Oakes Garden Theatre – Weddings
Opened in 1937, the designers of Oakes Garden Theatre capitalized on the contours of the landscape to create a curved pergola overlooking a central amphitheatre. The shaded lily ponds and formalized gardens provide a tranquil location for your wedding ceremony that overlooks Niagara Falls.
Please note that all outdoor sites are weather permitting. We recommend securing an alternate indoor venue in the event weather is inclement.
