Morris Arboretum & Gardens is a little camera-shy (for now).

Our local photographers haven't added photos from here yet. If you're getting married here, say the word and we'll round them up. Nothing gets a photographer moving like a couple who has already booked the place.

About Morris Arboretum & Gardens

A wedding at Morris Arboretum & Gardens in the Chestnut Hill neighborhood of Philadelphia gives you 92 acres of woodland, meadow and garden, and on a full wedding evening the gardens are yours alone. You arrive at 5 pm with the grounds to yourselves for wedding photos, and a golf cart and driver are included for three hours, so your photographer and videographer can take you from one garden to the next without a long walk in your gown.

There are five places to hold your wedding ceremony. Widener Lawn looks out over the garden valley and sits steps from the reception tent. Baxter Memorial is a circular brick patio above the Meadow Garden, with a sloping lawn where guests sit as if in a small amphitheater. Silktree Grove is deep in the gardens and quieter. For an extra fee you can choose the Rose Garden, with its fountain centerpiece (April to October), or the Pennock Flower Walk, where couples stand before a pedestal fountain (May to September). Outdoors, wind and birdsong are part of the sound, so ask your wedding videographer about microphones for the vows.

Cocktail hour can be on Widener Plaza beside the historic stone carriage house, along the wooded path by the Bronze Bell, or, for a fee, on Out on a Limb, a walkway 50 feet up in the treetops. Your wedding reception follows under a tent outside the carriage house, with a hard floor and bistro lights, for up to 175 guests (155 with a dance floor). Rooms inside the carriage house work for getting ready and as a backup in bad weather. You choose a caterer from the arboretum's list, and parking is included.

Call the Rentals Team to schedule a tour and check your wedding day.

A little about Morris Arboretum & Gardens

The arboretum began in 1887 as Compton, the private estate of a Philadelphia brother and sister who filled the land with trees and gardens. It is now the public garden of the University of Pennsylvania, and it still has the only remaining freestanding Victorian fernery in North America.
