The pavilion day use area is quite sizeable and we'll appointed. As long as the car entry is paid for I believe you're fine. The Rangers are very helpful.
Call their office to make sure. Our friends got married there, I bet they can point you out to the closest alternative.
If you are just using the picnic area, you will have to purchase a Day Use ticket (per vehicle). Not sure if there are limits on attendees
