The Biltmore Gardens are a perfect place for a romantic proposal. During any season, you can find something blooming; whether that be in the Shrub Garden, Walled Garden, Rose Garden, Conservatory, Spring Garden, or Azaleas Garden, there’s something for everyone. The romance of the gardens and their strategic layout was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, the great landscape architect who designed New York City’s, Central Park. Your photographer will go over with you the different gardens and what will be blooming, full foliage, or fall colors during the dates you plan to propose.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Shrub Garden is found a short walk downhill from the Biltmore House. Here you will find paved paths through the different unique shrubs and trees. The Shrub Garden makes for a beautiful backdrop to your proposal; depending on the time of year, you can still get the Biltmore House in the background of your photos. In early April, you will find that the shrubs and trees in this area start flowering with different white, pink, purple, and yellow shades. A red brick tunnel is just wide enough for a walking path in the Shrub Garden that makes for great engagement shots.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We recommend you propose during an off time for tourists like the early morning, late afternoon, or during the week to avoid getting other guests in the background photos since this is a very populated area.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
