Several people have already said it, but let me assure you, Shelly is amazing! Her venue is perfect for big and small weddings. My husband and I got married November 2022 and it was perfect. Hidden Gardens was exactly what we were looking for! We had gone to see several other venues before checking out Hidden Gardens, and as we drove to see Shelly and her beautiful venue we actually talked about eloping instead. As soon as we pulled up, everything changed!
