“The Baum Opera House was the perfect fit for our wedding day. From our first conversation, the team was quick to respond and truly knew their space inside and out. They even met us in the evening so we could measure things and make sure our vision would work, then helped us tweak a few ideas to fit the layout just right. Erin made it feel like working with an old friend. For the price, you honestly can't beat the amount of square footage and the beautiful bones of the building. The staff was friendly and easy to work with throughout the entire process, which made planning feel stress-free. We'd absolutely recommend The Baum to any couple looking for a venue that gives you great value without cutting corners.”

“The Oscar Event Center is absolutely incredible venue. We got married there on 9/19/26. Our guest count was about 100 people but the venue is big enough to accommodate but larger guest counts than that. It is above the Jungle Jim's store which makes it such a fun surprise for guests when they arrive and have no idea it existed above a store they've been to before. We loved that the venue is so unique, it isn't your typical, cookie cutter wedding venue that looks exactly like so many others. It also has so much visual interest/decor already that you don't need to fill space with a ton of your own decor and flowers. Not to mention the price. It is so affordable for what you get compared to other places we got quotes from. When we booked the venue, we got the entire space (huge ballroom, lounge area, pub, terrace and bridal suite) whereas a lot of venues only allow to rent out 1 or 2 rooms for the same or even higher price. The catering is done on site and they have their own bar staff. Most of the big vendors you need for your wedding are already offered directly through the venue which is so much more convenient and affordable. The staff is incredible. We worked with Jan from the very beginning. She is no nonsense, straight to the point and transparent about pricing and everything as well as so quick to respond to any questions or requests. Ashley was our day-of coordinator who was also provided by the venue. She was incredible. Our wedding day had absolutely no hiccups in timing. She set up almost all of our decor herself and did it perfectly with very little instruction from us. She made sure people were where they needed to be without needing to double check with us. Our wedding was perfect and it is purely because of her working behind the scenes. I would 1000% recommend this venue to anyone for their wedding. You absolutely cannot beat the price for the accommodations and services they offer. In my opinion, the pictures online do not do this place justice. I highly recommend viewing it in person because it's so much bigger and cooler than what we thought it would be when we saw it online initially. We couldn't be happier with how our wedding turned out.”

The buffet meal and appetizers were outstanding—fresh, beautifully presented, and perfectly prepared. Everyone commented on how delicious and plentiful the food was, and the beverage and coffee stations stayed well stocked throughout the evening. The staff were warm, attentive, and especially considerate of our 90‑year‑old guest of honor and older family members. The room layout made it easy for guests to mingle and move comfortably.

“We had our wedding at the Oasis in October 2024 & the sales staff is absolutely incredible. They always remembered us even with months between meetings & were fantastic every step of the way - ESPECIALLY the day of our wedding! Natasha is the absolute best and helped our wedding day be absolutely perfect! If we could do it all over again we wouldn’t change a thing. The gazebo was such a beautiful location for our ceremony & our indoor reception just knocked our socks off. The entire staff at the Oasis is incredible and I couldn’t recommend having your wedding or event held here enough. They really made our dream wedding a reality and made sure everything went smoothly start to finish.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better venue than Little Miami Brewing Company Event Center! From start to finish, the entire team made our wedding day unforgettable. Our day-of coordinator, Abby, was absolutely amazing. She offered so much guidance and support leading up to the wedding and was incredibly helpful throughout the entire day. She truly knows her stuff, and having her there gave us so much peace of mind. Although Mother Nature had other plans and we weren't able to have our ceremony on the beautiful outdoor patio, the staff pivoted quickly and transformed the indoor space into a stunning ceremony location. Everything was handled seamlessly, and our guests couldn't believe how beautiful it turned out. The bar staff was fantastic, and the drinks were a huge hit! Their cocktails are some of the best we've ever had, and so many of our guests commented on how delicious they were. Do yourself a favor and order the espresso martini—you won't regret it! Another huge bonus was the beautiful bride and groom suites. Having dedicated, comfortable spaces to get ready made the morning relaxed and enjoyable for our entire wedding party. We truly wouldn't change a single thing about choosing Little Miami Brewing Company Event Center for our wedding. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, the staff went above and beyond, and they helped make our day everything we had hoped for. We highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for an incredible wedding experience!”

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.

The day of staff was super friendly and attentive, and the drinks they served were amazing. There was quite a number of shifts for the coordinator person so we did have a bit of confusion around the timing of the dinner, but ultimately the team pulled through and made it a super special evening for us and our guests. Overall, we were really pleased with Karrikin Spirits and would highly recommend them for any wedding-related event.”
