Our story is one of high school sweethearts. Marrying in our early twenties, we remember having no idea where to start as well as the disappointment we had in subpar vendor experiences. We wished we had experts available to help us create the wedding of our dreams and be stress-free. Fast forward to 2009, we opened Venue at the Grove with the desire to have our couples be our honored, care-free celebrities at their wedding celebrating and creating memories with their family and friends.

ng process. The team is kind, helpful, & honest. Their pricing is very transparent & doesn’t include thousands of dollars in “fees” like some other venues we toured. The planning felt easy and very stress-free; the all-inclusive aspect is a game changer!!
The day of was an absolute dream. Once again, the team was very thoughtful and attentive, making sure my husband & I were taken care of every step of the way. Our guests raved about how beautiful the venue was and how AMAZING the food was. Having everything set up & broken down for us—also a game changer. Our families got to enjoy the wedding & it didn’t feel like anyone was working the day-of. We are SO thankful for the team at Venue at the Grove, & truly cannot recommend them enough!!!!

y sold us was how warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable the staff is.
Karina walked us through every detail during the tour, even showing us photos of what the venue looks like in December which was so helpful since we were planning a winter wedding. From there, the planning process was a breeze. Their monthly vendor breakdowns helped simplify everything, and Trinity and Alyssa were always quick to answer questions or hop on calls when we needed help.
And the wedding day was perfection! Truly. Maddy kept everything on schedule while maintaining the calmest, happiest energy. Everything went smoothly, and we were able to just enjoy the day without stress. The venue itself is gorgeous at all times of day, but the team behind it is what makes it truly exceptional. We cannot recommend Venue at the Grove enough!

Trinity handled every detail with so much care that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment without stress. Her kindness and professionalism made us feel so supported from start to finish.
If you’re looking for a venue that not only delivers a stunning setting but also treats you with genuine care, Venue at the Grove is unmatched. We are so grateful for Trinity and the entire team for making our wedding day feel magical, smooth, and unforgettable. Highly, highly recommend! 💍

A Dream Wedding—Even in a Monsoon!
Our wedding weekend was hit by something no one could have predicted—a rare November monsoon! While the weather could have turned our dream day ...
upside down, this venue and their incredible team made sure it was nothing short of magical. They worked tirelessly to keep everything as close to our original plan as possible, and honestly, getting married in the rain ended up being one of the most beautiful parts of our story. The photos? Absolutely stunning. The atmosphere? Pure romance.
We cannot thank our coordinator, Maddy, enough. She was the calm in the storm—literally! Her creativity, quick thinking, and unwavering positivity transformed what could have been a stressful experience into a phenomenal celebration. Every single member of the team was a trooper, willing to do whatever it took to make our day amazing. From adjusting layouts to keeping guests comfortable, they handled every challenge with grace and a smile.
If you’re looking for a venue that truly cares, adapts to any situation, and will go above and beyond to make your day unforgettable, this is the place. Rain or shine, they’ll make your wedding dreams come true. We would recommend them a thousand times over!
We’ll cherish these memories forever, and it’s all thanks to this incredible team.

Our wedding at Venue at The Grove was, in every sense of the word, perfection. From the moment we arrived on the property, we were taken aback by the beauty of the venue. The pictu...
resque surroundings, the elegant details, and the way the space feels both intimate and expansive at the same time. It was the perfect setting for the celebration we had envisioned.
What made the experience truly exceptional, though, was the team behind it all — especially Karina. Throughout the planning process, she was a steady, reassuring presence. She communicated clearly, anticipated questions we hadn’t even thought to ask, and made every step feel manageable and enjoyable. On the wedding day, her leadership and grace were unmatched. She coordinated every moment flawlessly, ensuring that everything was not just done, but done beautifully.
The food was incredible — flavorful, perfectly cooked, and genuinely enjoyed by every guest. We continue to hear compliments about it days later. The service was top-tier as well. Staff members were attentive without being intrusive, warm without ever feeling rushed, and professional in a way that made the entire evening feel elevated.
What we appreciated most was how seamlessly the night flowed. It felt as though everything unfolded naturally and effortlessly — the ceremony, the cocktail hour, the transitions, the reception. We never once felt stressed or pulled away from the moment. Instead, we were completely free to enjoy our family, friends, and each other, knowing everything was being handled with care and precision behind the scenes.
The Grove gave us more than a venue — they gave us an experience. Our wedding night felt magical, meaningful, and beautifully orchestrated. It was the kind of celebration where every detail, big or small, contributed to a feeling of joy and ease. We cannot thank Karina and the entire staff enough for giving us a flawless night that we will remember forever. If you are searching for a venue that combines breathtaking beauty with exceptional service and a team who truly cares, Venue at The Grove is the place. It exceeded every expectation and gave us a wedding day we will treasure for a lifetime.

