Journey of Memories is absolutely beautiful. We looked for a place that would have a gorgeous view as well as an outstanding building. We found both at Journey of Memories. We were able to accommodate over 150 people comfortably. The celebration was quite a tribute to my husband. The building that housed our celebration is a piece of art. The setting is breathtaking. It is perfect for any special event. The owners accommodated us in every way.

The Ohioan was the most perfect venue for our Wedding! From the moment we decided, they were so helpful with all our questions and requests. Their Sales person Lindsey was wonderful with helping me with my contract. Their coordinator Ben was outstanding! He was there every step of the way and was so detail oriented! All their staff were wonderful! We had our wedding in Edgewater and everything went off without a hitch. The food and drinks were delicious.

Lavender Ridge Farm was an amazing venue all around! They used Aisle Planner to streamline communication, which was great for my busy schedule. Perfect for up to 150 guests, their pricing included so much more than other venues - tables, custom chairs, linens, napkins, and more. The team at Lavender Ridge was honest, upfront, and incredibly helpful. They had a preferred vendor list that was fantastic, and even came through when we had a last-minute change to a large decor item. Jennifer was amazing to work with, and I highly recommend this beautiful venue.

We chose Le Meridien Columbus for both our ceremony and reception. This was the best decision we made for our wedding. In the heart of the Short North, the location is unbeatable. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous and offered our guests an excellent and upscale stay for the weekend. As the bride, my group got ready in the presidential suite, which I highly recommend. This gave us (and especially the hair & makeup teams) enough space to get ready for the day. The hotel is connected to The Guild House, so they provide all of the food for the wedding reception. The food was top tier. You have plenty of menu options to select from and you can customize the experience as much as you want. We loved it because we were all in one location and this made the timeline such a breeze. Last, the Catering Sales Mgr. Sheri was our #1 help through it all. You meet with her and the team a number of times throughout the planning process. She was so helpful and communicative with us through everything. If you are considering a location in the Short North, Le Meridien is the place to book.

Based in Marion, OH, The Brickyard On Main is a wedding venue that offers a big-city feel on a small town budget. Once home to the likes of Kroger, Bender Liquor Supply, and Spano’s Market, this beautiful building offers historic charm and modern amenities with a splash of elegance. From the second you walk in the door, you fall in love with the exposed rafters, brick walls, original wood floors, and a limestone wall dating back to 1832. From there, you can go through our glass garage door to an incredible enclosed courtyard, complete with string lights, fire feature, and artificial turf. Our bar is fully stocked, and while we could try to describe the aesthetics, words don’t do it justice. Seriously. Check out the pictures. Two private dressing rooms make getting ready fun and easy. And while we don't like to brag, the restrooms here are pretty dope. Again, look at the pictures! We offer a prep kitchen for the licensed caterer of your choice to use!

The Brickyard on Main was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, their communication was effective, with quick responses and a very professional demeanor. The space itself had a wonderfully rustic, moody, and romantic feel that set the ideal tone for our special day. They were very good at answering any questions we had and coordinating our big day so it ran smoothly! The Brickyard on Main truly exceeded our expectations and we're so grateful to have found them to host our wedding.

We had our son's graduation party at this ranch with about 100 people, and honestly, it was just perfect. The place is beautiful with a huge, super spacious barn with really unique décor inside that made setting up a bar, dance floor, and tables super easy. The layout kept the flow of guests smooth and uncluttered, which made the whole party feel relaxed and comfortable. We also rented the three-bedroom brick house separately, which was great for getting ready and having a quiet spot away from the party for a bit. The side patio was wide and extremely well spaced for serving food, and since it was covered, it worked perfectly even when it rained with no interruptions at all. The golf carts for getting around were a fun bonus, and everyone loved cruising the grounds. And those sunsets? Absolutely gorgeous. They made the whole evening feel magical. Renting it was a seamless process and the staff was amazing! they really made everything easy and were super helpful. We’ve had so many friends say how much they loved the venue. If you’re thinking about a wedding, graduation, or any big get-together, this place is a total gem. We can’t recommend it enough!
