The Garrison was the perfect place for our wedding. Everything from the initial planning with Bridget all the way through the wedding itself was done extremely well, and the recommended vendors were excellent also. It was clear that the group worked great together and it felt like a totally seamless experience from start to finish. A special shout out to our bridal attendant, Fatima, who was with us throughout the night and took care of so many little details. The view from the ceremony, cocktail hour, and into the reception was perfect and all of our guests had an incredible time. Food and drinks all excellent as well.

If you’re looking for a wedding venue look no further. The Garrison was 10/10. From the beginning of the process to the wedding day Bridget was amazing !! She was always there to answer any questions we had no matter the time of the day no matter big or small. The landscape it self, to the food/drinks and atmosphere it was all everything we could have imagined and more. We could not recommend this venue anymore you will not be disappointed

We feel so incredibly lucky to have been married at The Garrison. The venue is so beyond stunning, combined with our fantastic photographer, our wedding pictures are truly the most beautiful photos we’ve ever seen. The scenery is so stunning and romantic. The venue works tirelessly to upkeep the property and they do a phenomenal job. We were catered to from the start of the day to the end. Anything we needed we knew Annie and Fatima had our backs. I got to meet Annie a while back, she very quickly eased any questions and concerns we had. We got to meet Fatima the day before the wedding and she was immediately ready to help and get us ready for our big day. We live out of state so getting everything organized was a bit messy on arrival, but between Annie and Fatima, they were ready to rip into the mess. So grateful for them to organizing the absolute perfect day for us. It could not happen without them. On top of the staff being so ready and receptive to us, the FOOD! The food was so beyond, every single one of our guests raved about how incredible the hors d'oeuvres at cocktail hour, their meals were, and dessert! We are so lucky to have celebrated our love at this venue and we truly look forward to many anniversary visits in the future.

We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding at The Garrison!
The location is absolutely stunning, and the layout of the outdoor ceremony garden, cocktail hour room, reception room, and additional outdoor space worked incredibly well! We also got so many compliments on the food!
While the venue itself is amazing, the team at The Garrison is what really sets it apart and what made our day so incredible. Annie, our wedding coordinator, was such a pleasure to work with and made the entire planning process leading up to the wedding as well as the wedding day itself as seamless as possible. Her professionalism, expertise, and care really made it a perfect day.
The Garrison also has an incredible list of preferred vendors. We ended up choosing nearly all of our vendors from their list and could not be more happy with how everything turned out!
Overall, we can't recommend The Garrison highly enough!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our wedding—and a huge part of that is thanks to Annie, our wedding coordinator, who truly went above and beyond to make our day seamless and unforgettable.
From the start, the venue itself was beautiful, well-kept, and exactly what we envisioned. But what made the experience truly exceptional was the level of care and professionalism Annie brought. She handled every detail with a calm confidence that immediately put us at ease.
On the day of the wedding, we had a few last-minute changes that could’ve easily caused stress—but Annie took it all in stride, with grace and a can-do attitude. Whether it was adjusting the timeline, coordinating with vendors, or handling unexpected logistics, she managed everything effortlessly and made sure we didn’t have to worry about a thing.
Thanks to her, our day ran smoothly, allowing us to truly be present and enjoy every moment. We are endlessly grateful to Annie and the entire team for helping create such a magical experience. Highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for not just a beautiful setting, but an incredible support system behind the scenes.

The Garrison exceeded our expectations and was the most perfect place for our wedding. Annie was exceptional to work with- so accommodating and flexible with clear communication. Our guests were so impressed with the scenery- the natural backdrop of the Hudson valley was all the decor we needed. The FOOD was also absolutely delicious and super high quality. Annie and her team made planning a breeze. we knew as soon as we entered the Garrison for our tour that this venue was the one for us. The price point was realistic and I really loved how they accommodate one wedding per day- making it a very special and personalized event. We ended the night with a campfire amidst the mountains while other guests danced the night away inside! We are so grateful and overjoyed that we chose this place for our special day!

