bayard cutting arboretum question

Anyone that has taken their wed. pics or will there, were there other brides there while you were taking pics, or do you anticipate there will be?? This is my dilemna because I love the place, but in July I'm afraid I'll see other brides there!

I went there with my friend for her wedding. I'm not sure where we took the pictures exactly but the parking lot had a number of limos in it and we saw one bride who was taking her pics right off of the parking lot. It wasn't a big deal though.

***Make sure you or your photographer gets the necessary permits before you go there. They almost didn't let us in and the only reason we did get in was b/c our limo driver and 2 GM's were cops and the security guard was a retired cop. My friend was hysterical so save yourself the headache!
