Nestled on the scenic Niagara Escarpment, the Ball's Falls Historical Church accommodates up to 110 guests. The interior of this restored chapel features warm wood-tones: both rustic and elegant. The chapel is heated to provide year-round access and the site has ample parking for guests. Rehearsals can be arranged and reception facilities are also available. With convenient highway access, this area is the perfect storybook setting for your special day... and a photographer's dream.
Outdoor Wedding Photography
Wedding Photos can be taken at Ball's Falls on the south (main entrance) side of the park only. The north section and area around the heritage buildings is reserved for on-site weddings that have booked the facilities. The NPCA does not book wedding photography. It is available on a first-come-first served basis, and is not allowed during NPCA special events. Regular Conservation Area admission fees apply.
