Question

WHAT TYPE OF GUIDELINES AND RESTRICTIONS ARE IN PLACE IN LIGHT OF COVID-19?

Answer

The Old Courthouse is a government building and we will be following the Ohio Department of Health guidelines for COVID and Banquet facilities. Guests will have their temperature taken and are required to wear a mask upon entry. Please note that we won’t be supplying masks, so you will need to provide your own. We are expecting 100-150 guests. The venue fits 300-400 and with the expansive rotunda and multi-story ceilings, there will be plenty of space indoors. Seating is limited to 8 people per table with adequate spacing of tables 6 feet apart. There will be no shared items (salad dressing boats, salt/pepper) on the table, and dishes will be individually served to respective guests. All servers will be required to wear masks and gloves throughout the event. Dancing is currently allowed at our wedding! If you have any hesitations, please know that we will have plenty of entertainment at the event with or without dancing! If any changes occur, we will post updates within this FAQ.
