What do our Brides and Grooms have to say about Hartley Botanica?

I looked everywhere and yours is the most beautiful wedding spot in all of Ventura County. We loved our wedding and so did everyone else, I am still having people tell me how beautiful the place was.

It was a fairytale come true. Everyone was just overwhelmed with the beauty. We couldn't have been more pleased with the entire event. There could never be a bad event within such beautiful grounds. Heaven on Earth.

Thank you so much for allowing us to borrow your piece of paradise. Hartley's was everything that we had hoped and more. While we were aware of the beauty of our surroundings during our wedding and reception, viewing everything in the photographs really allowed us to step back and take it all in. The beauty of the natural setting, the pleasant staff and your assistance along the way made the hour drive from Los Angeles more than worth the trip. Thank you so much for everything.

I searched all over the L.A. area before finding your gardens. They were more beautiful than Chris & I could have ever imagined existed. What made it even better were the people we got to work with. Command, Hip Hop, Raquel, Skiff's, they were all AWESOME & really listened to what our ideas were. Thank you for helping to make our day PERFECT!

-- Kristina and Christian Harrell, Mill Valley, CA


Grounds were absolutely beautiful! I had so many comments from my guests -- they just fell in love with the gardens! Even my photographer said that he wished he had gotten married at Paliuli!! And the beauty of the gardens made our photos look incredible! Skiff's [Bakery] was great -- I got many compliments from the guests. Many said it was the best wedding cake they ever had! The food, service, and execution of my many requests were excellent. Also, [Command Performance] was so helpful and made sure that everything was perfect!

Couldn't be better! [Command Performance] is a pleasure to work with. Outstanding! It was a pleasure working/planning with your family. You made the process exciting and enjoyable. Thank you!!

Having our wedding at Hartley Botanica and using many of the vendors made everything flow so well. Trevor was amazing -- as was Jocelyn. Many people came up to me and told me that ours was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. Thank you for absolutely everything!

Actually exceeded my expectations. Everything was kept neatly and the grounds were beautiful. What a fairytale.

-- Jesse and Nicole Bozman, Moorpark, CA

You (Coordinator Wendi) and the Staff at Hartley’s are wonderful and truly made our special day one we and our guests will never forget. I have had guests tell me it was the most wonderful wedding they have ever been to and don’t want to go to another wedding unless it is at Hartley’s (and that is the truth)!!! We thank you so very much, and wish you all the best.
