Water Works Park is a beautiful venue perfect for a rustic and elegant wedding ceremony and reception. Located on Fleur Drive directly across from Gray's Lake, Water Works Park covers nearly 1,500 acres of open wooded areas. The expansive, natural space brings a beauty to the park that is unparalleled to anywhere else and this beauty will be reflected in your celebration. Imagine a ceremony in which you say your “I Dos” under the clear blue sky and among the colorful pink and purple blooms of the crabapple tree grove. Another option is a ceremony with the gorgeous Memorial Fountain in the background. The geyser-like fountain set against the striking blue of the afternoon sky will create an elegant and dramatic ceremony to invite your closest loved ones to. For the reception, the Water Works Park has many open spaces that can be utilized for a night of eating, drinking, and dancing under the stars. Water Works Park is the perfect place for your special day.
