Rushville, OH
  • Up to 300 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $400

We invite you to watch our profile video to see why we're a Place Like Nowhere Else... The Havenstone is an 18 acre property that has been family owned for over 40 years. We've recently made this magical space available for limited engagements (weddings, photography, the arts & wellness). We're fully outdoor & specialize in "tent weddings" (ours or an outside vendor - we have no vendor restrictions). Our pricing is based upon number of guests, day of the week, season, & year. We do this to allow access for all budgets - if you feel connected to the Havenstone & can't imagine your wedding anywhere else, we want to remove any obstacles. For pricing, you'll use our propriety system (the "Customizer") to build & compare multiple variations of your day to dial-in pricing - & then compare them to our "Everything Package" (absolutely everything for an entire day). This is all easily & immediately accessible through a link to our homepage we will send if you request additional information.

“The Havenstone was the perfect choice for our wedding venue. From the moment we first reached out, Mike and Victoria were attentive, accommodating, and quick to respond to all of our questions and needs. Their communication style put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The property's natural beauty is truly unmatched - our guests were in awe of the stunning scenery and grounds. They were so helpful with walking us through the booking and planning, and even came to our rescue when we had a crisis with the food, letting us use their own microwave to heat it up. I can't say enough positive things about The Havenstone and Mike & Victoria. They are such amazing people, and made our special day truly unforgettable. Isabella&Adam”

“Brookshire made our wedding planning process a breeze. Our engagement was a total of almost exactly 6 months, and we could literally not have done it if we did not book with Brookshire. They made scheduling with vendors SO easy, including a vendor preview were we were able to see the venue's examples of vendor work, sample some of the dishes on the menu, and really visualize the space. They handled my questions quickly, and concisely, and were really quite reasonably priced, considering the things you get when booking here. On the day of the wedding, everything was so smooth. The venue was set up perfectly, and any changes we needed to make were done swiftly and well. They made sure my husband and I got to sample all of the food we ordered, including each layer of cake. They truly take care of you down to the details, like bringing you a glass of water during your photos. The vendors they work with are exquisite in their own right too, the food and cake were delicious, the DJ was so professional and kind, and the florals were gorgeous. Our add-ons were amazing, and our guests LOVED the photo booth that we added. The bartenders were wonderful, and kept the drinks flowing all night without issue. Everyone left saying it was a "perfect wedding", even the hard-to-impress ones. Brookshire was truly worth every dollar spent.”

“I wanted to get married barefoot in the woods and our anniversary is in March. Everyone thought I was crazy but The Brook was willing to work with me to make that dream come true. We had plenty of backup plans but didn't need them. The cabins were incredibly convenient for family and guests and really nicely done. The firepit became a huge focal point-we had our rehearsal dinner over a campfire and the night after the ceremony stayed up late chatting with family around the fire. It brought back so many childhood memories of doing the same growing up. And being able to include our dog was extra special. The brookside spot was the most incredible pictureseque view and we have the most amazing photos!”
