  You want to ask about capacity, prefered or required vendors, and amount of downpayment/payment schedule for sure.  I haven't been to weddings at any of those locations, but I know that Fox Hills is often used for conventions.  I believe Heidel House hosts several conventions as well.

  Here are some questions I would ask the ceremony site:   What is the ceremony site fee? What is the payment policy? What is the cancellation policy? What are the min/max number of guests allowed? How much time is allotted for your ceremony? What restrictions are there with regards to religion? Is an officiant available?  If so, at what cost? Are outside officiants allowed? If so, are there religious restrictions? What music restrictions are there, if any? What photography restrictions are there, if any? What videography restrictions are there, if any? Are there any restrictions for petal-tossing/bubble blowing? Are you allowed to use candles are decorations? What floral decorations are allowed? Is there handicap accessibility and parking? How many parking spaces are available for guests? What rental items are necessary (chairs, podium, archway, etc.)?
