Cop Cot

Weddings at Cop Cot

A charming rustic gazebo surrounded by beautiful gardens and climbing vines.

Cop Cot, meaning "little cottage on the crest of a hill" in Scottish, is one of Central Park's largest and most enchanting rustic structures. This wooden gazebo, covered in wisteria vines, offers a naturally beautiful setting for wedding ceremonies with a touch of whimsy.

Situated on a hill near the south end of the park, the octagonal structure provides stunning views and a sense of elevation above the surrounding landscape. The natural wood construction and climbing vines create a romantic, garden-like atmosphere that requires minimal additional decoration.

The surrounding area features beautiful plantings and provides ample space for guests, while the elevated position offers unique photography opportunities with the park and city skyline as backdrops.
