  Wedding Venue

  Dade City Garden Club is a hidden gem of a venue! They are extremely affordable & beautiful! We used the venue both Wednesday (half a day) evening for $200 to start setting up & the day of the wedding for $375 for the whole day! Laurie answered all my questions and was willing to help us in any way we needed. People loved the venue and were shocked on how much we were able to have it for. Thank you Dade City Garden Club for a dream wedding.

  The lady Brenda Riley was amazing and helpful. She can connect you to almost anyone you need for your wedding. The place is absolutely beautiful as well.

  I am so excited to have my wedding here, perfect for small wedding like mine will be. Lisa was very descriptive and flexible with us coming to tour the place and get an idea of what I want. Pretty and very affordable.

  Made a beautiful wedding

  My wedding turned out beautiful and I couldn't ask for better weather. For the most part everything ran smoothly only issue was that when payments were sent they would not cash checks for weeks or even up to 2 months at a time and communication was spotty. Even when they communicated that they have the check they still would wait long periods of time to cash. Other then that everything ran beautifully!

  Beautiful gardens and very affordable space, but dealing with the people who run this space turned out to be a headache. They are very slow to respond to any questions and are terrible with email. They don't take credit cards. They insisted on depositing my security deposit (which was more that 75% the total fee) before the event and then they basically stole $60 of the security deposit, claiming that we had left the venue a mess, which was false, and no proof was provided by them to show what they meant by "mess." When I confronted them about the security deposit, I was told that they had tried to reach me about the mess, which was a lie, and that they were shocked by my disrespect for their space, when I had been the last on to leave my wedding so that Icould make sure that everything was picked up. It left such a bad taste in my mouth, that I have a hard time recommending this place to anyone, but even with the security deposit issue, it was still very affordable and i got lovely pictures, so I'd just say, book this place with the forewarning that these folks will be the worst vendor you deal with.

  We are sorry you had a bad experience. Our security deposit is there to help keep the cost down. It is always up to the client to make sure the venue is clean when they are done. We are a group of volunteers who try to keep up the gardens and buildings up so its affordable for people to have beautiful weddings.
  Again, sorry and we have changed how we do our check in and out policy.

  Unfortunately I had a bad experience

  We fell in love with Dade City Garden Club as our wedding venue. It’s small and has a vintage vibe to it. The garden isn’t flawlessly kept but that didn’t really matter to us since nature isn’t flawless regardless. We paid $415 as a security deposit, that would be returned to us if the venue was returned as it was given.
  We did just that. Unfortunately the manager emailed me two days later with 36 pictures of damages done by me and my party. The only wall we hung stuff on has a tiny piece of wood that has thumbtack holes all over it already. Damages to the wall were there prior to us start to decorate (we have evidence of this) and she claims that wasn’t there before. She also claims she inspected the place prior to us going in but has failed to show us proof of before and after pictures. Pictures that I do have. The place is beautiful and worth the money! If you want to rent here just make sure you take before and after pictures of the place.
