Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Contres-Greer Event Center, Northern Cambria

A wedding at Contres-Greer Event Center in Northern Cambria keeps your whole day in one place: the venue invites couples to host the ceremony and the reception under one roof. The big hall has a stone fireplace, a built-in stage and new flooring, and that fireplace is a natural spot for wedding photos of the two of you and your families. Your photographer and videographer won't have to chase you across town.

Ask the staff where the wedding ceremony is set up and how the room changes over for dinner, since the website doesn't say whether the ceremony space is indoors or out. Once the reception starts, the built-in stage gives your band or DJ a proper home and gives your videographer a clear view of the toasts and the first dance. The spacious dance floor leaves room for a crowd.

Your wedding reception can be large here, with room for up to 500 guests. Contres-Greer calls itself an all-inclusive venue with its own staff, and it offers all-inclusive wedding packages, so ask what each one covers. There's full bar service with professional bartenders at a new bar area, serving signature cocktails and classic drinks. Ask about food, parking and a quiet room for getting ready when you tour, since those aren't described online. Plan your timeline with the staff so there's a few minutes on your wedding day for pictures by the fireplace before guests fill the room.

• Call to check your date and ask what the all-inclusive packages include.
• Walk the hall with your photographer and videographer.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines and where the ceremony is held.
