for the brides taking pics at Old Westbury Gardens

They ask you to pick 3 locations in the park that you want to use for pics......does anyone one know which ones are the nices locations.....they really don't have any pics of the park online.....and I don't know what to put down on their form

We went to OWG to check out the grounds before bookling. There's no fee if you tell them that you're looking for wedding pictures .... they give you a map, and you can walk around.

We are taking pictures in the Walled Garden (which has the koi pond and wishing well in it) the Rose Garden (which a round shaped garden of roses with lattice over the pathways in) and the South Terrace which is the back area of the house, you can also take pics at the Boxwood Garden-Ill see if I can find pics from other brides of the areas for you

I would have to agree.. These are great locations.
i'm so sad that I can't chose the rose garden for my pics b/c my wedding is in Sept & the rose garden will be barren :(

If you are taking pics at OWG still go by the rose garden, they usually have something planted there, they may not be as pretty as the roses when they are blooming but it will still be pretty!
