Ariel Pearl Center

Cleveland, OH

  • Select services

The stunning Ariel Pearl Center, a hidden jewel in the heart of Old Brooklyn! Located in a beautiful historic 1923 bank building, it features marble columns and floors, bank vaults, stone walls, large arched windows under an intricate decorative plaster work ceiling with magnificent crystal chandeliers. This stunning historic building was built in 1923 as the Pearl Street Savings & Trust Bank, which was designed by the famous architects Hubbell and Benes, who also designed the Cleveland Museum of Art, West Side Market, City Club, Masonic Temple and other famous historic buildings. The first floor of the Ariel Pearl Center has been converted to a beautiful event center which includes the Grand Hall with Rotunda and Vault, Cocktail Room, and Fireplace Room.

I originally had a different venue which ended up shutting down which put me at a very stressful place. After meeting with Tracey I felt like not only was the venue gorgeous but my mind could be at ease because she was on my side. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed and never put aside. Once our special day arrived it was as smooth as could be, even with covid restrictions. They worked closely with the health department and all of the precautions were applied. I highly recommend to anyone especially if you want a venue with a unique and elegant look!!

The Lantern Room 

5.0

Cleveland, OH
  • Up to 120 guests
  • Starts at $10,000

The Lantern Room is an event space born of a passion for creative collaboration. As the 6th floor rooftop jewel of Church + State, it has been carefully designed with a modern aesthetic and infused with vintage and industrial accents to highlight the heritage of this historic neighborhood. As part of the Hingetown enclave of Ohio City, the Lantern Room has the coolest establishments nearby that guests will walk by and be able before and after your event.

Venue considerations

  • Does not have a dance floor
  • No in-house catering options
  • No dedicated areas for getting ready
We had our wedding at the Lantern Room hosted by Penthouse Events Cle at the end of August and the entire experience was amazing. The space itself is beautiful, but working with Ursula and her business partner Julio was just as much of a “feature” of this venue. We had so many compliments about our big day, and we both had a blast. I wish I could have bottled up the experience of the whole night to relive again and again. First, about the space: The Lantern Room, on the sixth floor of the Church State apartment building in Hingetown, is a unique, really cool space. We were immediately drawn to the large deck providing a gorgeous view of downtown and the lake. At night, it was magical! Our wedding fell over Labor Day weekend which of course includes the Cleveland air show. We were able to welcome our guests to a “pre” cocktail hour where they could watch the jet show from the deck before being seated for the ceremony. We got really lucky with gorgeous weather, a vivid sunset, and even fireworks from Progressive Field. The inside space is also quite striking, with lots of lovely natural light and options to customize. Between the deck and indoor event space, there were a lot of different options for guests to mingle and dance. There was even a fire pit out on the deck, and we rented a glow-in-the-dark corn hole board from our DJ, so there were options for guests who didn’t want to dance the whole time. The bar was outside on the deck and they were a blast as well! The drinks and the food from the caterer was all delicious - there were a lot of compliments about the signature cocktails and the dinners! We loved that the space was dog friendly as we wanted to include our dog in the special day! You can also rent a fully furnished private apartment on the floor right below the Lantern Room, which we utilized for getting ready. The apartment is spacious, elegantly modern, and so convenient. And between the event space and the apartment, there are so many great, distinctive backgrounds for photos. One small thing to note about the Lantern Room is that since it is in a residential building, the music/partying has to stop by 10pm. The vibes were so good, we felt like we could have stayed later, but it's good to end on a high note and we also arranged for a nice after-party at one of the great bars literally around the corner, so that was super convenient and a hit for our guests. Ursula was so communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. We were always impressed by how promptly she replied to emails. She helped form our vision and bring it to life based on just a few conversations and a Pinterest board that we put together. We truly felt supported in the lead-up and, most importantly, on the wedding day. It even came down to the little touches: for example, she helped come up with specialty cocktails that reflected our tastes well (including a bonus mocktail named for our dog!), put together menus that exactly matched the design of the other graphics I had made. She and Julio have great energy and clearly enjoy working together. The entire staff was so professional and our entire wedding day went smoothly. We were just so so pleased!

The all-inclusive wedding package was a great value - it covered everything from decor to catering to extra rehearsal time before so we could practice our first dance. On the big day itself, Haley and staff were attentive without being overbearing. They made sure we wanted for nothing. The vintage, rock and roll atmosphere was full of warmth and joy.

Leah is friendly and made the entire process stress free. From the menu selection to the order of the day, Leah helped us get everything in order. We did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all at Pinstripes. On our wedding day Leah and her team were super attentive and helped with everything. This team went above and beyond helping our guests (and us) and making sure everything was going great all day long. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. When we see guests who were at the wedding, we still hear about how wonderful the food was and how great the set-up was at Pinstripes. I will recommend them every time someone asks!

The Madison 

5.0

Cleveland, OH
  • Up to 600 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $8,500

Originally built in the early 1900s for luxury faucet manufacturing, the 22,000 square foot warehouse sat empty for decades. The creative potential of the location caught our eye, and in 2016, we went to work to renovate the building. As event vendors ourselves, we designed The Madison to be the best parts of every cool venue we’ve ever worked from Seattle to New York City and Chicago to the Caribbean. In 2018, we reopened the restored space The Madison. We quickly gained acclaim from the area’s top event planners, community collaborators, and even local professional athletes. As Northeast Ohio’s premier event venue, our mission is to cultivate human connection and life’s treasured moments. You’ll find it effortless to work with us and within the space so you can focus more on your goals – and your guests.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Classic, vintage atmosphere
  • Space for a large guest list
  • Multiple event spaces

Venue considerations

  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
  • Limited cleanup and setup services
  • Lighting and sound are not included

