My partner and I were married at the BCT in 2017. We were looking for an affordable centrally-located space that could fit a large family (on both sides) that likes to drink. Our guest list was about 150 and we were well accommodated for. The BCT staff was quick to respond to our request for a tour and to meet with us about scheduling and details. They were attentive, flexible to our needs, and made the whole process so easy for us—we needed a little handholding with figuring out insurance and contracts. It turned out to be less scary than we expected! We had an amazing party that fit our vision perfectly! With food and drinks (open bar concessions serving local alcohol & One World Catering), we felt our values were also being represented in the selection AND our wedding was still UNDER BUDGET—if you can believe it. It’s too bad we can’t get married again and again. Highly highly recommend this venue and staff!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the onset when we first started talking to Bill and his team, he was attentive to our vision. His thoughtfulness, communication, and feedback helped put our minds at ease during the whole planning process. The mansion really is a one stop shop, especially if you have a more intimate wedding planned. Glassware, stemware, cutlery, and dishes are all available for the reception. We had our wedding in the fall and knew that we wanted amber glasses/ decor for the event and had let Bill know we were purchasing some of this for our guests to use. What we didn’t expect was for him to give us access to all of the existing decor in the mansion that matched our aesthetic. You’re truly not just getting a fantastic venue; you’re working with an amazing person. We also originally planned to have a tent for the reception (which Bill gave a list of recommended places to rent from), as well as our ceremony in a different part of the venue. We changed our mind as the wedding got closer and Bill was not only flexible with this, but supportive and understanding. He helped us layout where we wanted certain decorations to go, how the seating should be arrange, and helped us map out what the day of the wedding would look like. He was so professional and was arguably as excited about our wedding as we were. Leading up to the day of the wedding, some of our guests were staying at the mansion. Bill and his team prepared the rooms for our guests and even made the moments before the wedding memorable as well. They had full use of the mansion and he was a call away if anything was needed. The backyard was decorated with strings of lights, a dance floor, and he had both pews and chairs for our guests to sit in during the ceremony. As for the venue itself, it was originally built by a furniture manufacture near the early twentieth century. The incredibly detailed woodwork throughout the house and in the historic dining room furniture reflect this history beautifully. The downstairs has two fireplaces that made perfect locations for family and group photographs. A freak thunderstorm delayed our departure from the venue, and once again, Bill came through by allowing us to stay an additional night there to ensure our travels were safe. You really can search across the country, but we truly don’t believe you will find a better venue or team than you would here. It made a potentially stressful event into such an amazing start to our marriage.

  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,000

Inspired by the airy tranquility of the California desert, west coast vibes, and a little Palm Springs glam, this 11,000 square foot industrial beauty has been transformed into a celebration destination only 10 miles east of downtown Cincinnati. To create a base palette for you, we’ve salvaged the original 1950 structure and elements of the building, to allow its history to shine through. The open space includes exposed rafters, polished concrete floors, and extra large windows for natural light. We’ve layered in modern amenities and elegant lighting.

My therapist says there is no such thing as a bridezilla, but I think I got close. Amanda and the rest of the Mojave East team did everything in their power to reduce my stress and make my day awesome. I wasn't allowed to get hungry, stressed, or into micro manager mode. They made sure I was focused on my husband and our family. I had a great day, so much that I'm hoping to have our anniversary party there. if they have your event date available, jump on it. It's a beautiful space, the acoustics are nice inside and out, and you can decorate it almost any way you want. They have great relationships with vendors, and make sure your day is wonderful from the time you get out of the limo to the time you get back in at the end of the night.

21c Cincinnati is a contemporary art museum hotel. This beautiful hotel is located in a building that is over 100 years old.

Take a look at our Gallery photos and you'll see what we mean; from original crown molding to original brick and tiling. The hotel is situated in the center of The Queen City, across from the Aronoff Center for the Arts. Dotted with stunning art galleries and on-site installations, 21c is the perfect venue for a culturally immersive wedding experience.

21c: A modern, timeless, and elegant place to exhibit your love. Our 11:11 wishes came true when we exchanged our vows at 21c Museum Hotel this past November 11th. We hosted a private ceremony surrounded by our closest family members. The event was simple, intimate, and quite honestly–perfect. We were looking for a venue that fit our not so traditional vibe. The location, 21c, provided the most magical backdrop and we immediately knew it was the perfect place to host our #micromony. After visiting the solarium and surrounding galleries in person, we could so visualize our wedding taking place here and it felt like a dream come true. Danielle staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly so we could truly soak up the day. Their grace expertise were so appreciated during this overwhelming, beautiful slightly stressful time. Cheers to an everlasting marriage filled with happiness, laughter and lots of #LiegibelLove.

Featuring hand-painted murals, marble, stained glass windows, vaulted ceilings, terrazzo flooring, & a cobblestone courtyard, this spectacular venue made for an unrivaled setting for events.

Conveniently located in the heart of Muncie, our forty-acre campus features beautiful garden venues, historic Ball family mansions, and a modern museum facility. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will help guide you through the event planning process and make sure your special day runs smoothly.

The day of the wedding was awesome, but leading up to the wedding, getting ahold of them was exhausting. It wasn’t until I badgered them with calls and multiple emails that I would finally get answers. I think if you’re on a budget they’re perfect, but seriously plan your wedding 1.5/2 years out because it takes a life time to get decisions made.

The Center was the perfect venue for our wedding! The space is absolutely beautiful and it’s perfect for couples like us who wanted to have their ceremony and reception in the same place. We had our ceremony in the dome room and our reception in the main ball room and it was absolutely beautiful! We got tons of compliments and how great the space was from our guests. It’s extremely convenient with many parking garages within a few blocks as well as various hotels nearby for guests to stay in. The staff at The Center is absolutely wonderful and even with all of the new restrictions that came with COVID they made sure we still had the perfect wedding. Katie was great and kept us up to date during all the craziness that was going on this spring and always answered any questions we had ASAP. I can not recommend The Center enough!!!

I don’t even know where to begin. Before the wedding day, Grace, Klara, and Tina went above and beyond on every single detail to make this day truly special. They were there every step of the way and responded so quickly. I know they were working with so many other weddings, but made me feel special like I was the only wedding they were focusing on. I knew the wedding day was going to be beautiful through the planning process but I couldn’t imagine it being as beautiful as it was. From the morning of getting ready, to riding away at night I was in awe the entire time. I felt like the luckiest girl/bride in the world getting married there and having the support from all the staff and support.
