FAQ

My daughter got married at the Marietta Educational Garden Center in August 2018. The price was a tremendous value compared to similar venues. The staff was very helpful in that they had another event that weekend but they did all the shuffling around without us even being aware.  It had the feel of getting married in a home's beautiful backyard. My daughter's wedding was 250 guests. We had a tent outside for the ceremony, food served inside, seating at tables set up under the tent (groomsmen etc helped set them up right after ceremony), and guests going in and out throughout the evening.  If you want an outdoor ceremony with greenery around this place is perfect.

The Marietta Educational Garden Center provided our Marietta Community Church with the perfect outdoor worship space last fall.  Our Sunday morning events were held on the lawn and beneath the old trees at MEGC.  The scenery was spectacular!
 
Lisa and the staff at MEGC worked closely with our team to provide everything we needed for Sunday mornings!  They were accommodating, thorough, positive and professional.  Our church enjoyed our experience planning and implementing our worship service at the MEGC.  We plan to enjoy more events there in the near future.  We highly recommend to any organization or gathering using the beautiful and historic garden center for your special event!

The Swiss American Society of Atlanta enjoyed hosting it's 2021 General Assembly meeting at the Marietta Educational Garden Center. Your center is beautifully maintained, inside and out. Our membership raved about the historic home and traditional furnishings. For the official part of our General Assembly, the meeting space was equipped with everything we needed.  The kitchen was perfect for our catering needs. Taking advantage of the covered porches, gazebo, and lawn, our members enjoyed dinning al fresco. Thank you for providing the Swiss American Society of Atlanta with a lovely location to host its annual meeting.

The Marietta Educational Garden Center is a hidden gem. The facilities are gorgeous and having the MEGC from 7:30 am to 11:00 pm was a huge plus. We never felt pushed.

Our experience was top notch. It was everything we wanted, and Lisa was a pleasure to work with.

I just wanted to let you know how wonderful our couples shower was that we hosted at the Garden Center on December 12, 2021. Lisa was such a great resource and made everything seamless for us!! The table and chairs were perfect for our guests to enjoy our Mexican fiesta and it was so wonderful that we could select our own caterer. Set up and clean up was super easy and the rate for using the garden center was the best deal is town!!! Our guest loved the convenient parking and the precious couple we showered felt so very special!!! Thank you so much for allowing us to host our event at this fabulous venue!! We will definitely be hosting future parties at the Marietta Educational Garden Center!!
