The Hotel at Oberlin ended up being the perfect place for our wedding. The location is close to pretty much anything you'll need for a wedding weekend. It's within a 1 minute walk to a variety of potential photograph locations (e.g. Hall Auditorium, Tappan Square...) as well as business (e.g. salons, restaurants, cafes) that can help your wedding day go smoothly. There are also a variety of potential ceremony locations within walking distance. We chose the Apollo Theater across the street. The team at the hotel, especially Lauren, was responsive and helpful every step of the way. The chef and Lauren worked together to accommodate a variety of dietary restrictions and requests (e.g. extra entree option, catered lunch and snacks...). They were also helpful with managing the linen rentals, room design, and room block reservations. Guests were charmed by Oberlin and gave us feedback that they enjoyed being able to slow and down and enjoy small town life during the weekend. Thank you Lauren and the rest of the team of making our weekend so special:) Photo: Photo credit Lindsey Beckwith, florals by Blossom.

The grounds are extensive and the view of the lake from the back patio of the venue was beautiful. A highlight was the bonfire after dinner when all the guests roasted s’mores next to the lake. It was such a wonderful day. It was the perfect place to have an intimate, private wedding surrounded by nature.

Your wedding is a major milestone along your life’s journey, and I want to do my part to ensure that your special day is a success. I can’t wait to create a video you’ll treasure and want to rewatch again and again. I favor a cinematic style that emphasizes the narrative aspect of your day.

It is obvious he is passionate about his career and wants the best for each couple. He was professional and efficient. He showed us little bits of what he was filming throughout the day which helped ignite out excitement. He worked very well with our photographer.

Founded in 1940, when we say we have decades of experience, we really mean it. Since then our love for flowers and our team has only grown.

We especially love weddings and just adore our brides. Aside from that, we are probably spending any other spare time cheering on fellow entrepreneurs and our favorite vendors of this industry. We love to pour back into our city by supporting local events, schools, and the animal shelter. And we could go on of course, but there is a word limit :)

We saw Follow the Sun at a friend's wedding in Cleveland and had SO much fun on the dance floor that we hired FTS for our own out-of-state wedding! They easily navigating planning with us- even for an out of town wedding- and even provided valuable insights on the flow of the day. Their acoustic trio played beautifully for our ceremony and the band rocked it for the reception. They are extremely talented singers and musicians and play a variety of songs- EVERY SONG IS SO GOOD- they will keep you and your guests on the dance floor all night long! They have fun and are flexible to last minute changes. They are organized- sound and lighting were ideal- and know how to make your special day extra fun. Our guests (and vendors) are STILL raving about how amazing this band was and we can't wait to see them again! Highly recommend this band for your wedding or other special event! :)

We celebrated our marriage at Orchard Hills in September 2024 having booked the site in January 2023. We toured the venue and met the staff who were very friendly and professional, and we worked mainly with Livia through the planning process. With each step Livia offered great advice and feedback to help us make sure our day went as smoothly as possible. From suggesting trustworthy vendors to helping with day of setup, Livia and the staff helped take out some of the major headaches of wedding planning. What really stood out to us was the freedom to choose our own vendors. There were no hoops to jump through, no extra fees, and a plethora of decorations provided by the venue at no additional cost. We had our dream wedding and we could not have done it without the help and expertise of the kind and helpful staff at Orchard Hills. We highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to rent for any event.

For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for creating in any capacity. It wasn't until I picked up a camera that I found out what my favorite type of creating was. Being creative is what I do, simple. I am from Northeast OH. My favorite thing to capture would have to be a toss up between sports and weddings. I love to workout and think fitness is important. But most importantly, God is the head of my life and I wouldn't be where I am OR where I'm headed without him.

Hello! I'm Danny and I've wanted to be a filmmaker since I was seven years old. Wes Craven's "Scream" was the catalyst for having a camera in my hands. I have a need to tell stories that resonate with people and make them feel something. ​ I also happen to be a HUGE sap. I love filming weddings because I genuinely love seeing people at their absolute happiest. The opportunity to turn that happiness into art that couple's can look back on is so gratifying.

If I could reccomend Fullem Films to every single bride and grooms to be, I would. Going through the process of picking vendors we wanted a photographer and videographer that really valued the art and creativity aspect of their work, and also made their work feel like "us". Fullem Films did this, and went above and beyond. Not only did we get a sneak peek video the DAY AFTER our wedding, but the actual highlight feel video takes me right back to our special day: capturing the moments that stick out in my memory. 10/10 work, and if I could give him 10 stars -- I would.

