Garden Weddings are my favorite to photograph. Gardens are so beautiful & lush and create the most romantic fairytale-esque vibe. Omaha has some beautiful options. These gardens are my top faves!
Memorial Park Rose Garden
Robert H Storz Dr, Omaha, NE 68132 (Near 57th & Underwood)
If you absolutely adore a punch of vibrant color, the Memorial Park Garden is the QUEEN of garden wedding venues! (The blooms here are unreal!) Plus, it looks absolutely beautiful from June all the way through October. This garden is also in the middle of Omaha so it's in a great location to make it an easy drive to most wedding reception venues, too.
Gerald R. Ford Birthsite & Gardens
3202 Woolworth Ave, Omaha, NE 68105
The Gerald Ford Garden has the most beautiful arbor out of all the Omaha Gardens. This location has such a beautiful and romantic vibe and lots of beautiful spots for wedding photos.
Bohemian Gardens
1424 S 13th St., Omaha, NE 68108 (In Little Bohemia Area)
The Bohemian Gardens is probably my favorite place to photograph a wedding! It is gated so you have an ultra-private area for your ceremony where you won't have any rogue people moseying about. The greenery here is to die for, ESPECIALLY in the fall (the colors!!!). They have a couple of different buildings here where you can get ready for the wedding and also stay the night which is so nice! That way you can focus on celebrating your marriage and not worry about the logistics of everything.
Lauritzen Gardens
100 Bancroft St., Omaha, NE 68108
Lauritzen has the most extensive gardens, which are absolutely gorgeous. There is a lot of variety so you can get a lot of different looks for photos. They also have little golf carts/trams that you can use on your wedding day, which is super convenient for the wedding party & guests. I photograph quite a lot of sessions here and everytime I go something new is blooming!
Lucile's
510 S. 10th St., Omaha, NE 68102 (Old Market)
I love this intimate location! It is absolutely beautiful inside and out. The garden in particular is absolutely beautiful for getting married & makes it really convenient for wedding photos. The garden is really fun to hang out in post-wedding as well for cocktails with your friends and family! Just GORGEOUSSS, darling!
Villa Aletta
4714 N. 120th St., Omaha, NE 68164
If you're looking for a venue that's a little more in West Omaha, this is a great spot. The back arbor & nature backdrop at Villa Aletta is a hidden little gem! This location is great because it's ultra-private and their getting ready suites are nice and big!
Elmwood Park Grotto
550 Elmwood Park Dr., Omaha, NE 68106
The Elmwood Park location is really beautiful because it still gets quite a bit of shade in the daytime which is ideal for ceremony photos. It's a really pretty backdrop in a convenient location in Midtown Omaha for weddings.
Joslyn Castle
3902 Davenport St., Omaha, NE 68131
The Joslyn Castle has such pretty grounds and a gorgeous interior, as well! If you want a fairytale look, this is probably the perfect venue for you!