We got married at the Garrison this past June and it was beyond perfection. From the moment we first visited, we knew we had to get married here. The stunning venue and the beautiful views instantly won us over.
We had the pleasure of working with Bridget, and she, along with her incredible team, made the entire experience seamless. She understood our vision and helped make it come to life. She answered all our questions and put our mind to ease.
We used some vendors recommended from the Garrison and they were amazing. Our wedding day ran so smoothly, I didn’t have to think about a single thing. Just before our outside ceremony it started to sprinkle, and I was told the staff jumped right into action and dried off the seats the moment it stopped.
The food was absolutely incredible. I was a little nervous about not having a tasting beforehand, but everyone reassured me to trust that it would be amazing. They were right, it exceeded all expectations! The sushi station we added was a huge hit with our guests, and every single person raved about how delicious everything was.
I really hope someone I know gets married here so I can experience as a guest. If you are considering The Garrison for your wedding, do it. You will not regret it, 1000/10 recommend! I could go on and on about how incredible our experience was.

The garrison is truly a gem. I could not have asked for a better experience. From my first meeting with Annie I knew I was in good hands. They made sure every detail was perfect. The venue is absolutely gorgeous offering incredible views of the mountains. The food was delicious and there were so many options to choose from. The staff was incredibly accommodating and professional. My husband and I got to be present and soak in every moment of our day due to the attentiveness of Annie and her team. I can honestly say it was a stress free day. Our guests cannot stop raving about their experience at the Garrison. This is truly a day we will never forget and we will be sure to continue visiting the Garrison in the future.

I cannot recommend The Garrison enough! First of all, the place is STUNNING. It is absolutely gorgeous no matter the season, weather, etc., you will not have a bad wedding day there. The staff is LOVELY and patient. From the chef, to Annie, to the waiters, and bridal attendants, everyone wants you to have the best wedding ever. They listen to your wants, they make adjustments, and they are professional and courteous. They treat every guest with kindness and they are efficient. Know that you are in good hands with them, so that when your wedding day comes, you can be present and savor every moment.

We got married at The Garrison several weeks ago, and we cannot rave enough about this venue. We instantly fell in love with The Garrison as soon as we stepped onto the property for the tour. Bridget, our coordinator, made us feel at ease throughout this process from the moment we met her. Throughout the planning process, her communication was exceptional and she made our day go off absolutely seamlessly. The entire staff was phenomenal, professional, and detail oriented. Our guests loved the food, the gorgeous views, and had the best time. We cannot say enough amazing things about The Garrison and everyone who was a part of our day!!

Many, many thanks to Annie Rozycki for her phenomenal help and expertise in help planning, coordinating, and pulling off a breathtakingly beautiful wedding. Annie’s professionalism, ease and fun to work with, to her attention to intricate details and just her overall willingness to make sure our day went perfectly, exceeded all of our expectations and then some! From the stunning and spectacular views of The Garrison, to the sunset which was amazing, to the food that was absolutely delicious, and professional and friendly staff. Our guests raved about the venue and we highly recommend having your wedding at this stunning location. Every detail was spectacular and exactly what we wanted. Annie, you are truly the best!

We had a wonderful wedding at The Garrison in August in 2024- from the minute we saw this breathtaking venue, we knew it was a special place where we could see ourselves spending one of the most important days of our life. I immediately got in touch with Bridget, who from day one was super accessible, transparent, kind and willing to work with us. Bridget walked us through the entire planning process, from a tasting where we were made to feel super special by the wonderful Fatima (who ended up being our day of attendant and was AWESOME) to every last detail of our special day. The venue itself is gorgeous, the sunset over the mountains, the floor to ceiling windows, the beautifully maintained grounds - our guests were in AWE. The staff was wonderful, they made sure to treat our wedding party extra special and gave great service to our guests. My morning getting ready in the bridal suite was peaceful and easy and Bridget and Fatima kept things on task. We knew our day was in great hands with Bridget and the team at The Garrison and we can't thank them enough for making our wedding such a memorable and beautiful day.

