01 The rules

Permit fact card

Permit
Required: Special Activity Agreement — required for all organized groups and events, including photographers (approved by the park manager before your visit)
Other fees
Overlook rental, paid by credit card at the time of reservation. Fountain Valley Overlook: three hours for $150 Monday through Friday or $250 Saturday and Sunday. Lyons Overlook: three hours for $225 Monday through Friday or $400 Saturday and Sunday.
Entrance & parking
The park lists a daily vehicle pass of $10-$15 and an individual daily pass of $4. The page does not say how these apply to wedding guests.
Lead time
The park asks you to submit the Special Activity Agreement at least 90 days ahead of the date of your event, by email.
Group size
Up to 25 guests at each overlook
Caps & rules
On weekends a reservation does not guarantee entry into the park, because the park frequently reaches parking capacity, so guests should arrive early. For general visiting groups of 10 or more, the park says weekends from May through October will not be approved.
Photographer
All commercial photography must have a permit with the park before arriving, applied for with the Special Activity Agreement at least 90 days ahead of the first session.
