Wow... where to begin. The Secret Garden is THE dream wedding venue!!! The entire process, from the first visit to the day itself, could not have been a better experience. To Amy and Mas especially, thank you so much! You were absolutely incredible and could not have done more to ensure that we had the most special day imaginable. The food is something all of our guests still talk about to this day, particularly our gluten free guests who the venue went out of their way to cater for. From dropping things off the day before, to picking everything up that The Secret Garden team had gathered together the next morning, we couldn't have dreamt of a better venue. David & Meg ❤️
