It can potentially be used for wedding ceremonies with a few notes. One car is allowed for set-up but must be coordinated with the park manager. The ceremony site must be cleaned up before sunset. Note there is no access to electricity at this location. As mentioned before this location is a significant walk from the parking lot.
