Chassey was awesome!! She was very kind and sweet. My husband and I booked the venue/pavilion 21 months prior to wedding date sight unseen based off her personality, customer service, pictures, cost and the fact that I wanted a beach wedding in Ohio. The months and days before the wedding, if we had any questions, comments or concerns, she responded in a reasonable amount of time. We went to visit the venue a year before the actual wedding (5/27/2024) so that we could get a visual of the area. The day of the wedding, Chassey and her team were very helpful, kind and courteous to myself, family, and friends. They helped us decorate the venue although we brought our own decorations. Everything was beautiful and ready before the start of the wedding. They made us feel very comfortable. They went above and beyond our expectations. We (family and friends included) will definitely be back to visit for vacation.

Catering off-site events can be difficult, but Jeanne Fleming made it a breeze. We, as caterers, were able to communicate easily with her from when the wedding planning began through the day and evening of the event. We were able to work together in a way that gave the bride and groom nothing to worry about on their special day. I have been recommending The Christy House after discovering how great they are to work with!

My husband and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at Oakwood Lane Weddings on November 9th and it was the PERFECT day! The property is stunning, and the owners, Amanda and Jesh, are so welcoming, kind, helpful, and overall just the most incredible people. Amanda was always checking in with us from the time we first visited the venue until we were cleaning up the morning after the ceremony and helped us every step of the way. She kept us up to date on any offerings they had available and was quick to offer additional services if she felt it would make the day better. We cannot recommend this venue enough and are so excited for other couples to experience the kindness of Amanda and Jesh and the beauty of the property. We can't thank them enough for all they did to make our day so special.

If you are looking for a venue that is not only beautiful, but will make all of your dreams come true, look no further. I would give Bloom and Bower a 10 out of 5 if I could. The value of the venue is extraordinary. It was so wonderful getting to sleep on site at the venue since it is a bed and breakfast, we even had our whole bridal party stay on site and had our rehearsal dinner there. It was so great to not have to leave the property all weekend and not worry about forgetting anything because it was all right there. The greatest part of this venue is the owners themselves. Margaret basically acts as a day-of coordinator and goes above and beyond to make sure that everything is exactly how you envisioned. She fixes any problems that arise and if I had a crazy idea her response was always, "let's make it happen." Margaret worked wonderfully with all of our other vendors as well. She called each vendor the week before the wedding to make sure everything was ready to go. She also had so much good advice for life and marriage. The venue also had staff that set everything up and tore everything down, which means our bridal party and family got to enjoy themselves. The staff was so kind and helpful and made everything look exactly like my vision. I didn't even have to hire a florist because Margaret and her staff built all of our centerpieces and ceremony florals from their stock of florals. When you book with Bloom and Bower you also have access to a HUGE (and I mean huge) number of decorations that Margaret has curated, meaning you can spend your money on other aspects of the big day. The communication with the venue was excellent. They always got back to me in a super timely fashion and answered all of my questions (there were a lot of them). The professionalism of Margaret, Thomas and their staff really showed. And all of this didn't break our bank. The gardens are also absolutely gorgeous, as well as the gazebo and inside of the reception barn. I highly, highly recommend getting married here.

The Hotel at Oberlin ended up being the perfect place for our wedding. The location is close to pretty much anything you'll need for a wedding weekend. It's within a 1 minute walk to a variety of potential photograph locations (e.g. Hall Auditorium, Tappan Square...) as well as business (e.g. salons, restaurants, cafes) that can help your wedding day go smoothly. There are also a variety of potential ceremony locations within walking distance. We chose the Apollo Theater across the street. The team at the hotel, especially Lauren, was responsive and helpful every step of the way. The chef and Lauren worked together to accommodate a variety of dietary restrictions and requests (e.g. extra entree option, catered lunch and snacks...). They were also helpful with managing the linen rentals, room design, and room block reservations. Guests were charmed by Oberlin and gave us feedback that they enjoyed being able to slow and down and enjoy small town life during the weekend. Thank you Lauren and the rest of the team of making our weekend so special:) Photo: Photo credit Lindsey Beckwith, florals by Blossom.

Nazareth Hall provided the best value of any venue we considered, and we are so grateful for the role they played in making our wedding day perfect. We cannot recommend them highly enough.
