Established in 1969, the 50-acre parcel in Brunswick with nothing more than an old barn and a dream. The barn, originally built in 1869, became the foundation for a Ski Lodge, but would ultimately become the event center that it is today. Although many updates and renovations have taken place over the last 50 years the original barn remains intact, and its beams are still visible in the hall. Over the years Skyview Lodge has held countless events. The building was renovated again in 2001 to expand its capacity and continue building upon the success of the hall rentals. Skyview Lodge heads into its 3rd generation of family ownership & tradition with big plans on the horizon! We look forward to you becoming part of our rich history!

Skyview was the perfect venue for our wedding! We loved that we could bring our own catering and that the alcohol was provided. The bar packages are awesome. Jordan and Donna were so helpful from the beginning. Easy to work with, kind and very communicative whenever I had questions. The venue itself is beautiful, we got so many compliments on the ceremony space and we did very minimal decoration.

Tom’s Country Place, established in 1959. Our venue accommodates 80-450 guests. Located in a wooded area on 20 acres of scenic grounds, our beautiful gardens provide a picturesque setting for your wedding ceremony & photos. In 1945 a hard-working farmer, Thomas Hricovec had a vision to cater to families with a welcoming atmosphere. His wife, Mary, stood by him and dedicated her time to help him in their journey. The two worked together along with family & friends to make their dream come true. Using their farmland, the Hricovecs changed their lifestyle from farming food, to serving food as well. They broke ground in 1958 and celebrated their first wedding in the fall of 1959. Thomas & Mary instilled the importance of hard work and dedication in their family. Now, third-generation owner Bill Hricovec, a culinary graduate of Johnson & Wales, along with our team, integrates traditional family recipes with a mix of new and innovative menu selections to offer you a wide variety of choices.

We got married at Tom's Country Place on June 6th and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Ashley was incredible throughout the entire process—she answered our questions quickly, explained everything clearly, and made sure all our vendors had what they needed to do their jobs well. The space itself is gorgeous and plenty big for a celebration, with delicious food that our guests are still talking about. What really stood out was how affordable the venue is without cutting corners on quality or service. The staff went above and beyond to make our day special, and we'd recommend TCP to any couple looking for the perfect wedding venue!

Tyson was clearly the right pick for us from the moment we interviewed him. An undeniable professional talking about his work. He was modest but still reassuring. His pre-event form was helpful, and he took the time to go over it with us clearly and thoroughly before our big day. He gave advice but gently, without pressuring us away from our instincts about what our people would respond to. Day of, he came technologically prepared. Setup was great. His work on the mic was sparse—but perfect. And his song selections were just spot-frigging-on. A dozen people at our wedding have asked us about him. We love Tyson. Thank you forever!!!

For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for creating in any capacity. It wasn't until I picked up a camera that I found out what my favorite type of creating was. Being creative is what I do, simple. I am from Northeast OH. My favorite thing to capture would have to be a toss up between sports and weddings. I love to workout and think fitness is important. But most importantly, God is the head of my life and I wouldn't be where I am OR where I'm headed without him.

Donte did such an amazing job at our wedding! He was very kind and professional and everyone was pleasantly surprised how fun he was too! He made sure to capture all the important moments of our wedding day while also being a part of the party and hitting some dance moves on the dance floor! 10/10 would recommend hiring him for any important events that you want to be captured in a meaningful way.

Founded in 1940, when we say we have decades of experience, we really mean it. Since then our love for flowers and our team has only grown. Day to day you can catch us designing floral arrangements and delivering them by the truck full. We source locally whenever possible (of course). We especially love weddings and just adore our brides. Aside from that, we are probably spending any other spare time cheering on fellow entrepreneurs and our favorite vendors of this industry. We love to pour back into our city by supporting local events, schools, and the animal shelter. And we could go on of course, but there is a word limit :)

I have nothing but great things to say about Kristin and the Merkels team! She took our vision and brought it to life, while also being so stress free to work with. We truly appreciated all of Kristin's recommendations and guidance throughout the planning process. She also was so thoughtful to work with when considering our budget and flexible with adjusting things to make it work for us. I can say confidently that Merkels was one of our best vendor decisions - would highly recommend to any other bride!

