Lot 8 was the perfect venue for our wedding! From the moment we started working with Kim and the team, their communication was attentive and they were incredibly helpful in guiding us through the planning process. On the day of, we did not have to worry about a single thing - the staff took care of everything seamlessly. The venue itself was the best value, with ample space for our 160 guests. The food from Eco Catering was delicious, and our photography team of Kristin and Mike captured all the special moments beautifully.

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 just had our wedding a few days ago on Thursday and it was hands down amazing. We could not have asked for a better executed experience. Iveth was an amazing day of coordinator. Everyone loved the food and Kyle our DJ kept the party going smoothly. I highly recommend this venue if you are looking to have a smooth wedding for a good price. We had about 55 people and it all looked great. All the in-house vendors are excellent at communication and if you have any issues the staff at the Orchard can easily help you out.

What a stunning, magical, fairytale venue and team of incredible staff. Our journey to our wedding at Churon started with a beautiful tour of the venue from Courtney, who patiently answered all our questions and provided us with invaluable information about hosting a wedding at their venue. She passed us to Vanessa, who graciously answered even more questions, provided reassurance, and made us feel like we were home with a friend when we met with her for our final venue meeting. The front desk staff were welcoming and patient all of the many times I called for an update on guests who had booked rooms for the wedding. The servers, bar tenders, and staff setting up and taking down the event made our wedding festivities seamless. In addition, the appetizers, dinner, and wine were FABULOUS! On our final morning after locking ourselves out of our hotel room, my husband and I discovered that the Churon team had surprised us with a BEAUTIFUL welcome sign for our wedding in the lobby of the hotel, and they gave it to us to take home! We felt like this venue was not only more affordable than other wineries in the area, but the whole experience from start to finish made us feel like we were staying in a 10-star hotel. If you are looking for an intimate, fairytale wedding setting with all your closest friends and family, look no further. You will fall in love with Churon!

Our wedding was perfect. The venue was absolutely beautiful. Danielle and the Peltzer crew were so accommodating that it truly felt like a fairy tale. We had so many hiccups on our end leading up to the date (including emergency surgery for me just 2 weeks prior to the wedding) but I didn’t stress out at all. From the bridal suite cocktails, the air stream for the boys, and our personal chauffeur, Debbie, the entire day was incredible!! I’m still smiling thinking of it. Not to mention, the amount of compliments I received afterwards about the atmosphere, the food, and the experience were amazing. So many people took the time to tell me it was the best wedding they had been to. If you want a dream wedding, then Peltzer is where you need to go!
