Rankin Gardens & Atrium Weddings and Events Reviews
Jessie Gibson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-10-2022 Such a beautiful venue! Love the rustic/industrial feel and the amount of space the building has the offer. This venue has it all. A HUGE bridal suite and a good sized grooms suite for everyone to get ready - a beautiful atrium to get married in or as a back up rain plan - a beautiful courtyard to get married in - the livery for the reception and a beautiful garden in the back! If I could redo my wedding day, I wouldn’t change a thing and I’d get married here ALL over again. Reviewed on 16-11-2022
Kristi Gerding(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-10-2022 I hired this venue for my son's rehearsal dinner and I could not have been more pleased at the level of quality and the event space. Everything turned out exactly as I hoped it would. Tim was super to work with and Sue, the catering director did SPECTACULAR. The food was outstanding. We were able to bring in a tent into the garden last minute and everything went as smoothly as possible. It's such a unique property and we had that European feel for cocktail hour and our sit down dinner. I highly recommend The Rankin! Reviewed on 19-10-2022
Erin Coburn(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-06-2015 I loved everything about my wedding at the Rankin Gardens and Atrium! It's a beautiful place with so many personal touches and unique features! Reviewed on 23-06-2015
Sara Cruz(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-10-2012 Susan was remarkable! She very sweet and always willing to help. She always made time to talk about things, before and after the event.\r\rThe venue is beautiful with a lot of character, which helped cut down the cost of decorations. \r\rThe only reason I gave it 4 stars is because you can't bring an outside vendor to cater. We had to use Aramark through Columbus State University. Although their food was good, their service was terrible. Reviewed on 11-11-2012
