Discover The Sanctuary: Venice, Florida’s Newest Hidden-Gem Wedding & Event Venue

Are you searching for a breathtaking, nature-inspired wedding venue in Venice, Florida that feels worlds away from the ordinary? Welcome to The Sanctuary at Creators Farm and Garden — the area’s newest premier wedding and event venue that combines rustic elegance, modern amenities, and serene natural beauty on one extraordinary property.

After years of thoughtful restoration and meticulous investment, the owners of Creators Farm and Garden have transformed a once-hidden piece of paradise into a stunning event space now known simply as The Sanctuary. Nestled on acres of lush, private land just minutes from downtown Venice, this venue offers couples and event hosts an unforgettable backdrop of swaying oaks, and winding nature trails — all while still delivering the comfort and convenience today’s celebrations demand.

A Venue Reborn: From Vision to Reality

Over the past several years, the property has undergone a complete transformation. What was once raw Florida land is now home to a striking 12,000+ sq ft climate-controlled metal building we lovingly call “The Sanctuary.” With its clean lines, soaring ceilings, and neutral palette, the building serves as a perfect blank canvas — ready to become an elegant ballroom, a boho-chic reception hall, or a whimsical garden-party space depending on your vision.

Just steps away, you’ll find the brand-new bridal suite and grooms suite, each designed with luxury and relaxation in mind:

  • Spacious dressing areas with natural light

  • Full-length mirrors and salon-style vanities

  • Comfortable lounge seating and private restrooms

  • Plenty of room for your entire wedding party to get ready without feeling rushed

Nature as Your Co-Host

One of the most magical features of The Sanctuary is its seamless blend of indoor and outdoor spaces. Exchange vows beneath ancient oak trees dripping with Spanish moss, host cocktail hour on the open lawn, then move into the air-conditioned Sanctuary building for dinner and dancing. Guests can stroll the property’s peaceful nature walks between events, spotting turtles, birds, and butterflies — creating those candid, joy-filled photos every couple dreams of.

Because the entire venue sits on private acreage at Creators Farm and Garden, your event feels exclusive and serene — no noise from neighboring venues, no public foot traffic, just you, your loved ones, and the gentle sounds of nature.

Perfect For Every Celebration

While The Sanctuary was designed with weddings in mind, it’s equally ideal for:

  • Corporate retreats and team-building events

  • Milestone birthday and anniversary parties

  • Baby showers and bridal showers

  • Fundraisers and galas

  • Holiday parties and family reunions

With room for up to 300 guests (seated), ample parking, and flexible indoor/outdoor configurations, the venue adapts beautifully to events of almost any size and style.

Why Couples Are Falling in Love with The Sanctuary

  • All-in-one location — ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception without traveling between sites

  • Stunning natural photo backdrops year-round (no need for extra florals to “dress up” the space)

  • Modern amenities in a peaceful, natural setting — the best of both worlds

  • Pet-friendly property (yes, your fur baby can be part of the day!)

  • Dedicated on-site coordination team to bring your vision to life stress-free
