About Lackawanna State Park

Lackawanna State Park, about ten miles north of Scranton in North Abington Township, wraps 1,445 acres of woods around Lackawanna Lake. For a wedding, that lake is the reason to come. Wedding photos and video here can have open water, a wooded shoreline and wide sky behind you, and every season brings a different look, from summer green to fall color on the hills around the lake.

Pennsylvania state parks allow wedding ceremonies, but every wedding needs approval first from the park office, so call the office here before you settle on a spot. Picnic areas surround the lake, and the park has an amphitheater. Ask which areas can host a ceremony, whether a pavilion or other facility can be reserved, and what fees apply. A small administrative fee is common, and facility rentals cost extra.

A park wedding is usually a ceremony and pictures, with the reception at a hall or restaurant nearby. If you use a professional photographer or caterer, the state asks you to discuss it with the park office. Guests are asked not to throw any wedding toss, and releasing doves or butterflies is discouraged. Bubbles or quiet noise makers need written permission. For your videographer, an outdoor ceremony means wind and open air, so a small microphone on the officiant helps the vows come through clearly on your wedding film. Plan where guests will park and walk on your wedding day, too.

Call the park office at 570-945-3239 early to get your wedding approved.
Visit at your ceremony hour with your photographer to see the light on the lake.
Ask about photo and video guidelines, permits and a rain plan.

A little about Lackawanna State Park

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania bought the land in 1968, built Lackawanna Lake by damming South Branch Tunkhannock Creek and Kennedy Creek, and opened the park in 1972. The 198-acre lake is the center of the park.
