Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Green Gables Restaurant & Huddleson Court, Jennerstown

A wedding at Green Gables in Jennerstown has the feel of a Laurel Highlands country inn. The lawn runs down to a stream, and three terraces look over the grounds and a natural waterfall, so your photographer and videographer have moving water and green hills for your wedding photos. The restaurant calls the grounds a fine site for a wedding ceremony, and the reception can stay right here.

After the vows, step onto the patio off the Tuscany Room, which overlooks the stream at the edge of the lawn. On a nice evening the party can spill out there, depending on the weather. The sound of the waterfall and the stream is lovely on a wedding video, though your videographer will want a microphone close to you during the vows outdoors.

Inside, five indoor areas can be used together or apart, for parties from 2 to 400. Your wedding reception will most likely land in the Tuscany Room, the largest space, with a 27 by 34 foot hardwood dance floor, a bar and a fireplace for cool evenings. It was built with oak trunks from witness trees on a family farmstead, plus beams and stones from two regional barns. Fresh flower arrangements, many grown on the grounds, along with linens and candles come with weddings. Parking is free, and spaces out front can be reserved for the bridal party. From May through October, Saturday events either end by 4 PM or start at 5 PM or later. Rooms, suites and cottages at Huddleson Court on the property let guests stay over after your wedding day.

• Request the wedding folder and check your Saturday timing.
• Walk the lawn, patio and terraces with your photographer.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines and a rain plan.

A little about Green Gables Restaurant & Huddleson Court

Green Gables began in 1927 as a roadside sandwich stand. In 1939 a gristmill was moved log by log to the site and became the Mountain Playhouse theater next door, and the restaurant was rebuilt after a fire in 1962.
