Like most of the other reviews here, I cannot say enough good things about the Valley of the Eagles and the entire team of staff! We had our wedding at the venue on August 12, 2023 and it was an absolute dream. Leading up to the day, Candace our coordinator was on top of every single detail and we met multiple times to discuss scheduling, guest count, seating chart, our other vendors, etc. (not to mention the many phone calls and emails during the course of the planning process as well). On the day of the wedding Candace and the rest of the team set up every single piece of decor, table arrangements, guided the vendors, and catered to the entire bridal party - bringing us food, drinks, answering questions - they were incredible! We all felt so taken care of. Then, after it had been raining all day, we finally made the decision to try to still do our ceremony outside as planned. Candace let us know the decision was entirely up to us and helped to keep us calm even in that stressful situation! After the decision was made to keep the ceremony outside, the staff quickly got everything arranged, wiped off chairs, etc. to make sure everything was picture perfect despite the rain. Aside from the outstanding service, this venue is also breathtaking. The golf course has some amazing views and the indoor area where we held our reception is spacious, clean, and very nicely remodeled. Not to mention the food which was excellent and, of course, the drinks were also top-notch and flowing! We also planned a golf outing at the venue the day before our wedding and Barry and the golf team were so helpful and attentive for our large group.Overall, love, love, love and wish we could relive the entire experience!!

Candace the wedding planner made this event center 10/10. We held both our reception and ceremony at VOE. We ended up having a very rainy day and was the most accommodating to make an indoor ceremony as special as can be. We had a magical day that was filled with a very organized and smooth evening, everything we could have asked for. The location is on a golf course on the black river. Have various options for dinner and drinks. Also had amazing late night pizza! Great communication and meet ups in the months before. Large bridal suite and grooms hang out before the ceremony. They have an amazing array of decorations on site that are included in the overall price. Only outside vendors were DJ, cake and photography. Loved the whole package included almost everything.

We got married at Valley of the Eagles a week ago and the whole wedding was better than we could have imagined! The venue was beautiful, and we got a ton of compliments from our guests. We also had the best experience working with Candace. She was with us every step of the way and made sure that we thought out every detail. She made our dream wedding a reality and we are so grateful! Reviewed on 09-10-2023

We got married 9/22 and I wish I could do it all over again. From day 1, Candance has made it less stressful. When we originally went to look at the venue she was one of the top 3 reasons we booked it. She is so kind, helpful and just on top of her game. She went above and beyond for us in every way. Valley of the eagles is extremely lucky to have someone like her that cares so much about your wedding day. There’s nothing in the world that I could do to thank her enough for making my day so special. Reviewed on 30-09-2023

We had both our ceremony and reception here. The venue and grounds are absolutely beautiful. We received a lot of compliments on how pretty and peaceful it was at night, especially for those who wanted to get away from the music and dancing. You can hire their wedding coordinator for only an additional $500 and it's 100% worth purchasing. Candice and her crew set up and tore down all the decorations, provided additional decoration options included in the price, and she was available for assistance throughout the planning process and throughout the entirety of the wedding day. We were able to go into the golf course twice to take pictures which made for such a beautiful backdrop. Throughout the reception, she ensured we had everything we needed and even provided the bride with a hand held fan to cool off. Some things that we thought could have been done better:- The separation between bridesmaids and groomsmen made it difficult to communicate pictures throughout the day - especially since bride and groom didn't want to see each other prior to the ceremony. We thought walkie-talkies would have been helpful. - Where the groomsmen were held throughout the day, it was hot and stuffy. - For the ceremony, there weren't enough chairs put out. Therefore everything was delayed to make sure everyone had a seat. - We had 200 people and there is no way more people could have fit. It was very crowded and made for a small dancefloor, even with moving tables out of the way.- Very hot! They had separate AC units and fans throughout but definitely needed to go outside to cool down. - We had signature drinks and they ran out of one of them during cocktail hour. While some things could have been done better, it was still a beautiful night, and would still recommend using this as your venue. I wouldn't have done it any other way. Reviewed on 05-09-2023

Candace was so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure it was a great day! She works along side her staff doing whatever is needed- moving tables and chairs and all- to make sure the event is a success! We had to move the ceremony indoors the day before the wedding due to weather. Candace and her team made it absolutely beautiful! The chef was so kind and open to any adjustments on the menu. The bartenders were so fun and outgoing! And whenever they saw me coming they knew exactly what drink to get me and got it to me immediately. I wish we could do it all again! Reviewed on 05-04-2023

The venue was beautiful, all the guests loved being able to be indoors and outdoors and the little touches the staff did to make things flow smoothly.

Gabs Minotti(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-06-2022 This venue and the staff were absolutely outstanding. My sister’s wedding day could not have gone any better. When I was running around making sure little things got done, every staff member, from the event manager to the waiters, would drop everything to help the minute I needed something done. There were no issues or problems at all - seriously top-notch staff. Plus this place is absolutely gorgeous. The whole place had such a great flow between mingling and dancing and chilling outdoors. The outdoor view is stunning and the indoor decore hardly needs decorations it’s so lovely. I can’t say enough about this place or the staff. Extra shout out to Candace and Mac!

