Outdoor Garden Weddings With Tree-Lined Backdrops in Fort Worth

0:00

We’re Hidden Gardens Venue, a 1932 stone property set among mature trees just off Highway 199, minutes from downtown Fort Worth. Couples who visit often say it feels like stepping into a secret garden, quiet, green, and close to everything. If you picture vows outdoors with an easy flow into cocktails and dinner, our garden layout makes the day feel natural from start to finish.

Whether you’re planning something intimate or hosting all your favorite people, the mix of open-air charm and historic interiors keeps the whole celebration feeling effortless.

A Garden Setting With Comfort and Flow

Guests arrive through the trees to a greenery‑covered iron arch on a smooth concrete ceremony site. After “I do,” everyone steps to the pergola‑covered patio for cocktails. On cool evenings, patio heaters keep things comfortable. Dinner follows under garden lights or inside the Roosevelt Room for a cozy feel. Each space connects, so the day moves naturally from vows to cheers to dinner.

Spaces & Capacity

• Outdoor ceremony: up to 100 guests at the concrete garden site with the greenery‑covered arch.

• Cocktail patio: pergola‑covered, adjacent to the ceremony site; doubles as an alternate entrance to keep guest traffic smooth.

• Indoor seated dinner: the Roosevelt Room seats up to 45.

Historic Interiors

The building was restored to show off its original stonework. Inside, the elegant parlor has antique sofas and a working wood fireplace. There are two indoor fireplaces (upstairs and downstairs) and a large historic bar that anchors the room.

Suites for getting ready:

• Bridal suite: lounge plus private bathroom.

• Groom’s suite: TV, gaming system, card table, and a private bathroom.

Venue Inclusions

Your venue package includes 10 to 12 hours of access to the venue and gardens, along with a one-hour rehearsal depending on availability. You’ll have use of 15 wood farm tables in both 8- and 10-foot lengths, as well as 100 wood padded chairs for your guests. The property also features indoor commercial restrooms for convenience and multiple side tables, stands, and easels that can be used for cakes, gifts, or decorative displays. An on-site manager will be present throughout your event to oversee the facility and ensure everything runs smoothly.

Food & Bar Packages

You’re welcome to choose your own vendors. Bartending is booked through the venue’s required provider, and security is required when liquor is served. Self‑catering is welcome with liability insurance. The prep kitchen includes a sink, a metal table, and a refrigerator. A service entrance gives direct access to the cocktail area, bar room, and back door.

Sample Day‑Of Flow

Most couples hold the ceremony at the iron arch, move to cocktails under the pergola, then host dinner and toasts outside or bring the celebration indoors. The Roosevelt Room’s antique tables and chairs suit a seated dinner for smaller guest counts. The garden furniture and patio create a clear path for larger groups.

Location & Photo Spots

Being minutes from downtown Fort Worth keeps travel easy for families and vendors. On site, the original stone exterior, tree-lined grounds, the historic bar, and the antique parlor provide clean backdrops for photos. Golden-hour light filters through the trees, giving you soft, flattering images without leaving the property.

Accessibility & Parking

Accessible parking spaces are placed near the main entrance, with a convenient drop-off zone. First-floor accessible restrooms are located close to the main hall. Wayfinding signs and evening lighting lead guests from the lot to the ceremony site, and staff are available to help with mobility needs on request.
