We know what you are thinking, why Ohio?
The simplest answer we can give is that this place is everything we were looking for if not more within a wedding venue. We fell in love with it instantly.
We understand that it can seem to be a bit of a travel at a glance, but traveling through the Amish country we can guarantee that the time will fly by sight seeing all of the beautiful land once outside of Pittsburgh. The venue is located about an hour away from Key Bank Pavilion (Star Lake).
To make things easier on our guests, we wanted to provide as many places for accommodations as possible in this section. Traveling in for the night? Or maybe you want to make it a romantic weekend getaway with your significant other. How about a group gathering? What better way to do so by celebrating two souls uniting their love for one another. And parents of young ones, lord knows we could always use a weekend getaway without the kids. We know we hop on every opportunity train we can get when it comes to getaways. They are needed for our sanity.

Winter weddings are becoming extremely popular and Guests from other local wedding venues will be looking for accommodations as well. Accommodations get booked up, quick!

Especially since Christmas is right around the corner. Do not wait on this one. Reserve as soon as the accommodation will allow. For our guest who are going to chose this option, please drink responsibly. I'm sure an uber will be an option there.
