“We couldn't have asked for a better venue than the Columbus Museum of Art. From our first conversation, the team was easy to work with and listened to what we wanted for our day. What made this place so special is that we had full use of the entire museum, which allowed our guests to explore the galleries during the reception—something you don't find at most venues. The food was incredible; guests kept telling us it was the best wedding meal they'd ever had. The space itself felt magical, and we were able to customize every detail to match our vision. Our guests left raving about how beautiful and unique the experience was, and we felt the exact same way.”

“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.”

“The Orchard House in Granville, Ohio made my wedding location and venue dreams come true! The pine tree chapel was breathtaking for our ceremony and photos - as our family and friends gathered on antique wooden pews to witness our vows on the most perfect May day. Plus, the reception area was top-notch. It comfortably fit all 105 of our guests and left room for a live band and dance floor! My husband and I live locally in Granville and recommend Joe at the Orchard House - he will go above and beyond to ensure your special day goes smoothly. Many thanks to Joe and his family for supporting our wedding vision and providing the perfect location for our ceremony reception - all in one place. Great restrooms, parking, and kitchen area, too. You can't go wrong! XO”
