My husband and I got married last year at the Clerk of Courts. I have been wanting a "real" ceremony since then, with both my parents and his present this time. The problem is we can't afford to spend a lot of money on a location, and I have a lot of do-it-yourself ideas for the ceremony decorations. My backyard is too small, and I was hoping to set up my "altar" in a public park by a lake, or something like that, without having to spend too much money out of pocket for the location. Do I need need a special permit for that? How about at a beach? Can I just set up my stuff, have the ceremony and leave?... or do I need a permit for that too?

You probably do need a permit. To be sure you could contact the city hall of the town you plan to have your ceremony and ask. Best wishes.

Probably. You need a permit to utilize a public space for a more or less private event in most places so check it out first. If you do need one and try to set up with out it you could be fined and have the entire event stopped and forced to move out and you would not want the cops showing up in the middle of your wedding.
