The focal point of these gardens is the giant mesquite tree that draws attention to the ceremony area. Towering date palms provide ample shade for the ceremony lawn with an Old-World iron cupola and carved stone altar. Your guests will be wowed by the embellished stone staircase where you’ll make your grand entrance.

The Manor

Extravagant historic manor with exceptional gardens featuring new-world flora

Built in 1929 by Walter Strong as a family estate to share with his wife, Blythe. Expense was no object as the owners curated the best of 1920-period features and employed expert architects to create a mansion in the popular Spanish Colonial Revival style. Highpoints of this attention to detail include hand-stamped tiles, timeless décor, ornate fireplaces, a grand staircase, and a stunning balcony.

The Secret Garden by Wedgewood Weddings was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was organized, proactive, and extremely clear - they made the planning process so easy and stress-free. On the day of, their incredible day-of coordinator and staff took amazing care of my husband and I, ensuring we didn't have to worry about a single thing. The quality of their work and the overall value was extremely worth the price. I cannot recommend this venue enough, and if I could get married all over again, I would not change a single thing about our experience with the Secret Garden team.
Simply the best

Secret Garden is an incredible venue that speaks for itself, but the team behind it is even better. Everyone is so kind and truly loves what they do. They make wedding planning feel easy, stress free, and you still get to have the wedding of your Pinterest dreams. The food and services are top of the line. All of our guests raved over the venue, food, drinks, and service. Sydney and Karen are the most kind hearted people and focused on us and making our day feel special, all while keeping the entire event flowing seamlessly. If we had to go through the process again, we would choose Secret Garden in a heartbeat.

My husband Richard and I held our wedding ceremony and reception at Secret Garden by Wedgewood Weddings, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. The venue was absolutely gorgeous with lush gardens, fountains, and twinkling lights that made for a magical backdrop. From our first meeting with the events team, they were attentive, accommodating, and compassionate, making sure every detail was taken care of so Richard and I could relax and enjoy our special day. Their communication was timely and thoughtful every step of the way. The space itself was incredibly spacious and offered a wide variety of beautiful photo backdrops. Our guests raved about the delicious meal and attentive staff. I would wholeheartedly recommend Secret Garden to any couple looking for a venue that will help create lifelong memories.
Best venue!

Wedgewood Weddings as a whole was awesome to work with. I toured 3 of the venues and had previously been to a wedding at another one of their locations. When I toured the Secret Garden I knew right away that it was the perfect venue for me but getting to know the team there only solidified it even more. All of the ladies I worked with and their vendors were so kind and informative. I’m so happy with our decision to get married here.
