$75-$100/hr per Wedding Spot

their own site doesn't list the rental dollar figure, but Wedding Spot lists $75/hr Mon-Thu and $100/hr Fri-Sun for ceremony and reception, plus a $100 refundable security deposit and extra security costs if alcohol is served. site mentions a 10% member discount on rental rates and a 50% deposit due at booking with the balance due day-of; general admission for seniors/students/military is $6 for comparison

-garden venue in grand junction w/ a butterfly pavilion on site, nice built in backdrop -mixed reviews on the surrounding area, one reviewer warned to lock valuables in the car and mentioned some drug activity near the public restroom outside the gate -inside the gardens itself reviewers call it clean and well kept -they also do a christmas lights display seasonally per one review, so ask if that overlaps with your date

Around $200-$1,500 depending on the space, per a 2018 photographer guide

their site doesn't post the rental rate. 50% deposit required to hold a date, balance due the day of the event; members get 10% off the rental rate. a local photographer's 2018 venue guide said couples could expect $200 to $1,500 depending on the space booked.

Reviews are overwhelmingly about visiting as a regular guest rather than hosting an event there, so there isn't much direct wedding feedback to go on. People consistently mention it as an easy, inexpensive outing with kids, plus turtles and tortoises alongside the butterflies. One review flagged the public restroom near the entrance being closed due to loitering, though the garden's own restroom stays open and was described as fine. They allow outside caterers and let you bring your own alcohol, and ceremonies can be set up indoors or outside.
