How Seven Ceremony Settings Give Couples More Choice
Every couple has a different vision for their ceremony. Some imagine exchanging vows near the pond. Others picture walking through the black iron doors at Walk in the Park. Some prefer an indoor setting, while others choose the natural surroundings of the woods, courtyard, or pavilion. Each location offers a different setting for your ceremony and photographs.
Willowbrook's Walk in the Park Creates a Distinctive Entrance
One of our newest ceremony locations is Willowbrook's Walk in the Park. The space features hand-done black iron doors that create a memorable ceremony entrance. A bride can walk through these doors as she begins her walk toward the ceremony.
Walk in the Park also provides a photo location on the property. One favorite view shows a bride and groom near the doors with the sunset behind them. Couples visiting Willowbrook can see how this location creates a different entrance experience compared with the pond, courtyard, woods, or indoor ceremony areas.
Your Ceremony Can Take Place in a Setting That Matches Your Vision
Our seven ceremony locations include Willowbrook Hall, Willowbrook Courtyard, Willowbrook Pond, Willowbrook Waterfall, Willowbrook Woods, Willowbrook Pavilion, and Willowbrook's Walk in the Park.
