We loved it!!! We got married 10/02/21 and we had an amazing experience! We had a small but beautiful wedding…The place is beautiful and the staff is super nice and they helped us with everything we needed and Maria’s super nice and organized. She helped us have a beautiful Wedding. She helped us organize and coordinate the Wedding that day so that everything came out perfect. I recommend this Venue 100%!! More...

Okay, so this review is a bit tricky, because on one hand, Le Jardin is visually amazing. Like, in terms of the event spaces/ amenities they offer, the decor, the parking and of course the price point, like, all of those things are unmatched! But there are some disturbing flaws with regards to staff service. I would recommend that you book this space, but do not under any circumstances utilize any of their staff services if you don't have to. Let me explain...
We had our wedding there on June 12th 2021. We met with Marie when we picked Le Jardin a year in advance. As soon as I visited the place I was sold, because it really is gorgeous. (The neighborhood it's in, not so much, but the actual event space will blow your mind).
We chose their Glass House option, it is a true hidden gem. Marie offers everything from flowers to food, in whatever color scheme you can dream of. She also offers her services as your day of coordinator, for an additional $300, which we opted for. The flaws unfortunately went unseen until the actual week and the day of our wedding.
Number one is Marie is highly unorganized when it comes to finances. Even though their policy is that you have to pay your balance in full 2 weeks prior to your event date, we decided to pay a little over a month in advance.. Marie called us 3 days before our wedding, to say that she made an accounting error when charging us so we need to give her an additional $400, or else.
Next, she called me the next day to tell me that she forgot what our food choices were. Mind you, we picked our food six months prior. The choices were both emailed to her and a hard copy was provided. I'll just list the rest to sum it all up...

-The Bridal suite is a freaking sauna. The air conditioner was broken when we did a walkthrough of the venue. We were told it would be fixed by the time we had our wedding (a yr later) it wasn't.
-Marie did not pay attention to our timeline. She ended our cocktail hour after 30 minutes, without informing me. That action messed up our timeline
-The bartender that they provided was incredibly inexperienced. He did not know how to make basic cocktails. We ended up having to take nearly $1300 in liquor home, because he literally didn't open/ know how to serve it.
-Marie did not have the fruit trays & veggie appetizers that we specifically ordered for cocktail hour served. Instead, she had them displayed by the bar during the reception.
-The service staff did not make/ box up leftover food for guests (We were told by Marie at the time of booking that they would)
My vendors informed me that Marie was unreachable on the day of the wedding, hence why my cake baker was calling me an hour before I was due to go down the aisle, to tell me that they were trying to deliver/ move the cake to the set up space, but Marie wasn't picking up her phone.
-Certain desserts and decorative items that I provided for my dessert table were not displayed, nor were they returned to me at the conclusion of the event.
Overall, I'd say we had a very visually beautiful wedding. There were more pros than cons, but the cons were very significant and can't easily be overlooked. I'd say use the space, but get your own food & servers (hire an outside caterer) & bartender and day of coordinator.
The space is great but the staff is inexperienced, unorganized and thus unprofessional and ineffective in terms of mitigating your stress and taking care of the important details on your wedding day. More...

Our Wedding was on April 17,2021, an unforgettable day for my husband and I. I am truly blessed to have had the honor of Marie help us in all the ways possible for our big day. She blew me away since the first day I met with her. To say that we planned this wedding in 3 months, she made it all possible for us. The gratitude that I will forever have for Marie. From the décor, to the table settings, to the food. It was all amazing. I truly felt like a Queen. She was by my side the entire night. I never felt lost, she guided us in what needed to be done next. & still managed to have a great time to dance the night away..the staff was AMAZING, they even packed to go plates for our guests because there was food left over. Did I mention how delicious the food was? Lord everyone enjoyed the food. Some even got up for seconds. Our ceremony was held in the glass house…just breathtaking. I truly felt like a fairytale. Then followed by our reception in the main venue. This place is truly an Oasis, the outdoors is just beautiful & breathtaking. From the lights, the outdoor seating, the water fountains. I couldn’t have done with night without you Marie, thank you for blessing us Marie, for making our wedding day so special. It truly was a dream come true. You truly are a blessing to us, and we will forever hold a place in our hearts for you. More...

We had our wedding here on February 13, 2021, and it exceeded my expectations. We visited several venues and this was the only venue we visited that had so much included in the price. I have received so many complements on how well decorated the venue was during our ceremony and reception.
All thanks to Marie, who is so professional and easy to work with. I would be remiss if I didn't mention the excellent customer service provided by the staff and vendors Marie referred for our wedding. If I have another event I would not hesitate to use this venue. More...