We LOVED having our wedding at the Garrison!!! We were blown away by the idyllic views and grounds and beautiful reception space. Even though we lucked out with the weather, I appreciated that their indoor ceremony space also overlooked the beautiful scenery, and that even during the reception, our guests could admire the view and sunset. We can't count the amount of compliments we got from our guests on The Garrison, from how beautiful the space and views were to how great the food and staff were.
I also loved that we were the only wedding held that day so I had access to the bridal suite (which is really big and comfortable) for the entire day.
We worked with Annie as our day-of-coordinator, and she was AMAZING!! She is a total pro, and throughout the entire wedding planning process she was so helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable. Annie coordinated with our other vendors and helped us get every detail in order so that during the actual day, everything went so smoothly and we didn't have to worry about any logistics.
Our whole experience with The Garrison was seamless, and we would recommend that everyone have their wedding there!

Multiple guests commented on what a perfect setting the Garrison was for a wedding, and we couldn't agree more. The views were spectacular, the sunset was gorgeous, and the space was warm and inviting. The staff were incredibly professional and attentive, and the food was excellent. We heard from so many vendors, after we told them we were working with Bridget, that we would be in good hands, and she went above and beyond her reputation to keep every detail running smoothly. The Garrison was absolutely the perfect venue for us, and we're so happy to have been able to celebrate our wedding there.

Words cannot describe how perfect and flawless our wedding day was at The Garrison.
We looked at several venues but once we stepped inside of the Garrison, it was no question this was our venue.
Bridget was there every step of the way even before we put down our deposit. She was amazing from answering all our questions , responded quickly to emails, eased any sort of worry I had. I always thought wedding planning would be stressful..and I can say it honestly was not because everything here is so thorough and relaxed.
The venue is BEAUTIFUL inside and out. Luckily weather agreed with us so we could get married outside but they were prepared to shift last minute Inside ( which is just as beautiful) needed be which was great.
The food was talked about for weeks after as well, all our guests raved that it was some of the best wedding food they’ve ever had and we agree!
I can go on forever but if you want a wedding that checks every box…the garrison is your place. I would choose it again and again.

We got married at the Garrison on 6/29/2024, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. We really got the wedding of our dreams and it wouldn't have been possible without this venue or its amazing staff. Annie - our day of coordinator displayed expertise, patience, and knowledge guiding us through a million schedule changes, potential thunderstorms, and the whole wedding process. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and made us feel calm, comfortable, and confident in our decision making for our big day. The staff was easy to work with and professional, and our bridal assistant was on top of all of the small things and any request we had. The Hudson valley back drop completely awed our guests, with tons of friends and family taking pictures of the incredible landscape (and us!). We highly recommend the Garrison for anyone looking for amazing views, great food, and an awesome staff.

Our wedding at The Garrison was truly exceptional and exceeded all of our expectations. Annie was amazing from the start. She took any kind of guess work out of the planning process. With their list of vendors, I was easily able to find truly outstanding professionals that made my wedding day special.
We had our whole wedding weekend at The Garrison, from the rehearsal dinner, wedding, accommodations, to a post wedding brunch. They have it all and every point of the weekend went off without a hitch.
Every guest of ours made it a point to tell us this was the best and most beautiful wedding venue they had ever been to.
Annie, the bridal assistant Fatima and the whole staff at The Garrison are true professionals. Every last detail was thought of and they made it so my husband and I did not have to worry about a thing on our wedding day.
I am beyond grateful for the experience with The Garrison and I have absolutely no second thoughts about my wedding. It was the most enchanting and magical day of our lives.

Our wedding at The Garrison was wonderful. Bridget Bell, our coordinator, and her entire team truly made our day stress free and incredible. You can tell that they run a well oiled machine and have a team of professionals, from top to bottom. The food was OUTSTANDING, I still dream about that short rib dish. Bridget was also incredible throughout the planning stages and really walked us through everything, making sure we felt comfortable and more importantly, excited for our big day. It happened to rain on our wedding day and I was genuinely so impressed with how the team and the venue handled that change of plans. It was seamless and at the end of the day, I don't at all feel like I missed out on anything. The grounds and the location itself are stunning and it's hard to take a bad picture here. There was plenty of space for us to get ready beforehand and the venue truly took care of every single detail making my day less chaotic and allowing me, as the bride, to really enjoy my wedding and not fret about the details. I have no complaints at all, The Garrison was a wonderful venue to get married at and I recommend it highly.

