Willow Haven Event Center was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. Erica's communication was quick and resourceful, she was attentive and cooperative throughout the entire planning process. The quality of the wedding barn was truly romantic, captivating, and gorgeous - Duane and Kitty have transformed the venue into a space that felt straight out of a fairytale. Noah made sure all the events of the day flowed seamlessly, the staff were incredibly accommodating of our needs, and ensured the entire experience was pleasant for us and our guests.

The Boltes, who own and operate Arlington Acres, are phenomenal to work with. We can’t say enough good about our experience. Not only is their venue STUNNING, but it boasts an exceptional rain plan that allows you to leave your reception space untouched and still have plenty of room for guests to mingle for cocktail hour. Arlington Acres has two beautiful suites for the bridal party to get ready in, two equally gorgeous areas to host reception events, and a naturally beautiful outdoor ceremony space. Not to mention, there are so many great locations for photos that your photographer will love! Arlington Acres provides monthly open houses for booked couples so that you can do walk throughs with family, friends, and vendors, test decor, practice walk throughs, ask questions, and even do photo sessions. Sarah even went as far as to help us schedule a private time to do our engagement shoot on their property. We also booked majority of our vendors through the recommendations made by Arlington Acres. They have built an incredibly helpful website with all kinds of tips, suggestions, and measurement info. for their spaces. We booked Arlington Acres for both the Friday before our wedding and the full day of our wedding, Saturday. This gave us an additional day for set-up and we held our rehearsal dinner at the venue Friday evening. We looked at 5 venues with Arlington Acres being the first and nothing compared to the venue itself, or the hospitality and kindness shown by the Boltes. They are as invested in making sure your special day is flawless, as you are. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful their space and property are, and they loved the photo opportunities their sunflower patch (seasonal) brought to our day. If you’re questioning booking with Arlington Acres, just do it. You won’t regret it and you’ll love working with Sarah and her husband! If we had to do it over again, we would without a doubt still choose Arlington Acres!

The grooms cottage and bridal cottage make it so easy to get ready separately the morning of your wedding. I’ve been in so many weddings where people are running from salons to hotels to venues to this location for photos etc. and you barely enjoy the day that way. I felt so relaxed hanging out with my girls with our hair and makeup being done on site. THEN! The property is BEAUTIFUL. There are so many places for photos, multiple venue options, etc. I cannot recommend Castalia farms enough. It was absolutely perfect.

Could not recommend Harvest Moon Venue enough!! The staff is so helpful throughout the whole process - with planning and throughout the actual day and weekend. Our wedding pictures were stunning and we had to plan minimal decor wise because the property is absolutely gorgeous! My favorite part about Harvest Moon Venue is not only the staff but also how there is a seperate area for each part of your day - bridal suite, groomsmen cabin, ceremony area, cocktail hour area, reception area, and even an area for pictures. There are multiple areas for guests to socialize throughout the evening. If I could leave this venue 10 stars, I would!!

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.

I helped my mother-in-law plan her wedding at Carawood Lake this fall and everything about the process was wonderful. Suzanne is a very warm and responsive communicator. The grounds are extensive and the view of the lake from the back patio of the venue was beautiful. A highlight was the bonfire after dinner when all the guests roasted s’mores next to the lake. It was such a wonderful day. It was the perfect place to have an intimate, private wedding surrounded by nature.

Mohican Gardens & Conservatory was a wonderful venue for our wedding. While their communication wasn't the quickest, they were extremely accommodating and helpful throughout the planning process with my last-minute decisions. The venue itself was truly breathtaking - the gardens and conservatory provided a spacious and comfortable setting that set the perfect backdrop for our special day. They even went above and beyond by providing a golf cart to transport my grandparents around the property, which was a huge help. I would highly recommend Mohican Gardens & Conservatory to any couple looking for a stunning wedding venue with a dedicated staff. My favorite part was having private vows at the dock. Besides the music from the DJ, my husband and I were in complete privacy.
