Places to take pictures in Queens or Nassau

FH and I are looking for a place to take pictures on wedding day that's in Nassau or Queens. We looked at Old Westbury Gardens; however, we can only take pictures outside mansion. I wanted indoors and out. Also, our bridal party is very large so we wouldn't be able to have our parents with us if we wanted pics with them too. Our church ceremony is in Ozone Park and our reception is in New Hyde Park. Could anyone suggest some good places and whether you need a permit or not? TIA!!

Ok! I'm going to google pics now. Did they inform you about a site fee? Is it like Old Westbury Gardens where only a certain number of people are allowed on the grounds from your wedding party?

They didnt mention the amount of people, just cars. I think anything over 4 cars is 8 each.

That was my main prob with OWG.. i have almost 30 ppl! haha

The site fee is $100- if you want access to the insides of the greenhouses it is $300 total.

Jsquared-
The site fee for $100 are only for outdoor pictures? Can you take pictures inside the building? I am just considered because sunset will be around 4:30pm in November next year – so if its outdoors- I would like to push over ceremony to 2:30pm

Im in love with this place – My findings:

I took my epics at Planting fields and it is gorgeous there! They say there is a $100 site fee, but no one bothered us while we there there so we never had to pay it- just had to pay for parking. It might be a little different coming in with limos and a bridal party since you will obviously stand out more than we did. It's definitely worth it though!
