Working with the wellspring was AMAZING!!!!!! Brad was absolutely awesome and was so timely to respond. He gave us all the time we needed the day of the wedding and before. He was so hopeful and gave all the suggestions if we needed them. If I could work with the wellspring forever and do it all over again I would!! Our September 2023 wedding was so beautiful. The best dreamy day of my life. Reviewed on 13-10-2023

My husband and I found The Wellspring online and as soon as we visited we fell in love. The whole design was minimalistic and everything we wanted. Brad was very personable and willing to create anything we needed to have a beautiful wedding. Even with a few hiccups as most wedding have, he was there to give us the support we needed to have a stress free event. We had about 150 people at our wedding and it was plenty of enough space to have a comfortable dinner and a spacious dance floor. We wouldn't have wanted to have our wedding anywhere else!

My husband and I couldn’t have been happier with our experience at The Wellspring! We were looking for a venue that offered all the basic amenities (tables, chairs, etc) with a welcoming demeanor, easily decorated to make our special day unique to us. All communication with The Wellspring staff was easy with quick response times. We were happy to learn they work closely with Anna Kay & Co as a wedding coordinator which was a tremendous help! Anna and her team were the cherry on top to make the day absolutely perfect! The Wellspring even accommodated my husband’s wish to fish the morning of our wedding. Our day was everything we dreamed of and know future couples will have this experience as well! Reviewed on 12-12-2023

We cannot say enough good things about The Wellspring. It was truly our dream venue and an absolute perfect wedding day! Brad was incredible to work with from the start of our planning to the end of our wedding night. He was flexible, accommodating, and communicated with us often! We absolutely recommend this venue to anyone in the wedding planning process. :) The details that Brad and Emily put into their venue are perfect, and we couldn't be more thankful to have used their space on our big day. Thank you both again! Reviewed on 01-12-2023

They were incredible to work with, the venue is absolutely stunning, and everyone complimented how gorgeous it looked all day. The ease of access between the two buildings is fantastic and the outdoor spaces are just as beautiful as the inside. Reviewed on 14-11-2023

This venue was absolutely perfect for our October wedding. I loved the clean architecture of the chapel and reception hall and the beautiful setting with pine trees, the pond, and trials. The owner was super helpful throughout the whole process. An affordable option as well. I would very much recommend for your wedding Reviewed on 25-10-2023

When I saw pictures of this venue online I knew it was where we were going to get married! This venue is STUNNING! All of our guests loved the venue & raved about how gorgeous everything truly was. Brad was prompt in responding to questions & great to work with. We would chose this venue over & over again! It was perfect for our day! Reviewed on 11-09-2023
Jonnie and Heather Martin(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-03-2023 The Wellspring was recommended to my now husband and I through The Knot after hours of paging through venues. We were looking for a place with wheelchair access and the ability to host a ceremony and reception indoors as we planned to marry in March. Brad and Emily were responsive from day 1 to our many questions. They allowed us to bring both our decorator and photographer and explore how to put everything together for the day of, even offering some advice and ideas (Thank you so much Brad!). I personally am very grateful for the sound mufflers that were hung before our wedding. The buildings had had a echoing sound until that point. We had planned to hang tulle in hopes of that muffling sound, but were unsure how to make it all come together. The sound mufflers did the job wonderfully! And the audio the day of was perfect! Thank you. We did decide to hang some paper lanterns from the ceiling and those Brad willingly hung for us. He also moved the chairs for us so the guests could sit during cocktail hour. The venue design lent itself wonderfully to our decor ideas! We hosted a little over 120 people, and still had more than enough space for the dance floor and buffet. The foyer was spacious and allowed for an easy flow of people transitioning from the chapel to the reception. Even though the weather was chilly, there were more than enough spaces for our photographer to get the most amazing photos (pond, woods, grassy areas, and the minimalist architecture!). Thank you again Brad and Emily! We thoroughly enjoyed working with you. Reviewed on 07-04-2023
Summer Sarver(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-03-2023 My husband and I are wedding videographers so we were very detailed when trying to find a venue. I reached out to The Wellspring Ohio and Brad got back to me in a very timely manner. We were very impressed by their attention to detail, and their willingness to work with us to make our day special to us. From the moment we toured the venue I knew that is where I wanted my special day to be - and construction wasn’t even done yet!! There are so many windows providing natural light and the venue is so bright and clean. Brad and Emily thought through every detail and they decorated the place so beautifully! My bridesmaids and I had a blast getting ready in the bridal suite, and our whole wedding party hung out in there during the transition time between the ceremony and reception. The tables they provide are absolutely beautiful and the whole venue acts like a blank canvas to add your own decor to. I was able to make it my dream wedding! We had 127 guests and the venue was a perfect size (but we definitely could have fit a few more tables in if needed). Brad had the tables put where we wanted them to go and was there for the majority of our day to see if we needed anything from them! 10/10 would recommend this venue to any bride in the area!!
