Choosing the Ohio Statehouse as my wedding venue was my favorite decision of my wedding day. It is beyond breathtaking and I could take photos inside + outside for hours. Our guests not only raved about the beauty of the architecture, but also at just how unique and historical of a place it is to have a wedding. It's definitely not your average wedding venue and that's what we loved about it so much. Besides the building being absolutely breathtaking, here are some other aspects about this wedding venue that are important to know and as a result made for an easy wedding planning experience:- Angela is amazing at what she does and I have heard her other coworker, Taylor, is just as professional. Those girls know how to run a wedding! - It is extremely fair priced.- They were very accommodating towards a rehearsal. In fact, Angela ran the whole thing and it was super quick and easy. -The architecture speaks for itself, so you do not have to go above and beyond with décor and flowers.- You can set up the day before (this was huge!)- You can stay at one venue to get all your pictures done. - Free parking in the garage underneath the venue (my out of town guests who don't know how the city works loved this)Con's to the venue which clearly aren't that much of a concern because I still booked with them so fast!- The parking garage only has a 6'6\" clearance. I had a few guests with pretty average trucks unable to park in the garage and were late because they couldn't fit.- The biggest downfall, you cannot get ready (hair and makeup) at this venue. We had to do hair and makeup offsite and then we got dressed at the Statehouse. - We only had our ceremony here and were not allowed to bring any food or drinks inside the building since we didn't have a caterer. This sucked because I wish we all could have just had some Jimmy Johns before the ceremony. - No floral or food drop off the day before.

SOOO many amazing things to say about the Ohio Statehouse!!! It was an absolutely gorgeous venue - we could not have been happier with the space and how our wedding day turned out. The historical charm of the building was the perfect touch to make our big day come to life as we were envisioning. We really loved that it did not need much decorating because all of the rooms are so beautiful on their own. We received so many compliments from our guests. Everyone we worked with at the statehouse leading up to our wedding day was amazing. HUGE shout out to our coordinator, Taylor Wegman. She was beyond helpful from day one - extremely organized, great communication, very knowledgable, and an overall joy to be around. She handled all of our vendor communication and coordination and the organization of our day-of set up and tear down (plus so much more behind the scenes). Our wedding day really would not have been possible without her. We are so thankful to have had her as our coordinator which allowed everything to run so smoothly!

Other than marrying my wife, choosing to work with Angela and The Ohio Statehouse was the single best decision we made for our wedding. If you look anywhere else, you're missing out.It's rare to find someone and a venue who supports you and the vision in every way possible, but Angela exceeded our expectations to the highest degree. She brought so much joy to our day and worked incredibly well with the rest of our team. She constantly kept them in the loop to execute the perfect day, responded quickly to emails and never made us feel as if we were asking for too much. Most of all, she allowed us to enjoy our day and be fully present which is something we are forever grateful for.On the best day of your life you want to work with the best in the business. Book The Ohio Statehouse now and go meet Angela. It's as simple as that!

We have our wedding in September at the Ohio Statehouse, and it was everything we could have asked for! Marybeth is amazing and focuses on all the details of your wedding despite how busy she is. I can’t believe how fantastic she did at all the decoration from the day before to clean-up! All of my guests thought the Statehouse was a unique and beautiful venue for a wedding. It’s a special place for your special occasion. The parking is so easy for guests. I would highly recommend anyone consider having their wedding at the Statehouse, as you won’t be disappointed and there is plenty of opportunity to make it your own!

Everything the day of the wedding went smooth having their staff take care of it all.

The Ohio Statehouse staff is absolutely exceptional. We hosted our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and reception at the Ohio Statehouse on 4/20/2019. We had the privilege of working with Angela who managed every detail for us throughout our 15 month planning process. She responded promptly to all of my emails or phone calls and managed/coordinated our vendors in the weeks leading up to the wedding and the day of the event. We had multiple meetings with her in which she discussed details of the day that I never would have thought of, which was very much appreciated. On the day of our wedding, I never had a single person or vendor come to me with a question or concern, Angela handled everything so I could enjoy the day and it was perfection. At the end of the night Angela coordinated clean up, vendor exits etc. While the Statehouse may be a bit on the pricier end of venue, the beauty of the venue and the unparalleled experience of working with their staff was well worth it for us. We would recommend to anyone we know getting married in the Columbus, Ohio area.

