Castalia Farms is a countryside wedding venue situated in Castalia, OH. This waterfront farm and barn venue exudes traditional rustic charm and is home to adorable farm animals. Modern elements and elegantly appointed accents blend perfectly with this historic estate’s original essence. The original barn at Castalia Farms dates back to the nineteenth century and is home to both indoor and outdoor event spaces. There are several scenic ceremony sites on the grounds to choose from, with lake views, rolling fields, and willow trees providing a romantic backdrop. The barn and pavilion are transformed for evening receptions, where you are free to decorate according to your theme and vision. You are free to select outside vendors of your choice for catering, decor, entertainment, and more. Overnight accommodations ensure that wedding parties enjoy a restful night before the pre-ceremony preparations begin in private rooms featuring plush furnishings and ample space.

I cannot think of a nicer and more private venue I had visited before deciding to do my reception here. So big a place for guests to roam. Neat buildings with interesting history. Really diverse property that just makes it an intriguing place to be.

Fremont, OH
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,200

Elegant, relaxed and intimate. This incredible property was built in 1929 and remains a shining example of Colonial Revival architecture. We have acres of grounds to spread out and enjoy, endless photo ops, wonderful local vendor relationships and a variety of weekend accommodations for the wedding party or family. We allow you an entire weekend of time on the property to set up and soak it in. An incredible bridal suite, a separate but connected suite for hair and makeup, tons of parking on site, multiple ceremony sites and no additional cost for setup or clean up time help to put you and yours at ease on a very busy weekend! 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? No problem! Napkins, bandaids, safety pins, extension cords, ladders, light bulbs, extra tables, garbage bags, glue gun....we got you!! We love making your wedding amazing!

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 can’t say enough wonderful things about Bloom & Bower! From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the venue’s stunning beauty. The real highlight, however, was the incredible team behind it. The owners and staff are some of the most humble, caring, and personable people you’ll ever meet. Margaret, who officiated our wedding, was phenomenal! She guided us through every step of the planning process, making it so easy to choose décor from their amazing closet full of options. Seriously, the selection is jaw-dropping! She also provided invaluable recommendations for vendors, checking in regularly to ensure we felt supported and confident. When unexpected rain threatened our outdoor plans, the staff jumped into action, setting up a tent at the last minute. Their commitment to making our day perfect was evident throughout. We couldn't feel more grateful. After the festivities, we enjoyed a cozy night at the bed and breakfast on-site, complete with a delicious breakfast catered just for us the next morning. The staff setup and teardown for you. This meant we could truly relax and enjoy every moment of our day, with zero stress! Thank you, Bloom & Bower, for making our wedding day beautiful and unforgettable! We can’t wait to return for our anniversary celebration!

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!!

Nazareth Hall 

5.0

Grand Rapids, OH
  • 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we were looking for a venue, I immediately fell in love with the look and feel of Nazareth Hall. It is a beautiful place that allows for so much diversity in decor/theme. Not only was Nazareth beautiful, but the staff was absolutely wonderful! They worked with us to ensure that we had exactly what we wanted on our wedding day. There was never a time that I felt stressed during our wedding planning because our coordinator at Nazareth helped us through each step! She always ensured that we had specific things booked by certain times in our planning. The amazing staff didn’t end with our wedding planner/coordinator, the waitstaff and day of coordinator were also amazing! I never felt like I was forced to pay for things we didn’t need and the food was amazing! Nazareth Hall is 1000% the best wedding venue in the area! We have had nothing but positive experiences here!
