The communication with Snow Hill Country Club was amazing. Hunter, the event coordinator, was on top of everything and reached out with reminders of dates I needed to get her information. What a wonderful lady to work with! I loved this venue space - it was the perfect size for my smaller wedding of 65 guests, providing enough space for everyone without feeling too big. The staff at Snow Hill Country Club did everything, from cooking to cleaning up, and Hunter was hands-on throughout the entire day. I really don't think we could have done it without her. The only thing we had to provide were the centerpieces. Every staff member I interacted with at Snow Hill Country Club was very nice and helpful, and Hunter truly made our special day go great.

We are the Boswell family. Wolf Run Acres is concept that came about after hosting our daughters weddings and struggling to find the country setting they wanted. After hosting one on this site under a tent we rented, we decided this is a beautiful setting for a wedding venue. We wanted to give our guests a beautiful dream country wedding, but design it to be more industrial and modern and less rustic than comparable venues. Our hope is to give each couple, a unique, beautiful setting while ensuring they have the wedding of their dreams. We work with each couple from the time we meet them through their day, making sure we meet all their needs and coordinating with their vendors to ensure they have as stress free and enjoyable day as possible.

Wolf Run Acres was an absolute dream for our wedding day. Kim, the owner, was so kind and easy to work with throughout the entire process. Her communication was always prompt and she was incredibly flexible in helping us plan our special day. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with decor that was exactly what we had envisioned. Everything was ready to go when I arrived and the day went off perfectly with Kim's help. All of our guests loved taking photos around the gorgeous property. We couldn't have asked for better value or a more wonderful experience at Wolf Run Acres!

I do not think that I could say enough good things about this place and about this venue. First, Lauren is one of the best humans on this planet and I hope every bride has someone like her if they are planning on doing all of the planning themselves. I chose the package Lauren offers where I got to have her as the "Day of Coordinator" and she was on top of EVERYTHING. Any question, any idea, and every anxiety I had over this past year about this day, I would even go to her. She would help talk me through everything I needed and made sure any of my extra ideas that she could arrange for me prior to the day of, she did. I think there is a responsibility on every brides end, to have a good understanding at what a venue has to offer when choosing one. There is also a responsibility for a bride to ask questions and make sure everyone is on the same page to make the day perfect. You cannot assume anything. If you are looking for a place that has great staff, the prettiest view and everything in between- I would highly recommend Bell Manor. My wedding day was better than I could have ever imagined, and I truly felt like I made a great friend in the process. Thank you again Lauren and Bell Manor! Love, Adam and Tiffany

Sunset Landing was an amazing beautiful venue. It is the perfect venue for a summer wedding with their indoor/outdoor venue options. Their outdoor ceremony spot was flawless and gave off such Twilight Wedding Vibes. There are cute farm animals, a pond with a fountain, lots of parking, a playground on site for the little ones, bridal and bachelor suites, and a golf cart to take guest to the outdoor ceremony area. The venue is Pet Friendly as long as your dog is leashed. Which was amazing because we couldn’t imagine our day without our dog Billy by our side. It’s a family owned venue with people who make you feel like family. Not to mention Michelle, the owner of the venue, is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, especially during wedding planning. She went above and beyond to help me feel comfortable, understood, and beautiful. I’m a military spouse so everything was very last minute and she not only helped me with different ideas for the wedding but also was very flexible when it came to scheduling. She also has some decor that she rents out to you for a really good price. She was such a relief the day of the wedding amid all the chaos. She helped decorate, set out food, get everyone in line, and made sure everything looked perfect. I appreciate her so much! Her kindness and compassion that she extended to me never went unnoticed and truly helped me during such a stressful time. I highly recommend this venue. Once again thank you Michelle for everything!

Darby House was a beautiful property to host our wedding. While their communication style was a bit slow, with emails typically taking 3-5 days to respond, the venue itself was perfect. My wedding coordinator, who was different than originally planned, was absolutely fantastic and made everything smooth and enjoyable. I never had to worry about a thing on our wedding day. The only downside was that I accidentally left a locket of my deceased brother on my bouquet at the venue, and when I emailed both my original coordinator and the florist provided by Darby House, I did not receive a response. Overall, though, Darby House provided a wonderful backdrop for our special day.

In 2016, Cedar Grove’s owners, Kevin and Julie Claus, were sitting on the porch of Stillwater Lodge with some friends, gazing upon their 65-acre property. With 6 cabins and 2 lodges running smoothly, it was time to start planning for their next adventure. They talked about their 3 children growing up on the property, and reminisced on how so many milestones were celebrated. With all their kids growing up, they talked about them finding love and how wonderful it would be to see them married on the property where they shared so many memories. That was the day the dream began! Kevin quickly grabbed a napkin and feverishly started scribbling sketches of a large lodge that could hold all of their friends and family, celebrating the futures of their children. In true Claus fashion, they did not let this vision pass them by, and got to working on the lodge right away.

We recently held our vow renewal at Graystone Wine Cellar and couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. The venue was beautiful and turned out exactly like we had imagined. The food was amazing and all of our guests loved it, especially the pecan chicken. Working with Brian and all of the staff was so easy and everyone was so kind and helpful. Brian is great at communicating and making sure everything will be just as you want it to be. Graystone is a fantastic venue to work with and perfect if you are looking for a unique and intimate space. I highly recommend checking it out for your event.

Had my daughters wedding here last summer and it was fantastic. We loved that we could bring in our own catering company. They took care of the bar which was so nice and stress free. We paid to have the staff clean up so we didn't have to worry about it at the end of the night. The property is so nice, quiet and just overall amazing!

Our wedding at HLHC was gorgeous. Everything flowed nicely in that space. They have excellent staff who were all so helpful in planning the perfect day. They were flexible and easy to plan with out-of-state, and they were accommodating for me to visit and see the new renovations. Kate, our day-of coordinator, did an excellent job to make sure everything went smoothly. The catering and bartending services were fantastic! I'm still getting compliments on the cocktails, haha.

The Boathouse was the perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. The ceremony on the deck overlooking the rivers with downtown Columbus as a backdrop was an incredible setting! For the reception, the floor to ceiling windows in the Olentangy Room displayed a similar view with the added feature of an illuminated downtown in the evening. The management staff , Edward and Kelsey were wonderful. They were easy to communicate with and addressed all questions and any concerns I had. The staff working the event were fabulous too. They were all very friendly and personable and really helped make this anxious mother feel things were in good hands. Thank you all for your hard work Edward, Kelsey, TT, Kevina, Brandy, Maya and David. Also, I have to mention that the food was amazing! Salmon and steak were served. The salmon and accompanying sauce were so favorable and the beef was the most tender I’ve had since dining at my favorite steak restaurant in Texas. It honestly was the most delicious food I’ve ever had at a wedding. I definitely am looking forward to dining in the restaurant portion in the future. I believe the bride and groom and all guests felt it was an elegant, yet unpretentious, relaxed atmosphere. Perhaps a bit biased, but my husband said it was the most enjoyable wedding he had ever been to.
