Rene, the owner of La Grande Estates, truly delivered a wedding experience beyond anything we could…read morehave imagined! From the very beginning, she worked seamlessly alongside Kendra and her team to coordinate every single detail to perfection. The entire day felt effortless on our end because Rene had everything completely under control. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking--our lakefront ceremony on-site was stunning and set the tone for the entire celebration. Guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful and serene it was. From there, the night just kept getting better. We had an incredible violinist (who even performed with Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl!) which added such a unique and elevated touch. Our grand entrance with cold sparklers was unforgettable and felt like something straight out of a movie. And then--our Glambot moment! It truly felt like we were at the Oscars, and our guests had an absolute blast with it. To make things even more unforgettable, our Frenchie was our flower girl and made a grand entrance in a Porsche kids ride-on car, completely stealing the show. And as if that wasn't enough, our 100lb Sulcata tortoise was our ring bearer--yes, really! Rene handled all of these unique details flawlessly like it was just another day at the office. Dinner was elegant and delicious, perfectly plated and timed, and the cocktails were amazing--our guests loved that the bar stayed open all night. Rene also did an incredible job keeping the energy up and guests engaged from start to finish. There was never a dull moment. We've had countless guests tell us it was "the wedding of the century," and we owe so much of that to Rene. If you're looking for someone who will execute your vision flawlessly and create an unforgettable experience, she is the one!

The staff under the direction of 2 generations of strong women coordinators made sure that nothing was overlooked.

Cool cigar patio to the left of the entrance ( could use some outdoor electric fans in summer & heat lamps in winter. Very clean bathrooms & 2 bartenders! I would definitely attend another event here if invited. Also lots of mounted TVs so probably sports event friendly when they turn them on. Swing on by!

Everyone was always so kind and understanding, always kept very good communication and respond fairly quick to any questions or concerns we would have. Truly made our whole planning and the day of experience as easy as one can have planning a wedding they were very welcoming and understanding with everything we had brought to them and was more than willing to work with us with our culture, vendors, family, and everything else that came along with the day. We especially really appreciated Jaime she had helped us most being our coordinator she was a rockstar and made all our dreams and visions come true, one of the sweetest most understanding women we had ever met. The venue also itself is beautiful and not too expensive at all compared to other venues we had looked at. Definitely would do any form of special event there and amazing for photos! We are truly blessed and thankful for everything we received and had help with for our wedding day and will definitely always keep in mind with happiness Brownstone Gardens.

We live next to Brown Stone Garden, and unfortunately the noise has become a recurring issue…read more Tonight, at around 1:20a.m., music was still playing well past midnight, making it difficult to sleep I understand that event venues are meant for celebrations, but they should also be respectful of the people who live nearby. Over the years, more homes have been built in the surrounding area, and it's becoming increasingly difficult for residents to enjoy a quiet night when events continue this late. A successful venue should be able to host memorable events while still being considerate of its neighbors. I hope management takes the concerns of the surrounding community seriously and works to better manage late-night noise.

WAAAY back then I knew I wanted to marry here even before I found my husband because of a wedding I attended here as a girl. I remember thinking how romantic it was. Children see the fantasy as reality and in my mind it was a magical place. (FYI, the marraige I am speaking of is still going strong). Anyways, when it came my turn to promise my never ending love to the man of my dreams ( October 19,1996) I was certain of the location. Back then the creek had water in it and you could hear it!! Even then it was expensive. We rented the entire property as we had 249 guests. There was an option to rent just the garden area for less but that would have meant the possibility of swimmers in the on-site pool. The evening before our event there was an unfortunate FIRE in the gazebo!! My rockstar mom-n-law (who also made all the flowers/decorations) barely cussed and fixed it before I even noticed. The reception area was clean albeit older. The bathrooms, even then could have used an update. Parking was a tad difficult but doable with a volunteer who loves you to play valet! The kitchen/bar area worked well, but we only used it as a bar. The caterer (Back Forty BBQ) set up outside. My brides room was big enough for me + 6 girls to get ready. We were all skinnier back then. lol Everyone had a memorable time, I still hear about it sometimes now-a-days. Plenty a room for large groups. AND it is public so on our anniversary or whenever we want we visit/picnic/toast to forever.. Unforgettable!! On a side note, I have noticed some areas in disrepair currently. Maybe get a discount and grab your craftiest friend and make it work! Even if you are not throwing an event, it is a lovely place to visit.
