Beautiful, clean, new and bespoke.
Best Wedding of all time. Fun Fun & more Fun This place really Wowed us all. I can't wait for the next Wedding that I'm invited to at this Venue. My Woman says I'm not going unless I'm the cutest one,& she always goes.
We had a great experience using the Gardenia as the venue for our wedding. It is perfect for summer weddings in Texas due to the chapel on site, which can be used for the ceremony. The reception venue is large and can easily accommodate large groups. The owners are very quick in communication and easy to work with. Overall, it was a great experience and was the perfect venue for our wedding!
Un excelente lugar para eventos

The Gardenia Venue is one of my all-time favorite wedding venues to photograph at! My brides ALWAYS rave about their photos!!! Not only is The Gardenia beautiful in every way, their staff is incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful. There are so many photo ops around the venue for creating and capturing the most beautiful pictures! Some features I love about the venue - clean slate for ANY wedding aesthetic, spacious bridal/groom suites, gorgeous white chapel, tons of photo op locations, a beautiful pond in the back (which makes for an amazing backdrop for sunset photos!), unique and romantic vibes! It truly is a stunner of a venue. The Gardenia is the perfect backdrop for your wedding day!! Less

The bridal suite and groom suite are spacious and beautifully decorated. I loved spending time getting ready in the bridal suite. There are so many spots for pictures throughout the venue as well. The location is great too most of our guests booked hotels in Denton or at Winstar and were able to find Ubers. Thank you Gardenia!! Less
The Gardenia was the perfect place for our wedding. The venue itself is stunning and so well taken care of. Both the bridal party and groomsmen loved having incredible spaces to spend the morning. The chapel and reception spaces were a beautiful backdrop for our wedding. AND Christine and Hunter are the most helpful and SO friendly. I could not recommend the Gardenia enough for your wedding.
I would have to say this place is nice, but perhaps the best word for it is that it is adequate. It has been built in the middle of bare farmland, there are no trees, and nothing really interesting about the landscape other than the pond that's been put in. I would say the same is true of the chapel. Apart from the east facing wall of windows, which looks out onto the aforementioned pond, ther... More
I would have to say this place is nice, but perhaps the best word for it is that it is adequate. It has been built in the middle of bare farmland, there are no trees, and nothing really interesting about the landscape other than the pond that's been put in. I would say the same is true of the chapel. Apart from the east facing wall of windows, which looks out onto the aforementioned pond, there's really nothing interesting in the architecture. And the seats are simple wooden pews that look like they've barely been given one coat of paint. Lastly, the acoustics in the reception hall were terrible. I could not understand a word that the DJ was saying without directly facing the speakers, and the music was much less enjoyable than it should have been. I will say that the food and service was very good. The staff was very helpful. Less
Too far away, no seating during cocktail hour.
The Gardenia was everything I could have asked for and more! Hunter was so amazing at answering any questions in a very very timely manner! I do not regret choosing The Gardenia for my wedding!
Wonderful venue for our grandsons wedding. Nice, clean.
This venue is truly one of the most gorgeous, unique places I have seen in Texas! We searched all over for the perfect venue, and The Gardenia knocked every category out of the park! We fell in love first with the chapel and all of the insane windows, and then the massive reception hall with the best built in bar ever!

Nice
The Gardenia is the PERFECT venue!!! Hunter and Christine are very quick to respond to any questions. I highly recommend this venue!!!
Wonderful venue, spacious, beautiful view, the reception and ceremony were great spaces, very beautiful!
The venue is beautiful and spacious, and I enjoyed the wedding that I attended here. To everyone else: Caution the cop camped on the 30 mph gravel road leading to the venue location. He was there both before and after the wedding. He had pulled a few people over who were heading to the venue, and presumably there to pull over people leaving the venue.
Great facility, and great wedding! Had a wonderful time!!
What a beautiful wedding venue. Large and roomy yet, cozy and inviting. Definitely a great spot for a special occasion.

The most beautiful venue ever! Hunter and his whole team were so easy to work with, and were so detail oriented. They helped me so much through my planning process!
The most beautiful venue. It was the first venue my husband and I toured & once touring, we cancelled all other appointments. Hunter & Christine are amazing venue owners & will assist you with anything you need. Our wedding day was AMAZING!! Best. Day. Ever.
Beautiful open chapel with gorgeous sun-drenched windows overlooking the water. The reception barn was perfect for a large gathering, and the clean white walls allowed us to 'paint' the mood with LED lighting for dancing.
The venue was stunning, so accommodating, and so easy to coordinate with. Would HIGHLY recommend! The night of our dreams! A gift!

