Contact Black Creek Pioneer Village in Toronto (under Metro Toronto Conservation
Authority). They have policies (when I worked there in 1996) relating to wedding
photographs especially - they charge for the use of the grounds, different fees
if your reception or ceremony is also at the site or if its photos only. Good
luck. Susan Noakes
