Kaila and Libby were were excellent in helping me decide how to set up the venue, what the timing should be for each portion of the wedding and making sure that all the little details were attended to. Their response time to my questions over the year (yes, I reserved the venue over a year ahead of time) was within a day; very good! On the day of the wedding, Kaila was with me the whole way, making sure that everything was where it needed to be. She also coordinated well with my florist, caterer and DJ. My friends and family commented on how lovely the ceremony and reception flowed using various sections of the Event Center for various events, i.e. the ceremony on the outside porch, the inside/outside bar area for appetizers/drinks, the remainder of the building for dinner and dancing.

Bloomrose Hall was just what we were looking for for our wedding. The old church building is so cool and looked beautiful in our photos! I’m so happy that this venue was affordable and also allowed us to choose whichever vendors that we wanted. So many other places we looked at required you to use certain services or companies, but we didn’t like being forced to use certain caterers or decorators. We had a tight budget for our wedding and wanted to DIY a few aspects, like flowers and decor. We were so happy that they were so nice and easy to work with at Bloomrose Hall and gave us the freedom to create the wedding that we envisioned.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first contacted The MAiZE at Little Darby Creek, we were impressed by their patient, flexible, and informative communication style. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with a unique and spacious layout that provided ample room for our wedding celebration. One of the standout moments was when the staff personally escorted my 91-year-old grandmother to the ceremony and back to the reception, ensuring she was comfortable and taken care of. They also recommended an excellent DJ. The kids (and adults!) had a wonderful time exploring the slides and taking the wagon ride over to the ceremony site. We are so grateful to the team at The MAiZE for helping make our special day truly unforgettable.

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 $2,000

Karrikin Spirits Company is a Cincinnati based craft distillery and event space in Fairfax, committed to exploring our love of flavors with the community. By definition, karrikins are the elements found in the smoke from a forest fire that trigger the regeneration of that forest. In the centuries since Whiskey Hollow was settled, those karrikins have been at work to bring distilling back to this very location on Cincinnati’s east side. In Spring of 2017, seven founding members with experience in brewing & distilling, woodworking, design, and more came together to purchase a building formerly occupied by Swallen’s and later, DnD Metal to start a journey of flavor and fire. From there, Karrikin Spirits Company was formed — a full-service, grain to glass distillery producing handcrafted spirits, sparkling spirits, non-alcoholic sodas, and beer. If you are interested in booking with us, please contact us directly. Details on how to reach us is found on our website.