She took everything in stride and made it our perfect day! The Statehouse is a perfect place to have a big wedding, everyone was accommodated wonderfully, and we loved it so, so much.

Haley is a rock star! She helped us plan our wedding in the beautiful Statehouse Rotunda. At the rehearsal, everything was already set up due to the helpful and flexible staff, and it went without a hitch. Haley was very accommodating with the planning and we really appreciated it! Even though it was thunderstorming during our wedding, Haley executed a perfect rain plan (part of the ceremony was outside) and everything went extremely well. Thanks so much to Haley and the Statehouse staff!

We could not have envisioned a more beautiful venue for our wedding reception. For one, it is stunningly beautiful, that doesn’t need a lot of extra decor because the incredible building speaks for itself. Secondly, the Ohio Statehouse employees, especially Angela, our wedding coordinator, was so detail oriented, kind, organized, and patient! Cannot wait to re-live this day with pictures!

If you can book the Ohio Statehouse, it's a great venue and I promise you won’t be disappointed. Your guests will love it as it is a very different look - the columns lit up at night are just beautiful. And the high ceilings give it such an open feeling. It has a very classy feel and minimal decorating is required. We had our cocktail hour in the Rotunda and reception in the Atrium. Gives your guests two great room environments in one evening. I can't say one bad thing about our experience. The entire staff is amazing. Haley is their coordinator and she is nothing short of awesome. She made everything super easy. Every meeting was planned thoughtfully and always productive. She made sure she received everything from us a long the way so that we stayed on track. She connected with all of our vendors and made sure they knew everything they needed to know. On Friday we dropped everything off to her and by the time we arrived to the Statehouse on Saturday, she had delivered our vision. We had our ceremony a month earlier and wanted to show a highlight video. Haley and her team had a whole plan to have it play on 6 TVs around the room. It was perfect. We used Milos Catering for both the alcohol and food. The Statehouse and Milos work extremely well together so again, another seamless part of the planning. The rooms for the bridal parties to get ready in are very nice. There’s even a private restroom where the bride/bridesmaids get ready. A huge perk for those who have a big dress and don’t want to deal with the bathroom along with the invited guests. Our whole evening went perfect. We were able to enjoy ourselves with our guests the entire night. By the time we said good bye to the last guests, Haley and her team already had every item packed up on our carts to take down to our cars. After a very long day, the last thing you want to do is spend another hour or so packing stuff up. We didn’t have to do any of that. We got our cars to the loading dock, loaded, and left. It was so easy. I could go on about other great stuff, but I think I’ve made my point. You will be very thankful this is your venue when it’s all over with. I know we are! :)

The Ohio Statehouse was the perfect venue for our wedding reception in early May. My husband and I are incredibly grateful to have held our wedding reception in such a gorgeous, classic, elegant, and historic landmark. Our guests enjoyed the cocktail hour in the Rotunda followed by dinner and dancing in the Atrium. Working with Sophie Chase as our planner was the most incredible process from start to finish. She is truly a standup professional, and I felt like I was planning our wedding reception itinerary and details with a dear friend. She went above and beyond and exceeded all of our expectations with her excellent organization, communication, follow-up, and poise on our wedding day. She was a calming presence for us as the bride and groom, our families, wedding party, and all involved. Sophie, the Milo's catering staff, wedding vendors she recommended, and the Ohio Statehouse security officers were all amazing to help make our day run smoothly. The Ohio Statehouse is absolutely stunning and we are beyond happy we chose it as our wedding reception venue.

