Schedule & Amenities

Weddings may be scheduled at the Bridgeview Gazebo from early May through October. The gazebo can be booked for a wedding from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. All wedding reservations include a 2-hour time block for decorating, ceremony, pictures, and clean-up. Rehearsals can also be scheduled the day before.

Up to 50 white wedding chairs are provided for the ceremony. Additional chairs (up to 100) are also available for $2.00 each. A Mackinac State Historic Parks representative will be available throughout the ceremony. In the case of inclement weather, Church of Ste.

Guidelines

Mackinac State Historic Parks has no resident or affiliated clergyman. Couples married at any Mackinac State Historic Parks wedding venue must select a clergyman or public official to perform the ceremony.
If floral arrangements or musicians are part of your wedding ceremony, they may arrive no earlier than 45 minutes prior to ceremony time.
All decorations must not in any way be affixed to, or otherwise endanger, museum buildings or collections. No tape and tacks of any type may be used to install decorations. Candles are prohibited within any building, except for a (1) unity candle.
No fake, fabric or paper flower petals may be tossed outside. Only real flower petals will be permitted. No rice, birdseed or similar material may be scattered inside buildings or outside.
It is the responsibility of the wedding party to designate an individual to remove any decorations or other items immediately following the ceremony. Otherwise, the items will be removed and discarded by park staff one hour after. We are unable to store any items before or after the scheduled date.
Electricity is available in the Bridgeview Gazebo.
Parking for your wedding guests is available at the Visitor’s Center located under the south end of the Mackinac Bridge, or at Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse. The Gazebo is located between the two locations. There is no staging area or dressing room at the Bridgeview Gazebo. The nearest restroom is in Michilimackinac State Park.
