Since the wedding suppliers are the ones who practically consider these venues as their work stations, we asked them to name us their Top 10 Garden Venues. Since most of the wedding professionals we asked are Manila-based, it's quite understandable that their choices are those situated within the capital or its nearby out-of-town locations. We're sure there are other noteworthy garden venues elsewhere in the country that is just waiting to be discovered. For now, let's focus on the more popular choices. Below the name of each venue, we also provided the pertinent contact information and the maximum capacity as provided by the each venue. For a short description of these locations, we sought the help of our friend, Tisha Rosales of Balay Kandila since her company already have experienced styling these wonderful garden venues. Countown to Top Ten 10. Ville Sommet (maximum capacity of 350 guests) Breathtaking surprise. The downhill view when you enter this mountain hideaway literally takes your breath away.
