Wedding Pictures At The Hilton Columbus Downtown
The Hilton Columbus Downtown has many great photo opportunities! While its true that there are lots of great locations in downtown Columbus, two of the most photographed locations are in this Hilton.
The skybridge that connects to the convention center provides one of our favorite places for wedding photos. The natural light and gorgeous beams provide a beautiful backdrop. Some of the most beautiful photos on the skybridge are those where the couple's reflection can be seen in the windows.
The venue's unique spiral staircase is another photo opportunity you won't want to miss. The artistic symmetry of the stairs gives you a very unique area for pictures. This is also a great spot for a bride to show off her dress.
Finally, the ballrooms themselves are ideal wedding photography locations. Whether you and your guests are enjoying a great meal, or you are having a great time dancing, you are sure to love your photos from your ballroom wedding.

Inside Advice About At The New Albany Links
The location is great- in a safe and upscale part of Central Ohio that is conveniently near Easton. There are lots of options for your guests as far as hotel accommodations and entertainment are concerned.
Since many of the receptions are outside and in the tent, you really need to be aware of the weather. It can get cold at night even in the summer so if you use the heaters for the tent, ask to have them turned on sooner so that its warm when everyone moves into that area.
Speaking of the tent, the sides to the tent work really well to keep out the rain if you have bad weather!
