The setting
“They have a glasshouse which is a small botanical garden.”
“We got there late so didn't have time to actually walk any trails or check out the visitor center and greenhouse, but definitely will need to come back to do so.”
“It is a relaxing place to walk around, sit on a bench surrounded by flowers in the garden or by a pond looking at water flowers that are extremely beautiful.”
“The gardens have plants for sale and once a month offers native plant sales with local master gardeners on hand to help with plant selection.”

From the reviews
It's exciting to notice the master gardeners busily planning for the spring, young couple checking out wedding photo shoots, families talking group photos, dog owners exchanging pleasantries, and many many people enjoying this chilli sunny day.
Getting married at Green Spring Gardens Horticultural Center
Green Spring Gardens Horticultural Center comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