We could not have asked for a better reception venue or better people to work with than what you will find at the Ohio Statehouse. The rotunda made for a grand cocktail hour and the atrium was a picturesque reception area. With all of the architecture, decorating really only needed to consist of lighting, flowers and table-scape to compliment how gorgeous the venue already is. Guests commented on its grandeur and enjoyed tours before cocktail hour. Sophie Chase was the best coordinator and took care of countless details on the day-of. She is a god-send.

It is very hard for me to put into words how perfect my experience was with Sophie Chase and the Ohio Statehouse for my wedding reception, but I will try....My husband and I both are from Columbus, OH but currently live in Austin, TX. Needless to say, in the beginning of our planning process I was worried about planning an out of state wedding and concerned that my expectations would not be met. Sophie made all of my worries disappear and the Statehouse went above and FAR beyond my expectations for a venue. All of my guests kept saying how beautiful the Statehouse was and how perfect the amount of space was. We had cocktail hour in the breathtaking rotunda, dinner in the atrium with beautiful uplighting on the pillars, and cocktail tables set up on the back patio. With this venue, you really get everything (indoor and outdoor experience) and plenty of space! It was so elegant and classic yet very modern feel as well.I keep saying I wish I could relive that night...it was so magical and just a dream come true (Cliche, but so accurate). Sophie Chase is a rock star and I cannot thank her enough for everything she did for not only me but my family and friends as well! Beyond pleased with my experience. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

The Statehouse is one of the most beautiful places to have your wedding reception in Ohio. My husband and I were impressed from the day we booked. Sophie (the wedding coordinator at the Statehouse) is incredible. We didn't need a wedding planner for our day because she was so helpful that we essentially would have hired someone to manager her, which did not make sense . She made sure everything was seamless, she was so responsive, and was able to help us with anything we needed leading up and on the big day. We were planning from afar, and she made it so easy to do so. The setting is beautiful. The stateroom where the girls and I got ready was so beautiful and rich in history - you have two littler personal bathrooms as well which really helps! My husband and the guys really loved the room they were in as well. We got so many compliments on how beautiful cocktail hour was in the Rotunda. Our wedding was black tie so the space was really conducive for that attire. The Atrium space for the reception was perfect as well. So much space and the ceilings are beautiful and let just the right amount of light in. Sophie helped us through so many different options for floor plan until we narrowed to the best one! We had a tuscan table going down the middle of the room with tables surrounding us and it felt like we were close to everyone which we loved. We also made use of the terrace outside the Atrium for a cigar roller. It was also a big hit with our guests! What's nice about the Statehouse is that it's centrally located. We had guests at the Renaissance and Sheraton - all less than a block walk from the reception. Our after part was a block away as well - it made transportation so easy (everyone just walked!). This venue is incredible and I could go on and on ... honestly - you will get five start treatment here!

I highly recommend the Ohio Statehouse for your wedding venue! I looked at so many venues before falling in love with the Statehouse and it was extremely affordable compared to the other venues! It was also one of the most elegant venues I could find and there was so much space. I had a wedding of 250 and it did not feel crowded at all. The Statehouse comes with a wedding coordinator-- Sophie-- who is incredible! She handled everything from start to finish. I never had to worry about anything because Sophie was in constant contact with all my vendors making sure timing/pricing/and finalizations were all handled. She decorated the Statehouse the exact way I envisioned it would be-- it felt like a dream wedding! Also, she made sure everything flowed smoothly the entire night. By the end of the night, she had packed up all the decorations and centerpieces without me even noticing she was doing so because everyone else was busy dancing! I had so many people reach out to me the next day saying it was the most beautiful wedding they've been to. I would pick the Statehouse time and time again for my wedding venue.. highly recommend!!