From the moment we first spoke with Paige, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Quite literally, she was the very first wedding vendor of any sort that we met! Her communication style was open, accommodating, and amazing. The quality of Paige's work is simply beautiful, and her services were incredibly adaptable to us and worked within our budget without any stress. On our wedding day, Paige felt like one of the family and did an amazing job capturing all of our best moments, from the ceremony to the reception. Her creative ideas for photos of my husband and I doing what we love were spot on, and the final images are truly breathtaking.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our reception was everything we could've dreamed of and more all thanks to Follow the Sun! While we were exploring our options for a live band we got a recommendation to check out FtS, so we went to see them perform live and we knew right away they were the band for us. They are incredibly talented musicians and the band has great chemistry. They bring great energy and get the crowd going. And that was all just from observing before we even spoke with them regarding booking! FtS goes above and beyond to provide a customized experience. Once we inquired about booking they made the whole process so easy and fun for us. We met to discuss our vision for our day, and they were so accommodating as well as provided great insight for us from their experience with other weddings. They have an amazing set list of songs to choose from. Over the weeks leading up to the wedding, any questions we had they were quick to respond and so kind. We had custom requests with family traditions/songs and FtS were able make it all fit seamlessly into the evening. Our dancefloor was packed all night because of the incredible job the band did. We are so thankful and would highly recommend them to any couple interested in live music for their big day. Special shoutout to Sophie for being so attentive and answering all of our questions, and to Richie for being an INCREDIBLE master of ceremonies handling bridal party introductions and announcements throughout the evening. We didn't have to worry about a thing, you made our night so special and fun. Thank you for everything! PS - Even though our wedding was almost 2 years ago now, we still follow the band and go out and see them perform every chance we get! They are amazing and just keep getting better!!

What makes my business stand out is the care, attention to detail, and personalized experience I give every single client. I don’t believe in “one look fits all.” I take the time to understand your style, skin type, features, and vision to create a glam that enhances your natural beauty while still making you feel comfortable and confident. I specialize in bridal makeup and hair, using high-quality products and techniques that last all day. My goal is to create an experience where my clients feel relaxed, listened to, and excited about their final look. I truly love what I do, and I put my heart into every appointment.

She was my makeup and hair artist for my courthouse wedding! She was amazing! I don’t think I’ve ever looked better. She took her time and got me right for the best day ever! She spent time threading my eyebrows when she didn’t have too because they didn’t look right, she even threaded my mustache lollll. She was super easy to talk to and responded to my initial message within 1 day. She was super nice and reasonably priced! The makeup and hair lasted forever. I was too lazy to take my hair out the night of so I left it I think for a day or 2 and it still looked great and in place! The makeup was washed off that night but it held up until I washed it off hours and hours later.

These ladies are phenomenal! We hired them for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made for our day. From our first chat over zoom, we knew instantly that we could trust them and that they would capture us, not just a one-size-fits-all deal. They truly capture each couple in their own unique way and you can tell just by looking at their work. I’m so glad we did an engagement shoot first, because it got all the nerves out for us and we got to build more of a relationship with them before our day. We are not people who like being in front of cameras, but their enthusiasm and professionalism put us, especially me, at instant ease! The photos turned out great even with it being an unforcasted rainy and unusually hot fall day. And the wedding, holy moly! They had to wrangle all sorts of family dynamics and chaos while still taking beautiful photos in the rain. Not sure how that happened, but they made it all seem so easy and we had so much fun with them! We didn’t have to worry about a thing! …Not one thing! We received our first look photos in no time after the wedding and we are in love already. Can’t wait to see the rest! We will definitely be contacting them again in the future. Wherever you are in your photographer search (and reading reviews like this), just stop and set up a chat now. You will not be disappointed!

I helped my mother-in-law plan her wedding at Carawood Lake this fall and everything about the process was wonderful. Suzanne is a very warm and responsive communicator. The grounds are extensive and the view of the lake from the back patio of the venue was beautiful. A highlight was the bonfire after dinner when all the guests roasted s’mores next to the lake. It was such a wonderful day. It was the perfect place to have an intimate, private wedding surrounded by nature.

Livia and the team at Orchard Hills were professional, dynamic, had amazing input planning wise and were a wealth of knowledge.

