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.

In brief, we cannot recommend Meadow Ridge highly enough--the venue is beautiful and unique, but more than that, working with Seneca and her team is a pure joy! They are organized, thoughtful, responsive, and caring. They make you feel like family from the first time you meet and the investment in the success of your wedding day is incredible. Lastly, I was nervous planning a multicultural event with integration of Indian and American wedding traditions in rural Ohio and all our requests and details pertaining to Indian cultural aspects were beautifully integrated into the wedding day! It is clear that hosting excellent and memorable weddings is a proud commitment for the Meadow Ridge team, not just a job they have. Venue: large, beautiful outdoor venue with a covered pavilion. To quote our friend, "I've been to a lot of barn weddings, yours was not a farm wedding, it was a fairytale." The flowers were stunning, the grass was lush, the pond lined with reeds and tall grassed, the sunset was out of a painting. There is a new patio in the larger pavilion which we used as our dance floor, so our guests danced the night away under the stars. The photography team Suzuran has stunning pictures of Meadow Ridge across several seasons! Communication/Planning: Seamless communication with the team, Seneca was always easy to reach and responsive, answering our infinity questions meticulously and graciously adjusting her plans when we had to change ours. Service: So thoughtful and caring, we and our guests were blown away! For instance, the bartenders kept track of what drinks we had as the bride and the groom and came to find us with refills. One of the servers brought over tissues when my parents and I started crying before walking down the aisle. As we mentioned, the integration of elements of Indian culture was phenomenal--Seneca was receptive from our first conversation and worked hard to make our hopes a reality. Having our wedding at Meadow Ridge was an absolute privilege and the success of the day is fully reflective of the incredible team we got to work with--we are just so grateful!

We celebrated our marriage at Orchard Hills in September 2024 having booked the site in January 2023. We toured the venue and met the staff who were very friendly and professional, and we worked mainly with Livia through the planning process. With each step Livia offered great advice and feedback to help us make sure our day went as smoothly as possible. From suggesting trustworthy vendors to helping with day of setup, Livia and the staff helped take out some of the major headaches of wedding planning. What really stood out to us was the freedom to choose our own vendors. There were no hoops to jump through, no extra fees, and a plethora of decorations provided by the venue at no additional cost. We had our dream wedding and we could not have done it without the help and expertise of the kind and helpful staff at Orchard Hills. We highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to rent for any event.

The Place at 534 was an absolute dream for our wedding on September 6, 2025! Having everything all-inclusive took so much of the guesswork and stress out of planning. They truly think of every detail to make sure your day goes smoothly. The staff are incredibly kind and thoughtful, making you feel important every step of the way. With how busy they are and all the weddings they host, I was amazed at how personalized the planning process and wedding day felt. We booked our date three years in advance, and it was worth every second of the wait! Jess and Logan went above and beyond on the day of—checking in often and quickly handling any little hiccups. Audrey and Doug, along with Jess and Logan, were all so amazing throughout the planning process, and we are so grateful for their guidance. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting how beautiful and special the venue and day were. The food, flowers, photographers, baker, décor, wait staff, and more were all top-notch! The Place at 534 also gave us excellent recommendations for vendors outside of their contract, such as hair & makeup and shuttle services, which made everything even easier. Our wedding day truly was the best day of our lives, and The Place at 534 made our dream come true!

The property was recently renovated, and was brand new to the wedding market. I’ve been to my fair share of venues in the Erie area, but this one really stood out. There’s nothing quite like it. It’s absolutely beautiful and completely unique. We had such a memorable night, and some of our guests are still talking about it! The venue gets two thumbs up. I would recommend it to anybody!

We just had our wedding at the newly renovated Cleveland Museum of Natural History and it was everything I had hoped for and much more! I cannot think of a better venue in Cleveland. We had our ceremony outdoors in the beautiful environmental courtyard. We opened up the Perkins Wildlife Center for our cocktail hour, and then our reception was held in the grand visitor center alongside “Happy”, the iconic haplocanthosaurus dinosaur. Beyond having a spectacular backdrop for our event, I can’t say enough great things about the events team (shout out to both Anne and Maggie) who helped us work through important details to make sure everything went as planned. They met with us before our event and were very responsive to any inquiries in the months leading up to the wedding. They worked seamlessly with all of our vendors to make sure the entire event was a success. The museum’s catering partner, Levy also did a fantastic job as our guests not only raved about the venue but also the food (and shout out to Lindsey for helping us coordinate that!). Many newlyweds say they didn’t get a chance to try the food at their wedding. Not us! The apps, dinner, desserts, late night bites were all absolutely delicious. Ultimately, if you are looking for an elegant yet fun and meaningful venue with a great team in place to carry out your vision, look no further than the Cleveland Museum of Natural History!