The venue was absolutely beautiful and out guests were well taken care of. We had around 80 guests, so I was worried the space may be too big for us but after touring we saw the layout of the grove has a cozy intimate feel bringing our guests close to us and was perfect with its stunning views! I would recommend this venue to anyone who wants a warm and romantic venue with a A+ team to support you!

thanks to this amazing team, all of that stress completely disappeared and that alone is worth every single penny.
Where do I even begin? They are attentive to every detail, incredibly professional, and genuinely love what they do. Every meeting, every tasting, even the rehearsal they were always so warm and excited to see us. Throughout the entire planning process and on the night of our wedding, it felt like we became part of their family.
They welcomed us with open arms and made everything feel effortless. Honestly, we didn’t have to lift a finger it was like they were inside our heads and magically brought our vision to life. The night was everything we dreamed of and more, and it’s all thanks to them.
If you’re looking for a venue that will give you peace of mind, treat you like family, and deliver the most beautiful wedding experience, look no further. The Venue at the Grove is simply perfection.

of our wedding day was for it to be outdoors with beautiful greenery and this venue was everything I wanted. We met with Alyssa for the first time to start our wedding planning process and I could tell right away what an amazing, kind-hearted, and caring person she was. This job is not just a job to her, but it’s truly what she loves to do. Alyssa and the venue team made this process so much easier than I thought it was going to be. They helped with everything, answered each and every question (in person and email) so quickly, and were professional and kind the entire time. Our wedding day went so smoothly, it was truly a dream. I remember being in the bridal suite and all my friends were asking how I was not nervous and so relaxed. Part of it of course was because I got to marry my best friend that day, but also because I felt so secure and safe with Alyssa and the team that they would handle everything for me and make sure we were okay. They went above and beyond my expectations, truly, and we are so happy to have chosen Alyssa and her team at venue at the grove for our special day!

A lot of the guests mentioned how amazing the food was, and if you know anything about weddings, normally Wedding Food isn’t. But this venue was great, lots of guest said it was so incredible. You truly can’t get the image of the trees, plants, flowers and surround image anywhere else the place is truly magical. Thank you again for all of your guys help. It was truly outstanding.

Through our year of planning we met so many different staff team members and every single one of them were amazing. Not one email went unseen or unanswered.

Our day was PERFECT, went off without a single hitch and we are telling everyone to use this stunning venue! Thank you again to everyone who had a hand in making our day picture perfect 💛

Where do I even begin? Venue at the Grove exceeded every expectation we had for our wedding and made the entire planning process a dream. From the moment we met Mary Kate during ou...
r initial meeting, we felt at ease. She was so knowledgeable, personable and helped us get everything booked seamlessly. We had been to a few other venues to tour and we both agreed Mary Kate was the most personable and didn’t just make us feel like another appointment she had on the books that day.
When it came to catering, Ben made our tasting such a fun and memorable experience. His attention to detail and willingness to help us craft the perfect menu ensured that our guests were raving about the food just as much as we were.
Stephanie, our coordinator, was the true MVP of the entire process. Her organization, calm demeanor, and expert guidance allowed me to fully enjoy every moment without a single ounce of stress. Everyone kept telling me what a calm bride I was and I have Stephanie to thank for that because she had every single detail under control!
On the day of our wedding, everything fell into place perfectly, thanks to the incredible staff at Venue at the Grove. The team’s professionalism and care allowed us to soak in every moment, making it the most magical and memorable day of our lives.
Along with the other vendors we chose through our all inclusive package, Got you covered DJ, Andrea Neff photography, Wild Child Floral and Surgarlips Cakery. All these vendors and wonderful people were such an important part of our day and having them already familiar with the venue helped make the day run so smoothly, I’m forever thankful for them!
If you’re looking for a venue that combines stunning beauty with unmatched service, Venue at the Grove is the one. We can’t thank Mary Kate, Ben, Stephanie, and the entire team enough for giving us a day we’ll cherish forever!

