Hidden gem
This venue was a true hidden gem with a secret garden vibe that had our Disney loving hearts soaring. When our first venue fell through and we were panicking to find another venue in time for almost 200 guests we had lost hope after looking from almost every venue from Sarasota to Pensacola, nothing felt right for us. Then we found The Garden Villa and our faith was restored! Truly everything must happen for a reason because I could not think of a more perfect venue for us. We just had our ceremony there but it was perfect. We did our first look photos in the arched greenway section and it was magical. This venue’s indoor and outdoor space is perfect and just breathtaking. Our reception was at the Winter Park Farmer’s Market and The Garden Villa complemented it perfectly. It’s a beautiful space you can customize to be your own however you choose. There isn’t a big getting ready space, there are two rooms with a single private bathroom in the back of the building that are great for getting freshened up or just getting dressed only (we had hair and makeup done before and just got dressed there and that worked perfectly for us). The Villa staff was always professional, kind, and patient and a delight to work with and always answered my questions! I can’t recommend enough!! -

I Gotta give a shoutout to Alycia, she was professional, knowledgeable, and amazing to work with! Everyone on the cocktails/Garden Villa team did an amazing job at bringing out big day to life. Not to mention, we’ve been speaking with them for two years as our wedding got postponed due to the pandemic. So easy to work with and accommodate all of our requests. This venue is amazing if you want to dress it up or make it your own. Its so versatile and beautiful inside and out. -

The Garden Villa is the cutest yet romantic venue in Winter Park. It truly is a hidden gem. I had my ceremony outside on the deck with the trellis and reception inside the building - it was perfect! The grounds on the property made for a perfect scenery for wedding photos! -

Brittany Sent on 04/01/2018There is a beautiful woody/garden area for a ceremony and a gorgeous brick patio setting for a reception. The owners are very accommodating to different needs and dreams! We can't wait to see what happens as we continue building closer to our wedding date! -

When choosing a venue, my main goal was to find a place with an outdoor, garden setting...but where we'd not be intruded upon by random visitors. Some of the more public areas cannot keep onlookers from passing through. Garden Villa is a perfect location for that indoor/outdoor garden wedding...will full privacy for your party. So many lovely photo op areas, and beautiful nooks for photos...and its "all" yours on that day...no strolling bird watchers or family picnics in the background.
The inside was redone not too long ago, and so the room is a little different from the 3-D viewer on wedding wire. There is no longer a stage at one end of the room (which is much better). The gardens are well kept, and beautiful at any time of year. Definitely put this on your list!!! -

This venue was beyond gorgeous. We first visited in March and went several times throughout throughout the year till our wedding in January and in every season itwas beauriful. Bridal suite-- not super fancy but completely closed off with a door and with a bathroom. Recently redone wood floor inside also beautiful. -

We had such a great experience with this vendor. They were flexible with multiple details we inquired about. The venue was a perfect blank canvas for us to create the wedding we had visioned! -

Cortney Sent on 02/05/2018There is just so much to say about this venue! I was extremely close to giving up on my venue search when I came across the Florida Federation of Garden Clubs on a blog. I didn't know too many details, but I knew I wanted both my ceremony and reception to be outdoors. When my husband and I visited the site, we fell in love immediately.
The garden is nestled in the heart of Winter Park and is secluded where you truly feel like you are in your own world. What more could you ask for on your wedding day? The garden looks like a blank canvas at first glance, but it is so full of potential.
We had our ceremony on the grassy lawn that is shaded by many tree canopies (we advised guests to wear flats or wedges since we chose this area). After our ceremony, the guests walked on the sidewalk around to the ivory wall where cocktail hour was held. Our reception was on the patio covered area and I couldn't have been more pleased with our venue choice. It was truly idyllic.
I didn't have too much interaction with the staff at the Garden Club, but when I did they were very resourceful, directing me to who could help me with the question at hand. Overall, the value of this venue cannot be beat and if you have a vision for your wedding, the Florida Federation of Garden Clubs is the perfect canvas.
