Garden Valley Ranch

My husband and I got married at Garden Valley Ranch on 6/4/22. The moment we stepped onto this beautiful venue, we knew it was something magical. The owner, Jessica, is the kindest human and made the entire planning process so easy and stress-free. We had several wedding guests tell us that Garden Valley Ranch was the most incredible wedding venue they had ever been to.

We feel so lucky to have been able to get married here, our day felt like something out of a movie. We can't wait to come back and visit every year. Thank you x a million, Jessica and family!

WOW this was an amazing spot for our wedding! There are so many beautiful areas to take wedding pictures with your honey and family photos! This is a must see spot before you pick your wedding venue for your special day! The owner of the property was very accommodating for our small wedding ceremony.

Our Family loves spending time at the Garden Valley Ranch! They have done an amazing job at creating and maintaining such a beautiful property in Sonoma County. We recommend it to everyone.

Update: We had our baby shower in the secret garden and it was very cozy and intimate. We loved the different trees that gave us shade, and the sunny spots where the light gleamed in. We have been hosting several events at GVR now and it's never been anything but magical. There are so many different sections and grounds. There is defiantly something for any type of event here. Jess and the team are wonderful. So kind, listens to your needs and delivers. Thank you for another unforgettable day.

Such a magical place! I took two 10-yr olds on a Wednesday to cut flowers (call in advance!). We were the only ones there, and they loved wandering the grounds and finding the secret garden. They also loved the geese who followed us around like puppies and the goats that they fed rose leaves.

Looking for a wedding site for my daughter's wedding. My wife and I were married here 31 years ago. The place is as we remember it, only better. The new owner was very Accommodating.

What a beautiful venue! Will definitely be having my wedding here! Love the owners, they're absolutely sweet! Love their energy!

Used to love this place and want to buy roses but every time I go in the past two years always closed! I've called and left messages, nothing. Really disappointed.

The secret garden is magical and often overlooked! We've been here for several events and it's simply stunning. So many great spots to take photos too! It's also managed by a really nice family, great customer service, and very connected to the community.

I had my wedding at Garden Valley Ranch and loved it. The venue is so accommodating and unique. If you are looking for a wine country wedding without the winery this is a great option. There are various spaces to celebrate, one of my favorites is the secret garden, a must see, perfect for first look and cocktail hour. Jessica has great communication and shared various solution when we needed them.

I loved getting to know her through the planning process. She really cares for the property and roses and it shows! We look forward to visiting Garden Valley Ranch annually to celebrate our wedding and purchase roses for our home!

This review is about a year overdue.my husband and I got married at Garden Valley Ranch last May over Memorial Day Weekend. Garden Valley is such a spectacular and intimate place that you'll immediately fall in love the second you step foot in the venue. We were lucky to have our wedding outdoors right after the first full bloom. The staff was very accommodating, especially since our wedding was hyper DIY. I could not have asked for a more perfect place to get married!

I photographed a wedding here and I can't get over this venue. It is so unique and gorgeous. The venue requires little decoration because it already is so stunning. And it's isolated so it feels intimate and comfortable https://www.cailichung.com/single-post/2018/09/24/Samuel-Samantha-Garden-Valley-Ranch

Easily the most beautiful venue north of San Francisco! When the roses are blooming, the entire property feels like a small piece of heaven. In the off-season, there's an incredible rustic charm that makes you want to stay forever. Couple the incredible ambiance with an incredibly skilled team of professionals, and you have the perfect wedding and event venue. Jessica and Justin are two of the most reliable and experienced professionals in the business. Garden Valley Ranch has my highest recommendation!

Was a vendor for this wedding site a few weeks back and have never had such a bad experience from a professional site. They were anything but professional, coming out at 8PM and telling the wedding we had to turn down the music due to neighbors(ordinance is till 10PM). At 9PM on the dot the lady came out and just UNPLUGGED my DJ equipment! Are you kidding me, they were super rude and wanted us out of there as soon as we got there. I would NOT get married here! Brides beware!

Garden Valley Ranch is definitely more than what one who think of a garden nursery, As a professional photographer, I am always in search for new and interesting venues, Garden Valley Ranch is a hidden jewel. This 5 acre property is a fairytale experience perfect for engagement, wedding or vow renewal. All the lively and beautiful roses! The fountains, paths, arches, and beautiful landscapes will take your breath away!

