Willow Haven Event Center was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. Erica's communication was quick and resourceful, she was attentive and cooperative throughout the entire planning process. The quality of the wedding barn was truly romantic, captivating, and gorgeous - Duane and Kitty have transformed the venue into a space that felt straight out of a fairytale. Noah made sure all the events of the day flowed seamlessly, the staff were incredibly accommodating of our needs, and ensured the entire experience was pleasant for us and our guests.

Our family enjoyed one of the best events of our lives at the Barn of Hidden Valley as we gathered for a family reunion. Next up - We are not newlyweds but planning to celebrate 50 years of marriage with family and friends by renewing vows at the Barn of Hidden Valley. It will be the greatest event next to the first time we said "I Do". The setting is everything you could hope for. Picturesque, quiet, serene. So much room both inside and outdoors to celebrate any function you could imagine. It was obvious on our first visit that the hosts at the Barn have thought of everything to make your event unforgettable. From the interior decor to the outdoors landscape and natural setting, it is perfect, especially for weddings. There are so many areas to take photos that are a photographer's dream. The Barn can be decorated to suit your taste, or, it is beautiful on its own with a warm, inviting environment. The amenities are accommodating, a wonderful kitchen, bride and groom dressing rooms, comfortable seating areas, outdoor areas are nature's best. Can you picture a stream meandering nearby with a bridge that is perfect for photo snaps. Our family highly recommends the Barn at Hidden Valley for weddings, family reunions, corporate events. Anything you can imagine for groups to gather and enjoy.

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!
