Backyard is both (a) tiny and (b) not accessible at all and we've got people we need accessibility for. None of the family in the area has a sufficiently sized yard unfortunately. Parks we've looked at. Some issues with accessibility and somewon't provide tables and chairs which becomes expensive quickly. We're gonna figure it out it'll just take some finagling

I shot a wedding in Oakland decades ago. The couple getting married weren't particularly well-off, as I was the only professional they'd hired. It was at a park on the water.

Oddly enough one of the cheapest places to get married is wastewater treatment plants. They tend to be very park-like but if you catch them on a bad day

There are places at my plant that could work but I wouldn't recommend it.
