“Let me start by saying that the Secret Garden and the Epic Coordination team made all of my wedding dreams come true! I recently got married at the Secret Garden on April 28th, 2024. It truly was the most magical day of my life not just because I was marrying my soulmate, but because of the amazing coordination team that made our vision come to life. It was the first venue that my husband and I looked at, and we immediately fell in love with it. We loved that it was a beautiful indoor and outdoor garden venue, but we also loved how they offered an all-inclusive wedding package. They have a list of recommended vendors, including DJ, caterer, florist, photography/videography, and so much more. They give you the option to choose a vendor that they don't have on their recommended list, but we did everything through them and I wouldn't have had it any other way. They really offer the best-of-the-best professionals that know exactly what they're doing. A special shoutout to our coordinator, Laura, for being so organized and making sure everything was perfect on our big day! When it came to the day of the wedding, the entire timeline flowed seamlessly. None of the guests were left waiting around or wondering what was going on because the coordination team was so on top of everything! Everyone at our wedding, including myself and my husband, had an amazing time. Another thing to mention was that the communication with the Secret Garden and their team was beyond excellent! Any question I had, they answered promptly and made sure that the planning process was seamless. I had an enjoyable experience planning our wedding thanks to the support from the Secret Garden and Epic team! To conclude, my wedding day at the Secret Garden was literally the happiest day of our lives! It couldn't have been more perfect. If you're envisioning a fairytale garden wedding like I was, choose this venue!”

“We truly had the most amazing experience with Wedgewood Weddings at Galway Downs! Choosing an all-inclusive venue ended up being the perfect balance for us. It took so much of the stress and work out of searching for vendors on our own, while still giving us the flexibility to customize our package and make our wedding feel completely personal to us. Every planner and coordinator we worked with was incredible throughout the entire process. They were always available to answer questions, guide us through decisions, and offer valuable insight while still allowing us to bring our own vision to life. We also absolutely loved the vendors included through Wedgewood. Everyone was attentive, professional, and genuinely cared about creating exactly what we wanted. A special shoutout to the vendors we worked with through Wedgewood—our florist, bakery, photographer, and DJ—who all went above and beyond for us! Each of them took the time to understand our vision and helped bring every detail to life so beautifully. The venue was also incredibly flexible in allowing us to bring in additional outside vendors beyond the ones they provide, which made everything feel even more personalized and truly ours. Our wedding turned out even more beautiful than we imagined. We got the ease and support of an all-inclusive experience without sacrificing the ability to personalize our day, and that was exactly what we wanted. It truly felt like our dream wedding came to life, and we are so grateful to the entire Wedgewood and Galway Downs team for making it happen!”