My husband and I got married on December 6, 2024 at Venue at the Grove and it was the most perfect day ever. The venue is absolutely stunning, the food was amazing, the service is ...
incredible, and their vendors are the best! The day went incredibly smooth thanks to our coordinator, Alyssa, and the rest of the staff at Venue at the Grove. They were extremely helpful and responsive from the very beginning of the planning process which made planning our wedding very easy! Alyssa was with us every step of the way and made our vision come to life. We couldn’t ask for a more perfect day. We have also received SO many compliments from our guests about how amazing our venue was and how it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to. We are SO pleased with our choice to have our wedding at Venue at the Grove. It is not only the most beautiful venue in AZ, but they make the entire planning process and day of extremely easy, fun, and stress free. If you are looking for a venue, we cannot recommend Venue at the Grove enough!

enue tucked away in a beautiful, lush grove, their team are all wonderful people, and their all inclusive package made things so easy for us. The lush setting was a refreshing change from the desert scenery that you get everywhere else in the Phoenix area, and easy to get to!
My husband and I got married on November 10th, 2024. Their event planning team, Olaya Events, were so wonderful and attentive every step of the way!! They organize all of the planning details so well, responded to my millions of questions quickly and thoughtfully, and especially when it came to the wedding day, they were so on top of it that I didn't have to worry about a thing!! Alyssa was our day of coordinator, and she and Ben, the catering manager, are so brilliant and incredible at what they do! This was easily the best wedding meal I've had, the food was delicious and so many of our guests said so too!!
I'm amazed at how well everything went, and so are our guests. We were able to enjoy our day to the fullest!
Everything on our wedding day was perfect, and thats a huge thank you to the incredible team here.

Our wedding on 11/3/24 was truly magical, and we cannot say enough wonderful things about Venue at the Grove and our amazing coordinators, Alyssa and Stephanie! Planning a wedding ...
from another state was something I was initially worried about, but Alyssa made the entire process so much easier. She was incredibly responsive and answered all of my questions, no matter how big or small, with such patience and care as we got closer to the big day.
Alyssa and Stephanie were both so attentive to every detail and worked with us every step of the way to ensure our wedding was everything we could have possibly dreamed of. On the day of the wedding, I truly felt like I was in the best hands. I couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated, organized, and thoughtful team to help bring our vision to life!
A special shout-out also goes to Ben with Ensemble Catering, who was an absolute gem! Even though we had some rain that day, Ben went above and beyond, making sure the tables stayed dry and delivering us food while we were busy greeting guests. His energy and kindness truly made the day even more special. He was such a wonderful "hype man" and we can't thank him enough!
The entire team at Venue at the Grove was exceptional. From the moment we arrived until the last song of the night, we felt completely taken care of. Our hearts were so full as we left our wedding, and we are beyond grateful for everything this amazing team did to make our day perfect.
Thank you, Alyssa, Stephanie, Ben, and the entire Venue at the Grove team for making our wedding day unforgettable!

d fall energy for our October wedding - we visited VatG and immediately knew that this was the best place for us. The team had all of our questions answered even before we asked them. Their organization and coordination skills were impeccable - we could tell from the beginning that we were able to trust their expertise to handle anything that came their way. There are clear processes and deadlines for decisions to be made, and they're so responsive to questions and updates over email. We were able to visit the venue several times during the year of our planning, and had calls and zooms with our coordinator, along with using their planning docs to share information. They made our wedding so EASY and so well executed - we got compliments ALL night from our guests. All of that is in addition to the incredibly beautiful venue space itself. The trees and lights made it feel like a fairytale. We loved that there were separate spaces for each portion of the night, but that transitions were easy and everyone knew where to go - it really maximized the fun and time with guests. We're so grateful to have worked with Alyssa and the team for our wedding. Pick them, you won't regret it!!!

