Wedding Photography at Lily Lake Pavilion 

From a photographer’s perspective, Lily Lake Pavilion is a dream. The light reflecting off the water during golden hour, the towering trees just steps away and the charming wooden deck all make for incredible wedding portraits. I’ve captured first looks by the lake, family photos on the dock and sunset portraits in Rockwood Park, all within walking distance of the Pavilion.

The venue is so close to both natural landscapes and the city, and it also gives couples a chance to create a wedding gallery that feels diverse and dynamic, without needing to travel between locations.

Real Wedding Inspiration at Lily Lake Pavilion 

One of my favorite weddings at Lily Lake Pavilion featured an outdoor ceremony right by the water, followed by a cocktail hour on the deck and a cozy reception indoors. The couple included lots of personal touches, Local flowers, handmade signage and a relaxed timeline that allowed us to explore the nearby trails for some quiet, candid moments.
