We had such a great experience working with Brookelyn and Emily to plan our special day - they were organized, accommodating and did everything possible to make sure the day was perfect! The venue was gorgeous - our guests had a wonderful time exploring the gardens and we got beautiful photos to remember our special day.

such a dream
The RBG was our dream venue! The gardens speak for themselves. But the staff - they are one in a million. Emily and Brookelyn did everything they could to make us feel special and well taken care of on our day and everyday leading up to it. They took all the uncertainty with covid in stride and made us feel secure in all the decisions being made. We didn't need to think about one detail, they did all of that for us. The day was nothing short of perfect.

Wonderful Experience
Robin, Deanna and their teams were absolutely wonderful to work with. We had a specific vision for our wedding to be a celebration of both of our cultures and they were able to make that happen. Our friends and family are still talking about how much they enjoyed the food!

Beautiful venue. Amazing staff
I have to start by saying Brooklyn and Robin played a big part in making our wedding wonderful. Brookly’s energy is just what I needed to ease any jitters I had that day.
The gardens are absolutely beautiful and with the renovations they recently have made it picture perfect.