start the communication from VATG and the Olaya events team was perfect. We always knew what step was next. The venue has an awesome group of preferred vendors. We had Ben, our catering manager for Ensemble catering who went out of his way for us. Stephani, our day of coordinator was fantastic and was there for us every step of the way. Tony George, our photographer has to be one of the best photographers. He is a gem and a joy to work with and his work is perfect. Chad with All American DJ is such a great guy to work with! He kept us entertained and on the dance floor all night. He also has a great network for those looking for a little something extra for your wedding. He helped us book our live wedding painter, Kat with KM Fine Art Studio, who did such a great job with the painting of us on our wedding day. Sugarlips Cakery made a delicious cake for us, and it was stunning! Our florist, Patricia with Wild Child Floral Design gave us exactly what we were looking for with the florals. The rest of the VATG and Olaya staff kept our day on track, kept the bar stocked and kept us fed all night long. I would highly recommend checking out Venue at the Grove. It is stunning during the day, but at night with all of the lights on it's like you are stepping into a fairy tale. The venue is clean and classic with a modern and rustic fit in it.

My wife and I could not express enough how great our entire wedding experience was with Venue at the Grove. Here are a few down to earth notes to take away. The planning process ...
was incredibly simple. With all the moving parts weddings encompass, the staff were very flexible and accommodating to what we wanted to make our day as special as it was. The setting for the ceremony and reception felt like we were in another world. Again, the planning for how we wanted our items set up were seamless with the staff's help. They made sure all the details we wanted were accommodated for. Lastly, but certainly very important and helpful was the cleanup for the end of the night. Staff were on point with making sure we had all our belongings and items needed prior to departing the venue. We had no worries with making sure everything was cleaned up and accounted for. Overall, our day was perfect and so happy we chose Venue at the Grove. Between the early consultations for planning, the beautiful setting, and logistics at the end of the night, I would recommend this venue to anyone searching for a location for their special day.

I went to the open house last year and fell in love with the Venue at First sight. The grass, pecan trees, citrus trees, and then 40,000 lights sold the deal. We got married on 5/2...
5/24, with almost all guests flying in. Every guest commented on how romantic the venue was. Stephanie and Ben were the best; they were both very professional and provided their expertise when needed. I can't forget how the ceremony went perfectly due to the support and always encouraging staff, especially Ben. Ensemble Catering is a part of the venue, and being that I have mostly foodie friends, everyone thought the food was delicious. The late-night Fries and Cookie Wall were discussed for the next few days when guests called to say how much they enjoyed the evening. Another consideration in my 5-star review is that the vendors in the package and on their website were just as great to work with. My husband and I are so grateful to everyone who worked that day and all the others who helped plan and make it the best day of our lives. We specifically worked with Got You Covered DJs, Sugarlips Bakery, TonyGeorgePhoto, Ensemble Catering, Wildchild Flowers, and AllTheLovelyLeigh Details. Below are photos from guests, not TonyGeorge. The wedding was about a week ago.

from the trees and the grass heatsink allows for a extremely pleasant outdoor wedding. The brick and stringlights add to occasion and the overall layout is well thought-out and allows the event to flow seemlessly. The staff are top notch and always willing and able to go the extra mile to help out and get any answers along the planning process. From the catering director to the chef to the servers to the coordinator, everyone made the process all the more enjoyable and with minimal stress. Everyone was very easy to work with and always available - emails and calls were always answered within a day if not much much sooner. The in-house catering was fantastic as well, including the bartender. Our wedding went perfectly and there really isn't anything critical to say about any part of it. I would only note that the prices are significant, not just up front for the venue packages but also for any kinds of "upgrades" you may want (i.e. seat cushions, love seat, etc).