Where do I even begin? The Garrison was the last venue we toured and we were immediately in awe of the view of the Hudson River from the ceremony site and the reception areas. We worked with Annie and from the beginning, we knew we were in great hands. All of our emails were answered immediately and her expertise of how a wedding should go made our lives 1000x easier. Fatima was also my bridal assistant for the day, and her joyous demeanor was infectious!
My bridal party and I got ready in their bridal suite, which was equipped with two salon chairs and a little sitting area. It was so nice to be able to get ready at the venue and not have to worry about being transported anyway else.
During the wedding, our guests were blown away by the venue and kept complimenting the staffs’ professionalism. And the food! Oh my god, the food was out of this world.
We could not have asked for a better experience with The Garrison! We are eternally grateful to every staff member who made our day one to remember!

We knew our wedding would be smooth after our year of communicating with Bridget, but wow. We never could have guessed just how magical and perfect the day would be.
About 10 minutes after getting dressed and as I was about to head downstairs for our first look, I spilled bright green matcha all down the front of my wedding dress. Our bridal assistant, Fatima, immediately jumped into action. While I believe I saw a brief moment of terror in her eyes in the second after it happened, she calmly reassured me that it was not a big deal (though I knew very well that it was), and ran to get a stain remover wipe. Between her and my sister/MOH, the stains were reduced at least enough to get to the first look photos (with a well-placed bouquet). I was incredibly fortunate to have already planned an outfit change for our tea ceremony, so after I changed into my other dress, Fatima and Adam (who wasn't even supposed to be involved in my wedding at all!) whisked my white dress away and started working on it. When the tea ceremony was over, I returned to the bridal suite to find my dress completely recovered - it somehow looked brand new. Fatima and Adam, you literally saved my wedding day. I can never thank you enough.
As every other reviewer has said, we feel so lucky to have found The Garrison for our wedding. Bridget coordinated everything flawlessly. Every detail, every cue. She was accessible and communicative during the planning phase, and that didn't change on the day of the wedding. She was flexible with every change that we asked to make both before and during the wedding. Every part of the team was praised in the days afterwards by our families - the food, the service, the drinks, and the way that everything came together to create the perfect event. I could go on and on about how smooth, fun, and beautiful our wedding was thanks to The Garrison! But in summary, the coordination with Bridget was spot-on, the food was delicious, the venue and views were stunning, and our bridal assistant, Fatima, made us feel cared for, loved, and special the entire day. Anyone would be lucky to work with this team for their wedding.

Our Winter Wedding happened on December 16th, 2023. The view, beauty and elegance of The Garrison prompted me to choose them for our Wedding day, but the Staff (Bridget, Fatima, and Richard especially) made it incredible. My guests ranted and raved about the service, friendliness, and food at our Wedding. I truly am so thankful to have had the most amazing day and thank The Staff at The Garrison for all their hard work and assistance to make our Day amazing!

Wow, where to even start this review? One sentence can sum it up; our wedding day was absolutely flawless from start to finish. Our wedding date was 6/2/2023 and from the 1st day since we signed our contract with The Garrison in April of 2022, I had the utmost pleasure of working with Annie throughout our planning. She was super attentive, quick to respond, and patient with all of my questions, changes, and thoughts when it came to planning. She was honest and always gave great suggestions when I wasn’t sure about something, and I am definitely type A when it comes to certain things but Annie was always able to reassure me that our wedding day would be perfect no matter what and sure enough, she was right! The day of our wedding, Fatima was my bridal assistant and she super attentive, always catering to me and my hubby if we needed anything from food, drinks, assistance with outfits changes, anything! The bridal suite was also convenient for my bridal party to get ready in and kept everyone in one place. Our guests raved about the food, the staff, and of course the wonderful views! Richard and Fatima ended the night with us and helped us pack everything in an organized and efficient manner. We stayed in The Inn the night before, and the room was clean and cozy with amenities available. Would definitely recommend this venue for any event! Thank you so so much for everything!

