Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Robbins Hunter Museum, Granville

A wedding at the Robbins Hunter Museum takes place at one of Granville's best-known houses, the Avery-Downer House, with its tall Ionic columns facing East Broadway. The Greek Revival front is a grand setting for a wedding party picture, and the museum's gardens and grounds give your photographer and videographer plenty of places for wedding photos. The museum itself says the property offers countless opportunities for memorable photographs.

Indoor and outdoor spaces are available for weddings, rehearsal dinners and private receptions. Inside, the Long Room seats 50 for a dinner, holds 75 for a cocktail reception with limited seating, or 100 standing. For a bigger wedding, tenting on the museum lawn is permitted. If you'd like to get married in the garden or on the lawn, talk with the museum about your wedding ceremony plans. The historic gardens are known for rare daffodils in March and April, so a spring wedding day may bring extra color to your pictures.

Holding a small wedding reception in the Long Room keeps everyone together, which suits a wedding video with close, natural moments rather than a big dance floor. A tent on the lawn changes that, so plan lighting and sound with your videographer if you go that route. The village of Granville is right outside, which makes it easy for guests to find dinner or a place to stay. Holiday events are limited but available.

• Schedule a tour by calling the museum.
• The front porch and entrance are closed for restoration; ask how that affects pictures on your date.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines and rules for the house and gardens.