In brief, we cannot recommend Meadow Ridge highly enough--the venue is beautiful and unique, but more than that, working with Seneca and her team is a pure joy! They are organized, thoughtful, responsive, and caring. They make you feel like family from the first time you meet and the investment in the success of your wedding day is incredible. Lastly, I was nervous planning a multicultural event with integration of Indian and American wedding traditions in rural Ohio and all our requests and details pertaining to Indian cultural aspects were beautifully integrated into the wedding day! It is clear that hosting excellent and memorable weddings is a proud commitment for the Meadow Ridge team, not just a job they have. Venue: large, beautiful outdoor venue with a covered pavilion. To quote our friend, "I've been to a lot of barn weddings, yours was not a farm wedding, it was a fairytale." The flowers were stunning, the grass was lush, the pond lined with reeds and tall grassed, the sunset was out of a painting. There is a new patio in the larger pavilion which we used as our dance floor, so our guests danced the night away under the stars. The photography team Suzuran has stunning pictures of Meadow Ridge across several seasons! Communication/Planning: Seamless communication with the team, Seneca was always easy to reach and responsive, answering our infinity questions meticulously and graciously adjusting her plans when we had to change ours. Service: So thoughtful and caring, we and our guests were blown away! For instance, the bartenders kept track of what drinks we had as the bride and the groom and came to find us with refills. One of the servers brought over tissues when my parents and I started crying before walking down the aisle. As we mentioned, the integration of elements of Indian culture was phenomenal--Seneca was receptive from our first conversation and worked hard to make our hopes a reality. Having our wedding at Meadow Ridge was an absolute privilege and the success of the day is fully reflective of the incredible team we got to work with--we are just so grateful!

Hi! My name is Ciara and photography has always been a passion of mine. Ever since I can remember, I've had a camera in my hand. Something about capturing beautiful moments for others, brings light to my soul! In my spare time, I love to camp, cook and spend time with my husband and son. My family is a very big part of my life so I also enjoy getting together with everyone & making memories of my own. I would love if you considered me to be a part of your special day! Thank you & hope to see you soon!

We are beyond obsessed with our engagement and wedding photos! They worked together so seamlessly on our wedding day and captured every moment from every angle. Not only are they incredibly talented, but they made us feel comfortable and relaxed the entire time. Ciara could sense my nerves before the ceremony and helped calm my nerves. We will cherish these photos forever. And her editing style is absolutely beautiful. The colors are vibrant yet subtle , rich and full of life without ever feeling overdone. Everything looks natural, timeless, and perfectly balanced. The tones enhance every photo in the most stunning way while still keeping the true feel of the day. Highly recommend Ciara’s forever photos!

I have been lucky enough to have Emily do my makeup for multiple weddings the past few years. Compared to any other makeup I have ever had done, Emily’s work is by far the best. I gave her direction that I would like a natural/pretty look that still made me feel like myself and she did exactly that. I wish she could do my makeup everyday! She is also very calming and pleasant to be around and made it a great experience. I highly recommend her to everyone.

My goal is to capture beautiful images that bring you back to the special moments of your wedding day. Whether it be a small giggle, sweet kiss or the moment you say “I do” we will have it all documented. I can’t wait to tell your love story.

Tina made our day so special!! Not only did she take the best photos she laid out my timeline perfectly and was so helpful keeping everything on track! I’m not super comfortable in front of the camera but Tina guided us so perfectly and was supportive the entire time! She got the best candid moments & that makes looking back on our photos that much better! Our photos turned out perfect, she captured everything so beautifully!

I've known I wanted to be a photographer since middle school. Then I fell in love with love and still get emotional at each wedding I photograph. I'm an extroverted introvert that loves music, food and talking about random facts.

From the moment we first spoke with Paige, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Quite literally, she was the very first wedding vendor of any sort that we met! Her communication style was open, accommodating, and amazing. The quality of Paige's work is simply beautiful, and her services were incredibly adaptable to us and worked within our budget without any stress. On our wedding day, Paige felt like one of the family and did an amazing job capturing all of our best moments, from the ceremony to the reception. Her creative ideas for photos of my husband and I doing what we love were spot on, and the final images are truly breathtaking. From our engagement session to the very last moment of our wedding, Paige was the perfect photographer to document our special day.
