Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Lake Raystown Resort, Entriken

A wedding at Lake Raystown Resort in Entriken has Raystown Lake and the Allegheny Mountains as the scenery, and that's a gift for your wedding photos and wedding video. The resort offers several outdoor ceremony spots under the trees with views of the lake, and the newer Conference Center has two stories of glass and big picture windows looking out at the mountainside, so even indoor pictures carry the landscape with them.

Your wedding ceremony can be held outdoors with the lake behind you, or out on the water: the Proud Mary Showboat offers wedding cruises, along with sunset rehearsal dinner cruises. A cruise gives your videographer moving water and changing light to work with. The resort shares ceremony and rehearsal location sheets on its website so you can compare the spots before you visit.

For the wedding reception there are lakeview ballroom and banquet areas, including the River Birch Ballroom and a flex-space ballroom with two-story windows, which opens toward Treetops Terrace. The Conference Center has about 22,000 square feet of banquet space and holds up to 500 guests. Staff can customize the wedding menu, entertainment and accommodations, and the resort's cabins, cottages, villas and The Lodge let guests stay the night after your wedding day. The lodge lounge has a large fireplace.

• Call the conference and events department to check dates.
• Visit at the hour of your ceremony to see the light over the lake.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines and which outdoor spots you can use.
