Franciscan Gardens is an event space located in the heart of old downtown San Juan Capistrano in the outdoor rose garden area of one of the city's oldest buildings, The Provincial. The space is owned by 24-Carrots, a local catering company and event planner that orchestrates special events. While the property is primarily used for weddings, any special occasion for adults is welcome to inquire. There is a private area of the mansion that is used by the kitchen catering, and a beautiful, detailed room for the bride and her attendants to make final dress adjustments before services. There is another room for the groom, naturally much smaller but still quite adequate. The garden is adjacent to the Franciscan shopping center, the train station and the historic Mission.
