Do you want to plan an outdoor marriage proposal that’s romantic, colorful and peaceful? Whether you’re a nature enthusiast or simply want an intimate place to express your feelings, the following gardens will set the scene for the rest of your lives!

1. Brooklyn Botanic Garden: New York

With 52 lush acres, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden is the epitome of urban green space. The garden includes over 42 species of cherry trees as well as a Japanese garden. If you love the city but also love nature, culture, and architecture, this might be the perfect getaway for popping the question.

The Heart Bandits can help you take advantage of the space and set up a romantic picnic area that’s perfect for celebrating your engagement!  

2. San Francisco Botanical Garden: California

Want to explore over 8,000 species of plants as you walk arm and arm with the person you want to spend the rest of your life with? San Francisco Botanical Garden has a gorgeous magnolia collection, tropical palm trees, and intimate wooded areas that can’t get any more romantic. We’ll help you find your favorite spot in the garden to pop the question!

3. Longwood Gardens: Pennsylvania

Longwood Gardens boasts over 1,000 acres, making it one of the more sprawling gardens in the United States. If you’re interested in proposing over the holidays, Longwood Gardens is known for its beautiful seasonal displays. The Heart Bandits can help you set up a breathtaking proposal spot that matches the beauty of the plants and flowers around you.

4. Fairchild Tropical Garden: Florida

If you love the beach and want to be surrounded by colorful blossoms during your proposal, check out the Fairchild Tropical Garden. Known for its orchids and cultural festivals, your proposal can be elegant and romantic or lively and entertaining. We’ll help you manage the details, so you can propose in a way that matches your unique bond.

5. Balboa Park: California

When Balboa Park was developed in 1902, it was only the second park of its kind in the United States–New York’s Central Park being the first. If you’d like to propose in a place that’s full of history and animals (after all, the San Diego Zoo is also located in the park), Balboa Park gives you a variety of options.

Can’t decide which area of the park is best? The Heart Bandits can help you find the most intimate spot and set up a romantic area to propose.

6. Magnolia Plantation and Gardens: South Carolina

Located in the vibrant city of Charleston, this garden is full of romance, color, history, and emotion. The calming environment makes it an ideal spot to express your love– it even has a Nature Train that takes you through various landscapes. If you’re in love with a southern belle, these gardens are a refreshing place to propose in the heart of South Carolina.

If you’ve chosen a garden and are ready to plan your proposal, The Heart Bandits has the expertise and connections to create a magical proposal you’ll remember for the rest of your lives.
