Words cannot describe this magical venue- you have to see it to believe it! It's literally breathtaking. The staff were amazing from the early communication to my day of event manager (the two ladies helped me A LOT!). Amanda was someone who I worked with on my multiple visits and she is an absolute gem! The staff helped make my vision a reality and even a month later, people are still raving about our wedding. The venue is so gorgeous (think double deck cabin style) that it needs minimalist decor (they even have a rental room you can use for the decor) because the scenery is more than enough for pictures. The layout of your event is very up to you with multiple options for where you would want the ceremony to be held. I loved using the patio for the ceremony (gorgeous trees as the backdrop), then held the reception inside (main level with bar deck), and had the dancing back out on the patio (the staff cleared the space but left chairs and benches along the outer rim). The nearby fire pit was perfect for a s'mores station and the side of the building has a nice grassy lawn where guests also enjoyed corn hole. The bridal suite is of good size with a full bathroom and a private deck (my ladies and I enjoyed our morning to the fullest), and then there are two other smaller suites (we did groom suite and the other room was to co-mingle). The staff let me plan multiple week day visits prior to my official planning meeting so that I could get measurements for things, scope out the layout and really get my vision put together on my time. My family and friends all loved staying in the treehouses (what a cool experience itself!). The bar is included with the venue (AMAZING packages with more options included in each than I have seen anywhere else- even with the basic package) so I just had to focus on the decor and the food (catering and desserts). You do only get the venue the day-of unless you luck out and pay for early set-up the day prior (I got lucky with my Saturday wedding and was able to come in Friday to decorate but they are normally booked with Friday weddings). Lots of parking made it convenient for guests. I included multiple photos (credit to Travis Lontoc) to help give an idea of the space and how we used it.

Our family enjoyed one of the best events of our lives at the Barn of Hidden Valley as we gathered for a family reunion. Next up - We are not newlyweds but planning to celebrate 50 years of marriage with family and friends by renewing vows at the Barn of Hidden Valley. It will be the greatest event next to the first time we said "I Do". The setting is everything you could hope for. Picturesque, quiet, serene. So much room both inside and outdoors to celebrate any function you could imagine. It was obvious on our first visit that the hosts at the Barn have thought of everything to make your event unforgettable. From the interior decor to the outdoors landscape and natural setting, it is perfect, especially for weddings. There are so many areas to take photos that are a photographer's dream. The Barn can be decorated to suit your taste, or, it is beautiful on its own with a warm, inviting environment. The amenities are accommodating, a wonderful kitchen, bride and groom dressing rooms, comfortable seating areas, outdoor areas are nature's best. Can you picture a stream meandering nearby with a bridge that is perfect for photo snaps. Our family highly recommends the Barn at Hidden Valley for weddings, family reunions, corporate events. Anything you can imagine for groups to gather and enjoy.

From the moment we drove up to Rusty River Barn for our tour we knew it was the right place for our wedding. The venue is beautiful and secluded, offering a wide variety of settings for each component of your wedding day. There are 2 outdoor ceremony options, one with a forest backdrop and one with a fountain, as well as an indoor rain location in a beautiful rustic barn. The area reserved for the bridal party for getting ready was big enough for our party of 14, as well as parents, to have enough space to comfortably get ready and hang out while waiting for the ceremony to begin. The reception hall was full for our wedding of 165, but still included space for a dance floor and felt very open once we opened the glass doors on all sides of the building as the night began. The layout of the venue allows for you and the guests to flow seamlessly in and out of spaces, and it made it feel as though we were still a part of the party, even when our photographer and videographer were pulling us out for content. Kellie is a phenomenal point of contact to work with, as she is very experienced and helpful when planning. During the wedding day, Kellie made sure to work flawlessly with all other vendors to ensure our day ran smoothly while giving us the time and space to process the experience. Even with a significant chance of rain day of, Kellie was calm and efficient allowing us to truly relax and feel reassured. Rusty River Barn was one of the few venues we toured that truly gave us the ability to have control over every aspect of the wedding day. Rusty River Barn provided the space and the furnishings (tables, chairs, ceremony arch) while we used our own vendors for everything else (linens, all bar supplies, etc). We could not have been happier with our choice in venue and we are so grateful to Kellie for being such a big part of our perfect day.

Jamey and his family were AMAZING to work with! They truly went above and beyond! From the first meeting I knew our wedding would be just as I had hoped. Jamey communicated very well, always stayed in touch, never seemed bothered by my million questions, redid the ground where our tent was going to be and showed us progress pictures. Jamey and his family are very detailed oriented and thought of things I didn’t such as walkway lights and smoke area if one was needed. Jamey was at our tent site on the property day of our wedding making sure we were okay, seeing if we needed anything, told us he felt we would need more heaters and got them in. His wife even helped my photographer to get the best pictures! We rented both cabins on the property for our wedding weekend and I highly recommend doing so! One we used for the guys to get ready and it worked out perfect! Both cabins are very beautiful and we stayed in both haha :) The property itself is GORGEOUS! We had the perfect background for a fall wedding and it truly was amazing! I can’t say enough how much we appreciate Jamey and his lovely family for making our wedding a dream come true. They really are the best. The property and cabins are just so beautiful and we can’t wait to stay there again!

We love working with couples at Nationwide Hotel for several reasons. First, it is logistically so much easier for couples to have everything taking place in one location. They can stay overnight the night before, get ready there, ceremony, photos, reception, and then afterward all of their guests can stay right there. This means there is no need to coordinate guest transportation, off-site hotels, bridal party transportation for photos, or have an elongated break for photography after the ceremony since it is much faster to do on site. Second, there are plenty of outdoor spaces for couples or bridal party photos if it rains! This is a huge advantage that not all venues have and rain is a real concern for an Ohio wedding. Third, there is a variety of spots on the property for doing group or couples photos. You can have the look of brick, green lawn, the beautiful pergola with all the greenery, the iconic covered walkway, some flowers, a tree-lined area where the leaves change colors SO perfectly in the Fall, and of course the fountain! By the way, the pond is amazing for sunset photos! We have been at Nationwide many times as photographers and always had a great experience. The food was always hot and served on schedule, and their staff is so friendly and genuinely wants to create the best experience for their guests. You cannot go wrong with any of their event spaces!

White Willow Meadows was an absolute dream venue for our wedding. From the moment we inquired, the team was fast, efficient and incredibly helpful in answering all of our questions and guiding us through the planning process. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous, with stunning landscaping and well-maintained facilities. We received so many compliments about how beautiful our venue was. We loved having the option to host our ceremony in the beautiful gardens or covered patio. The on-site overnight lodging at the dairy barn was also a huge perk that we really enjoyed.

Our history: The Friesian Empire Events Center was originally founded in 2002 and formerly known as The Friesian Empire and Equine Center.

The owner wanted to expand the facility to something that could include more than just horse owners, but people who appreciate the serene setting of a horse farm for their special event.
