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.

We pride ourselves in solving those small problems too....3 year old flower girl having a meltdown? we can help with that! Need a few powertools to set up the incredible arbor you plan to use?

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!

We had a lovely stay at Plaz Vilka for our college couples-only reunion. We had a mix of couples and singles and the cottages gave us flexibility for people to choose their sleeping arrangements and allowed for privacy. The property also had plenty of spaces to gather together as a large group which was the goal! We even did a special outdoor dinner event with a private chef which was the highlight of the weekend. The chef had multiple kitchen options to prepare and serve dinner at the property with plenty of supplies. We had the best weekend complete with beautiful sunsets!

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Sarah and Arlington Acres! Everyone asked why we picked a venue “out of town” we’re from Toledo and picked a venue in Tiffin. Simply put, Sarah was amazing from the first message to our wedding night. The venue is absolutely STUNNING and the ability to use every area for something different was a big selling point for us. We got married in the fall and the colors were just amazing! Sarah was beyond helpful and accommodating throughout the whole process. You won’t regret having your wedding here!!

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.

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.

Our company, Book That DJ, has DJ’ed hundreds of weddings at Nazareth. It is by far our favorite hall!

Awarded Best of Zola
I want to start by saying I was not at all looking for a “barn” or a “rustic” place to get married. The Barn at Walnut Creek is so much more though... the space is so versatile that you can really make it more modern inside, or stick with a rustic vibe. It’s such a beautiful venue, so we were excited when we found out how reasonable the pricing is—much lower than some of the other upscale venues in the area. The bridal suite was amazing to use on the day of the wedding! The bar space was perfect, and the restrooms are really nice too. All of our guests loved the space and had a great experience overall! The owner was wonderful to work with—she was so helpful throughout the entire planning process! I recommend this venue highly!