Being in the event industry ourselves, we knew finding a team of key partners to work with would be pivotal to success for our wedding. Anthony and Daryl at The Madison knocked it out of the park. We wanted a fun, unique and industrial-vibe venue and this venue provides all that and so much more. It is a blank canvas that truly allows you to turn it into whatever your vision may be. The service, ideas, and personal attention the team at The Madison give each event is incredible. From our first meeting with them, we knew they were the team for us to create a successful and memorable wedding. They offer a variety of bar package tiers to fit your budget and are able to accommodate custom / signature drinks for an additional personal touch. The bar staff they provide are true sweethearts. When it comes to load in / setup, they are there to not only help you, but are willing to accommodate anything and everything you may need. The venue offers a variety of different spaces to accommodate everything from a cocktail hour, ceremony, reception and outdoor spaces all at one venue. Truly, everything you could ask for. There are a handful of preferred caterers they work well with to provide anything you could need from a catering perspective. The venue is a blank slate, and with that, allows you to add your own creativity to develop the event you vision. Ample amount of available electric also allows for pretty much any level of production you are looking to host here. The venue is great, but - as mentioned above - it is the people who truly build your team. The two gentlemen who run this facility (Anthony and Daryl) are the ones behind the magic here. They honestly care and have your event’s best interest in mind. They are willing to step in and assist on anything needed and are truly team players when it comes to building your vendor team. Thank you to the two of you for making our wedding dreams come true. — Jeff & Cierra

The Lake Erie Building 

5.0

Lakewood, OH
  • Up to 349 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $5,000

Five fun facts about the Lake Erie Building: 1. We were originally built to be Templar Motors back in 1917. There were less than 3,000 of these cars ever manufactured and if you look carefully, you may even be able to spot one while in the event space! 2. Omni Lakewood purchased the building in 2005 and now manages the building, which has been divided into individual suites that are home to over 100 businesses. 3. The west parking lot where our dock is located used to be a test track for Templar Motors. 4. We host only one event per weekend and give our clients access beginning on Wednesday so they can bring in all their personal touches! We also only require cards and gifts go with them that night and everything else can stay giving you more time to spend with your new spouse! 5. We include a private parking lot and have a huge municipal lot across the street that's available to guests. (If you know of Lakewood, you know parking is a hot commodity)

Why you'll love this venue

  • Provides event staff
  • Accommodates more than 200 guests
  • Wheelchair accessible

Venue considerations

  • No built-in audiovisual options
  • Does not have a dance floor
  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists
Lake Erie Building is the perfect venue if you want to decorate your space exactly as you want it! Having early access to the space days before the wedding was worth its weight in gold. And the “bones” of the space are stunning. The venue coordinator, Hannah, was great to work with too. She gave us great recommendations for vendors and insight into the planning process. The reason for the 4 stars for the clarity of communication is because the contract had some inaccurate information, which I found annoying because I’m a “rules” person. But I can’t recommend this venue enough!!

The best perk couples get when they choose one of the Ariel centers is getting to work with one of their coordinators. All of them are knowledgeable, experienced and focused on creating the perfect wedding day for their clients.

Jen was spectacular and helped make everything we could have dreamed of a reality. We dropped all our stuff off the night before and let them do their stuff and it was perfect. We also held our rehearsal dinner here the night before and it was great. The food for both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding was spectacular! We heard so many great things about the venue and the food from all our guests. If you are thinking about touring and having your wedding here I can't recommend it enough!

We had a great private party at The Hall at St. James. Clay was great to work with and helped line up catering and a photographer. The space had plenty of outlets and allowed us "to make it our own" with color LED lights on the walls and taking advantage of their ceiling-mounted projectors to create a fun dance floor.

Hale Farm and Village was everything I could have dreamed of for our special day and more. The beautiful site was unique and every guest raved over the location. Even with the rain, it was stunning. Our wedding was on 9/28/24 so the property was open to the public during the day, but not very busy. We used the east side of the property and it was beyond picture perfect. The pavilion set the most perfect vibes for our reception, and the area behind the Herrick House was a dream come true for our ceremony. My husband and I did a first look and private vows in front of the yellow house, and were able to take photos on the entire property. It was MAGICAL to say the least. But this review is mostly for the AMAZING Miss Dotty. About two months before my wedding, I was notified that the person I had been in contact with and had been planning with was no longer with HF. Obviously, I was stressed and nervous to say the least. But once Dotty was brought on, and after one meeting with her my fears subsided. This amazing person did EVERYTHING in her power to help me achieve the wedding of my dreams. She came up with solutions to any issues, she offered ideas and thoughts for any question I had. This woman worked her butt off the day of my wedding!! With the change in staffing, and promises made from the prior, Dotty went above and beyond to make things happen. She also had a second wedding on the west side of the property the same day, and Dotty seemed to always be around when I needed something. When my ceremony was 45 minutes late... no fault of HF or Dotty (family drama)... and I was on the verge of a breakdown, Dotty came over to me and asked "you want to hear a funny story?" and continued to tell me something funny to distract me, and make me laugh. She made sure I wasn't too shiny from the stress sweat, and helped get things back on track. At one point she had the help of a young man named Alex (I hope that's right) who was just as kind and helpful as she was. Both helped with set up, and tear down. Alex helped fluff my dress before I walked at the ceremony as Dotty was closing and opening the entrance doors for me. They both seemed to make sure that everything could go as best as it could. I know for a fact this day would not have happened, and would not have been as amazing as it was, if not for Dotty. She is a superhero. Hale Farm and Village was truly a dream come true venue for us and our special day. But Dotty was a rock star and I am forever grateful for her, her hard work, and her kindness from the moment I met her. Thank you!!!