The Statehouse wedding was a dream come true! My husband and I fell in love with the venue from the MINUTE we first saw it... and then it exceeded expectations time and again. Every nook and cranny offers an even more beautiful view. So many guests told us that it was the most unique and beautiful venue they've ever seen. We have to agree ;) I'd pick the Statehouse 1000x again!The coordinator, Sophie, is exceptionally thoughtful and kind. She ensured our vision came to life... and then some! She preps the vendors for the Statehouse drill (it's a functional statehouse, after all! There are a TON of details). She helps ensure they understand the routine so that everything runs smoothly. More than dotting all those i's and crossing all those t's, Sophie has a calming aura that helped settle any day-of nerves. She was the partner you'd want.Also, the Statehouse clearly looks GORGEOUS all dressed up. But know that the building itself can almost be decoration enough! The rotunda, halls, and atrium speak for themselves in beauty. It's a masterpiece. From ceremony to reception, you get to see the many-faces of the Statehouse... each somehow more outstanding than the last.Finally - location, location, location! Our guests loved the central location. They stayed across downtown and into the Short North. Out of town guests were blown away with the Statehouse... and it's full capital city! They had a blast.We LOVE the Statehouse. We couldn't have imagined anything more perfect.

Every nook and cranny offers an even more beautiful view. So many guests told us that it was the most unique and beautiful venue they've ever seen. We have to agree ;) I'd pick the Statehouse 1000x again!The coordinator, Sophie, is exceptionally thoughtful and kind. She ensured our vision came to life... and then some! She preps the vendors for the Statehouse drill (it's a functional statehouse, after all! There are a TON of details). She helps ensure they understand the routine so that everything runs smoothly. More than dotting all those i's and crossing all those t's, Sophie has a calming aura that helped settle any day-of nerves. She was the partner you'd want.Also, the Statehouse clearly looks GORGEOUS all dressed up. But know that the building itself can almost be decoration enough! The rotunda, halls, and atrium speak for themselves in beauty. It's a masterpiece. From ceremony to reception, you get to see the many-faces of the Statehouse... each somehow more outstanding than the last.Finally - location, location, location! Our guests loved the central location. They stayed across downtown and into the Short North. Out of town guests were blown away with the Statehouse... and it's full capital city! They had a blast.We LOVE the Statehouse. We couldn't have imagined anything more perfect.

We had our ceremony and reception at the Statehouse last weekend and it still feels like it might have been a dream. The Statehouse was perfect for us because we were looking for an entirely indoor venue that could hold 250+ people. We have received so many comments on how unique and beautiful our venue was. While the Rotunda and the Atrium are stunning and historical spaces, the real magic behind a Statehouse wedding is Sophie Chase, the Statehouse event/wedding coordinator. I cannot fully describe how wonderful Sophie was to work with. From the very beginning she responded promptly to all of our emails and was very efficient with all of her communications to us and our vendors. She has a fun personality and a positive attitude, my husband and I enjoyed all of our planning meetings! Sophie made the wedding planning experience an exciting and enjoyable one, and that is something I will cherish forever.On the day of the wedding, I didn't have anything to be stressed about. Anytime I had a question, Sophie was already 5 steps ahead of me. She is phenomenal at her job and she has such great rapport with many Columbus wedding vendors! We decided to visit the Statehouse during our venue search on a whim and we put a hold on our date that same day. If you are even considering the Statehouse for your wedding, I highly recommend you go in for a tour. You will have the pleasure of meeting Sophie and it could easily be the end of your venue search.

We held our wedding reception at The Ohio Statehouse on December 3, 2016. It was AMAZING! Not only is the venue beautiful, and doesn't need much (if any) decoration, but Sophie the coordinator was an amazing asset. We would have been lost without her. She was so easy to contact and help with every little detail, down to last minute guest and seating changes the day before. I would highly recommend a winter wedding at The Statehouse. The tree and decorations were beautiful—everyone raved about the tree and took pictures in front of it. I would also highly recommend hiring tour guides (or one guide) for during your cocktail hour. It was super inexpensive and everyone loved it! They kept the guests entertained while we were taking pictures and most of our guests had never been to The Statehouse and loved hearing the history! Our entire experience was 5 STARS, no doubt!

We worked with Sophie for over a year planning our daughter's wedding. She is very detailed, prompt, and so pleasant to work with. We highly recommend using the Statehouse for your wedding reception. I have heard so many people raving over how nice the venue was and how special the night was.