If you are looking for the most perfect wedding venue in the hudson valley, look no further because the Garrison is the answer! I can't believe it's already been almost two months since my husband and I had our wedding here because I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since. The Garrison has everything you could possibly ever want and need in a wedding venue. 1) The views - the possibilities for photos are endless with absolutely gorgeous views of the hudson river and such well kept grounds. They even provide a golf cart for you to get around which made for a fun little adventure. 2) The food - I can't say enough about how delicious the food was and neither could our guests! People couldn't stop raving about the endless options at cocktail hour and the tenderness of their steaks, many proclaiming that this was the best food they had ever had at a wedding before. 3) The staff and management team - I saved the best for last here, because our day would not have been as perfect as it was without the help of the exceptional staff at the Garrison. Annie was our coordinator and she made us feel so comfortable the minute we met her when we toured the venue which was a huge selling point when we made our decision. She was so responsive to both mine and my husband's continuous emails and phone calls with questions and never made it seem like we were bothering her. She really went out of her way to make sure our day went more smoothly than I could have ever imagined and I really can't thank her enough! Tara, our assistant always made sure our drinks were full, set up food for us so we could have time alone after our ceremony, drove us around in the golf cart, and overall just made sure I was always ok. To the rest of the staff team, thank you so much for all that you did to make our day so special! Our wedding at the Garrison was a dream come true!

The Garrison is the perfect place to have a wedding-- besides the stunning venue and views and the incredible food, everyone we worked with made our day the best day of our lives. Annie made the entire process enjoyable and as easy as possible, and is an absolute GEM! She is truly the best of the best. Day of, everyone made us feel so welcome and taken care of-- the bridal assistant Fatima went above and beyond for me. Even though we ended up having to have our ceremony indoors because of rain, I couldn't have asked for a more magical day. All of our guests have been raving about the venue and how incredible everything was. 5/5 stars!

I had my wedding at The Garrison venue, and everything was beyond my expectations, my outdoor ceremony was intimate and beautiful. We felt extremely attended to by the staff, from my event manager who took care of every single detail to the bridal assistant and the wait staff who were taking care of me and our guests. The spectacular view of the Hudson River, the food, the cake, the music by -A Perfect Blend-. Everything was a dream come true. Thank you Bridget for helping me with the best day of my life.

The best choice we made for our wedding was having it at the Garrison and working with Bridget. Guests kept telling us the food was the best they'd had at any wedding. Every staff member was professional and supportive. Bridget guided us through every detail and made it look easy. When it looked like it might rain, Bridget had the ceremony set up both outside AND inside so we could pivot quickly, and it was entirely due to her planning and expertise that we were able to ultimately have it outside. Would highly recommend!

Wow, where do I even start? The Garrison is a DREAM! Our wedding was flawless from its jaw-dropping beauty to the spot-on team led by the amazing Annie.
From the moment we set foot at The Garrison (even though our first sight of it was mid-winter), we were enveloped in its breathtaking beauty, which only grew more enchanting as our wedding day unfolded from daylight to sunset. The serene ambiance, picturesque landscapes, and meticulously maintained venue made our day better than we could have ever hoped.
Beyond the setting, the staff at The Garrison exhibited unparalleled detail orientation and professionalism. Their attentiveness to our needs and unwavering dedication ensured that our day went off without a hitch. Our guests have not stopped raving about the delectable cuisine, with many proclaiming it to be some of the best they've had at any wedding!
I must offer a special word of gratitude to Annie and her team. Their remarkable ability to make every wedding feel both entirely unique and intimately familiar is a gift. With Annie at the helm, we felt as though our wedding was the only one she'd ever coordinated, yet with the assurance that she'd flawlessly executed countless others. This balance of personal touch with seasoned expertise is genuinely a marvel.
To say that our wedding at The Garrison was the "best wedding ever attended" is not just our sentiment but echoed by many of our guests. We are forever indebted to Annie and the entire team at The Garrison for making our special day feel singularly unique yet effortlessly executed. If you're seeking a venue where your individual love story shines amidst a backdrop of impeccable service and stunning vistas, The Garrison is the place.

My wedding at The Garrison this August 2023 was a dream come true. From the day I met Annie R. I knew I was in good hands. She was so helpful and accommodating isn't the word. My husband and I are both vegan and it was very important to us to have all vegan food at our wedding. When I brought this up to Annie she actually seemed excited and was very encouraging in our decision. And the food ended up being incredible! The day of the wedding I didn't worry about a thing because I knew she was handling everything. The whole team at this venue is very professional and they all work together so well. My day of bridal assistant Fatima was also just amazing. She made sure I was drinking enough water all day, calmed me down when I was sobbing just before walking down the aisle, and best of all packed us a bag of dessert for us to take at the end of the night. My wedding party and guests were so impressed by the stunning the view, the friendly staff and the delicious food. Booking this venue will be the best decision you make for your wedding day and I feel so grateful to have done so myself.

