Wedding Photographers & Videographers at The Barn at Pineridge, Lisbon

A wedding at The Barn at Pineridge near Lisbon feels like a weekend at camp, in the best way. The 45-acre property still has its cabins, open fields, a pond and Beaver Creek, so your photographer and videographer have water, woods and meadows for wedding photos and film without leaving the grounds.

You can hold everything here, from the wedding ceremony to the last dance. Some couples take a short walk down to the creek, some get married across the pond, and some keep it all at the barn. Picture your guests following a path through the property to find their seats by the water, then strolling back for cocktails on the patio. By the creek, running water and a breeze can compete with your vows, so ask your wedding videographer about microphones.

Inside, the barn seats about 200 for the wedding reception, and when the guest list runs bigger there's room outside for tents. The cement patio seats about 100 and a separate cocktail patio about 60. For a rehearsal dinner or a smaller gathering, The Lodge holds about 75. Bring the caterer you love, since the venue doesn't cook but welcomes outside caterers, and caterers new to the property meet with the venue at least two months before the date. A venue coordinator is on hand, but the venue strongly suggests hiring a planner. Paths are gravel and grass, so tell guests wedges work better than heels on your wedding day.

• Contact the venue through its website to check dates.
• Choose your ceremony spot early, and walk it with your photographer.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines, and point guests to hotels in Lisbon and East Liverpool.
