Wedding Photographers & Videographers at The Inn at Ragged Edge, Chambersburg

The Inn at Ragged Edge is built for a wedding where nobody has to leave. The mansion sits on a hillside above a gentle creek outside Chambersburg, with a ceremony lawn, a wraparound porch and a creekside prairie, and inside the African mahogany woodwork glows under tall ceilings next to a dramatic oak staircase. For your photographer and videographer, that means warm wood indoors, open sky and water outside, and a staircase made for a slow walk down in your dress.

Your wedding ceremony can be outside on the lawn or by the creek, and your wedding reception and cocktail hour move into the mahogany-paneled rooms. If it rains, everything comes indoors and stays under one roof. There is a private bridal suite for getting ready, so morning wedding photos happen in the same house as the vows. The inn's historic Steinway piano in the parlor is available for cocktail hour or parlor music, a lovely sound for your wedding video. Guests can also explore the grounds and the on-site nature trail during your wedding day.

Up to 125 guests fit here, and most couples invite between 50 and 85. Packages run from an elopement for up to 25 guests to a full weekend with the entire inn reserved from Friday through Sunday morning, and each includes setup, on-site coordination and overnight rooms. The nine guest rooms each have a private bath, and overnight guests get a full breakfast the next morning. You choose your own photographer, florist and DJ, use an approved outside caterer, and may bring your own alcohol with licensed bartenders. Parking is on site.

• Download the brochure from the inn's website and ask about your date.
• Walk the lawn, porch and creek with your photographer at the time of day you plan to say your vows.
• Ask about the guidelines your vendors need to follow, including photo and video.

A little about The Inn at Ragged Edge

Completed in 1901 as a summer retreat for a railroad executive's family, the mansion grew with a 1913 addition into the largest home in Franklin County. It reopened as a bed and breakfast in 2010 and later became a setting for intimate weddings.
