About Oak Openings Preserve Metropark
A wedding at Oak Openings Preserve Metropark, between Whitehouse and Swanton, takes you into the largest of the Metroparks, about 5,000 acres of oak savanna, wetlands and sand. Your photographer and videographer will find rare scenery for wedding photos and film: widely spaced oaks, prairie, and stands of pine planted in straight rows that the park itself calls an irresistible scene for photographers.
Metroparks offers two wedding spots here. Renting the Mallard Lake Shelter gives you use of the Mallard Lake Wedding Dock for your wedding ceremony, with room for 100 guests and seating for 64 under the 32 by 40 foot shelter. The Evergreen Lake Area, on South Berkey-Southern Road, holds up to 100 and is available daily from 9 a.m. until dark. For a gathering indoors, the Oak Openings Lodge rents its great room, with a gas fireplace, a back patio, 80 chairs and a kitchen, and alcohol is allowed inside and on the rear patio.
There's no electricity at the Mallard Lake Shelter, so ask your videographer to plan battery power and how they'll record your vows by the water. Parking there isn't guaranteed, and the nearest restroom is about 530 feet away, which is worth telling older guests. In spring, wild lupine and prickly-pear cactus bloom on the dunes, so the season you choose shapes your wedding day pictures.
- Call Metroparks reservations to book the shelter, the lake area or the lodge.
- Walk the pines and the dock with your photographer and videographer.
- Ask about photo and video guidelines and parking for your guests.
