WEDDINGS AT CABRILLO NATIONAL MONUMENT

To help you determine if Cabrillo National Monument is the best choice for your wedding location, we offer the following guidelines:

• Weddings during the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. are permitted at the Wedding Bluff Site only.

• Weddings may not start later than 3:30 pm. The park closes at 5:00 pm.

• Maximum number of 100 people. The site cannot accommodate more than this.

• Site is reserved in one hour blocks for wedding.

• Due to the natural terrain of the area, set-ups such as chairs, carpet runners, arches, trellises, podiums, organs/ pianos, loud music instruments or related items are not allowed. Flowers are permitted as long as they arrive and depart with the wedding party.

• No rice, birdseed, balloons, flower petals, or other decorations may be thrown, left or set up.

• Non-amplified low sound music from flutes, harps, guitars, etc. is permitted. Amplified music or public address systems are not allowed.

• There may be a guest who must sit down during the ceremony; someone may bring a chair for them and carry it out when leaving. Chairs may not be set up in advance of the ceremony.

• No live animals, insects, birds or others may be released.

• All vehicles must park in the main parking area, not by the Wedding Bluff site. Disabled persons may be driven to the lighthouse area and the cars returned to the main parking area.
