Venue at the Grove

Truly amazing! They blew us away! We could not have imagined a better wedding for our daughter from beginning to end. It was like being in the restored garden of Eden. It was the most beautiful wedding ceremony and reception EVER! We worked with the most exceptional Sales Manager, Mary Kate, from beginning to end and sweet Stephanie was our Event Manager. Both were phenomenal and lived up to all their core values listed on their website, and then some! I cannot say enough good things about them and the venue. They provided all the options and walked our daughter through planning her wedding every step of the way. Everything was precisely executed and flawlessly completed on her wedding day. We are grateful.

The best word to describe our wedding day at Venue at the Grove is MAGICAL!Weddings are stressful but working with the Olaya team made the whole planning process not only easy and stress free but fun!This venue's beauty speaks for itself and the variation of spaces for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception help set the mood and gave a great flow for the entire event. Venue at the Grove transports you and your guests to a lush, romantic, outdoor wedding space in the middle of the Phoenix desert. There is nothing like it in the Valley!We also can't say enough amazing things about our day of coordinator Rachel. She had such an infectious calm presence and did such a brilliant job staying on top of the little details and making sure things moved seamlessly. Ben, the catering manager was beyond helpful and friendly and we were happy to have him be a part of our day.Venue at the Grove truly is a one of a kind event space that helped make our day unforgettable!

Gorgeous setting for a wedding we attended! Heated lamps for a cool evening outside and gorgeous sunset. Would have loved to have my own wedding in an outdoor place like this.

What a beautiful venue! I attended a Wedding here and at first, as I approached I wasn't sure if I was going to the correct location as it's in a residential area. Once you pull into the gravel lot, parked, and walked up, it started to look more like a venue. Beautiful!!! What a gorgeous setup!!! Although I'm allergic to grass, the greenery was amazingly beautiful and reminded me of the Midwest which, I love as it had a homey vibe. The barn-like doors on one end of the venue were lovely as was the bar area on that end as well. The building itself is small and quaint and made for smaller gatherings and events but the outdoors were perfect for bigger weddings/ events. There are bathrooms on-site in the building. I know that in the winter months it's beautiful there. It's perfect in the summer too but, I wouldn't recommend a June-Aug event outdoors unless they place a/c units and misters outside on every inch of the property. Az just gets way too hot for events during those months to be held outdoors. I liked the decor and setup choices. I loved the hors d'oeuvre served but I was not a fan of the food at all but it wasn't about me. Lol, The staff that came with the venue were all nice as I assumed that if you book here, you have to use their staff and catering but I'm not 100% sure. They also have a couple of outdoor bar areas where you're able to provide cocktails to your guests. There's plenty of free parking in the gravel lot, so where flats and carry heels to avoid damaging them. Ladies, Since it is outside on all grass, you may want to consider carrying flats for walking around to avoid heels digging into the grass. The tables are set up on concrete so you're able to wear your heels after the wedding( if the event is setup that way). I also noticed that, because it is in a residential area that the noise ordinance is a factor, therefore, it was hard to hear the DJ, and the time to end events due to Phoenix ordinance, I believe is 10 pm. Something to consider as well. Overall, a Great Wedding venue! I'm looking forward to attending more events at this location... winter months though

We eloped here in June 2020 after COVID19 cancelled our original wedding plans. The Venue at the Grove provided an affordable, beautiful setting for a tiny wedding. Even though June is not an ideal time to get married in Phoenix due to high temperatures, we weren't too hot. We had a ceremony in the morning before the afternoon heat set in. Ample shade in the grove itself, paired with lots of grass, made for a cooler microclimate. I worked with Karley to schedule our tiny wedding, and she was a doll! She was responsive by phone and email and overall very pleasant to work with. Our "day of" coordinator helped everything go smoothly - I wish I remembered her name so I could thank her properly! The elopement package cost us less than $650. We had 1.5 hours on the property. The package included chairs, a beautiful arch with a fabric draping and access to their bridal suite.I think the Venue at the Grove would make a nice location for a more formal wedding so please take a look here if you're a bride-to-be! The landscaping is lush, the grounds are well-kept and the staff is great. It's a total hidden paradise in the desert!

One of the most awful venues I checked out during my wedding search. Edward and his wife, the owners, were terrible to deal with and nickel and dime every chance they can get. They have an awful bartending company they outsource with too. The food is terrible when we sat down at had it platted to us, we would not recommend this to any wedding couples

Beautiful setting for an outdoor wedding. Friendly staff, great drinks. Attended my nieces wedding first weekend in March and the weather was just perfect!Food was served family style and we had long wooden tables with organic simple greenery table decor. Plenty of room for children to run around and tire themselves.Just FYI...the dance floor was also outside so no ballroom dancing for me...was really hard in the feet.They did have a hall should you want an indoor ceremony.Simply gorgeous!

Our wedding here was amazing! They took care of everything throughout the whole process. All the vendors they offer and use are absolutely incredible to work with. Everything ran super smoothly the whole day. Alyssa was so organized and ran everything behind the scenes so well. The venue is stunning. We got married in November and it was perfect weather and the grass and trees were so beautiful. It was the best experience I could ask for. I never felt stressed or worried during the wedding planning process because they made it so easy and straightforward. 10/10 recommend. I also highly recommend Tony George as the photographer. His photos are stunning and we will use him for all photo needs moving forward.

Got married this year, venue was beautiful, food was amazing. Only negative was bartending, we had custom drinks (as do many couples) provided recipe cards mind you one was a margarita, provided extra supplies but bartending didn't follow it from the get go. Wish we would have went with 3rd party. Aside from that service venue food everything was wonderful

This used to be great but now is horrible- worst customer service line is 1 hour food is another 30 min