The Statehouse is such a stunning venue with tons of different layout options. Sophie Chase is AMAZING and she works with you to create your absolute perfect day! She is available whenever you need and makes your day so stress free with her coordinating! She even helps you to find vendors and plan along with you. The statehouse has several different food vendor options to fit any budget or style as well as plenty of approved vendors for everything else you need! My day went so smoothly and everything was exactly what I wanted! It is also a very convenient venue for local and also out of town guests with both underground parking and plenty of nice hotels around. All of my guests were extremely impressed with the space and how beautiful everything was. I really cannot thank Sophie and the entire statehouse staff enough for their hard work and support! My wedding day was one I will never forget especially because of all the beautiful pictures we were able to get at the statehouse.

If you want to find a venue that is classic, historic and gives you amazing pictures then this is your place!! Not to mention Sophie, the coordinator, is AMAZING!! We had our wedding ceremony on 4-1-17 at the Statehouse under the rotunda and it was beautiful. Sophie makes the planning process stress-free and very enjoyable! This venue is the best because of Sophie. She literally saved our wedding day when our photographer cancelled the morning of our wedding. She was one of the first people I contacted for help and she did not hesitate to help us. She placed calls and messages out to other photographers and once we found someone she took over the planning and coordinating with them so I could relax and get pampered. She is someone you want working with you on your wedding day!! The Ohio Statehouse is an amazing venue and Sophie is one of the best to work with. If you get married there, you will have the best day ever!

We had our reception at the Ohio Statehouse and it was worth every penny! Not only did our guests rave about the venue every time we spoke to people (day of and after), but the whole process from start to finish was as stress free as you can get for reception planning. The true reason for all this was the coordinator, Sophie. She was so kind, flexible, organized, patient, knowledgable... I could go on forever. Meetings were planned at certain marks (90 days, 30 days) but Sophie was always available to answer emails and phone calls with questions. I cannot stress enough how great of a coordinator Sophie is and her behind the scenes work was flawless. As a bride she kept everything on track even when our pictures began to run behind, and made sure everyone was ready for entrances when that time came too. Thank you so much Sophie!Our cocktail hour was held in the Rotunda, with Reception in the Atrium. Everything was decorated beautifully and the staff at the Statehouse during the reception was wonderful. Everyone was happy and helpful (which surprised me because they were at work on a Saturday night)! We also chose to go with Milo's catering for bar and dinner - which made the process smooth since they are used to working with the Statehouse. Plus, the food was so good, beautifully plated, and served smoothly without being disruptive. Lastly, you'll be at a venue for beautiful, unique pictures inside and out - the Ohio Statehouse can't compare!

RUN, don't walk, to book your reception at the Statehouse!!! We were searching high and low for the best reception spot. We had no idea the Statehoue was an option. A wedding planner I interviewed mentioned it offhand and one day my then fiancé and I were driving by and decided I stop in on a whim. The second we were inside we knew it was the spot. They were super easy to work with to go through all details. If you don't have a wedding planner, they will basically provide that service for you, we had happy hour in the Rotunda which is amazing. We used their chairs which were included in the price to save $$. For a very small fee, we were able to offer our guests tours in between the wedding and the reception. The space was just awesome. And what a great location the atrium is for the party. The tall ceilings make for a glamorous look. There are also so many amazing photo opportunities. Take a climb up to ybr top of the cupola with your new husband, stand overhead with your wedding party and get great pictures on the grand staircase. The steps outside the statehouse are also to die for. All of our guests were enamored by it and still talk about the wedding whenever they drive by! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Simply put, the Ohio Statehouse is stunning. Everything about our wedding day was just perfect and more than we could have ever asked for. We got married on September 10th and had the most memorable wedding experience thanks to so many of our vendors and especially the Ohio Statehouse and Sophie. I can't believe it has already been over a month since our special day, but there is not a day that goes by that we don't think about an additional detail that made up our prefect day. We had both our ceremony and reception at the Statehouse and fell in love with the venue from the moment we saw it. Most of our family was from out of state/town and we wanted to truly showcase Columbus! The Statehouse was the first venue we looked at and fell in love. We looked at two others after the Statehouse, just to be sure and we knew the Statehouse was for us. It is a classic, stunning downtown venue that most don't seem to know about yet! It has character, history and elegance that is timeless. Along with the beautiful venue, the staff (specifically Sophie) was incredible! Sophie was beyond helpful during the entire process - she accommodated our every need and gave us all that we could ask for. Sophie was honest, genuine, kind, thoughtful, talented, detail-oriented and truly had our vision in mind. She was just a great person to get to know though all of this. Both Kyle and I would highly recommend the Ohio Statehouse - it was the most incredible day filled with love that we will hold close to our hearts forever. Thank you, Sophie! We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

