Vendor Spotlight of the Week- Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens

Located in Belmont, Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens is the perfect venue for weddings, corporate events, adult & kid birthday parties, and celebrations of any kind. The 110-acre venue has multiple themed gardens that would be a stunning backdrop for any event. The space was purchased in 1991, but did not open for wedding spaces until 2003. Since then, hundreds of couples have put their special day in DSBG’s hands for a multitude of reasons.

If you have not visited the grounds, we highly encourage you to as the beauty is unreal! On top of the gorgeous backdrops, the faces behind the success of the venue are always going above and beyond for every event. The Event and Sales Coordinator Aly Bridwell works with each bride and groom to ensure their wedding day is picture-perfect. She handles it all from the inquiry to the venue tours to working with all vendors of the event.

Aly’s favorite event that she has been a part of at DSBG was a memorial service. She says, “A guy’s wife passed away. We knew he was in a tough place. We worked with him to get a good price, so he could have it in the gardens where his wife would have enjoyed it.”

Aly has been in the event industry for about four years now. She says “The look you see on a bride’s face at the end of the day when you know they are happy and satisfied is incredible. Just knowing that we were a part of making that happen is the best feeling.” The staff is all intertwined at DSBG, so you can work with anyone and get the best customer service that makes you feel welcome from the moment you are greeted to your event.

Aly and the team at Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens love working with Split Second Sound. When looking for preferred vendors, Aly wants people who live up to their mission to create an inspiring, unforgettable garden experience. Aly says, “SSS makes it easy for me. They always make everything go smoothly and help create a great event”. SSS was the hired DJ Entertainment for the first wedding Aly did at DSBG. She said if she was missing anything, our team helped her out. That is what vendor teamwork is all about in our books!! 

This venue is just getting started though as the expansions never end. Whether it is new exhibits or renovating bridal suites and the white garden, anything they can do to make it a better experience for clients, they will do. We are always excited to receive a referral from this incredible venue and never get tired of creating memories for customers there. Working alongside other vendors who are so well respected but also enjoyable to be around makes another day “in the office” not even feel like work. We value our relationship with this team tremendously and admire them for all the reasons above.