The perfect venue DOES exist and it is the Garrison.
I’ve worked and been to a ton of weddings, and this is easily the best venue I’ve ever been to. I know I sound biased because it was where I had my wedding, but all my guests said it as well. The grounds are beautiful. Between the wild flowers and the view, it will take your breath away. There are so many amazing spots to take photos! The venue provides a golf kart so you can get around quickly without having to hike. All of my photos look like a dream. Inside the venue is so cute. The barn doors behind the bar + wood flooring everywhere gives that fresh boho vibe! The bridal suite comes equipped with hair and makeup chairs. It’s a great place to store your stuff throughout the night since the doors lock. The food was absolutely incredible. I had so many guests message me days after saying how it was the best steak they’ve had. The whole staff paid close attention to our families and kept checking in on them. My brother and mother in law are both vegan and they got amazing entrees with fresh ingredients / they made them both huge trays of apps during cocktail hour. Most weddings they only get a plate of vegetables so this was an awesome surprise. With your day comes a coordinator and bridal attendant. We absolutely loved them both! Annie was such a big help from day 1. I never felt stressed because she was there to answer every question, and offer solutions and advice. She made sure our wedding ran smoothly, and truly created the best day of our lives for us. Our attendant Fatima was awesome. She had such a positive attitude and was running around all day for us. She kept making sure our drinks were never empty, and checking that we had everything we needed. I love how the two of them kept creating special alone time for my husband and I + making us plates of food so we didn’t miss out. At the end of the night they had everything neatly packed up for us so we didn’t have to stress! I can’t say enough good things about the Garrison. I am so so grateful we decided to have our wedding here, and will spend my life day dreaming about the perfect day they created for us.

Annie, Richie, Fatima and the team at the garrison are truly one of a kind! Annie was amazing through the entire planning process and her team was phenomenal on the day of our wedding. They truly went above and beyond! The views at the Garrison are the best in the Hudson Valley and the grounds are stunning. The food was delicious, especially the raw bar and sushi bar during cocktail hour. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue.

Having our wedding at The Garrison was the best decision we could’ve made. During the entire process, our coordinator Annie was a complete gem. She was extremely helpful and transparent about the process from the start. She was always there as a sounding board for any wedding ideas we had and was able to give her professional opinion on what typically works and what doesn’t; this helped us stay within budget. Annie was constantly available over email which helped make this process so much easier. She gave us a list of The Garrison’s recommended vendors; which helped us put together our dream team for the wedding.
The food at the Garrison is fantastic. We had a variety of options to choose from for our guests to have for both the cocktail hour and dinner. While they don’t offer wedding tastings, you can taste-test their food/chefs at The Valley Restaurant, which is adjacent to the venue. At the restaurant, we even had a cocktail that we ended up asking for as a specialty cocktail at our wedding.
Right across the river from West Point, The Garrison has beautiful views of the Hudson Valley. And beautiful views mean… beautiful pictures! The photos we took at The Garrison were all incredible thanks to (1) the photographer we selected from The Garrison’s recommended vendors list and (2) the variety of scenes they have on the property. While the entire property is beautifully kept, they had some particularly elegant sections near the pond, with stone architecture, and overlooking the valley that only helped enhance our photos. It was truly a breathtaking scene that had everyone asking us how we even found the place.
The Garrison team has weddings down to a science. Annie, the bridal coordinator, the staff, the bartenders, and the chefs were truly incredible and helped our wedding vision come to life. They helped my husband and I actually enjoy our wedding day, instead of stressing that everything was in place.
It’s now a few months later and our guests are still raving about how everything at the wedding was just perfect. It was simply an amazing experience, and we could not have asked for anything better.

