Karrikin Spirits Company is a Cincinnati based craft distillery and event space in Fairfax, committed to exploring our love of flavors with the community. By definition, karrikins are the elements found in the smoke from a forest fire that trigger the regeneration of that forest. In the centuries since Whiskey Hollow was settled, those karrikins have been at work to bring distilling back to this very location on Cincinnati’s east side. In Spring of 2017, seven founding members with experience in brewing & distilling, woodworking, design, and more came together to purchase a building formerly occupied by Swallen’s and later, DnD Metal to start a journey of flavor and fire. From there, Karrikin Spirits Company was formed — a full-service, grain to glass distillery producing handcrafted spirits, sparkling spirits, non-alcoholic sodas, and beer.

Cincinnati's best wedding weather arrives in late spring (May-June) and early fall (September-October), when temperatures are comfortable and outdoor ceremonies shine. Summer weddings are popular but can bring heat and humidity, while winter offers cozy indoor celebrations with potential snow for dramatic photos. Peak wedding season (May through October) means booking 12-18 months ahead, especially for Saturday evenings at top venues. Off-peak months (November through March) can save you 20-30% on venue costs and give you more flexibility with dates. Spring gardens bloom beautifully in Eden Park, while fall foliage along the Ohio River creates stunning photo opportunities. If you're flexible on timing, consider a Friday or Sunday wedding in shoulder months like April or November.

Venue costs here average around $4,500 at 100 guests, giving you more budget flexibility for photography, florals, and catering.