My husband loved the history and I could not get over the gorgeous space. Then there is Sophie. I can not brag enough about how amazing she was throughout the whole process. I told everyone she was my wedding planner. :) Sophie is the Statehouse coordinator who was on top of every detail. I needed a lot of help in making decisions and she helped me in a way that did not stress me out (which happens a lot when wedding planning). Sophie helped coordinate with all of our vendors, making sure they knew exactly what to do and when. She organized the meetings and sent us detailed lists each time. I love when people are organized, and Sophie is on it! Picking a venue is hard, but you truly can not go wrong with the Statehouse. Our reception was perfect!!

My husband and I were married in August, and had our wedding reception at the Ohio Statehouse. I can't believe that it's already been over a month now and that I'm just now sitting down to write this review. Simply put, it was the most magical day of my life and it's hard to know where to begin to express my gratitude for that perfect day! Sophie is beyond talented at her job and I knew upon meeting her that she is passionate and caring with every single one of her couples. We booked the Statehouse 17 months out from our wedding date, and Sophie made us feel welcomed from day one! Through coffee and wedding planning dates, to the countless detailed emails and communication leading up to the wedding... It's hard to walk away from these 17 months and not feel like you've gained a friend. Our cocktail hour was in the Rotunda and reception in the Atrium room. Both were equally breathtaking and allowed for such a timeless and romantic night in such an impressively historic building. The night played out seamlessly, as Sophie never skipped a beat (even ran back to our hotel across the street to grab a letter that my husband forgot!) and she already built the best relationships with our other vendors. From our Scottish family wandering the halls of the Statehouse in their kilts and drinks in hand, to the beautiful decor and layout of the evening, to the endless dancing and party that no one wanted to end - it was perfect! Our family and friends are STILL calling us to reminisce stories and wanting to relive the unforgettable night. Thank you, Sophie!

Those doubts quickly turned into excitement when I toured the building. I knew that I had to get married at this stunning venue that nothing in Columbus came close to. I loved working with their wedding coordinator Sophie. She is extremely professional, organized, and just an all around sweet and friendly person.

We had our wedding reception at the Ohio Statehouse in June of 2016, and I honestly could not have asked for a better venue or experience throughout the entire planning process and the wedding day itself. The Statehouse is absolutely GORGEOUS, so not much needed to be done to the space to really impress our guests. Cocktail hour was hosted in the rotunda and the reception was in the atrium; both spaces are unique yet extremely beautiful and grand. Our guests were impressed from the start!I could go on and on about the venue itself and how truly impressive it is, but what really made it special was working with Sophie, the Statehouse's wedding coordinator. She was ALWAYS so quick to respond to all of my emails (and there were a lot) and was always so patient, kind, understanding, and thorough with her responses. There is literally no need to hire your own wedding planner because Sophie is that good. Sophie made sure to contact all of our other vendors prior to our wedding so my husband and I didn't need to worry about a thing that day. Because of Sophie, all of our vendors worked extremely well together, making our entire reception extremely seamless for my husband, myself, and our guests.There are truly not enough positive things I can say about the Ohio Statehouse or Sophie. I've been to my fair share of weddings, and the Statehouse is by far the best venue in Columbus... Heart of downtown, unique, and breathtakingly beautiful. What more could you want?!