After going back and forth on if we wanted a wedding or not we decided we would do one with some conditions—we didn't want a "traditional" ballroom style venue. Our hearts were set on getting married in the woods, we love the outdoors, but the location couldn't be too far for our guests traveling from Westchester and the city. We struck gold when we found the Garrison—it was the perfect venue. We did our ceremony outside and reception inside and couldn't be happier. All of the details of the venue feel more modern and updated than traditional venues—hello gorgeous wood floors, no tacky carpets here. Bridget was our coordinator and she was amazing, she made all of the details a breeze which was much appreciated, especially since we booked less than 6 months out from our date!
All of our guests had an amazing time. Get the cannoli filling for your cake, traditional yes, but literally something our guests kept raving about. Also, do the hanging lights, worth the extra cost! Also, you should book transportation for guests...ubers/cabs are slim.
After experiencing our wedding, one of our friends booked their wedding at the Garrison and couldn't be more excited to celebrate again here. We're also looking forward to having our 1 year anniversary dinner here at their restaurant <3
Love the Garrison!

Our February wedding at the Garrison was an absolute dream. The guests were amazed at the beautiful sunset mountain views, the food was delicious and Annie and the staff helped everything run smoothly and on time. I would absolutely recommend considering looking into the winter wedding package! I am extremely pleased with how our wedding turned out :)

The Garrison is an exceptional wedding venue. Bridget and her team are a well oiled machine and we felt supported throughout the whole process. The literature about wedding packages is clear and comprehensive and we were thrilled with the attention to detail in executing our event. Day of, Bridget set up the indoor ceremony space as well as the outdoor ceremony space and gave us the confidence to have our December wedding outdoors with the stunning scenery. It was a game time decision and the staff reset everything on the fly. The food, the service, the facilities, all were top notch. Our guests raved about the views!
During our initial planning meeting, we were given a list of recommended vendors and had a great experience with the vendors that we booked. I also went to a Bridal Show at the Garrison and got to see the space and meet vendors in person. The Bridal Suite is spacious and well-lit with natural light. I highly recommend booking out the Inn, it was great to have a space for family members to stay on site and it made the morning of flow smoothly.
At the end of the night, we didn't have to worry about anything! Bridget even organized for a local nonprofit to come and pick-up our flowers to donate to nursing homes in the area.
In short, my husband and I are already talking about driving up to stay at the Inn, eat at the Valley Restaurant and reminisce!
Thank you to the Garrison team!

I cannot say enough about how great The Garrison is. Bridget was our coordinator and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. We had a winter wedding that was insanely beautiful with the view. The food was great and the service was phenomenal. I have two handicapped people in my family and they were able to move around easily. Our ceremony was indoors and just gorgeous. I highly highly recommend this venue!!!

This place is magic, the views, the food, the decor - it is absolutely stunning. On top of all of that they have Annie who made our day SEAMLESS. I literally barely had to think about anything, she ran the show and made it look effortless. So happy we got married at this beautiful place.

Picking the Garrison as our wedding venue was the best decision we made! Not only is the venue itself STUNNING and surrounded by a beautiful landscape, but the food is INCREDIBLE, the staff is kind and professional, and most important our coordinator, Annie, is a reason in itself to choose the Garrison. She guided us through everything and was extremely communicative, answered all of our questions, walked us through what we need to know to prepare for the wedding and the day of the wedding. She was by our side the entire day with her staff to ensure everything went perfectly. Honestly, I never stressed once about the wedding or the venue - plus they have a great rain plan, which takes some stress off your plate (since you can’t control the weather!)

Having our wedding at The Garrison was the best decision we ever made! Amazing doesn’t even begin to describe the experience. Starting with Annie R., we knew from the first meeting that this venue was a step above the rest, and we trusted them to deliver a memorable and smooth day for us. Annie was extremely helpful throughout the booking and planning process – she offered her professional advice and also provided sound recommendations for additional vendors.
The day of the wedding was a pure dream! Annie and Julianna were by my side and made sure that everything was taken care of. The rest of the staff were also super attentive and made sure that guests had everything they needed. We received countless compliments on so many aspects of the wedding, mainly on the food - everyone loved it!! The Garrison is a truly special place, both due to its unique location / views and the incredible team that works there. We are so happy that there’s a restaurant we can return to annually to reflect on our special day. Do not hesitate to book this venue for your wedding, or any special occasion!
