Wedding venue shopping is a lot on a couple. It takes time and energy and can be very stressful. However, when we say we found the perfect place we mean it. Donauschwaben’s was one of our venue choices coming highly recommended by our friends and family already. We reached out through their website and within no time we got an immediate response from the Christine, Event/ Wedding planner to set up a meeting together. She is not only extremely kind, but had everything organized so beautifully to choose from it was a no-brainer to choose this venue. She even recommended our DJ who had played a previous wedding there who was incredible. All communication leading up to our big day was efficient and layed out easily for us to understand. Our checks were deposited in a timely manner by the venue, our tasting was so nice and so delicious. The no pressure wedding planning was worth every penny spent. Our wedding day was so special and so beautiful from start to finish from the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to our lovely reception to follow. Not only was Christine present the day of, but the staff was also on their A game all night long. Everyone was so incredibly friendly and kind, we felt like royalty. We both highly recommend this venue and if you do, definitely get the Schnitzel, Prost! The only recommendation to the venue would be to update their beverage packages to include seltzers such as High noons or White claws.

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!

My fiancé and I got so much for what we paid! I worked a lot with Dee, and she was great at keeping open communication and answering any questions we had. She was kind, helpful, and her and her husband, Vell, did an amazing job with our ceremony! The reception space was gorgeous. They did a lot of the set up, clean up, in house catering, desserts, and more. Out of all the venues and weddings we have been to in the past Vell's HANDS DOWN had the best food we've had. Our guests were raving over the buffet style setup and the food (especially the carved beef). They do have a bar, but we have to provide the alcohol. That's honestly fine with us and worked quite well! Dee even gave us a sheet giving an ideal amount of various wines and liquors for our wedding based on different guest counts. Dee also recommended hotels, a DJ, some photographers, and more when we had our first consultation. Working with Vells helped put a lot of my worries at ease. For anyone looking around the Medina area, I highly recommend checking out Vell's Event Center. It made our wedding so much more magically than we could have ever expected. For anyone curious of what we got for catering: Water pitchers were at every table as well as bread and salad. The buffet for us consisted of pasta salad (my favorite), corn, mixed vegetables, baked chicken, pasta Alfredo, carved beef, and mashed potatoes. The desserts consisted of our cake (vanilla with raspberry filling and chocolate with chocolate filling), brownies, lady fingers, and cheesecake!

Five fun facts about the Lake Erie Building: 1. We were originally built to be Templar Motors back in 1917. There were less than 3,000 of these cars ever manufactured and if you look carefully, you may even be able to spot one while in the event space! 2. Omni Lakewood purchased the building in 2005 and now manages the building, which has been divided into individual suites that are home to over 100 businesses. 3. The west parking lot where our dock is located used to be a test track for Templar Motors. 4. We host only one event per weekend and give our clients access beginning on Wednesday so they can bring in all their personal touches! We also only require cards and gifts go with them that night and everything else can stay giving you more time to spend with your new spouse! 5. We include a private parking lot and have a huge municipal lot across the street that's available to guests. We offer 3 wedding rental packages.

The Lake Erie Building was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, their team was incredibly responsive, helpful, and accommodating as we planned our special day. The venue itself is a large, open blank canvas with a lot of potential - we were able to transform the space into exactly what we envisioned. Having access to the venue from Wednesday through Monday was a huge reason we chose this venue, and it was amazing to be able to set up and take our time without feeling rushed. The team made sure we had everything we needed and were available to answer any of our questions along the way. We're so grateful to the Lake Erie Building for helping make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

Hotel Cleveland was a wonderful venue for our wedding. The communication with the event team was easier over the phone and in person, which made planning a breeze. The food and drinks were exceptional, and the recent renovations to the Forest City Ballroom created a lovely, modern atmosphere perfect for our 215 guests and live band. While we sometimes needed to follow up a couple times with the event planner, she was quick to address any questions or concerns once we connected. The ease of set up and vendor coordination also contributed to making our special day run smoothly. We're so glad we chose Hotel Cleveland and highly recommend it to other couples.

Ariel International Center is a renovated 100-year old historic, rustic red brick building, with large windows, elegant chandeliers, high wood ceilings and earth tone wall colors. Opened in 2012, the event center is unmatched in providing for a memorable event with unforgettable sunset views over Lake Erie and a perfect view of the Cleveland Skyline.

This venue is unreal. The rooftop is just so cool and unique and the views are incredible. The fourth floor reception space was beautiful as well. So many of our guests told us how much they loved the vibe of the venue. There are so many beautiful photo locations throughout the building inside and outside. Tracey was amazing to work with - it was so clear she knew what she was doing and I never had to stress at all. The midges came out the week of our October wedding so we had to make a decision about the rooftop, but Tracey was so helpful and luckily we were able to do rooftop ceremony and serve cocktail hour food and drinks on the fourth floor. It is so cool that the rooftop stays open all night - our guests loved it! Also, the bar staff was incredible and the drinks were amazing! The bride and groom suites were so convenient too. It was so nice for our bridal parties to hang out there all morning and made clean up so easy and flexible.

Originally built in the early 1900s for luxury faucet manufacturing, the 22,000 square foot warehouse sat empty for decades. The creative potential of the location caught our eye, and in 2016, we went to work to renovate the building. As event vendors ourselves, we designed The Madison to be the best parts of every cool venue we’ve ever worked from Seattle to New York City and Chicago to the Caribbean. In 2018, we reopened the restored space The Madison. We quickly gained acclaim from the area’s top event planners, community collaborators, and even local professional athletes. As Northeast Ohio’s premier event venue, our mission is to cultivate human connection and life’s treasured moments. You’ll find it effortless to work with us and within the space so you can focus more on your goals – and your guests.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot give this venue enough praise! We had the most incredible experience at The Madison for our wedding. From start to finish, it exceeded our expectations in every way and I only have Daryl and Anthony to thank for that. The space is absolutely stunning. I loved that it is a blank slate and that we could decorate it how we wanted. The creative freedom was important to me. Daryl and Anthony are exceptional! They were super understanding when we needed to reschedule and were super easy and fun to work with. We highly recommend The Madison to any couple looking for a beautiful, stress-free (no literally, I was so calm) wedding day. We will forever cherish the memories that were made here and we are so thankful for everything Daryl and Anthony did to make our day so magical. 3

I don’t think I can fully put into words how amazing our experience was with House Three Thirty for our wedding day! From the moment we put out an inquiry and toured the venue, we were set! I have never worked with a more prompt and accommodating coordinator as Vaughn Myers - he’s STELLAR! He helped us with every detail to make our day perfect! The kitchen staff accommodated making Indian food, the getting ready spaces for both the bride and groom were phenomenal, they allowed us to use the space for our engagement photos, and even went out of their way to acquire over 100 records to use for our place settings at the venue (I had mentioned during our tasting how I loved the set up and Vaughn made it happen without a question). Vaughn also helped us stick to a timeline during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception to ensure we weren’t running late while making sure all our guests were taken care of. Aside from their amazing staff, the venue itself is stunning and did not require much additional decor outside of our florals (big help with our budget). 100000/10 recommend utilizing House Three Thirty for any events in the future!