She's extremely dedicated and organized. The team itself day of is efficient and so, so kind. I loved having my wedding here, due to the staff and how beautiful the grounds are. Plenty of room to get ready for both the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Having our reception hall in the same location as the ceremony made life so easy. And in my opinion, this was so most gorgeous location for an outdoor wedding. I felt like a fairytale princess all day. No regrets at all, I highly recommend at least touring the location and meeting with Livia!

Whitehall was the perfect choice for our wedding! I was apprehensive about having a big wedding at all and was perfectly content with eloping or going to a courthouse, but ultimately decided to have a wedding for our families and the memories. Julia at Whitehall made this entire experience such a dream for my now-husband and I. She’s the venue coordinator but is also an angel that every bride deserves in the months leading up to her wedding and on her wedding day. She answered every stupid question I had very quickly, and is on top of things with sending emails to remind you about scheduling your rehearsal, nailing down your timelines, etc. One of the best parts about this venue is that you drop all of your decor off on the Tuesday before your wedding and they set everything up for you throughout the week! I literally didn’t have to think about a thing and could just spend the days before relaxing and tying up loose ends! We didn’t even nail down our vision for the centerpieces and most of the decor until 10-14 days before the ceremony, but Julia absolutely nailed it and everything was so beautiful! The day of the wedding, her assistant, Brenda, checked in on us while we got ready to make sure we were doing okay and she was the sweetest and just as organized and on top of it as Julia was. Before, during and after the ceremony, as well as during the reception, Julia checked in with my husband and I so many times to make sure we were okay and got us drinks if we needed it. She took so much off my plate mentally the week of my wedding and that was just so special and I appreciated it in ways I don’t know how to explain in 3500 characters or less. This venue has a caterer that comes with it (Taste of Excellence) who were also great to work with, and not having to make that decision was insanely helpful. I mostly dealt with Mikaela and she was very helpful with all of my questions and even accommodated us to schedule a second food tasting (something I don’t think they normally do) because my parents wanted to completely change the food options after the first tasting lol. Whitehall also has a DJ company included (Selective Sound Entertainment) who were great as well! Their online portal to actually select your song requests is a little dated and, you only get 8 “must play” songs, and the rest are more like suggestions for the DJ during the party but to be honest our DJ Jordan kept it bumping all night and it was SO fun he even had the bartender dancing with us from her station! I really couldn’t imagine doing our wedding anywhere else. I can’t recommend it enough and I’ll scream it into the sky for anyone who will listen!

Josh is so talented and was patient and understanding as we navigated COVID-19 with date and venue changes. He is soo great and gave us the cocktail hour with live music hat I had always hoped for! He let my sister sing with him and learned some new songs for us too. Hire Josh for weddings, parties and you won't be disappointed. He's incredible!

I cannot begin to describe how happy we are that we booked Basil Place for our wedding. I planned our Cleveland wedding from out-of-state, and Michelle from the get-go was so flexible in setting up tours for my family and fiancé when we got into town. First, I'll speak about the venue itself: it is absolutely the most beautiful place I've ever seen. The whole farm is surrounded by beautiful nature, trees, and ponds, and rolling pastures. We were able to have a beautiful outdoor ceremony, get ready in the carriage house, and use the manor house for pictures, hanging out, and pre-wedding snacks. Our reception was in the barn, which is so gorgeous and opens up onto a patio with views of rolling fields and reflecting ponds (which are stocked with bass if you feel like fishing like some of our guests did!) There was so much space for our reception we were able to set up cornhole and spikeball outside the barn which made for such a fun evening. Our guest loved taking pictures all around the property. I cannot say enough good things about how perfect this venue was for our wedding! I also have to mention how absolutely wonderful and above and beyond Michelle and her staff were throughout every step of the wedding process. Michelle truly feels like family to us. She made the process so easy and was so accommodating to all of our requests. She checked on us so many times leading up to and the day of the wedding- we truly felt so taken care of It is so apparent that this is not just a business to her, but truly her passion. Their preferred caterer, A Taste Of Excellence, was hands-down the best experience with a caterer we've ever had. Mikaela was so kind and flexible, and the food was absolutely to die for we were so impressed with them that we had them cater our welcome dinner as well. They do so many weddings at basil place that they are very familiar with set up and where to go, which makes for that much smoother of a day. All the catering staff were so kind and friendly and added to the positive atmosphere. In summary, if we could go back in time, we would choose Basil Place 100 times over!!

