13 Best Spots for Cleveland Wedding Photos

We asked real Cleveland Knotties where their favorite local spots are to take engagement and wedding photos. Here are their answers!

"A lot of brides have pictures taken in the Cleveland Metroparks (the Emerald necklace), Lake Metro parks, and Cuyahoga National Valley Parks. Cleveland also has a lot of cool, funky neighborhoods like Ohio City, where I got my engagement pictures taken. Ohio City is home of the Westside market which would make for some fun shots. Another cool neighborhood is Tremont.

For beaches, there is Edgewater Park, Lakewood Park, Huntington Beach, and Mentor Headlands Beach which all have great water views for photos." --jaylii9

"Holden Terrace and the Fine Arts Garden at Cleveland Museum of Art are great places for wedding pictures. I absolutely love the gardens -- they have beautiful fountains, sculptures, and foliage. I also like the gazebo at Coe Lake in Berea. Not only does it have a lovely gazebo, there is also the lake setting near the woods and a bridge that is perfect for wedding photos.

And if it rains, the Old Arcade downtown just because I think it is classic Cleveland. The best part of all of these spots is that they are free!" --Schmoo2011