Brooke Ring(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-06-2022 Although I was only a bridesmaid in the wedding I attended at this event center, I was still blown away at how attentive and professional the staff were - from management, to bartenders, to servers - every single person I came in contact with had a smile on their face and were willing to help in any way they could. The entire venue (indoor and outdoor space available) was beautiful, with immaculate views of the golf course. Reviewed on 21-06-2022
Carol Minotti(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-06-2022 I cannot say enough about this venue. We worked with Candace throughout this process and she is incredible. I’ve been to many venues around the Cleveland/Ohio area and I have yet to see a venue like this. The outside patio is spacious and beautiful, overlooking the golf course. They have big open garage glass doors that open into the dance floor which then leads to a beautiful bar area. The bride and groom and wedding party were able to go out to the golf course for pre-reception pictures. The staff literally bent over backwards to help make this day incredibly special. Anything we asked for, they worked hard to get it. I am so impressed with everything Valley of the Eagles had to offer. They made our Day so special and all of our guests so comfortable. We signed our contract two years ago before Covid and since that signing, all of their rules and contract had changed. However, they honored everything on that contract and did not question one thing. We did not have the same experience with other vendors. So professional, we had a wonderful appetizer display and we were able to bring in all of our Italian cookies that is our tradition. They offer late night pizzas out of their wood-burning fireplace. Everything was absolutely amazing. As I mentioned, Candace is top-notch and shout out to Tasha and the rest of the staff!!! Reviewed on 21-06-2022

Natalie Bansek(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-06-2021 We had a wonderful experience with Janet, Candace and the team at Valley of the Eagles! Their whole crew did everything in their power to make my daughter’s wedding day perfect! The day called for an 80% chance of rain so we made the choice to set up the ceremony under the cover of their patio space. This was not my daughter’s first choice since she absolutely loved their garden area for the ceremony. When the skies cleared an hour before the ceremony, the whole Valley of the Eagles team ran outside and moved every single chair to their garden space!! Let me tell you, it was HOT outside!! The wonderful service continued throughout the night! The event space is beautiful and the grounds are the perfect setting for gorgeous pictures! They are continually making upgrades both inside and outside to update the spaces. Both Janet and Candace worked through all of our requests and they were very accommodating! We’ve received a lot of compliments from family and friends on what an amazing time they had and how perfect the space was! We can’t recommend this venue and team enough!!

Dhara P(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-05-2021 The Valley of the Eagles wedding venue was excellent. We really enjoyed planning for our wedding at this venue. Due to Covid, the wedding planning was already stressful trying to move the dates several times. We were so grateful to have an opportunity to work with Janet and Candace at the Valley of the Eagles. They were very professional and very accommodating of our needs for our special day. They definitely made it so much easier in terms of planning and recommendations/advice on other things that go along with the planning not just the venue itself. They made us feel like a part of the family and made sure we were taken care of. They were there whenever we needed them. They definitely made us feel easier planning on having the wedding celebration there. The venue itself comes with a great view of the golf course and excellent lights/fire pits decoration on the patio. From my perspective, the lights which are in place on the patio area makes it easier for the decoration itself from your side. We also had some of our wedding pictures taken on the 18th hole of the golf course by the bridge. The golf course crew was more than accommodating by letting us use a few of the golf carts. This made the transition so much easier for us taking the pictures by the water and then going back to the venue. The team also made sure that while we were taking pictures, the guests were served appetizers/cocktails. The food was awesome, we and our guests enjoyed it a lot. The team did an excellent job making sure everyone felt comfortable and were there when needed. We could not have asked for a better venue to have our special celebration at. All of our guests talked very highly of the Valley of the Eagles as a wedding venue! Reviewed on 02-08-2021
Amy Fox(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-05-2021 HIGHLY RECOMMEND this one of a kind VENUE, and the almost all-inclusive pricing structure. Valley of the Eagles has an amazing and spacious facility, BEAUTIFULLY furnished with quarry rock walls, live edge wooden counter tops, and many contemporary features. The VIEW from the banquet hall and the outdoor deck is truly breathtaking.My bridal party and I had fun getting ready on site, enjoyed the privacy and each other, relax, and took many First Look photos in and around the clubhouse.After the ceremony, my husband and I and our wedding party got many stunning wedding photos near hole 18 green, and on the wooden bridge across the river.WE had the Classic Buffet with chicken and beef, and everything was delicious and timely served. Due to Covid and the health concerns of our guests, we paid a small upcharge for the buffet items plated by the servers on the buffet line. Many guests complimented and appreciated this thoughtful service. Bartenders were the best, funny and fast, in serving our guests. Our guests also loved the second bar that was setup on the deck, opened to serve right after the ceremony and through the end of the cocktail hour. Our friends were able to hang out on the deck, enjoying the food, drinks, and the view of the course and the Black River.The catering crew was exceptionally attentive, fast in clearing the plates, and was always around when needed. The banquet manager Candace is very sweet and so accommodating. She went above and beyond for us in making sure every detail was executed by her crew and among all the vendor.

As a venue, it is beautiful. We have looked at many places and found this venue to have it all.