Our wedding day was incredible! I had the best day in what I believe to be one of the most beautiful places in Columbus, Ohio! The cocktail hour and reception were decorated immaculately. Every detail requested was executed perfectly. The entire night ran so smoothly, my husband and I , my bridal party, family and friends were so impressed with the professional staff and attention to detail. Sophie Chase, the wedding and special event coordinator was great to work with. She brought all of my ideas to life flawlessly. We could not have put on the wedding we did with out her skills! Thank you!

Getting married at The Ohio Statehouse was something my husband and I had wanted to do before we even emailed them to discuss dates. We loved the building, the history, the location, and we had our hearts set on it. When I first reached out to Sophie she got back to me within hours and a few hours later we were meeting with her for an official tour and to discuss dates. Sophie quickly became a friend and not just another wedding vendor. I am sure if you are reading this and planning a wedding, you've encountered so many wedding vendors who are focused on the money and not on the people. Sophie was focused on us, she was always patient when we would have to bring our kiddos to meetings, or when I would send her countless emails over silly details. She was my lifeline and I couldn't have asked for a better person to lead our day. The Statehouse is beautiful, completely breathtaking, all of our guests had a great time. We added on tours of the Statehouse during cocktail hour and that was a huge hit among our guests. If I could offer any advice to anyone looking at The Ohio Statehouse as a wedding venue - email Sophie, fall in love with her, book the venue and then the day of the wedding take some time to walk around and enjoy the beautiful building that you are in as you start your lives together. I wish we could relive our day and I truly hope you get to enjoy every minute of your day.

Words can't describe the amazing experience we had at The Ohio Statehouse for our wedding. We couldn't give a stronger recommendation to have your wedding here!The planning process was so smooth with Sophie, the Wedding & Special Events Coordinator at The Statehouse. We met her and toured, and instantly knew we loved the venue and all that came with. The Rotunda is so grand for a ceremony, and the options for cocktail hour (both outside and inside) are beautiful. And who could ask for a better reception hall than the Atrium, where the marble and pillars are SO stunning. It has the perfect amount of space/capacity for medium to large weddings. You don't need a ton of decor because the building speaks for itself! We held multiple meetings leading into the wedding (a 90 day and 30 day, plus countless email in between), where we were always so impressed with how smooth the process went. Sophie was so accommodating, paid attention to every detail, and gave us great advice when we asked and needed it! You are in great hands!When you do tour the Statehouse, keep in mind that- while there is a fee to rent the venue there is no service charge on the back end, so when all is said and done, the rental charge essentially cancels out-- because at any other venue you are paying 20-25% on the back end(and you don't even know where it goes!). Again, we can't express enough how much the venue meant to us and truly made our day. Gorgeous! DO IT!

I could go on for days about what an amazing venue the Statehouse is and how phenomenal the event coordinator, Sophie was! She was so organized and had great suggestions on what to do/what not to do. She went above and beyond the weekend of the wedding, even filling in for the officiant that couldn't make the rehearsal! Her positive attitude made me so calm the day of the wedding knowing that I couldn't trust her with everything. The day went off without a hitch and I owe it all to Sophie! The venues is so stunning that I would recommend it to anyone in a heartbeat!

WOW! The Statehouse was literally the most amazing place to have my wedding. One of the reasons I was originally drawn to the Statehouse was the uniqueness of it. I wanted to get married somewhere that was original. Sophie Chase was AMAZING. She was very organized and answered any questions I had. She was very responsive and hands on. She was willing to go the extra mile to help out. She is even ran back down to the room to get my veil and put it on my head before I walked down the aisle. I had my ceremony in the rotunda, cocktail hour in the museum gallery and the reception in the atrium. One of the coolest things about having your ceremony in the rotunda is you don’t have to have a traditional set up! My guests sat in a circle and we were married in the middle of it! We (bridal party & myself) also descended down the grand staircase to make our entrance! It was so cool, many guests commented on how neat and different our ceremony was. Cocktail was down stairs; it was neat place full of facts and information about Ohio. We also had tours of the Statehouse going on during this time. Our reception was awesome in the atrium. There was plenty of room for everyone to talk, dance and mingle! If I could get married every weekend at the Statehouse I would!