I am the Mother of the Bride. We looked at about 6 venues before we chose Venue at the Grove. There was no doubt in our mind when we arrived. . .this charming, lush, and delightful...
escape from the Phoenix desert was the place where the magic would happen! An all-inclusive wedding location was highly important to us. By having a list of preferred vendors, you knew that you could trust the service and products they supplied. Let me tell you, they exceeded our every expectation. We had a couple of meetings with Alyssa and Stephanie well in advance of the wedding. Just about every detail you can think of, and more, was identified and planned out well in advance. The tracking system they use is highly organized and user friendly. Friends and family were checking in to see how things were going. We were not highly stressed like many mother/daughter duos, as the staff at the venue made the planning process easy and simple. There were a number of times we called and had additional questions. Each and every time, they answered them with a smile. They truly care. At the end of the day, everything we did during those months of planning was magically executed. All our friends and family had so much fun, and said it was one of the most beautiful ceremonies and receptions they ever attended. That was great, but what really made me joyful and brought tears to my eyes, was when my daughter looked at me that night and said, “I love you Mama, this wedding is just perfect!” A huge shout out to Alyssa, our wedding day director, and her team of warriors for making this the best day of our lives!

Communication:
The staff is extremely communicative, and they answered our every random question down to the very last-minute, small details. Specifically, Stephanie and Alyssa ar...
e OUTSTANDING. They both deserve raises for being so kind and generous with their time, answering all of our questions, and on the day, taking excellent care of our guests. And, our wedding day was flawless as a result. They knocked it out of the park.
Attention to Detail:
We are planners, so we may have gone overboard with planning, but we really didn’t have to do a thing on our wedding day other than show up and get married. The biggest and smallest details were catered to in equal amounts — no item was too small to be paid attention to. We went through numerous changes to our dining setup at the last minute due to faulty rentals on our end, and you truly wouldn’t have noticed.
Venue Scenery:
The grounds were so well-manicured, and we had numerous guests tell us “this was the most beautiful wedding I have ever been to.” Granted, our florist did an outstanding job as well, but to find a lust, green forest-like venue in Arizona is almost unheard of. The facility is extremely clean and so well-maintained that it really felt like an oasis in the desert.
Quality of Service:
The entire staff was so attentive towards our guests, and they were truly fantastic. Not that we had any doubts, but we approached some of our guests who had dietary restrictions just to ensure that they were taken care of, and they spoke very highly of the service they received. Even down to stowing a secret bottle of booze at the bar with a codeword so that it wouldn’t get used up right away — their staff was amazing.

They blew us away! We could not have imagined a better wedding for our daughter from beginning to end. I felt like we stepped into the garden of Eden last Saturday. It was the most...
beautiful wedding ceremony and reception EVER! Lush green grass and trees with birds chirping and sunshine gently peeking through the trees provided the most glorious setting. It was like having one foot here and the other in heaven. We worked with the most exceptional Sales Manager, Mary Kate, from beginning to end and sweet Stephanie was our Event Manager. Both were phenomenal and lived up to all their core values listed on their website, and then some! I cannot say enough good things about them and the venue. They provided all the options and walked our daughter through planning her wedding every step of the way. Everything was precisely executed and flawlessly completed on her wedding day. Mary Kate had all the venue staff and vendors carry out every single detail from our first meeting with her to her personally packing up our car at the end of the night! The whole wedding planning process was unbelievably easy and fun for our daughter. She was never under any stress and was able to enjoy everything from beginning to end! Be sure to arrive at 2 with a ceremony beginning at 5. This way you’ll have ample time to enjoy the bride and groom rooms that come with charcuterie boards, snacks and drinks, getting dressed, first look and capture all the family photos before the happy tears come during the ceremony.

back to us quickly when we had questions and made wedding planning so smooth for us. We were blown away on our wedding day about how well everything was planned and executed perfectly. We were able to fully enjoy our day because our coordinator, Alyssa, took care of everything. If you’re thinking of getting married here I could not recommend it more, it’s so beautiful and everyone there is so organized your day will go off without a hitch!
