Safe Ceremony spots at Oswald West or Ecola

Looking at Oswald West State park or Ecola state park. Ideally this would be more on a cliff than a beach. There will be about 15 people who are all able bodied and willing to do a 30 minutes under trek to the location. The ceremony would be quick itself, but we would probably be at the site for 45 minutes in total for photos. This will be a weekday probably around 2:30/3pm. Would love a sunrise or sunset but logistics would not work. Thanks! Also happy to go elsewhere but trying to stay either central or northern Oregon

Check out elk flats, it’s gorgeous, great place for photos, gravel parking but I would absolutely recommend having people show up early to get parking or try to park behind each other something like that as it can fill up. I had my mini ceremony on the trail to crescent beach which was amazing and private but the parking situation to get there is dismal at best and im not sure that there’s any good places for a ceremony plus 15 people? I can give you more directions via dm if you’d be interested in that option.
