weekend and we're so lucky we got to have it here. Thank you so much to the whole team!

partway through the year, but Lindsey jumped in with professionalism and enthusiasm. Especially in the week leading up to the wedding, she was on top of every last detail and communicating with us constantly. Thanks to her, we went into the day confident that everything would go smoothly, so we were relaxed and just enjoyed the wedding! One of our main draws was the catering connected to The Front Yard. The food was excellent—we received so many compliments from our guests, especially about the short rib that melts in your mouth. The staff made sure we were fed during the cocktail hour and reception, and we’re glad we got to enjoy the delicious food! Tony, the catering captain, was fantastic and there for whatever we needed. The cake was included in the package (we highly recommend Delicious Bakery!). The garden is a surprisingly hidden gem behind the hotel. It’s impossible to tell that you’re close to the highway. With trees and greenery surrounding us, the backdrop of our ceremony was beautiful. We had our cocktail hour in the back of the garden, which made for an easy transition. The ballroom for our reception turned out gorgeous, especially with the flowers and uplights we added. Overall, The Garland just made it all easy. Having an all-inclusive venue handle catering, linens, tables, ceremony space, cake, etc. simplified everything. We were so impressed with how flexible and accommodating they were. They were happy to make any customizations to their wedding packages to create the right fit for our wedding and budget. It was an incredible experience, and The Garland helped make our wedding day perfect!

entire day, as well as the transition was so smooth! Christopher, our wedding coordinator, kept in touch with us through the entire process, answering all of our questions, and accommodating all of our wishes, and he was also such a pleasure to work with. He even had a framed photo from the ceremony, strawberries and champagne waiting in our room when we returned after the reception. The service was phenomenal - we never had to ask for a thing throughout the entire night - and the food was awesome! We had so many guests tell us it was one of the most beautiful weddings they'd been to and it was largely because of the Garland and Christopher. My husband and I couldn't be happier with how perfectly everything turned out. It really was a magical day!

wever I would be cautious about the service (which is why I'm giving three stars). When we originally booked The Garland, our point of contact was Jessica. We LOVED her from the minute we met her. She was always willing to go above and beyond for us, and we felt so safe with our wedding in her hands. Her role was technically that of a Sales/Catering Manager, but her demeanor had us under the impression that she was more of a wedding coordinator at The Garland. And in the end, that caused a lot of trouble for us. About three months before the wedding, we got a call from Jessica that she would be leaving her job at The Garland. We were really disappointed to be losing her, but even more so because she informed us of this ONE DAY before her last day of work. She connected us with Kayli, who would be taking over for her. To say that Kayli didn't live up to Jessica's standards would be an understatement. We had difficultly communicating with her about our needs and she would go weeks without responding to my emails, whereas Jessica would respond the same day. And then one week before our wedding day, I received a call from Kayli that she was quitting her job at The Garland too. ONE WEEK before the wedding. I was extremely panicked, but Kayli could not be less bothered by this. Christopher, the Event Manager at The Garland, took over for us. He was very responsive to my emails voicing my concerns, however he was NOT responsive to my husband and I asking how The Garland would compensate us for all of the stress they put us through. We were told that situations like this happen all the time and there's nothing they can do. We were incredibly unhappy and had it not been a week before the wedding, we would have reconsidered having our wedding at The Garland. When it came to the day of the wedding, Christopher was there, however he was not "present." Nor was he proactive; we always had to seek him out if we needed something, but he was never able to anticipate any issues. All of our vendors had trouble trying to find out where to go and what to do once they got to The Garland. And our DJ informed us that Christopher was not great at communicating with anyone. Both our florist and our photographer needed to get to our room at a certain time before the ceremony, and they were not allowed into the building. This caused us to run into unnecessary problems. One of my biggest issues is that at the reception, my husband and I looked over to see our vendors sitting the floor. No table was provided for them to sit at while they were eating their vendor meals. I could not have felt more shame or embarrassment in that moment. I do appreciate that the staff was able to resolve the situation when we mentioned it, however it never should have happened in the first place. We were also disappointed with the food and how long dinner service took. The food did not taste nearly as good as it did at the tasting and there were too many lulls during dinner. Many of our guests looked bored waiting for their meals to arrive. Overall, I would recommend The Garland based on the venue. However, I suggest hiring your own wedding planner to ensure that things run smoothly. And be prepared for last minute problems.

indoors reception. Beautiful and so romantic. They organized with the vendors for us, all food and decorations were handled. It really was simple and a good value-- Allowed me to focus on getting a dress, etc, because I knew I could trust the staff to handle the event planning. Loved it!! THANK YOU!!!

appetizers and a main course that my guests continuously raved about. The string lights and cute tables added extra elegance. Overall, The Garland was nothing short of perfection and I would host another event here in a second!

as so incredible, and we felt so well taken care of on the most important day of our lives. Beverly Park was magical as the sun set and we said our vows. The decor was perfect and elegant, making the atmosphere absolute magic. The food was delicious and the flexibility that The Garland gave us to personalize our wedding was phenomenal. Everyone is still talking about how this is one of the favorite weddings they've ever been to. We couldn't be happier with how it turned out, largely because of Kayli's awesome organization and enthusiasm for making our day the best it could be. We will continue to patronize The Garland and recommend it as a place to stay for our out of town guests. This truly was a vacation for all of us! Thank you!

ties. The pool is really relaxing (even though we didn't use it) and the food at the restaurant was GREAT!! The staff is amazingly friendly and Really nice. The only con I can say is you have to pay for parking.

which I loved! I couldn't pass up on this place b/c the name (too superficial) plus very good pricing. We paid under $18K for 200 people incld. alcohol & had the venue unil 1am!!! Tony V. was amazing b/c he was able to deal with me (crazy bride). closer to the wedding date i called him so much, but he never seemed annoyed - where anyone else would be. He was so great. There was a slight problem with our hotel room & he went above & beyond to make sure that it got resolved & I was happy. The cocktail hour was in the outside patio which was beautiful! the food was sooo good! And the service was great! I had a lot of left over cake & they stored if for me until I checked out the next day. Great location!!!

ed to do they gave us "passes" we had a pass out the day of which isnt something you want to do the day of your wedding. (my husbad handled this) the other downside is they didnt give us a great "group rate" for the rooms, i found better deals online on websites like "hotels.com" and such like that. other than these issues it was the prefect place for our ceremony. oh we had the "father serra" room for about 75 guests and it was just the right size
