The Garden Chateau - Venue Spotlight - Winter Garden, Florida
Next up in the venue spotlight series is The Garden Chateau. Located in Winter Garden, Florida, this venue is the perfect spot to have your wedding when you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Orlando. From the second I pulled into the circular driveway out front, it felt like I was a thousand miles away from the chaos that is the most popular tourist destination in the world. The Garden Chateau is the ideal blank canvas for any wedding you can dream up. There is enough space to host any wedding, from an intimate affair to a grand gala.

Q&A With The Garden Chateau
1. WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE RENTAL FEE?
The rental fee for The Garden Chateau includes 15 hours of access to all public areas on property. This includes valet parking for guests, a ceremony area, a cocktail hour area, a reception area, the catering kitchen, restrooms for the guests, a bridal suite, and a groom area. Your 15 hours start at 9:00AM and run until midnight. The reception must end by 11:00PM, and cleanup must be complete by midnight. Any overages in time may result in additional fees.
2. ARE OUTSIDE CATERERS ALLOWED?
Yes! The Garden Chateau is one of very few venues in town that allow you to bring in the caterer of your choosing. The caterer may use the onsite kitchen to warm food, but everything must be cooked off site. Both the caterer and bar must have liability insurance to work on the property.
3. IS THERE A PREFERRED VENDOR LIST? IF SO, IS THERE A CHARGE TO GO OUTSIDE OF THE LIST?
Yes, there is a preferred vendor list, but there is no charge to use someone not on the list.
4. WHAT IS PLAN B IN CASE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER?
It is a good idea to keep an eye on the weather forecast leading up to your big day. If rain might be coming, you should look into renting a tent for the outdoor areas. If you have fewer than 130 guests, the wedding may be moved inside the home itself.
5. HOW MANY WEDDINGS DOES THE GARDEN CHATEAU HOST IN A DAY?
The Garden Chateau hosts a single wedding a day. You will not need to worry about working around other couples’ celebrations.
The grand staircase is the first thing you see when you walk in the front doors. This is a popular ceremony location for smaller, intimate weddings.
The library is one of the more versatile rooms. Depending on the size of your celebration, this room can be used for the cocktail hour, a buffet serving area, or even the reception area.
Speaking of cocktail hour, the balcony is another popular location. The balcony has breathtaking views of the rest of the property.
The catering kitchen.
With the foosball table and the big screen TV, the groomsmen will love getting ready in this room. The bridesmaids may also lay claim to it.

Shingle Creek Park Engagement - Kissimmee, FL - Z & A
Have I mentioned before that I just love the stark contrast of formal clothes with the great outdoors? There's something almost ethereal about it.

Stylish is the word that I would use to describe this gorgeous couple. I am in love with how their formal clothing juxtaposed with the very rustic nature of the park we were shooting in.

Lakeland Wedding - Emily & Natan
I'm so happy to finally be able to share this wedding with you all. E & N were such a sweet couple to work with, and their happiness oozed into every facet of their wedding day. Also, their wedding was simply elegant and so pretty to photograph. You have to see the look on N's face when he saw his bride coming down the aisle. Too cute!
