Garrett and Ashley’s Stonebridge Manor Wedding

Stonebridge Manor is one of the most beautiful garden wedding venues in Mesa, Arizona. Located in the Phoenix area, this Wedgewood Weddings venue is known for its lush greenery, mature trees, romantic pathways, elegant reception spaces, and iconic stone bridge that photographs beautifully year round. As Arizona wedding photographers, we love photographing weddings at Stonebridge Manor because the venue offers incredible lighting, multiple ceremony locations, and timeless architecture throughout the property.
Stonebridge Manor is a hidden gem in Arizona, if you live in the valley you are probably already aware at how difficult it is to find a lush green venue without traveling atleast an hour or so up north. Not only does Stonebridge Manor have two different areas for couples to access for their wedding but the property is HUGE! There are photo ops at nearly every corner with a flower garden, a stone bridge, a courtyard, balcony, the list goes on! It is such an elegant venue and pretty decently priced compared to other local venues, I definitely recommend scheduling a tour to see for yourself!
