We LOVED The Beverly Mansion. We live in Columbus, and with our families in NE and West Ohio, this was the perfect middle point. Tim was extremely communicative and made the process a breeze for logistics and the catering. 7 months later, our guests are still raving about the venue and food! We go to 6-7 weddings a year and can truly attest that what Beverly has to offer, and the price point, can't be matched! If we had to do it all over again, we'd still pick Beverly!

If you are questioning whether to pick the Makoy or not for your big day, DO IT!!! We had our wedding reception in The Emerald Room on 7/19/2025 and it was, simply put, the best day of our lives and that was in large part thanks to Matt Eder, Erin Pearson, and their team at the Makoy! From the day we met them when we were touring the venue, they were some of the most personable, accommodating, easy to talk to, and easy to work with people we've ever met! We knew immediately after we walked out the day that there was no other place to have our wedding other than the Makoy. We had 250 people at our reception and our guests were raving about the fast service, both for plated food and at the bar, large portion sizes, and beautiful decorations and setup at the Makoy. Not only that, but throughout the wedding planning process, Matt was able to answer all of my millions of emails with questions in HOURS! We just can't say enough about how amazing the Makoy is and their staff there. Pick the Makoy for your big day, you won't regret it!

The murals bring so much life into the room. I had so many compliments on the space! Josh was very easy to work with throughout the planning process!
