With help from the San Francisco Rose Society, the Golden Gate Park Rose Garden receives tender loving care that ensures the quality, beauty and fragrance of award-winning blooms. From hybrid tea roses to striking miniatures, the pale pink, lavender, red, white, and orangey flowers of the garden create stunning surroundings for a wedding in the park. To make the most of this sight, keep in mind that a wave of beauty strikes the Rose Garden from mid-May throughout July as flowers begin to blossom. Another rush of fresh blooms comes in September.
When planning a wedding at the Rose Garden, keep in mind that no amplified sound is allowed. You might want to consider booking a live musician, such as a harpist, to play a melody for your walk down the aisle. All year-round on Sundays, the road is inaccessible by vehicles, which may pose a dilemma for making sure your guests arrive on time. Also, roads leading to the garden are closed on Saturdays from April through September.
