I recently got married here on 11-18-23. It was a wonderful experience! As a first time bride, when I started planning my wedding, I was lost! Their complete wedding package was a life saver! Julie and Joshua were so wonderful and easy to communicate with about anything and everything! I am so grateful we chose Elm Ridge for our special day!! Reviewed on 08-12-2023
Laura Wood(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-01-2020 Julie was my coordinator, but if she couldn't be there to answer questions the rest of the staff would jump right in to help. I cannot begin to say how thankful I am that we went with Elm Ridge and their all inclusive package. They contact you when the time comes to get stuff done and everyone they work with are amazing. I highly recommend them. Not only are they a beautiful place, that makes wonder food and do everything they can to make your day amazing, they are also affordable. Reviewed on 07-03-2020
Sarah Hercules(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-10-2019 I cannot recommend Elm Ridge enough! Josh and the entire staff were so easy to work with, even though I was planning our wedding reception from out-of-town. Communication was professional and prompt, and they truly took all of the stress out of wedding planning for us. Beyond the quality, it is also a great value. Reviewed on 09-12-2019
LeeAnn Windemuth(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-06-2019 PICK THIS AS YOUR VENUE - YOU WON'T REGRET IT.The staff and venue itself are top notch. I didn't want a rustic wedding reception and in 2019 it's VERY difficult to find a classic-elegant type venue at an affordable price. This place is it! It's beautiful and can be decorated anyway you want and still look great! The process of planning and selecting what we wanted was super easy! I highly recommend the all-inclusive package. It saved me so much stress while working on everything else that is required during the planning of a wedding. I was nervous about all of the vendors being chosen for me but I can assure you Elm Ridge Event Center has the best of the best! The DJ, Event Staff, Bakery, Photographer, and everything else was out of this world! If you are looking to partner with an amazing group of people to plan your wedding day pick this location!

The facility was beautiful and the staff was so easy to work with. Tammy gave me her cell phone and I was able to text concerns or questions as I needed to. Highly recommended. Reviewed on 01-11-2013
Jes Dowling(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-06-2013 I had my wedding here in June 2013. The place is very nice and big. They have a really great all inclusive deal that's a Good price! On our wedding day everytjing was beautiful and the food was good! The only down fall of this place is their communication skills. They are the worst people to get a hold of. I would call and email them TONS of times before they would call me back! It brought on a lot of stress because I could never contact them for things I needed. Like our 6 week meeting was done 3 weeks before our wedding! Talk about the last minute! They are nice people though. Reviewed on 23-07-2013
Sarah Buterbaugh(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-05-2013 This was one of the first places we found, and my husband happened to know the guy from working together previously, so I figured we would get great service. I will say that he was gracious enough to swap our alcohol out for appetizers and give us uplighting at no extra charge. However, getting in contact them was HORRENDOUS! We played phone/email tag and had to wait several days before hearing from them at all. VERY frustrating when you are trying to plan things. They also had an open house where you got to taste few things from an extensive menu. Naturally, we wanted to taste the other options before we chose. The only option available is leftovers from the wedding they just had..so every week we had to go pick up food, and most of the time it was repeats and wasn't even what we wanted to try. The food did end up being very good (we had bbq chicken, ham with a pineapple/brown sugar glaze, loaded mashed potatoes, glazed carrots, and rice pilaf). The reception turned out beautifully in the end. We ended up with a bunch of leftover cake, which I was told would be boxed up to go. We came back from the honeymoon and found that the cake had been given to my parents to hold, uncut and covered with plastic wrap...and the flavor I wanted most is missing. It was the 2nd largest tier, so I KNOW there was some left, considering we had leftovers of the smaller ones as well. (Every tier was a different flavor) So now, I am back to being kind of irritated. They offer a great package deal, $5000 for Fri or Sun which includes hall, food, cake, dj, and photography...but it was still quite stressful. Reviewed on 04-06-2013
Danielle Lambert(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-01-1970 We got the all-including package that included the venue, catering, DJ, photographer, and cake. We expected at such a low price, the quality of each vendor wouldn't be so great - boy were we wrong! All of the vendors associated with the package completely exceeded our expectations. The only downfall was that the party center was difficult to get a hold of sometimes. However, they did an overall great job! Well worth the money. Reviewed on 10-10-2012
Elizabeth Milford(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-06-2012 Our plans changed 4 months before our wedding day, so we were in a hurry to find a place we liked. Everyone here was very helpful and the cost was very fair. Reviewed on 28-06-2012
Hannah Sinchok(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-12-2011 as a bride on a budget, there was difficulty finding a reception venue that met our needs but more importantly, our budget. elmridge party center went above and beyond!\rnot only did they have a variety of options for us, but everything (especially for the akron area) was so reasonably priced! they took care of it all for us: \rthe venue, the alcohol, the decorations, the food, the dj, linens, and just about everything else.\ralthough we did not go with this package, they even had a deal where the photographers AND cake were included with all the above list!\rthey went above and beyond to make sure we loved the place. the people were wonderful, the food was good, and everything was completely professional (but still fun). they took away all the stresses of the little details such as what the center pieces would be and many more.\rit was above and beyond what any other center was doing for us.\ri wouldnt recommend another venue. if you live near the akron area, this is a steal of a deal!

Kiera Francis(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-06-2007 I loved the look of the place. The walls were white fabric with white tulle lace and white lights. I had a light blue (baby blue) color for my reception and they were the only place that had the exact color I wanted. It has a fireplace that is always lit in the corner and makes a wonderful backdrop for pictures. It was the perfect location for my fairytale themed wedding. Reviewed on 27-08-2007
