Nazareth Hall 

5.0

  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $5,000

Nazareth Hall is known throughout the region as a banquet and wedding facility, but it’s the rich history and lush setting that draws people here. Built in 1927 as an all-boy Catholic boarding school. It eventually evolved into a renowned military school for boys. Throughout its history the school stayed true to its Catholic roots and the nuns who served and taught here. Operating until 1982 the stories written within its walls are still told today. Re-emerging with a new mission and purpose in April of 1991, Nazareth Hall was reborn. It is in this picturesque place, reminiscent of castles of old, that brides come to be married and celebrate with family and friends in grand ballrooms. The classrooms and meeting spaces offer the perfect vintage background for business training sessions, and the manicured lawns have been host to numerous parties and festivities.

Venue considerations

Though I'm not a bride/couple that has utilized the Civic Center as a venue, I can offer a different perspective on the space. I'm a videographer, and frequently film at the Lima Civic Center. The team there has always been very professional and treated me with courtesy. They've helped out when needed (like when a counterpart needed a quiet place to deal with a medical issue). They make me feel like I'm part of their team when I'm there. I've seen how they interact with wedding patrons and families, and I would not hesitate to recommend the Civic Center to couples. I also think it's very neat and convenient to have the hotel attached. I've seen weddings in several different spaces within the building, including the main convention hall, the theater, and the lobby with tremendous natural light. In short, as a vendor I've been very pleased with my experiences at the Lima Civic Center. I frequently encourage my friends and family to inquire with the venue about having their wedding celebrations there.

We got married on October 31st, 2020, and while planning a wedding that year was full of ups and downs and confusions for a multitude of other reasons, All Occasions was a beacon of reliability and clear communication that we were very grateful for. Everything tasted great, many of my guests complimented the meal, and I really love how the table décor looked. As our wedding was Halloween themed, I invited the staff to dress up, and I was happy to see that they did and also had a good time. Friendly, Skilled, and Flexible, I would absolutely recommend All Occasions Catering to anyone planning an event or wedding. My wedding reception was one of the best nights of my life, and I am thankful for the role they played in it.

I had a fantastic experience working with the Meeker’s Venue team. They were willing to accommodate my requests for things like a slideshow in place of a father daughter dance, or having my friend play the music for our first dance live. We used their decor, and they had a great selection for the simple, green and brass theme I was looking for. They were friendly, timely, didn’t bother us with anything the night of and made sure to go through our family and friends instead. The venue itself, a beautiful brick church, is so cute and provided a great backdrop for all of our photos. We easily fit our wedding of around 130 people in the space. And their price fit well into our budget. I had a great time in the meetings leading up to our wedding, and an awesome party the day of. Highly recommend.
