From the reviews
I shot a wedding at The Gardens in Fall of 2022; I hope to be back! Absolutely stunning venue! So many options for photos and being outside! The tent is so nice to have for the reception. The bridal suite was comfortable and open for getting ready photos.
My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Gardens on October 10, 2020. Leading up to our event, Gardens staff was very friendly, responsive, and helpful as we planned for the safety of our guests. The space itself is stunning!
Beautiful location and lots of great areas for a wedding. The owners are wonderful to work with and make the space a wonderful spot for a wedding a venue. It was a joy working with them and working at the venue. Has a lot to offer and has multiple options for what you can do for a wedding.
I've been the DJ at a few weddings at The Gardens of Castle Rock and everytime I'm there I'm continually impressed with the venue as well as the owner Glen. He's always one step ahead and always has the couple's best interest at heart. Pick this venue and you won't be disappointed.
Getting married at THE GARDENS of Castle Rock
A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — THE GARDENS of Castle Rock doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
