An Exceptional Wedding Starts at Southern California’s Most Magical Venue

happily ever after begins here

Nestled in the hills between Thousand Oaks and Moorpark, Eden Gardens is a Southern California wedding venue that feels worlds away. Guests can explore the gardens and gather by the fountains while you enjoy expert coordination and the option to reserve our private get-ready cottage and bungalow. Located just minutes from the 101 FWY, it’s a tranquil escape designed for unforgettable moments.

What If Every Part of Your Wedding Day Felt Like the Best Part?

The moment guests arrive, they’re transported to a dreamy Southern California garden oasis. Meandering through shaded garden paths, pausing at fountains then arriving at your ceremony overlooking the tranquil pond.

After your vows, sip cocktails under the palms, then follow twinkle-lit trees to an open-air reception surrounded by water features and softly glowing lights. Each stunning location is unique and enchanting.

The Perfect Wedding You’ll Never Have to Plan

Every wedding at Eden Gardens includes professional day-of coordination by Velvet Alley Events. A lead and assistant coordinator arrive early to oversee setup, direct your ceremony, manage the flow of your reception, and handle every small detail so you don’t have to.

For a more personalized planning experience, couples can upgrade to the Month-of Coordination Package. This includes custom timeline creation, vendor confirmations, and full rehearsal direction.

“Soltana and her team had thought of and took care of all the little details we would have never thought of on our own. Not only were they extremely professional with us, but also had excellent communication with our vendors.”
