From the reviews
We couldn’t be happier with choosing Woodlands Garden for our wedding party photos. Their staff was incredibly kind, thoughtful and attentive to all of our logistics and requests.
I had the opportunity to photograph a couple's wedding portraits in the Spring of 2025 and the grounds were amazing! My couple and I had a great experience with many opportunities to take photos throughout the space. I'll be sure to recommend this space for future photography clients!
Came here looking for a nice place to photograph a newly married couple and things turned out wonderfully
Getting married at Woodlands Garden
Woodlands Garden 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.