  • Serves Dorset, OH

I’m Nicole, Owner and Lead Designer of SLF. My path to florals was not conventional, but it was intentional. After 8 years as a probation officer, I had my son, reevaluated my life, and fell in love with the world of floral design. Today, I create elevated floral experiences rooted in romantic palettes, texture, and thoughtful composition. Every bloom is chosen with purpose and must feel right. As a mother, I am ever-conscious of how quickly moments pass. This awareness shapes the way I design by not simply creating arrangements, but helping to frame memories and bring warmth to once-in-a-lifetime celebrations.

Sophie Lou Florals went above and beyond to make my wedding day flawless. She hand delivered the flowers. The flowers were fresh and just gorgeous. She listened to what I wanted, drafted up pictures and then delivered perfectly on what I wanted! I highly recommend using them for your events.

Hi! My name is Katie and I own Katie’s Kakes! I am a small cottage law baker out of my home in Madison, Ohio. I have been a chef for many years and one year I wanted to make my mom a special cake for Mother’s Day. Her favorite flower is hydrangea, so I attempted to make a cake that looked like a hydrangea. It didn’t look as bad as I thought it was going to. After posting it, I had many friends and family reach out for me to bake them a custom cake. Finally in 2022 I decided to create Katie’s Kakes and received my LLC. I love being in the kitchen and creating something beautiful and tasty for any wedding! I love what I do!

I got the opportunity to try a variety of sweets from Katie’s Kakes & she pleasantly surpassed my expectations! Between beautifully decorated chocolate cake to personalized cookies it was everything and more. I’m very much pleased with the service & would highly recommend her for any needs you may have!

Hi, I’m Vanna. I’m a documentary photographer near Cleveland. I hunt for the things that usually slip through the cracks. The heavy weight of a glance when no one else is looking. The way the light cuts across a room right before everything changes. The raw, unfiltered energy of the people you love most, caught in moments they don't even know are being watched. I want to capture the emotions that linger in a space long after the day is done. ♡

Remington&Clover Photography was the perfect choice for our photography! Their communication style is always so responsive and they were always willing to capture every special moment. The quality of their work is 100000/10 - it's always perfect! Vanna, the photographer, made me feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera, even though I normally feel awkward posing. She was able to capture incredible candid shots that I never thought were possible. Vanna is truly the sweetest person to work with and has been there for all of my life events. She's the best photographer I've ever had, and I know she'll continue to be my go-to for all my photography needs!

Hello! I'm Danny and I've wanted to be a filmmaker since I was seven years old. Wes Craven's "Scream" was the catalyst for having a camera in my hands. I have a need to tell stories that resonate with people and make them feel something. ​ I also happen to be a HUGE sap. I love filming weddings because I genuinely love seeing people at their absolute happiest. The opportunity to turn that happiness into art that couple's can look back on is so gratifying.

Awarded Best of Zola
Danny was super easy to work with and listened to all of my thoughts and ideas. He gave us all the footage we wanted and more so we could remember every detail of our big day. So many people are on the fence about a videographer, but it is totally worth it! We can look back on all of our family and friends having the time of their lives and remember all the little moments that can be forgotten after time.

Plumtree offers a thoughtfully curated collection of unique gifts and cherished keepsakes, perfect for celebrating life’s most meaningful moments—from weddings and new babies to housewarmings and beyond. Each piece is designed to bring warmth, joy, and lasting connection to every milestone.

Plumtree Paper Goods made the whole stationery process so easy from start to finish. They got back to us quickly with ideas and really listened to what we wanted, we didn't even have to make any changes. The designs they created felt unique and fit our wedding perfectly, nothing felt generic or rushed. We loved how everything was handled efficiently, so we didn't have to stress about this part of our planning. The quality of the paper and printing was excellent, and honestly, it was worth every penny. Pricing was beyond fair for the excellent quality. We'd definitely work with them again and recommend them to anyone looking for custom invitations and paper goods.
