Venues & Event Spaces in Sandy, UT

“Rita and Joi, you ladies are INCREDIBLE.

Our wedding was an AMAZING day ~ We could not have asked for a more magnificent location than Aoki Gardens.

You both take so much pride in your venue and the dedication and love that you put into it absolutely emanated from every corner of the property.

I married the love of my life on Saturday, 5/24/25 after 18 years together. Aoki Gardens was the hidden gem we needed

~ THANK you so much for providing us with the opportunity to get married on your property. ...Thank you for being so easy to communicate with ~ you were stupendous from tip to tail of our experience and we are honored to have been able to share our day with you.

Love, Bryan and Courtney ??????”

“We arrived at the Christmas Expo at opening the first day. It wasn’t too crowded and there was a lot to see! I bought some Christmas presents and some food items. Lots of fun!”

“Great place for training and other events. Attended a vendor sponsored advanced networking training session followed by dinner and a casino night in the same venue.”

“I recently attended an event at the LADU Event Center, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the modern and elegant design of the venue. The layout is incredibly versatile, making it perfect for any type of event, from weddings to corporate functions.

The staff was outstanding—friendly, professional, and attentive to every detail. They went above and beyond to ensure the event ran smoothly and that all guests were comfortable.

One standout feature is the venue’s lighting and sound system, which added a vibrant and dynamic touch to the atmosphere. Parking was convenient, and the location itself is easy to access, making it hassle-free for guests.

Overall, the LADU Event Center is a top-notch choice for hosting any event. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, well-managed venue with exceptional service.”

“Stunning place to have a reception!! It feels fun & lively! Professional service here that listens to your needs too as all weddings we have been to have been unique to the couple.”

“Stayed here for one night with the wife. Booked it on our drive home. We knew we weren't getting in town until close to 9pm and wanted the convenience of an on site restaurant to get something to eat. Got in around 8:50 and checked in. Came back down around 9:05 to go to their restaurant that states on the website it doesn't close until 10pm and we were told it closed at 9. Disappointed in that as it was a factor in our decision for the hotel. Ended up paying nearly $50 to get one meal delivered to the hotel to split. In the room, everything looked great, but I went to go wipe my hands on the hanging towel after washing them and the cloth had tiny hairs all over it like someone shaved and dried their face, but didn't remove the towel. My guess is housekeeping figured it wasn't used, so didn't change it. Otherwise the room was clean and comfortable. AC worked great. Around midnight we were woken up to screaming teenagers one room over and loud banging. My wife called the front desk and she was informed that a family did just arrive and they should be settling down soon, but they would walk by in a bit to make sure they do. The gentleman was really friendly with her and they did settle down. Breakfast was decent, we appreciated the organic tea options the most. Our suggestions to hotel management and staff, please update the site information for the on site restaurant. Ensure towels are always changed even if appeared to be unused and if checking in a family next to other hotel guests at midnight is unavoidable, tell the incoming guests when quiet time started. If possible, I wouldn't place incoming guests at that time directly next to guests that checked in already and are only there for one night. We understand the hotel may have been booked up and this was unavoidable. All in all, we would stay again when in town and felt it was a fair price for the amenities in the hotel.”

“One of the best hotels we have been too. Awesome staff, especially Socorro, she was just an amazing person and had the best breakfast ready to go. Thank you, my family loved everything about this hotel.”

“Went and did some races and had a really good time. Some of the cars took a bit of handling to get used to, but overall a great experience with communicative and supportive staff.

My group did three races, and we only had to wait in-between races for another group to have a turn. That wait time was 5-10 minutes and gave us time to look at track times and hang out.

We did two races with 10 racers and one race with 5 (group split into two ). The track was easier to navigate with the smaller group.”
