The Queen Wilhelmina Garden, located beneath the majestic Dutch (North) windmill at the west end of Golden Gate Park, has been entertaining visitors since the 1900s. The garden is named after Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, who is famous for reigning longer than any previous Dutch monarch. The Dutch Bulb Growers' Association donates flower bulbs every year. The garden's tulips are a major attraction for tourists and wedding groups alike, and are best seen between March 15 and April 15. The lack of the option of amplified music is a requirement for securing a wedding date at the Queen Wilhelmina Garden. This means you will have to come up with different ways to include music in your ceremony or reception, like as hiring live musicians or using light recorded sound - like a 'boom box.' QUEEN WILHELMINA GARDEN WEDDING CEREMONY PACKAGES Golden Gate Park is a lovely and romantic setting for a wedding celebration. We have teamed up with San Francisco Weddings, an all-inclusive wedding planning company, to make your big day at Golden Gate Park a memorable one.
