Great venue, that truly is a hidden jewel - true to their namesake. They have all of the amenities you would want for your next event, whether it be a wedding, corporate event, or simply a big party with your friends and family.

I called about a possible location to do a wedding ceremony. I talked to the owner, and I explained to him that all we need is a gazebo and 30 chairs on a Wednesday. We will do the decorating and teardown. He told me that for something like that. He would charge 100-150.. He told me that he would open up the building for us to have access to the bathroom and if we wanted to take our time and do photos after. It's no big deal. So we were on board and as far as we were concerned. The handshake over the phone was done. He said that he would have a lady send over an invoice to lock in the day and time and he didn't need a deposit. Just to pay the 150 on the day of the ceremony. Perfect...Well, then it went downhill after that. Two days later we got a text from this lady (The Upseller). She was talking about this and that and the prices for this and that. We explained to her that's not what we wanted and the owner already agreed to do what we wanted to do for 150. Well, over a few texts. He spoke up in the group text and said that he was sorry and would usually charge 750 for a 3 hr block and because he messed up. He would charge 500.We'll do something else..So be careful dealing with these people.

Had our wedding here on 4/29. Seriously could not have been happier! Sharon made the entire wedding planning process so smooth. Everybody kept asking me why I'm not stressing.... It was all thanks to that woman right there! She made our decorations so perfect for our ceremony and reception! She helped us find the most perfect photographer (Garrett) and a really cool DJ (Bob)! She convinced us to go with Texas Roadhouse for our catering which was absolutely phenomenal and a total hit! The venue and the scenery were so beautiful. Everything went so smoothly. Everybody always talks about how not everything always goes right on your wedding day but I seriously have not one complaint. The cake was absolutely phenomenal (Stacy Hill). JC was our bartender and he did an amazing job at keeping our guests hands full! They have an unlimited supply of resources for vendors and they have an unruly amount of decorations to choose from to make your day perfect. Oohh p.s. DO THE PHOTO BOOTH.... biggest hit!

Super cute place. I was a guest at a formal dance here. Fun decor, decent sound system, ample parking (though it's all gravel parking which could be a problem for some people). I don't know what of that was the location versus what was added by the hosts, but it was all great. I was impressed.

Thank you Sharon and J.C. for allowing us to use The Hidden Jewel for Robert's 17th birthday. When Sharon heard about Robert's courageous fight with cancer, she and JC generously donated their venue, time, and services. Sharon was in constant communication with the planning and updates as well. For this, our family is eternally grateful. This was the first year Robert was able to celebrate his birthday with a large group of people since his diagnosis, and it's a day we will never forget. It was a truly special and fun experience. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. I highly recommend using this venue.- The Rodriguez Family

I had my wedding here in September and everything was beyond what I ever could have imagined for my dream wedding! There were absolutely breathtaking decorations and table centerpieces, and a beautiful glass chandelier in the middle of the dance floor. The bridal room and groom's room were incredible, with plenty of room to relax. Huge, clean bathrooms with multiple stalls as well! Sharon and J.C. were both very friendly and very easy to work with from the first time we visited the venue. We weren't sure how to do the whole wedding thing at the beginning of our nine month engagement, and Sharon and J.C. were very helpful throughout the whole planning process, and even helped us to pick out a wonderful caterer that fit our budget! They really made our dream wedding come true!! Everything was planned so well, from the layout of the room to the bounce house for the kids and beyond, that I didn't feel stressed at all on my wedding day and was able to cherish every special moment! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone! I can't say enough about the Hidden Jewel! All I can say is you need to go and check them out today if you're planning an event!

I had my wedding there on August 6 of this year. When I tell you that Sharon and the rest of the team went above and beyond to make sure that our was a dream come true, that is still a understatement. Sharon did an incredible job on getting involved and making sure she knew exactly what I had envisioned and what my ideas were. If she was not sure how to do something, which was rare, she figured it out and made it happen. They worked with us in finding vendors that were within our budget but also made sure that we didn’t go without. The day of the wedding was so stress free and she was on top of everything. If anything didn’t go as plan, I sure didn’t know about bc she handled it. It was magical and more than I could have ever expected. I am so glad that we made the decision to have our wedding at The Hidden Jewel. Not only are you getting a venue, but you are getting a lifelong friend with Sharon!!

We hosted a nonprofit cornhole tournament at the Hidden Jewel that was a great success. They were accommodating to our needs/desires, the venue was well maintained for event day and their staff was great with cleanup. We are also grateful for their promotion efforts to help us bring more people to our event and raise more funds! Thanks HJ for all your help and support of Wylie Fire Rescue!

The moment that I first visited The Hidden Jewel Venue I feel in love! J.C greeted me at the door and offered a tour even though I popped in unexpectedly. J.C and Sharon went above and beyond in making our wedding better than what could have ever imagined. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they made great efforts to ensure that any and all of my ideas were incorporated throughout the venue! The day of our wedding was smooth sailing and stress free thanks to their great efforts to design a wonderful timeline to follow.I would and will recommend The Hidden Jewel to anyone that I know that is getting married?
