A Curated Guide to Reasonably Priced Wedding Venues in Orlando with an Outdoor Ceremony
The Garden Villa
Technically in Winter Park, The Garden Villa is an elegant garden wedding venue that features multiple outdoor ceremony options; you can either get married in the courtyard surrounded by nature, or in a more nature-bound lawns among the largest trees on the property. This venue has wonderful open spaces that make you forget you’re in the city (while retaining the convenience of actually being in the city). As the sun sets, the golden hour cuts through the trees with rays that create beautiful light for wedding photos. The Garden Villa can accommodate up to 120 guests, and it includes an air-conditioned reception building.

There’s also a beautiful pond and a picturesque dock with a stunning view of the lake. Kraft Azalea Garden is a great choice for small weddings, elopements, and intimate ceremonies. This venue can host up to 25 people including the bridal party, but it can also be booked for a small fee just for wedding photos in case you’re having your wedding somewhere else that lacks the nature you want featured in your photos.
