Leonard
J. Buck Garden is accepting reservations
for wedding photography sessions. This naturalistic public garden, cradled
in the historic Moggy Hollow, offers numerous wedding photo sites in
its beautiful garden setting of planted rock outcroppings, woodland,
stream, and meadow. The footbridge sites overlooking the serine Moggy
Brook are perfect settings for bride and groom, and are colorful from
spring through fall.
A new dimension to the garden is the addition of a rustic gazebo fashioned of red cedar and Osage orange used in their natural contours. This picturesque structure is tucked into a mixed border planting of perennials, grasses and shrubs, providing lovely wedding picture opportunities.
