I have to say, this was the best decision, as having no worries about set up and clean up and all those not so fun parts of hosting an event at your own home, made this so great. I was able to enjoy a comfortable atmosphere and actually talk with my guests. There was plenty of room and area for everyone to spread out so everyone could feel comfortable with spacing. Phil even made sure to have an area for some of my guests to sit apart to enjoy the Sunday football game, lol. The food was so spot on and so very tasty. Everyone had good comments to say about the venue and food! Thank you so much!

The owners were so friendly and kind and helped with the setup before the event began. They stayed engaged throughout the event too. The catered dinner and dessert are so delicious. I didn't take pictures because I believe every event they host has a customized menu. The drink selection (for a work event) is spot on. There were plenty of free parking spaces out front. Very clean; love the natural sunlight that came through. The holiday decorations were just right. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a place to host a work function.

I got the opportunity to marry the love of my life at Laurel Gardens last month. We had planned on…read moredoing a really simple, small wedding because we didn't want to become victim to the wedding industry. Well our saving grace was not a tiny wedding it was Nicole at Laurel Gardens. Everything she offers comes from the heart, she is so passionate about what she does and has a grace to juggle multiple things at once. I told her the vibe I was going for and she made it happen. She took care of so many small details that removed the pressure from us, during the time when most brides are stressed out and intense I got to kick back and enjoy the season because she had it all under control. The vibe of the venue is romantic in and of itself, everything else just amplifies that. We had an absolute blast at our wedding, our guests said the same, and we attribute a lot of that to Nicole & her husband Mikey for making it happen. Oh... And did I mention we only had 60days to plan the wedding?! No stress....if you need a venue look her up, she does not disappoint.

It was the PERFECT place for our family and friends to celebrate the marriage of our daughter. Jonathan @ The Teapot and his team did an exemplary job hosting our guests and it's such a COOL venue with a fun/joyous vibe. The Teapot is highly recommended and they delivered exactly what was expected with no surprises. We had a wonderful time and will cherish the memories for a lifetime. Thank you Teapot for making this process fun, easy to work with, and providing such a beautiful venue. Much gratitude and appreciation going your way! Brett

What can we say... WOW! Boojum Tree was the wedding venue of our dreams! The venue itself is so…read morebeautiful, perfectly matching our vibe with its greenery, eclectic decorations, warm lights, stone, wood, and water features. The settings within it are so varied and fun to hang out in and explore, and many of our guests came to tell us how gorgeous it was. Moving on from looks, Boojum Tree also has fantastic package deals, which made planning for the wedding so much less stressful from out of state. To have a set of great vendors already included (bar, catering, DJ, and day-of-coordinator), as well as decorations, silverware, linens, chairs, ceremony equipment, etc etc was the best thing and really helped us be present and enjoy our wedding. Our day-of-coordinator, Jennifer, was also incredible! She took great care of us, staying organized, moving around flowers and decorations, ensuring our wedding favors were at each table, coordinating with our other vendors, helping with an emergency dress bustling, keeping us on time, and hundreds of other things that we did not see behind the scenes. She clearly works hard and is amazing at what she does. This was the perfect venue for the best day of our lives and booking with Boojum was the single best decision we made. We cannot sing their praises enough and could not have had the wedding we did without them. We are so thankful to the team that made it happen!

We opted for the all in package where Boojum coordinated with their preferred venders to handle about 90% of the arrangements and for a VERY reasonable price. Everyone brought their A game!! Food was delicious, music was fantastic (even with a last minute DJ swap due to an emergency), and the grounds were stunning! They did everything right. Multiple beautiful backdrops available for the big day. We chose the grand fountain but soooo many other great options. Even the little things. Everyone warned us how hard it is to eat on your wedding day but as soon as we left the ceremony area to the backstage, there was a waiter for my wife and I along with the bridal party with appetizers and drink orders. Jennifer the day of works as your wedding coordinator and she does a fantastic job! Everything was so well run and on time as well. Everyone told me this was the best venue and the best experience they ever had at a wedding and I know it wasn't just them being nice! If you're the type of person who wants to be able to say you got married at Wrigley, fine. But if your focus is the best possible experience for your guests and yourselves, Boojum is by far the way to go!! These guys throw an EPIC wedding and party!!!

This was the first and only venue that I visited and I was taken away by the beauty of it. Josh was with us from day one and was very accommodating. Even when we had a last minute videographer issue, he was immediately able to help us find a professional and decent priced videographer. Even on the day of the event, we never even had to lift a finger with anything. It was truly one of the best days, and was so beautiful and elegant.

Throughout that time, communication was outstanding with every e-mail and question promptly addressed. The Grove staff walked us through every step, met every request and every spoken and unspoken need. (For example, light refreshments were provided for the wedding party prior to the ceremony. When they noticed that the guys retrieved the girls' leftovers, they prepared and sent over a huge platter of homemade chicken fingers and fries. This went above and beyond any expectations, but they didn't want the guys hungry.) Guests marveled over the beauty of the entire venue, especially with the glorious sunset and twinkling lights in the trees. The food was absolutely delicious, not your standard event food, and I heard several people remark they had never had a wedding meal this good. Our photographer told us that every meal there was excellent, but our guests especially raved over the almond-crusted chicken tenders, an add-on dish, and the horseradish mashed potatoes. The flow of events from ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner to cake to dancing to send off was flawless; our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The yard games were thoroughly enjoyed; no one was ever 'bored' waiting for the next event. The decorations and display tables exceeded the bride's vision and everything was carefully packed away at the end of the night for us; Venue at the Grove is truly a full-service wedding facility. They connected us with the best photographer (Tony George), bakery (Sugarlips...people who don't like cake loved it), DJ, bartenders, and Photo Booth people. I could rave endlessly about how pleased we were with everything. However, the biggest difference with this venue is that everyone who worked there truly conveyed that they CARED about ensuring the day was magical for the couple and their guests. It's obvious that Venue at the Grove is a business that operates out of passion for creating happy beginnings. We cannot thank them enough for their role in this special day.

It's hard to list out all the reasons I love Mini Social: the event space itself, the customization that's possible, the location in Old Town Scottsdale, the kitchen, the storage space in the back, the lighting, 2 bathrooms inside, and all the options with the furniture (tables, chairs, couch, coffee table, etc) are all 10/10. Beyond this though, the team behind Mini Social is what stands out at the top of my list - they are truly so unmatched. You won't meet people more committed to making your event magical. While many people use Mini Social for private parties, baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, corporate events, etc, my experience has been with hosting craft socials for women's community events. I felt so supported by the team and got so much help from them in customizing the setup for my needs, plenty of time for setup and cleanup, and epic communication. They are absolute pros! Jessica is super talented when it comes to design elements, florals, balloons, etc. I feel like planning and hosting events can be so stressful and there are so many moving elements. It can be hard to let go of control or certain aspects in planning - but Luke & Jessica make it so easy and operate like your teammates. Cannnnnot wait to host another event here!
