Wedding venue shopping is a lot on a couple. It takes time and energy and can be very stressful. However, when we say we found the perfect place we mean it. Donauschwaben’s was one of our venue choices coming highly recommended by our friends and family already. We reached out through their website and within no time we got an immediate response from the Christine, Event/ Wedding planner to set up a meeting together. She is not only extremely kind, but had everything organized so beautifully to choose from it was a no-brainer to choose this venue. She even recommended our DJ who had played a previous wedding there who was incredible. All communication leading up to our big day was efficient and layed out easily for us to understand. Our checks were deposited in a timely manner by the venue, our tasting was so nice and so delicious. The no pressure wedding planning was worth every penny spent. Our wedding day was so special and so beautiful from start to finish from the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to our lovely reception to follow. Not only was Christine present the day of, but the staff was also on their A game all night long. Everyone was so incredibly friendly and kind, we felt like royalty. We both highly recommend this venue and if you do, definitely get the Schnitzel, Prost! The only recommendation to the venue would be to update their beverage packages to include seltzers such as High noons or White claws.

Grand Rapids, OH
  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive

  • Starts at $8,000

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.

From the moment we inquired about Arlington Acres, Sarah and her team were extremely tentative, kind, and thoughtful in their communication. The venue itself is spacious, clean, and easy to decorate, providing excellent value for our wedding. When the weather unexpectedly turned for the worse, I couldn't thank Sarah enough for giving us time to see if it would change, and then being so kind and supportive in quickly shifting everything to the stunning Old Barn at the last minute. The smooth transition and beautiful, versatile spaces with a rustic-modern feel made our day even more perfect than we could have imagined.

We could not have asked for a better wedding venue! We had about 160 guests, and having both the ceremony and reception on-site made the entire day seamless and stress-free. The space was beautiful, and everything ran perfectly. But what truly made the experience unforgettable was the staff, especially Sam. Sam went above and beyond from day one. Without Sam, I’m not sure we would have even chosen this venue. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care made us feel so supported every step of the way. Sam made sure our vision came to life and kept everything running smoothly so we could just enjoy our day.

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.

From start to finish, it exceeded our expectations in every way and I only have Daryl and Anthony to thank for that. The space is absolutely stunning.

We chose The Factory Event Center for our daughter’s wedding, and couldn’t have been happier with the decision. From our first meeting through the final goodbyes, April and her team were thoughtful, organized, and made everything easy. The gardens are truly a highlight.

From the moment we met Skyler and John at THE WENBECK Wedding & Events Center, we knew this was the perfect venue for our 190-person wedding. Their communication was timely, knowledgeable, easy, and very organized - it truly felt like talking to our best friends. The quality of their work and value was unmatched, as we were able to have a huge dance floor while still enjoying the spacious balcony that gave us the option to be inside and outside during the wedding. The Putt-Putt course is unmatched! Skyler and John cared so deeply not only about our event, but about us as a person, which was incredibly different than other venues we toured. Skyler was incredibly organized, anticipating details I didn't even know I had to think about, and always had the perfect solution. From the final walkthrough to the rehearsal, Skyler brought such a calming presence to an otherwise hectic time, and I don't know how I could ever thank her enough. I truly can't say enough good things about THE WENBECK and Skyler and John - if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a single thing.

We couldn’t be happier with Jackie and her team. At every step of the way, Jackie asked the questions we didn’t even know we had. We provided Jackie with an inspiration photo and from there, she and her team went above and beyond working with our vendors to bring our dream wedding to life! The venue itself is stunning; the food was delicious; the dessert table was perfectly displayed. The service team was efficient and very attentive to our needs, always checking in to see if everything was okay. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening!

We can’t say enough nice things about this place! Most importantly to us was the excellent communication at every step of the planning process. The space is warm, somewhat (but not overly) fancy, reasonably priced, and welcoming to any size party. Lake Affect gave us a vibe so special it made my dad cry, but never feeling “formal” - aka stuffy. Our only warning to other couples is to plan for extra lighting in the ceremony space. We were VERY impressed with Stefanie’s problem solving ability when vendor issues came up on the day of the rehearsal. LGBTQ friendly as well!

When researching venues to have our wedding we kept coming back to this one and got married here in October. We loved the outdoor ceremony space, which was absolutely stunning with all of the fall colors. We loved the reception space for its spaciousness and what we could do with it, it was the perfect space for a fun filled reception. From the beginning everyone we worked with was very helpful and always thorough when answering any questions we had throughout the planning process.

We got married at the very end of September and the barn was perfect. We held our ceremony on the backside of the barn then walked right into the barn for the reception. The bathroom location was very convenient for guests. I also used the bridal suite which helped reduce stress throughout the day. I received many compliments throughout the night about how beautiful the barn was. The owners were very helpful throughout the whole process.

I had a fantastic experience working with the Meeker’s Venue team. They were willing to accommodate my requests for things like a slideshow in place of a father daughter dance, or having my friend play the music for our first dance live. We used their decor, and they had a great selection for the simple, green and brass theme I was looking for. They were friendly, timely, didn’t bother us with anything the night of and made sure to go through our family and friends instead. The venue itself, a beautiful brick church, is so cute and provided a great backdrop for all of our photos. We easily fit our wedding of around 130 people in the space. And their price fit well into our budget. I had a great time in the meetings leading up to our wedding, and an awesome party the day of. Highly recommend.
