Got married in front of this bench. Will always be one of my favorite places.
One of my favorite spots to read in Central Park. The whispering bench is very cool!!
My wife and I were married here on a beautiful, blue sky day in May.
With the Shakespeare Garden below and the Belvedere Castle above it was magical! My wife hid in the castle until the time. She came down the stairs and presented on the landing...beautiful! Our parents and older guests sat on the Stover Bench while we pledged our love on the edge of the skirt of raised stones. The 40 or so other family members and guests stood around the plaza.
After the ceremony a bagpiper appeared and piped us across the park to the sidewalk on 5th Ave below the Met. As you might guess, anybody who heard the pipes and saw the procession joined us....thanks Manhattan, you always make magic!
Not only does this bench mark a historical man, it is also where my fiancé proposed to me on October 6, 2018. With beautiful scenery, a remarkle crafted bench overlooks some of Central Park. I recommed taking the path to see this area
Amazing whispering bench. Really works. Was hard to find, but amazing when we found it because it was secluded and we could actually hear each other.
