I am in the very, very early stages of wedding planning, and I’m looking for some basic suggestions about wedding locations in/around either Erie or Meadville. We’ve pretty much already decided we don’t want a church wedding, and probably not an outdoor one. Therefore, we need some other kind of venue. I’d like for the ceremony and the reception to be in seperate “locations” but not neccesarily in completely different venues. Basically, I need suggestions of places like golf/yacht clubs, halls, social clubs, etc. I’m leaning more towards Erie than Meadville because I would love to be somewhere very near the lake (but again, not an outdoor wedding) My cousin had her wedding at a yacht club in Maryland that had huge windows that overlooked the Chesapeake Bay, and it was beautiful!! Any thoughts….
The Warner Theatre! It is beautiful. I worked there a few years ago and yes, they do let people have weddings there. I think you rent it for about $500. But the costs may have changed. Call the Civic Center AKA Erie County Convention Center Box Office for details and if you haven’t been in the Warner Theater, go take a look. If I didn’t have a Church Wedding, that would be my choice.
The employees there are great to work with.

I live just outside of Erie (in North East), and I am also looking for a place to get married. If you can afford it, the Bayfront Convention Center wouldn’t be a bad idea, especially with its new facilities so close to the water. Good luck!!!
