Our family enjoyed one of the best events of our lives at the Barn of Hidden Valley as we gathered for a family reunion. Next up - We are not newlyweds but planning to celebrate 50 years of marriage with family and friends by renewing vows at the Barn of Hidden Valley. It will be the greatest event next to the first time we said "I Do". The setting is everything you could hope for. Picturesque, quiet, serene. So much room both inside and outdoors to celebrate any function you could imagine. It was obvious on our first visit that the hosts at the Barn have thought of everything to make your event unforgettable. From the interior decor to the outdoors landscape and natural setting, it is perfect, especially for weddings. There are so many areas to take photos that are a photographer's dream. The Barn can be decorated to suit your taste, or, it is beautiful on its own with a warm, inviting environment. The amenities are accommodating, a wonderful kitchen, bride and groom dressing rooms, comfortable seating areas, outdoor areas are nature's best. Can you picture a stream meandering nearby with a bridge that is perfect for photo snaps. Our family highly recommends the Barn at Hidden Valley for weddings, family reunions, corporate events. Anything you can imagine for groups to gather and enjoy.

So many of our guests said that our August 3 2024 wedding was one of the most beautiful that they’ve ever been to, and that was definitely because of the Brook! Besides the beautiful setting and many amenities, the Brook team is some of the best of the best. It is a true family business. They were so responsive throughout the entire process, answering any and all questions we had across almost 2 years of wedding planning. During the weekend we were married, we truly could enjoy ourselves because the Brook’s team had everything covered.

We were extremely happy with our wedding at Oak Grove! The venue is gorgeous for photos and set up perfectly for a seamless flow throughout the evening. The greenhouse was intimate and unique for the ceremony and the reception is stunning as well. Our wedding coordinator, Sydney, was phenomenal to work with and was great about working with our vendors to ensure our night was seamless! All other Jorgensen vendors (catering, florals, etc.) were responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. Many of our guests stated that the food was the best wedding food they have ever tasted and our florals were beautiful and set up exactly as we discussed. Sydney, the servers, bartenders, and all other event staff did a fantastic job of hosting our guests and bringing our wedding vision to fruition. We had a great experience at the Oak Grove venue and are grateful to have worked with such a kind and hard working team!

We love working with couples at Nationwide Hotel for several reasons. First, it is logistically so much easier for couples to have everything taking place in one location. They can stay overnight the night before, get ready there, ceremony, photos, reception, and then afterward all of their guests can stay right there. This means there is no need to coordinate guest transportation, off-site hotels, bridal party transportation for photos, or have an elongated break for photography after the ceremony since it is much faster to do on site. Second, there are plenty of outdoor spaces for couples or bridal party photos if it rains! This is a huge advantage that not all venues have and rain is a real concern for an Ohio wedding. Third, there is a variety of spots on the property for doing group or couples photos. You can have the look of brick, green lawn, the beautiful pergola with all the greenery, the iconic covered walkway, some flowers, a tree-lined area where the leaves change colors SO perfectly in the Fall, and of course the fountain! By the way, the pond is amazing for sunset photos! We have been at Nationwide many times as photographers and always had a great experience. The food was always hot and served on schedule, and their staff is so friendly and genuinely wants to create the best experience for their guests. You cannot go wrong with any of their event spaces!
