The venue had 3 or 4 different coordinators cycle through over the course of our engagement with poor handover. Losing details that were in the same email chain or surprising that they weren’t stored properly. Leaving extreme delays in communic...

ations. They definitely tried to help but the process was pretty frustrating. Glad for future couples this will not be the norm. We fell in love with the venue when we attended one of their festivals. Of course flowers can be affected by weather but it would have been nice to get a heads up that the weather had caused all flowers not in the greenhouse to die or stop blooming. We were expecting to walk into the flower farm we paid for and told everyone about and we got just greenery with no heads up. Think the lack of communication was the most frustrating part. The venue itself is beautiful but you book for the flowers. Ended up spending more money last minute with the florist to achieve our partial vision. A main benefit is being able to stay on property if you book the weekend. Do NOT recommend staying at the neighboring Airbnb they tell you about (note: they are not affiliated). Ended up working out that our planner started working for them as the coordinator but was a bit more stressful because we were supposed to have a dedicated venue coordinator separate (which is part of the fee) from our planner but we did get exactly that. It’s a beautiful space just wish it had been what we had hoped for.

Wollam Gardens was wonderful as our wedding venue! We wanted a relaxing and fun outdoor wedding, and this was just the place for us! We felt the magic when we first visited and that never changed. It was so nice having everything all in one pla...

ce the entire time! Even with rain adjusting our plans, we had a perfect day in their gorgeous pavilion, the spot that made us first fall in love with Wollam! Everyone was friendly and great to work with, the flowers are amazing, and we've received many compliments on how nice and unique the venue is. They are so flexible and easy to work with. I would highly recommend having your wedding here!

g your own vendors, which was something really important to us. Our wedding day ended up being chilly and rainy, but the Wollam Gardens team worked with us to make the pavilion cozy, and even putting up with us to keep one wall of the pavilion up for our ceremony and pulling it down later for the reception. We are so grateful that despite the rain, we were able to get married in a unique pavilion instead of a tent as would have happened at most other outdoor venues. This venue is absolutely beautiful, and perfect for any couple who dreams of an outdoor wedding!

Any questions?

They worked with us to safely navigate our day, went above and beyond and exercised infinite patience with all of the last minute changes that the pandemic presented. As a wedding venue, absolutely 10/10 in all aspects; location, scenery, aesthetic, distanced, acres upon acres of lovingly cared for flowers and lush gardens, and of course Cameo Joe making his first wedding beer pong appearance and Hillary absolutely nailing my bride’s vision to a tee. Truthfully, we can’t recommend Wollam Gardens enough.

d to change the ceremony location last minute due to rain, and they pulled out all the stops to make sure that the change felt like an upgrade, rather then a last minute weather decision. Our point of contact was always ready to chat, and had a great list of local vendors that we could use. This was her last wedding season, but Arrin was probably the most kind, warm, and helpful person we could have possibly asked for to help us through our wedding planning process. This was how the entire staff at Wollam was, however, so no matter who you end up working with, you'll be well taken care of! We also elected use Wollam for our florals. You will not be disappointed if you go this route! They are completely reasonably priced, and create stunning designs. Claire was a dream to work with, easy to communicate with and so generous in her time and advice. The installation we ordered was stunning, the table flowers were stunning, the bouquet was incredible. I felt like I was in a dream. I would recommend Wollam to anyone looking for florals or a wedding venue. They made our day incredible <3

ng us to create the wedding of our dreams. Roasting a lamb on a spit over an open flame? No problem. Having friends pitch tents on the field to camp overnight? Sure thing. A bonfire and singalong until 3:30 in the morning? We'll help you get the fire started. It was amazing to have full run of this gorgeous farm on our wedding day and night. We held our ceremony on one of the fields, our reception under the pavilion (and a tent we rented), our cocktail hour on the gravel nearby, our donut cart next to that... It was like a big playground that we could fill with all our favorite toys. We've been to far more expensive weddings that weren't nearly as fun or festive or beautiful, because things had to be done a certain way. Wollam allowed us to do things our way, and then helped us through the process. And we are so grateful.

lowing us to come back and walk the grounds for planning purposes at any time. She helped to provide possible layouts for the best use of the beautiful pavilion and spearheaded clearing out a beautiful section of the farm on top of a hill for our ceremony. Everyone we spoke with at Wollam was wonderful and helped facilitate a perfect day. On the day-of, the forecast called for heavy rain and Arrin, the night before the wedding worked to help us secure an additional tent as the whole wedding was to be outside. After all, it did not rain and we did not need/use the tent, but their willingness to help us make everything perfect regardless of weather was so great. Having use of their two guestrooms in the historic farmhouse to get ready and use throughout the day was so helpful, too--and made for some beautiful "getting ready" photos! We worked with Hillary at Wollam for all our florals as well, and she was so helpful, making my vision come fully to life and working within our limited budget as well. I was blown away by how gorgeous all our flowers were (as were the guests!). The bouquets, centerpieces and pavilion installations were so striking, even among the natural beauty of the flowers growing all around our reception on the farm. Wollam Gardens was the most incredibly beautiful backdrop I could imagine for one of the best, most meaningful days of our lives. We were so proud to have family and friends traveling from all over the country to see us get married on this farm and share our joy. Thank you!!
