The Great Smoky Mountains area of East Tennessee is considered to be one of the most desirable wedding destinations in the whole of the U. S.
Rosewood Gardens is offering you the opportunity to hold your wedding in the beautiful and intimate setting of an "English Garden". As a future bride you may well dream of having an outdoor wedding. Nature and its surroundings, the pure fresh air, the room and the freedom it inspires, fills you with romantic notions of how wonderful your wedding day could be. At Rosewood we strive to make that dream a reality.

Outdoor weddings are very popular with couples, as are destination
weddings. Many wedding facilities in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and
other areas in the Smokies, offer "garden settings" but nowhere
else, other than here at Rosewood, will you find the lushness and
exuberance that is truly evocative of an English Garden. Most of
our garden beds and borders are informal in style, one or two areas
are more traditional and formal in design, while others have the
"mix and mingle" associated with true English style cottage
gardens.
THE GARDENS AT ROSEWOOD ARE TRULY UNIQUE !

Full of roses and many other flowers, in all the
beautiful wine shades, from white to deepest burgundy,
the "Wine & Roses Garden" evokes the very idea of
romance. The white wedding arbor, clad in clematis,
roses and other flowering vines, is a perfect place for
your minister to hold the ceremony, while the large
weeping willow forms an atmospheric backdrop.
This garden can accommodate seating for up to 100
guests.
YOUR CEREMONY IN THE WINE & ROSES GARDEN
|
In addition to the Wine & Roses Garden, ceremonies for very small weddings, or couple only weddings, can take place in other
areas of the garden. (Please note: Other than the Wine & Roses Garden, no seating is permitted in most other areas of the
garden, therefore it will be standing only. We will permit a few seats for guests who may have difficulty standing for long
periods)

A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING DESERVES A BEAUTIFUL SETTING

Photographs will be enhanced by the beauty of all the
varied themed gardens. Our 17 acre setting is so
tranquil that the nearby busy tourist areas often seem
a world away.
You will never feel rushed at the Gardens as we allow
a very generous amount of time for your ceremony and
photographs. You also have exclusive use of all the
cultivated areas of the Garden for you and your guests
to enjoy during the duration of your wedding.

the garden may look like at the time of your wedding.

felt so comfortable. Thank you ". Leslea and Marty
Commencing Spring 2010 there will be 90ft of red paved pathway for
the guest entrance into the Wine & Roses Garden. This should be
beneficial to guests who are handicapped. The new pathway may also
serve as an alternative entrance for the bride if she prefers it.
