Michael, the owner, scammed us. Not upfront with prices and packages. She is pushy and very disconnected. On the day of the wedding she had the nerve to up-sell her photo packages to us in front of guests. It is an outdoor venue and she told us when we booked that in the event of rain, a tent will be provided to cover the entire back yard since we paid for use of the garden. Well, our wedding was set for 7pm and it was absolutely down pouring by noon that day. When I called ahead to make sure everything was set up she coldly snapped that a tent was an extra fee and not included in our package. She said there will be no tent and the wedding will be held in her driveway under the small awning where she parks her car. I had sought legal advice to sue her for the money we wasted.
My husband and I were in a bind because we rented a house for our wedding. Then, the owner sold the house three weeks before. We looked everywhere for a venue that would allow us to set up on Friday and take down on Sunday. We found Le Jardin on Park two weeks before the wedding date. We were soooo excited! Michael was willing to work with our situation. She agreed to let us set up on Friday and have our rehearsal there and agreed to letting us do hair and makeup there and break everything down on Sunday. Our situation was different than most because we built all of our own tables and bought antique couches, we already rented chairs and any extras from a rental company. We didn't need Michael to do anything except let us use her space. Easy right? We had no idea what we were in for. The day we went to sign the contract she acted like she had never said we could do our hair and makeup there. After arguing for 20 minutes because I had already contacted the hair and makeup people and all of my bridesmaids she finally agreed to let us, but acted like it was the biggest inconvenience EVER! The day before the rehearsal dinner she text my husband that we needed to be done at 7, when she had already agreed to letting us go until 7:30, only to find out that she wanted to have drink with her friends for cinco de mayo. When we signed the contract Michael said the band had to be done at 10pm because of the noise ordinance. The day of the wedding she was 20 minutes late letting us in for hair and makeup. Also, she told all of my guests it was last call at 9:45 and told my band it was their last song at 9:45. A band can play three songs in 15 minutes. She could have let me know that it was almost 10, but the band knew to stop at ten anyway. To top it off she kept our 300 dollar deposit and lied about damages that were not there. My husband and I would not change a thing, because our wedding was absolutely perfect in spite of Michael. It's so sad that she owns this venue because, it is absolutely perfect for an intimate, outside wedding. I don't think it's worth the hassle of dealing with Michael. She says one thing and then does another and is mentally exhausting to talk or explain anything to.
Cute venue for small to medium gatherings. Would be great for a small wedding. We went for a costume party with about 3 dozen people and it did not feel too crouded.
Le Jardin is wonderful. Beautiful and very romantic. The garden is an amazing setting in which to be married. Ms. Michael is a joy...professional, caring, sweet, and detail oriented. Turn key perfectly describes this facility
I got married here 7 years ago and had a gorgeous wedding. The reception was an awesome dance party. They helped me plan everything: food, photos, flowers, music, which songs to play when. Michael is a god send for those looking for a beautiful wedding with very little hassle.
We went here for an Earth day celebration and they had music, food trucks, and information about helping to provide vegetables to kids and families.
I highly recommend this venue for any function.
