From the reviews
My husband and I recently got married at the River Road and Jasmine Houses and Gardens, and it was the most enjoyable experience working with Sarah and her team! We could not be more grateful we chose to have our wedding here.
Attended a wedding this past weekend and the venue is absolutely gorgeous! The plants are green and warm and tropical feeling even in February! The staff was very kind and professional. I hope we get invited to a spring/summer event just so I get to see the gardens again.
I was watching our wedding video recently and realize we never left a review for RRJHS! My husband and I got married here in November 2023 and everything was perfect! We did the 5 hour micro wedding package and couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our intimate day.
The River Road and Jasmine Houses and Gardens are a beautiful venue for any occasion. We got married here over a week ago and I can’t say enough good things about Sarah and her staff. The venue is absolutely beautiful and provides an indoor option in case it rains.
Getting married at The River Road and Jasmine Houses and Gardens
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
