This worked out like a charm!! I parked in the adjacent parking lot, and my fiance and I walked towards the water tower since she said she's never been to it. We were supposed to meet some friends for dinner, and I said it would be an easy short cut to go through there. Anyway, we stopped in the middle, with the water falling all around us, and started with a kiss. I told her to look up at the water falling, and at that moment, I dropped to one knee. Once she looked down at me proposing, she abolutely flipped! Be prepared for waterworks, and not just from the water wall!!! Extrememly romantic setting! Best of luck to anyone else who proposes there!

Pros: great setting

Cons: you'll get some drizzle on you

my husband and I went on our first "date" on a picnic at the Water Wall. Almost 3 years to the day we were married standing under the center arch in front of the wall. It was a romantic and beautiful spot for a wedding and our pictures were beautiful. Only negative part is that you need a permit to get married there and they charge $250.00 for it. I guess nothing is free these days and I woould pay it again for the use of such a beautiful special memory. We still go there often for picnics and it's always fun and if you get hot just walk up to the wall to cool off!

Pros: Relaxing, Free Parking Garage, Safe

Cons: Security Guards

The waterwall is beautiful, I had only driven past it until my husband took me there on a date. It is calming and relaxing. I think it would be a great place to picnic someday.

The Williams Tower and Water Wall Is the best place to go for a good family fun day. Or to go with that special someone. The best time is to go at night when the lights accent the water and make it sparkle. The night time make it very memorable.

Pros: Free, Fun, Nice Scenery

Cons: Parking, Gets Crowded, Construction

The Williams Tower and Water Wall are by far the most romantic place in the city of Houston to visit. Go there in the day time and walk into what I like to call the Cathedral and look up at the sky. There is a migic that exists there. Guys, if you want to make a girl fall in love with you, take her there. Couples picnic on warm afternoons and take carriage rides at dusk. Definitely a must see when you come to Houston.

Pros: Inexpensive, Easily accessible, No waiting

Cons: no seating, small park area