I got married at the gardenia in December of 2022! It is the most beautiful venue and made for a perfect day! The owners are so kind and are always available to answer questions!! I would absolutely recommend this venue if you’re looking for a breathtaking backdrop for your special day!!
Worked a wedding here for Selfie360, and it was absolutely beautiful! Perfect size, great service, and beautiful inside and out!
Loved the gardenia!!! The lighting was amazing!!
The Gardenia was my dream venue from before I was even engaged. My wedding was magical and the venue did not disappoint. On top of a magical venue space, Christine & Hunter went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable with my choice and were amazing through the whole planning process. I 10/10 recommend this venue to anyone on the hunt for the perfect spot to get married. 🤍

I had an amazing experience from the start! The owners are such nice, helpful people - they answered all questions I had throughout the process and gave me advice when I needed it! Every part of the venue is BEAUTIFUL!! I could tell Hunter and Christine put thought into every little detail - the bridal and groom suite were perfect size and included everything necessary for a perfect day (counter space, mirrors, music, TVs, pool table, seating space, etc.) The online planner provided by the venue was a dream when determining table layout and seating chart for the reception! Hunter and Christine also provided detailed instructions for the day off and gave an outline and many reminders for deadlines before wedding day which was so helpful during the busy process of planning! Also helpful, the venue provided tables (including many large, beautiful farmhouse style tables) and chairs - and the venue staff arranged the tables according to my floor plan prior to my wedding day! The venue’s chapel, reception hall, and outdoor space offered such convenience for decorating (no need to tear down and set ip multiple times during the event) and was the perfect set up for smooth transitioning from ceremony to reception for guests. The chapel is beautifully simple and I loved the large window at the alter! The reception hall is also beautifully simple with white walls and touches of greenery lattices and barn doors - the open concept with high ceilings lined with string lights is gorgeous and perfect for any wedding style! I loved that my caterer had a specific space to set up our buffet behind a barn door and once everyone had been served, the door was closed and then buffet was hidden - allowing the chef and his team to clean up in privacy! I cannot say enough how beautiful the venue is, both inside and outside - this includes the landscape with a water fountain, pond and livestock in the back! Overall, I had an amazing experience - if you’re looking for a fun, convenient, and visually breathtaking wedding day, this venue is definitely the way to go! Less
Couldn’t have asked for a better venue to get married at! Christine and Hunter are so easy to work with, such a down to earth couple and their team at The Gardenia is so friendly! They made the entire process to easy and smooth and they’ve created one of the most beautiful wedding venues I’ve ever seen!!!
Our wedding was the absolute best! Hunter, Christine and day of staff were so helpful and the venue is just absolutely gorgeous. Having the flexibility to able to use your own vendors definitely helps when planning, but they have great recommendations. Wouldn’t have changed a thing!
The Gardenia Venue made our dream wedding come true! I actually visited this venue when it was just a slab of concrete and small mobile home with the construction plans on paper.

The Gardenia Venue made our dream wedding come true! I actually visited this venue when it was just a slab of concrete and small mobile home with the construction plans on paper. Of course i had a little apprehension committing to promised on paper but after talking to Hunter, I KNEW this was going to be the one. He was so helpful and continued to keep us updated as construction progressed. I actually didn’t even make it out to the venue between its completion and our wedding but had absolutely no worried. It was BREATH TAKING. The view from every angle is STUNNING. It is truly what dreams are made of when it comes to a wedding venue. Christine was also so helpful in reminding me of deadlines for questionnaires and insurances they need and everything was exactly as we needed for the day off. This was actually the easiest yes of the whole wedding process (besides the groom of course). If you’re on the fence take this as your sign to say yes, although, if you see this place, I’m sure there isn’t even a question. Thank you Hunter and Christine for building the perfect place to day “I DO!” Less
We signed for this venue when it was just a slab and studs and we are so glad that we did. The venue is BEAUTIFUL and Hunter and his wife are so helpful. Highly recommend this venue for your big day.
The best day of my life. And I couldn’t have done it without the best venue out there. The process of booking was so easy, didn’t feel any type of pressure or push from the owners! Staff memebers were super helpful and nice! I loved how spacious everything was, from the bride/groom suits, to the chapel, and the actual venue itself. Absolutely loved every single bit of it. Was everything and more!
Absolutely stunning venue!! I knew the moment I saw it that I NEEDED to get married here! It was the most perfect backdrop for our special day!

We loved every second of having our wedding here on 9/2/22. The Gardenias communication was top notch and we got so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was! Trying to convince my husband for us to have a wedding here every year 🤣
Beautiful location for a wedding, plus reception
Got married here recently and truly one of the best, most beautiful venues in the area. The owners are so sweet and accessible for any questions at any point!

