Parsons Gardens

"Small public garden with flowers, lawns & trees, plus an area for picnicking."

Parsons Gardens is a small public garden in Seattle's Queen Anne neighborhood, available for outdoor wedding ceremonies through the Seattle Parks reservation system. The garden features a willow tree, winding paths, a central meadow, and seasonal flowers; couples have used the setting to reduce floral costs while still achieving vibrant photo backdrops. Formerly the family garden of Reginald H. Parsons, the park was given to the City in 1956 by the family's children. Located at 650 W Highland Dr., Seattle, WA 98119, on Queen Anne's south slope. Couples note the garden comfortably held 75 guests with room to spare, praise the willow tree and winding paths for photos, and found booking through the Seattle Parks website straightforward, though one couple encountered an issue with a locked portable toilet.
