Dorthy B. Oven Park is one of Tallahassee Parks and Recreation's gems that helped get Tallahassee Parks voted the best in America. I've been to several functions here: weddings, receptions, fundraisers, and even a small seminar. This is a choice location because of the beautiful garden, the large oak trees that hang a canopy of spanish moss, and the old manor where indoor meetings are held and receptions can be held. The park itself is very small, but has enough open spaces to host a large outdoor brunch or a medium sized garden wedding. Parking is a concern, but the nearby churches are usually willing to work with you depending on the date and size of the event. The rental prices seem very reasonable, making it a great option for any event on a budget.
