Do we need a permit?
July 17, 2009
There are many locations that do not require a permit. Most areas of Central Park for example if you have less than 20 guests.
The thing to remember is that if you have a permit and there is someone in the space you plan on using, you can remove them. If you do not have a permit... you can't. If they have a permit and you don't, they remove you.
Even the simple act of requesting a permit will let you know if there is another event scheduled for your location.
Sometimes this doesn't matter, especially in places where there are equally beautiful spots all over the place. However if it's raining locations with shelter, such as the Ladies Pavilion, start looking like a gas line in the 1970's with brides instead of Lincolns all backed up. Some of my couples have gotten 2 permits - one rain - one shine, just in case.
Just some more food for thought!
Happy Planning!
