Huge thank you to the entire staff of the Makoy, who particularly Matt, Erin and Adrian who made sure that our wedding went smoothly and everything was perfect. Everyone was so nice and helpful. It was so appreciated when there are so many things to keep in mind and so many tasks to cross off your list. They made everything so much easier! The way everything came together looked absolutely wonderful and exceeded our expectations by far. The decor was done so beautifully and we were very impressed. The food was amazing, the bartender was great and super friendly and every single guest made comments to me about how wonderful the event was and how nice the venue was. We could not be any happier with our decision to get married at the Makoy. It was absolutely perfect!!!

Le Meridien Columbus, The Joseph

Weddings at The Joseph inspire, with stylish touches and romantic details sprinkled throughout every moment of your day. Our wedding planners will celebrate your unique ideas and support your creative vision, working with you to curate the sights, sounds, flavours and delightful experiences that will make your event truly memorable for you and your guests.

I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with the Le Meridien event team. I hosted a bridal shower for my daughter at the hotel in July and it was quite simply amazing. The level of care in the detailed preparation and the day of staff and their flawless execution were phenomenal. I decided to go with a six-course tasting menu and wine pairing which is a bit out of the box for a bridal shower and on complicated side for an event. The team didn’t miss a beat, they listened to my general vision for the event, and coordinated with the chef to come up with spectacular menu that just wowed everyone. The day of staff was remarkable. They delivered the courses and wine pairings to our group of 30 with such precision and attentiveness. Thank you, Le Meriden, for a most excellent experience. My daughter, all the guests, and myself as the host, could not have had a more lovely afternoon

Established in October of 2017, Pretentious is the first brewery in Columbus to specialize exclusively in barrel-aged sour ales. Our extensive knowledge of the symbiotic relationship between beer and wood results in consistent, quality sours. By manufacturing a wide range of beer along the sour spectrum, our consumers can ease their way into this unique style. Our goal is to produce award-winning sours that change people’s perspectives regarding craft beer. Our taproom is the perfect intimate setting for craft beer enthusiasts, sour savants, and anyone looking for that rustic and industrial look for their wedding.

This place has a beautiful rustic feel, bar games, and just all around great atmosphere. We didn't even decorate anything! They had plenty of tables with nice black covers to make them more upscale. The murals bring so much life into the room. I had so many compliments on the space! Josh was very easy to work with throughout the planning process! The drinks were delicious, the staff was friendly, helpful, and accommodating! I would choose this place all over again in a heartbeat.

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.

Zurie Studio 

5.0

COLUMBUS, OH
  • Up to 35 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $600

Welcome to Zurie, a hidden gem, a sunshine filled studio space. A clean, open intimate area with tall ceilings — a blank canvas to make your own. The space holds up to 35 people comfortably and is perfect for smaller, more authentic gatherings. *PERKS* include south-facing windows for great natural light all day, air conditioning & heat, near free and convenient parking, kitchenette sink & mini fridge, wifi & bluetooth, speaker furniture & backdrops, loading dock for any large items, Rentable Chairs and tables

I hear a lot of my brides who elope wanting a beautiful space to say I do, but being limited to extreme venue prices when they only have a hand full of people. This is the perfect spot for those brides, they get a space where they can still make it feel special, that is tailored to a intimate amount of guests, without having to pay out a crap ton of money. I have seen bridal showers and rehearsal dinners here as well, great space for your cozy personal bride.
