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

I've worked with the team at The Venue at Bogenrife Farm on several occasions including a comedy night and an OSU beat Michigan party and they never disappoint. The owners are incredibly attentive and responsive, making the coordination process smooth from start to finish. Their country setting is absolutely gorgeous, and what really sets them apart is how versatile their space is—the multi-use rooms adapt beautifully for ceremonies, receptions, and everything in between. Couples get so much value from the flexibility and stunning backdrop that this venue provides. I'd recommend them without hesitation to any vendor or couple looking for a venue that combines natural beauty with genuine hospitality.

We are so grateful to have found this wonderful, family-owned business to host our special day.

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.

  • Starts at $4,500

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.

The Haven was exactly what I was looking for in a venue! We decided to use The Haven because they had so many options for our ceremony location. We wanted an outdoor wedding, but Ohio weather is unpredictable, so we wanted some backup options too. The outdoor spaces are beautiful. We originally planned for the alcove with the paved path (which was great because it was accessible), but rain moved us to the covered patio which was still beautiful! We used the building to get ready in the bridal suite, and for dinner and dancing. The paved, lighted patio was perfect for our faux exit (we had planned to use it for cornhole but rain/snow had other plans). We used many items from The Haven's borrowed decor collection, which saved us time and money. The decorations were beautiful, and with some minor touches (we added white pumpkins) became just what my Pinterest vision board created in my mind! The catering company (The Feed) that The Haven connected me with was an excellent choice. The staff at The Haven managed to set up our taste testing, help arrange our menu, and helped make sure that everything with the caterer ran smoothly on our wedding day. The bar service at The Haven was also top-notch! All my guests (even the kids) enjoyed the beverage choices at the open bar. The fall mocktails were phenomenal! The staff at The Haven were knowledgeable and professional in all areas of wedding planning. The online planning tools helped organize things and keep everyone on the same page. We are so glad we chose The Haven for our wedding and highly recommend checking them out!

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.

We hosted our multi-day wedding weekend at the Renaissance (pool party rehearsal dinner, welcome party in the bar, ceremony on the rooftop and reception in the ballroom). Our coordinator Kelli was very responsive and professional along the way and available all weekend for support. The terrace has unbeatable views of downtown and the price is generally cheaper than comparable hotels in the area. Food was plated and brought out quickly, delicious. Hospitality suites were huge and had a private patio. Highly recommend for your wedding!

From the moment we inquired, Jamey provided immediate responses and was incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. The property itself is absolutely magical and romantic, with a vast variety of intimate to spread out options that allowed us to create the exact wedding experience we had been dreaming of. Jamey went above and beyond, even offering to move the bathrooms when I expressed concern about the placement. This attention to detail and commitment to making our day special was evident in every interaction. The property felt like it was made for us, and reading the notes in the guest book showed that Jamey has made countless other couples feel the same way. Incredible!
