Buss Farms is the best hidden gem wedding venue near Columbus. My (now) husband and I had searched for quite a few venues and just never got that perfect “feeling” that I wanted about any of them. Every place had some negatives that I couldn’t quite get past. Then, my husband found Buss Farms and we booked a tour. We immediately loved the owners, Matt and Stephanie! They were just the sweetest and made us feel so comfortable and excited about envisioning our wedding there! They just made it so personal for us! The venue itself is stunning! We barely needed any decor because the venue itself is so beautiful! It was perfect size for our wedding and I loved having separate spaces for dinner seating and cocktail hour stuff. The views from where the ceremony is held outside are the most perfect backdrop for any photos! THE PINE TREES though. When Matt and Stephanie were showing us the venue, they showed us the mini pine tree forest and that sealed the deal for me! It is absolutely breathtaking for sunset photos (or any photos really). Matt and Stephanie were the warmest people and so easy to work with. They have great experience and ideas. They make you feel like you’re part of their family. Our wedding was everything we wanted and more!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were extremely happy with our wedding at Oak Grove! The venue is gorgeous for photos and set up perfectly for a seamless flow throughout the evening. The greenhouse was intimate and unique for the ceremony and the reception is stunning as well. Our wedding coordinator, Sydney, was phenomenal to work with and was great about working with our vendors to ensure our night was seamless! All other Jorgensen vendors (catering, florals, etc.) were responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. Many of our guests stated that the food was the best wedding food they have ever tasted and our florals were beautiful and set up exactly as we discussed. Sydney, the servers, bartenders, and all other event staff did a fantastic job of hosting our guests and bringing our wedding vision to fruition. We had a great experience at the Oak Grove venue and are grateful to have worked with such a kind and hard working team!

Anytime I had a question, Lisa was ready to answer it or to set my mind at ease about things. She always had time to talk things through and never made us feel rushed. Things could be flexible when necessary. The whole day was lovely from beginning to end. Thank you for making this as stress free as possible!

The Beverly Mansion is a gorgeous venue with an accommodating staff that helped make our wedding day special. Their primary communication method is email, which allows them to respond clearly and concisely to questions. For the quality and beautiful historic spaces that The Beverly offers, they are very reasonably priced, especially for the Columbus area. Guests were even taking photos of the venue to get ideas for their own future events! On our wedding day, The Beverly's team helped set up all of the tables, chairs, linens and dishware. Even when I made last-minute changes the day-of, they were extremely flexible and helpful. Our wedding was beautiful thanks in large part to The Beverly Mansion. I cannot recommend them highly enough for weddings or other events.

The Venue The venue itself is stunning year round. Words can't do justice to how gorgeous the building and grounds are. We had spent months looking at other venues beforehand, but nothing even came close. The property has a history and story to it as well, which we can definitely appreciate. It feels secluded with trees and foliage surrounding it on all sides and the mansion is unreal. This place is a hidden gem. The Staff Lisa Ferraro is just the best. She is so kind, insightful, proactive, and all-around fantastic at what she does. We'd spent a good amount of time getting to know her on the first day that we toured and everything just clicked. We had great, fun conversations and felt so much more relaxed about our wedding knowing that this was it. She connected us with the best vendors (shout out to Matt the DJ with Seamless Sounds!), went out of her way to accommodate the accessibility needs of our guests, and asked all the right questions to keep our wedding planning on track. She truly went above and beyond to make sure our wedding went perfectly and we can't say enough great things about her! The rest of the staff nailed it too-- the setup day-of looked beautiful and teardown went flawlessly.
