Awarded Best of Zola
We hosted our rehearsal dinner/welcome party at Bay Arts on 7/29/22. We had around 100 guests and worked with Chatty's (next door to Bay Arts) to plan a menu featuring charcuterie, pizza, desserts and, to top it off, a pig roast. The venue is like a secret garden - the outdoor patio, flowers and fairy lights make for an amazing backdrop. We had music playing throughout the night and the sound was great. Best of all, the people at Bay Arts were SO lovely and easy to work with. We worked with Kelly, who made the whole planning process incredibly easy for us. Although we were planning a party for 100 people, we didn't have a single stressful moment throughout the planning process. The night itself was a dream, and Bay Arts will forever hold a very special place in our hearts. HUGE thank you to Kelly, Matt & team!

The Lantern Room 

5.0

Cleveland, OH
  • Up to 120 guests
  • Starts at $10,000

The Lantern Room is an event space born of a passion for creative collaboration. As the 6th floor rooftop jewel of Church + State, it has been carefully designed with a modern aesthetic and infused with vintage and industrial accents to highlight the heritage of this historic neighborhood. As part of the Hingetown enclave of Ohio City, the Lantern Room has the coolest establishments nearby that guests will walk by and be able before and after your event.

Venue considerations

  • Does not have a dance floor
  • No in-house catering options
  • No dedicated areas for getting ready
We had our wedding at the Lantern Room hosted by Penthouse Events Cle at the end of August and the entire experience was amazing. The space itself is beautiful, but working with Ursula and her business partner Julio was just as much of a “feature” of this venue. We had so many compliments about our big day, and we both had a blast. I wish I could have bottled up the experience of the whole night to relive again and again. First, about the space: The Lantern Room, on the sixth floor of the Church State apartment building in Hingetown, is a unique, really cool space. We were immediately drawn to the large deck providing a gorgeous view of downtown and the lake. At night, it was magical! Our wedding fell over Labor Day weekend which of course includes the Cleveland air show. We were able to welcome our guests to a “pre” cocktail hour where they could watch the jet show from the deck before being seated for the ceremony. We got really lucky with gorgeous weather, a vivid sunset, and even fireworks from Progressive Field. The inside space is also quite striking, with lots of lovely natural light and options to customize. Between the deck and indoor event space, there were a lot of different options for guests to mingle and dance. There was even a fire pit out on the deck, and we rented a glow-in-the-dark corn hole board from our DJ, so there were options for guests who didn’t want to dance the whole time. The bar was outside on the deck and they were a blast as well! The drinks and the food from the caterer was all delicious - there were a lot of compliments about the signature cocktails and the dinners! We loved that the space was dog friendly as we wanted to include our dog in the special day! You can also rent a fully furnished private apartment on the floor right below the Lantern Room, which we utilized for getting ready. The apartment is spacious, elegantly modern, and so convenient. And between the event space and the apartment, there are so many great, distinctive backgrounds for photos. One small thing to note about the Lantern Room is that since it is in a residential building, the music/partying has to stop by 10pm. The vibes were so good, we felt like we could have stayed later, but it's good to end on a high note and we also arranged for a nice after-party at one of the great bars literally around the corner, so that was super convenient and a hit for our guests. Ursula was so communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. We were always impressed by how promptly she replied to emails. She helped form our vision and bring it to life based on just a few conversations and a Pinterest board that we put together. We truly felt supported in the lead-up and, most importantly, on the wedding day. It even came down to the little touches: for example, she helped come up with specialty cocktails that reflected our tastes well (including a bonus mocktail named for our dog!), put together menus that exactly matched the design of the other graphics I had made. She and Julio have great energy and clearly enjoy working together. The entire staff was so professional and our entire wedding day went smoothly. We were just so so pleased!

We had a fantastic experience hosting our wedding at the House of Blues Cleveland. The venue offers a unique, vintage vibe that perfectly matched the aesthetic we were going for. Haley and her team were communicative, direct, and thoughtful every step of the way. They made sure we understood all the details and helped us create a smooth, stress-free wedding day. The all-inclusive wedding package was a great value - it covered everything from decor to catering to extra rehearsal time before so we could practice our first dance. On the big day itself, Haley and staff were attentive without being overbearing. They made sure we wanted for nothing. The vintage, rock and roll atmosphere was full of warmth and joy. We highly recommend the House of Blues Cleveland for couples looking to celebrate their marriage in style!

We had our wedding here last week (2.24.24) and I cannot thank the staff enough. I knew when we started wedding planning that I wanted a warehouse vibe and Lake Affect Studios was the first place we actually went to look at and I fell in love. From the beautiful lighting fixtures, the bar, gorgeous wood floors, windows, private wedding party space and the separate ceremony area I knew I wanted to have my wedding and reception here. (Even the bathrooms took my breath away.) I loved that they offered tables and chairs and it allowed me to be creative with my diy vision. Throughout wedding planning, Amanda and Stefanie were so helpful in making my dreams come to life. On actual wedding day everything was absolutely flawless and I was blown away in every possible way. The bartenders were so nice and we got so many compliments on the service and how gorgeous the space was. I will recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for an alternative to the classic ballroom type wedding. It was everything I wanted and more. Thank you so much. - Rachel & Pete

Originally built in the early 1900s for luxury faucet manufacturing, the 22,000 square foot warehouse sat empty for decades. The creative potential of the location caught our eye, and in 2016, we went to work to renovate the building. As event vendors ourselves, we designed The Madison to be the best parts of every cool venue we’ve ever worked from Seattle to New York City and Chicago to the Caribbean. In 2018, we reopened the restored space The Madison. We quickly gained acclaim from the area’s top event planners, community collaborators, and even local professional athletes. As Northeast Ohio’s premier event venue, our mission is to cultivate human connection and life’s treasured moments. You’ll find it effortless to work with us and within the space so you can focus more on your goals – and your guests.

Being in the event industry ourselves, we knew finding a team of key partners to work with would be pivotal to success for our wedding. Anthony and Daryl at The Madison knocked it out of the park. We wanted a fun, unique and industrial-vibe venue and this venue provides all that and so much more. It is a blank canvas that truly allows you to turn it into whatever your vision may be. The service, ideas, and personal attention the team at The Madison give each event is incredible. From our first meeting with them, we knew they were the team for us to create a successful and memorable wedding. They offer a variety of bar package tiers to fit your budget and are able to accommodate custom / signature drinks for an additional personal touch. The bar staff they provide are true sweethearts. When it comes to load in / setup, they are there to not only help you, but are willing to accommodate anything and everything you may need. The venue offers a variety of different spaces to accommodate everything from a cocktail hour, ceremony, reception and outdoor spaces all at one venue. Truly, everything you could ask for. There are a handful of preferred caterers they work well with to provide anything you could need from a catering perspective. The venue is a blank slate, and with that, allows you to add your own creativity to develop the event you vision. Ample amount of available electric also allows for pretty much any level of production you are looking to host here. The venue is great, but - as mentioned above - it is the people who truly build your team. The two gentlemen who run this facility (Anthony and Daryl) are the ones behind the magic here. They honestly care and have your event’s best interest in mind. They are willing to step in and assist on anything needed and are truly team players when it comes to building your vendor team. Thank you to the two of you for making our wedding dreams come true. — Jeff & Cierra
