Wedding Photographers & Videographers at The Marcum Hotel and Conference Center, Oxford

A wedding at The Marcum Hotel and Conference Center gives you a quiet corner of Miami University's Oxford campus, with your reception, your guests' rooms and some of the best portrait spots on campus in one place. The Conrad Formal Gardens sit right beside it, and Miami calls them one of the most photographed places on campus, so your wedding photos and video can begin a few steps from the door.

Inside, The Marcum has about 10,000 square feet of flexible event space that can be set up for a wedding reception, a bridal shower or a rehearsal dinner. Couples usually hold the wedding ceremony at one of Miami's chapels, Sesquicentennial Chapel in the center of campus or Kumler Chapel on Western Campus, and then come here to celebrate. A customizable room lets you place the dance floor and head table where your photographer and videographer will have the light and space they need for the toasts and first dance.

Out-of-town guests will like the 55 guest rooms on site, so family can stay close on your wedding day, and parking is free for hotel guests. Catering comes through Miami's Event Services team, and an event planner can help carry the day from the chapel to the reception. Miami's nature trails start nearby, if you want a quieter walk for pictures.

• Book guest rooms early, especially on Miami event weekends.
• Walk from the hotel to the Formal Gardens with your photographer to plan portraits.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines in the event rooms and gardens.
