We couldn’t have chosen a more perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding in Sedona! From the very beginning, Whitney was an absolute pleasure to work with—knowledgeable, responsive, and full of helpful referrals that made the planning process so much easier. The breathtaking backdrop was exactly what we had envisioned, creating a truly magical setting for such a special day. Whitney went above and beyond to help with the layout and graciously accommodated several of our special requests, always with a smile on her face. The getting-ready room worked out perfectly, and having three reserved parking spots was incredibly convenient. Her team was also wonderful, assisting with escorting guests into the venue and making everything feel seamless and organized. Our guests and photographer were so impressed with the intimacy of the space and how special and personal the entire experience felt.

The team at Secret Garden by Wedgewood Weddings was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication was quick, easy, kind, and efficient, making the planning process a breeze. The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly stunning - the venue was clean, beautiful, and cozy, creating the perfect backdrop for our special day. One of our favorite memories was the personalized photo they took of us right after the ceremony - which our planner (Sydney) then framed and wrote a beautiful note and put it on our sweetheart table, capturing a moment we will cherish forever. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and are so grateful to the Secret Garden team for helping make our wedding day so special.

Agave of Sedona was everything we could have dreamed of in a wedding venue and more. The breathtaking views, the warm and inviting atmosphere, and the seamless way the entire day flowed created the perfect setting for our wedding. From the ceremony to the reception every detail felt intentional and special, and our guests were in awe of both the beauty and the experience. What truly set Agave apart was the people. John, who hosted us, made us feel like family from the very beginning. His kindness, attention to detail, and genuine care for us as a couple was something we will never forget. After our ceremony he embraced us with tears in his eyes, and that moment captured exactly why this venue is so special. It is not just a place, it is people who care deeply about making your day meaningful. Agave of Sedona will forever hold a piece of our hearts.

Our experience so far with Beauman House has exceeded my expectations for a venue. The venue space is absolutely beautiful. My favorite thing about the venue is the bridal suite, which has amazing natural light and a gorgeous giant mirror. It is perfect for me and my girls to get ready on the big day. The venue gives a comforting, "homey" feeling with the backyard and mini house set up, and its simplicity allows the couple to put their own style to it. Matt and Holly go above and beyond in their communication regarding venue, contract, and providing vendor recommendations. Matt and Holly are aware of our budget, so Matt is consistently sending me vendors that he already works with, as well as ones that are new to him, that he thinks will cater to our budget. That is massively helpful, especially when choosing all of your own vendors and not necessarily knowing where to start. Matt and Holly have been extremely accommodating and helpful when it comes to any questions or concerns that have come up for us. I am honestly so impressed by them, they have contributed to making my wedding planning experience so easy and, so far, stress-free. I would recommend Beauman House to anybody. Thank you, Matt and Holly!! Attached is a photo Matt took for us during our first tour of the venue. :)

My husband and I got married at Legacy Golf Club back on November 17, 2023. Let me tell you that friends and family STILL talk about our wedding to this day about how beautiful, perfect, and unique it was. The venue really made the wedding just perfect from the amazing Special Events Coordinator, Shatara Jones, to the great food, the coordination of all of the vendors and the two venues we selected. We married at the Sierra Vista Lawn and had our reception at the cart pad under the twinkling lights. We had a firework show, a live band, mariachi, photo booth, and DJ. This venue can have it all and still give you an intimate family union feel to it. Shatara was just everything you would need to plan the perfect day. She provided lists of vendors and was very communicative and helpful at all times. I explained my vision and the staff brought it to life. Planning our wedding here was super low stress and turned out memorable and beautiful. I can't wait until a family member marries so we can have another wedding here! Recommend 100%.

My husband and I got married at Grayhawk in November 2023 and from the moment we toured the venue the first time we knew it was where we wanted our special day to be. We wanted our wedding ceremony and dinner to take place outside with more of a colorful backdrop versus the desert scene and Grayhawk gave us exactly what we were looking for. The Fairway House lawn was beautiful and the room inside was perfect for the party. The doors all along the walls being open and giving the indoor/outdoor feel was exactly what we wanted. Aside from the venue itself being gorgeous, the event planning team at Grayhawk was nothing short of amazing. We worked closely with Lauren from the day we picked the venue and she is absolutely great at what she does. She was easy to work with, communicate with, and very accommodating. We had some special requests like wanting to flip the ceremony space to reuse it for dinner and wanting food items that weren’t on their offered menu. She was quick to satisfy those requests and it was done so well! The food was amazing, the service the night of was top notch, and the whole night was exactly what we hoped for and dreamt of. We expected the wedding planning process to be extremely stressful, but with Lauren and her team in charge, the days leading up to it and the day of was the farthest thing from stressful! If you’re thinking about having your wedding at Grayhawk, we highly recommend it you will not regret it!

We chose Creekside as our wedding venue and we are SO happy that we did! From our first impression on the venue tour to the day of the wedding, everyone working there was so pleasant and excited to help us have the wedding of our dreams. The property itself is absolutely gorgeous. The views of the Mogollon Rim are unbeatable. We opted to have our guests stay on property with us for the whole weekend. There are so many outdoor activities to do nearby, and it was such a nice escape from the Phoenix heat. All of our guests loved it! We had the rehearsal dinner out by the big fire pit near the cabins. The staff was very attentive, the food was fresh, and the drinks were cold all night. On our wedding day, we were blown away by how helpful everyone was. We did a lot of the details ourselves, which can be overwhelming, but we had the help of Justin and Josh which made it all flow together seamlessly. One of the best things about this venue, other than the view, is the food. It is the best food we have had at a wedding and all of our guests agreed. We served steak, salmon, and chicken. Each dish was perfectly prepared. We got married at the end of June and had perfect weather. The atmosphere was chill but so fun when it was time to party! Our entire experience getting married here was exactly what we wanted.

  • Starts at $3,980

Your wedding should be a representation of your individual personalities as well as your mutual love and vibe as a couple. It showcases you in front of your guests and sets the tone as to what the new chapter of your life starts out as. It all starts with a venue. Location is arguably the most important part of the wedding planning process. It is not only the first thing that will make an impact, but the entire atmosphere will be infused into every aspect of the event. That’s why, couples who love to be outdoors, are moving away from traditional wedding options and choosing backyard weddings with a more comfortable event venue and atmosphere. You don’t need to fly to an exotic place to have a beautiful backdrop for your wedding day. While the sandy beaches and mountains are nice, the trees and blooming flowers in a garden are just as good. Another advantage of organizing your wedding outdoors is to let Mother Nature take the lead in decorating.

We couldn’t be happier with our choice of wedding venue – The Dauz was absolutely perfect! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. Dee Dee, the owner, was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was always prompt in responding to emails and made us feel so comfortable every step of the way. Our venue coordinator, Nicel, was incredible – so kind and reassuring whenever I had any concerns. She made sure everything was handled with care and attention, and it showed in every detail. The venue itself is stunning, and we’ve received so many compliments on how beautiful and amazing it was. Every moment of our special day was exactly how we envisioned it, and we are beyond grateful for The Dauz team. We truly made the right choice, and we would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a flawless, memorable experience!