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

We had our wedding at The Madison and it was absolutely perfect! The venue itself is stunning, and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful setting for our big day. From the very beginning, Daryl was incredible, so helpful, attentive, and on top of every detail. He and his team truly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran seamlessly. What stood out most was how well they listened to exactly what we wanted and made it all happen. Their communication was excellent, their attention to detail unmatched, and as a bride, that gave me so much peace of mind. I was able to fully relax and enjoy the day, completely stress-free. Thanks to them, we danced the night away and had the absolute best time! I cannot recommend The Madison enough—the space, the staff, and the experience were all amazing. If you’re looking for a dream wedding venue, this is it!

Cleveland, OH
  • Up to 300 guests

Ariel International Center is a renovated 100-year old historic, rustic red brick building, with large windows, elegant chandeliers, high wood ceilings and earth tone wall colors. Opened in 2012, the event center is unmatched in providing for a memorable event with unforgettable sunset views over Lake Erie and a perfect view of the Cleveland Skyline.

This venue is unreal. The rooftop is just so cool and unique and the views are incredible. The fourth floor reception space was beautiful as well. So many of our guests told us how much they loved the vibe of the venue. There are so many beautiful photo locations throughout the building inside and outside. Tracey was amazing to work with - it was so clear she knew what she was doing and I never had to stress at all. The midges came out the week of our October wedding so we had to make a decision about the rooftop, but Tracey was so helpful and luckily we were able to do rooftop ceremony and serve cocktail hour food and drinks on the fourth floor. It is so cool that the rooftop stays open all night - our guests loved it! Also, the bar staff was incredible and the drinks were amazing! The bride and groom suites were so convenient too. It was so nice for our bridal parties to hang out there all morning and made clean up so easy and flexible.

Venue considerations

  • On-site parking not available
  • No on-site guest accommodations
  • Not wheelchair accessible
I cannot recommend Nick's Place highly enough - seriously, if you're planning ANY event in the Erie area, PLEASE consider it. I had been to a couple weddings there before, and both couples raved about the staff, but you can't truly know how incredibly wonderful and helpful they are until you book with them yourself! Truly the best service, and such a gorgeous venue. I was slightly hesitant to tour because I didn't want our wedding to blend in with our other friends' who got married there, but with our vision and special touches, and Katie and her team's guidance and execution, every wedding is so uniquely yours we couldn't be happier with how everything went. I'm certain I will miss something amazing here because there was SO much, but these top three stand out for me: 1. The food was excellent. Many guests have texted me saying they're still thinking about it a week later. Also, we have multiple guests with allergies. We fully expected those guests to just not put those items on their plates and eat the rest. Nick's said, we can do better than that and made special dishes for five or so guests (like salmon and sweet potato for my mom, mashed potatoes pulled aside before garlic was added, and green beans plated before mushrooms added, and storing and delivering special gluten free desserts for guests needing them). They were SO considerate in making sure every guest got the full experience of our wedding and enjoyed every bite. 2. The above-and-beyond hospitality went so far beyond food, too. One guest was on crutches and in pain and the Nick's team brought her ice for her injury. My family was coming from out of state and allowed them to stay in the Inn four nights, compared to the normal 1-2 nights. By the way, the Inn team is incredible too! Every time we walked by the desk they asked how we were doing and if they could get us anything. They checked on us in our rooms getting ready, and in the kitchen while having meals with our family. The whole wedding and extended weekend, both teams not only made sure my husband and I had everything we needed at all times, but also every wedding party member, and all our parents/grandparents. Truly incredible service. 3. Finally, the planning and coordination services that is included in the booking is invaluable! Other venues charge so much for that, or you have to find your own external person. Katie met with us for hours in advance to look at our Pinterest board, talk through our ceremony readings, talk about our families, and find ways to honor everyone and every tradition, with decor that reflects our style. Big bonus: being able to borrow some of their decor is huge for budget- AND environmentally-conscious newlyweds like us. AND, being able to trust their team to set up our dream decor and not have to worry about taking off extra time from work and adding extra stress to our plates to set it all up ourselves day-before (and tear it all down after the wedding) allowed us to be present with family and enjoy each other's company. I've heard from so many newlyweds and to-bes about how their wedding was more stressful than enjoyable, and that was NOT our situation at all. It truly was the Best Day Ever, like Katie said every time we spoke. I cannot imagine a better venue and team and I'm so glad we got to celebrate the start of our forever here. THANK YOU KATIE, SARAH, AND THE ENTIRE NICK'S PLACE TEAM!!! You are truly the best!!!!

She made everything feel smooth and stress-free, always quick to answer questions and offer thoughtful suggestions. On wedding day, the experience was just as amazing. From the moment my bridesmaids and I arrived in the morning for beauty time, we felt so well taken care of. The staff was attentive, warm, and professional from start to finish. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and offers the most breathtaking skyline views of downtown Cleveland. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how incredible the setting was.

They were extremely accommodating, easy to work with, and flexible to our requests. The wait/bar staff all served with a smile and we even had our own personal servers to help us carry plates back to the sweetheart table. The food was not your typical catered wedding food, offering a good variety with great taste. Very fairly priced venue and services. Overall 10/10 would recommend it for your next event.