It wasn’t my wedding, just attended as a guest - really nice venue, great chapel, nice large reception area - can make as “nice” as you want. The destination wedding venue, just outside of town, is all the rage right now - this is a very nice wedding site.
A fun place to have a wedding and reception!
Gorgeous venue!!! Can't wait to go back one day!!
Beautiful!!
Amazing and perfect for fantastic photos. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Muy Bello Lugar, acogedor como de retrato cada espacio que tienen disponible.
I am a wedding photographer, and I chose the Gardenia venue over all the other ones I toured because of the amazing photo opportunities it had. :) They thought of everything when designing this venue. It made for a great, stress free wedding!!
This venue was a DREAM. From the chapel with the pond out back to the beautiful spacious reception hall, we had the most perfect wedding day. For the soon to be brides out there, I cannot rave enough about the owners Hunter & Christine. They were so kind and helpful throughout the whole process and I truly couldn’t imagine getting married anywhere else.
Hunter and his team at the Gardenia and wonderful people to work with! Their venue made our wedding day absolutely stunning! I can not recommend them enough.
The Gardenia is an absolutely beautiful venue! Christine and Hunter were so helpful during our planning process with answering any questions we had and always responded quickly. Beautiful property with a chapel, pond, gorgeous grooms and bridal suites, and lots of natural lighting for beautiful photos!
From the day we visited the venue to the day of our wedding we had an amazing experience. The team at the Gardenia is very helpful and thorough with all they do. I highly recommend booking your wedding at this venue if you want the freedom to choose your own vendors and also have a team that provides you with many details / help through the entire planning process.
This wedding venue fit all of our wedding dreams!! We loved every moment spent in it!
Cutest place for a wedding!
The Gardenia is a beautiful setting for a wedding. We attended a family members wedding and had a great time. The chapel was nice and had an amazing view of a pond behind a glass wall for a romantic setting. The reception hall was very nice, plenty of room for dinner and dancing. The fountain out front also made for a perfect send off for the new bride and groom.
The entire venue is absolutely gorgeous, with a lovely view of the pond and the cattle in the surrounding fields from the chapel as well as the reception room. The only complaint I have is the sound levels in the room, I’m not sure if it was the dj that had the music levels up too high or the microphone or if it was the room in general, but it got VERY loud in there.

Lovely place
Beautiful venue! Perfect for any size event!
This venue and its owners do not have the best interest of their couples in mind. Yes, it is a beautiful venue. However, it is a new venue, and therefor they’re looking for ways to collect as much money as possible. I was so excited for my wedding at The Gardenia on June 2, 2023.

This venue and its owners do not have the best interest of their couples in mind. Yes, it is a beautiful venue. However, it is a new venue, and therefor they’re looking for ways to collect as much money as possible. I was so excited for my wedding at The Gardenia on June 2, 2023. After some life-altering events, my fiancé and I had to cancel our dream wedding. Thankfully, it’s a year away in the most sought-after wedding month, so you would assume that vendors would give us grace. Most did. The Gardenia absolutely did not. Although our date will undoubtedly be rebooked, they are demanding a $750 “termination fee.” In my opinion, this is the most unethical, unnecessary and avoidable situation that any wedding venue would want. I would understand if they charged a lesser cost to account for their time. Or if they simply had to hold onto the money until someone officially rebooks. But instead of working with me, they are collecting $750 for providing NO service, on a date where they will also collect $7000 for another couples’ wedding. These aren’t the type of people you want to host your wedding. I’d suggest looking further. Less
Beautiful setting!
Beautiful venue for a wedding. The Chapel was old world charm. The reception patio had appox. 8 huge swings hanging from roof ledge of patio. Very nice banquet facility.
Wonderful wedding venue. Wonderful wedding too.
Not many venues are even more beautiful in person than they are in their photos online. Absolutely beautiful venue.
Gorgeous. A very pretty venue
Beautiful country style, smell brand new
The venue is beautiful although quite noisy. In the chapel we could hardly hear the person next to us when they spoke. A little sound proofing would have been beneficial.
It's a new venue that's still improving. It was really beautiful and the atmosphere was incredible. I thought the chapel and reception hall were way to echo-y and desperately need some sound dampening. The pews in the chapel we're very uncomfortable. Each slat of wood moved independently which made it hard to sit for the whole ceremony. If the boards were attached underneath it would make them b... More
It's a new venue that's still improving. It was really beautiful and the atmosphere was incredible. I thought the chapel and reception hall were way to echo-y and desperately need some sound dampening. The pews in the chapel we're very uncomfortable. Each slat of wood moved independently which made it hard to sit for the whole ceremony. If the boards were attached underneath it would make them better. The outdoor area looks like it was a work in progress. Some gardens, walkways and more outdoor seating would be awesome. I also noticed the grooms suite had no blinds or curtains on the windows. Made it kinda awkward for changing clothes. All these things are very fixable and would make this venue almost flawless if they were fixed. Less
Great wedding venue. Brand new, very nice.
Muy buen servicio
The Roofers are Great!!
