The answer

It is forbidden to go to a wedding venue if it contains any evil, unless a legitimate benefit, such as enjoining good and forbidding evil, results from it.

Listening to songs is absolutely forbidden, unless it is only by women, with good words that do not contradict Islamic law, and does not include any musical instruments except the drum.

As for photography, contemporary scholars have differed on it. It is safer to avoid it except out of necessity, especially for women, because their picture might fall into the hands of a man and become a cause of temptation.