She was organized, supportive, professional, creative, and walked the talked. She delivered every detail she promised - I don't think she ever said 'no' to a request from us or our guests. And the venue is incredible. We had our ceremony in the rotunda, cocktail hour in the museum, and reception in the Atrium - each piece was beautiful and unique. We received countless compliments on the space. It was also the perfect location for creative pictures. I am in meeting and events professionally, my expectations were high. I did not have to worry about ONE thing throughout the entire planning process. Sophie's report with our other vendors was also impressive. She partnered, but also lead the group so all pieces came together. Thank you Sophie! You made our wedding a wonderful, worry free memory :)

Sophisticated, Glamorous and Extremely Exclusive Venue and Wonderful Staff!\r\rAfter seeing around 8 other venues in the downtown area I thought we were ready to chose our location. I just wasn't 100% in love with anything we saw but knew they were nice. I was on the internet searching for \"unique wedding videos downtown Columbus\" when a vimeo for a couple married at the Statehouse appeared. As I watched the video I said to my fiancé if this place looks anything in person as it does in the video then we have found our place! The next morning we went to the Statehouse and as soon as we walked in we knew this was it! It is very exclusive to have your wedding at the Statehouse. You are guaranteed to have some gorgeous wedding photos taken inside and around the grounds. My walk down the isle was very dramatic and special as I started at the top of the beautiful staircase and made my way down to the Rotunda. All of this was possible due to the amazing Sophie Chase. She is one of the best wedding events coordinators that I have ever worked with and I actually work in the industry. She was knowledgeable about everything and extremely helpful with executing all of the details. We had a lot of moving parts since we had the ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception there. My business even provided 2 dessert tables with she helped manage seamlessly. The Statehouse is so luck to have such and kind, professional and dedicated employee.\r\rIf you chose to have your wedding at The Ohio Statehouse not only will it be the best day of your life but you will surely WOW all of your guest with this stunning and intense historical building.

The Statehouse is one of the best kept secrets in Columbus for special events. And, believe it or not, it's one of the most reasonably priced venues downtown. We had our 200+ person wedding reception there and it was fantastic (cocktails in the Rotunda and plated dinner in the Atrium). Outside of the obviously gorgeous setting, one of the best things about the Statehouse is the partnership that they have with Milo's Catering, which operates the on-site cafeteria. The combination is a sure hit. Another bonus is the built-in wedding coordinator who is there for you every step of the way. We worked with Sophie, who was wonderful and went above and beyond day-of. She gathered all of our cards and gifts, worked with the catering staff to pack up our centerpieces and made sure that we didn't have to lift a finger.

The grandeur and history of this building can’t be beat. The staff at the Ohio Statehouse was wonderful and very easy to work with. Amanda, the wedding coordinator, will guide you through your planning process. She knows the ins and outs of the building and rules and regulations. I could not say enough positive things about her work ethic and personality. We had multiple meetings with her and the caterer and she always kept the meeting on track and offered ideas for the big day. She was there the entire time on the wedding day and made sure every detail was attended to. Our 2 favorite features, besides the staff and building, was the covered parking garage underneath the building and state troopers they provided. We could not be happier with our pictures from the Ohio Statehouse. It’s the perfect place to have a Columbus wedding.

The staff was great and we had a perfect reception there with pictures outside on the grounds. \r\rA few negatives: There are a ton of rules with the Statehouse, and loading in and out isn't easy for vendors. Also, I had THREE day of coordinators during my wedding process. One that I had been working with for months leading up to my wedding told me a week before she wasn't going to be able to make my wedding. This caused SO much undue stress the week before my wedding, and isn't what I expected after the hefty fee paid for just using the building. \r\rI would of course book the Statehouse again, I think it's the most beautiful building for a wedding in Ohio, I just wish they could get staffing under control!

The Ohio Statehouse is a beautiful historical building with plenty of photo opportunities and a great space in the Atrium.;They only do about 8 weddings a year and this is not their primary form of income.