Did you know that each breed of roses has its distinct scent? Not all rose(water) are made the same (it also takes hundreds of thousands of petals). I was at a dinner event that Jessica and Justin hosted with a local butchery Thistle Meat, winery, and musician. Couldn't have asked for a better way to spend the evening. Not only learned a ton about roses, but met an incredible community of talented makers and builders :-) The Garden Valley is a minimalistic series of mini gardens and sculptures that climaxes to the breathtaking rose garden.

Obviously makes for a gorgeous wedding venue, but they also host various special events so you don't need to dig up an excuse. Just show up and you won't regret it. Last time Jess let me leave with a few different buds. They blossomed over the next week and, I agree with her, "Heritage" definitely has the sweetest scent.

Garden Valley is charming and delightful and full of gracious people who patiently attend to visitors and guess as if they were cherished clients or dear friends. The grounds are ample and lush with plenty of hardscape for those who like to wear fancier shoes or who aren't as sure footed on uneven surfaces. Little kids, big kids and adults will be whisked off to a more nostalgic time when the country was full of family farms, you and the neighbors gardened and everyone sat on their porch drinking sun tea and talking about the weather and what would becoming into season

Gorgeous grounds and very kind folks! Take the time to stop and smell the roses! 8,000 of them! Stunning! New owners are putting in lots of fresh love and attention to this historic property.

Fell in love on the first visit (in January) before the the roses were in bloom. Steeped in history with incredibly maintained 120+ year old structures and very charming gardens. Came back again when the roses are in bloom and just WOW! Highly recommend for a casual weekend visit or even better a party of any shape or size. Garden Valley Ranch is awesome!

This place is just such a beautiful magical rose garden right in Petaluma, just a short drive from the city. The Rose gardens are breathtaking, with lots of cute little paths to take you around the premises so you can explore the carriage house, pond, fountains, secret garden and nursery. They have over 100 species of garden roses and the newly renovated grounds really do make it an enchanting space for an indoor or an outdoor event.

Yesterday we joined their Thanksgiving event which was spectacular. With the beautiful pink sunset we had champagne and fresh Oysters from the oyster bar. Then we proceeded into the recently renovated Carriage House which seated all 70+ of us but looks like it would easily accommodate 100+. The dinner was delicious and it's really a wonderful place for a wedding/ engagement party or company event. Highly highly suggest checking it out.

Garden valley ranch is filled with such beautiful and fragrant roses. Jessica gave us a very informative tour of the grounds which included a rustic carriage house and cottage. We attended a private evening event that included strung lights, fire pits, photo booth, oyster bar, and an amazing guitarist. The first floor of the carriage house had a wine bar and appetizers and the guest moved to the 2nd floor for a quaint and intimate dinner.

This place has so much to offer for any kind of event: wedding, birthdays, anniversaries and holiday parties. I highly recommend coming out for a tour if you are looking for a special venue.they are also very dog friendly! I can't wait for the new seasons of roses! And they also provide different flower workshops which include wreath making, flower crowns, and wearable flower jewelry. Check out their website!

Beautiful and tranquil rose garden and heritage buildings. I went to tour the grounds and explore the rose varieties but discovered so much more. A hidden garden; Victorian cottage, which is available for overnight stays and a heritage barn perfect for any function. They recently hosted a chef's dinner with locally renowned chef and butcher, Travis Day owner of Thistle Meats.

The locally sourced ingredients were paired with wines from Barber Cellars. I'm sorry to say that I was not able to attend but look forward to future events and hopefully intimate concerts as well.

This place is amazing, I was in downtown Petaluma searching for a venue to throw a party for a family reunion and came across Garden Valley Ranch. The staff right from the beginning was very accommodating in answering all my questions and actually had some great suggestions on how to maximize on the space. It has a part that is quaint and intimate to large open places for a band or lecture, the prices were spot on.

Great place for a wedding, family reunion, team building events and concert. I definitely think the new owners have really spruced this place up and made it really welcoming. This is truly a hidden gem of Petaluma, I will definitely use them again.

Mother's Day at the Garden Valley Ranch! Music, arrangement workshop for kids, and picnicking on the grounds! Best way to celebrate Mother's Day with the community!

Such a beautiful piece of property! Right when you step on the grounds you can smell the flowers. The secret garden was my daughter's favorite place. The guest cottage is mine. And, you can rent it out! It's so warm, inviting and peaceful. A solo getaway to the cottage is in my future no doubt. The new owners are doing an incredible job. Their Mother's Day Open House was such a delight. They are off to a wonderful start. We will definitely be back!
