Highly recommend the Garrison!
Bridget and the whole team at the Garrison were incredibly professional and helpful with our wedding process. They answered every question, no matter how small, and helped make our day so special. We had to change to our rain plan the day before, and they made it so easy because we had talked through all of our options well in advance. We had the best day we could have asked for. The whole staff was so kind and went above and beyond to make sure our guests and families had a great time. I highly recommend the Garrison and the team there!
Couldn't recommend more!
From our first conversation with The Garrison, my husband and I felt completely at ease and confident that they would bring our wedding vision to life. Their communication was prompt, supportive, and consistent throughout the entire planning process. On the day of our wedding, we didn't have to worry about a single thing - the team had everything under control. They collaborated seamlessly with our other vendors to ensure a flawless event flow. The Garrison's attention to detail and organization was unparalleled, and the views from their venue were simply breathtaking. We were blown away by the incredible value we received for the space, service, and execution of our special day. The Garrison truly made our wedding dreams a reality, and we couldn't recommend them more highly.
The best venue out there
From the moment we booked our wedding at The Garrison, their communication was always responsive, anticipatory, and truly excellent. The quality of their work and overall value was fantastic - no ask was too much, and they accommodated our needs and exceeded our expectations at every turn. My bridal attendant, Fatima, was an absolute lifesaver and I am so grateful she was with me on our special day. The Garrison team made our wedding day perfect, and we cannot recommend them highly enough.
Beautiful venue & first-class service
The Garrison itself is absolutely stunning - even more beautiful in person - and the staff was warm, attentive, and professional throughout. Our guests are still raving about the food, and the entire space came together perfectly for both the ceremony and reception. What really made the day seamless, though, was the team that supported us. Annie, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute godsend. We were juggling unpredictable weather, miscommunications, and a whole lot of last-minute uncertainty, and she handled it all with such calm, measured grace. She kept things on track and gave us the gift of peace of mind - we truly couldn’t have done it without her. Fatima, my bridal assistant, was my right hand from the moment I arrived. She anticipated every need before I even had to ask - always three steps ahead, always composed, always kind. I felt fully taken care of, which is exactly what every bride hopes for. We’re so grateful to the entire team - thank you for making our wedding day so beautiful and so easy to enjoy.
