This year the 1st show is Sept. 21-26 and the 2nd show is Sept. 26–Oct. 1 at Jim Miller Park. The success of these great shows has been made possible by our many, dedicated volunteers.
The planning committee includes Holly Walquist, Pril Buege, Phyllis Goff, Marilynn Parker, Karen Miller, Carra Harris, Gail Brancheau, Connie Novak, Karin Guzy, Janette Clarkson, Linda Pou, Shirley Dobbins, Jack Driskell and Wilda Camp.

The Marietta Educational Garden Center – The Perfect Winter Wedding Venue
Winter and early Spring weddings are becoming popular as couples see the many benefits to holding an event during what is considered off season. Better pricing, vendors and event planners who are not over burdened with other clients, and honeymooning someplace warm during the colder months are a few of the reasons that drive many couples to choose these months for their big day.
But aside from all that, these months are truly beautiful at the Marietta Educational Garden Center. Located on Marietta’s prestigious Kennesaw Avenue, the historic home and garden sit on 3 ½ acres and feature a gazebo and lawn area large enough for tented events up to 250 people.
Take a look at a few photos from two gorgeous off season weddings – one daytime and one nighttime and see for yourself.
