Cheers & Lakeside Chalet

a with all the beautiful decorations We had our first dance and the gazebo. so many beautiful places for photographs. if you're looking for a beautiful wooded wedding this is your spot.

gorgeous and so perfect for either a indoor or outdoor wedding/event. They made it so easy and took so much stress off of myself and my now husband. I will definitely recommend them to everyone I know. Great communication, very friendly and so professional. Again thank you all for everything you did to make our day so special.

st day of my life.

floor makes it feel magical. We also has our rehearsal dinner there the night before the day of the wedding as well which made it so easy not having to book two different venues.

linens and food and a million other things. i loved having pretty much everything in one place with one contact.

ere great and got everyone through the line quickly. The staff was so helpful day of and did an amazing job setting up and tearing down. Everything was set up exactly how we expected ,I love how we didn’t have to do much decorating, the venue is so beautiful with the lighting and flowers hanging from the ceiling. The gazebo was perfect for our ceremony overlooking the beautiful pond and of course everyone loved the emu. Cheers really helped make our special day absolutely perfect and I would highly recommend them to any upcoming brides and grooms.

d the most perfect day we could ask for. We had our ceremony at the chapel in the woods. My husband and I are nature-holics and dreamed of a boho wedding. This ceremony spot was beyond perfect. With the lights hangoing in the trees and the smells of the trees and the lake, there was very little "decoration" that we needed to do to pull off this boho wedding. In addition to, we had the reception at the lakeside venue, which we also had to do very little because the space is permanently decorated with beautiful lighting, leaves, and branches that pulls the nature into every aspect of the night. Midway through the night, we had a bonfire and guests were able to spread out into the woods and lake or they could get down with us on the dance floor. This was perfect, especially with a pandemic going on. Penny and Steve are absolutely amazing and truely care about every wedding they have on their property. The week of the wedding, there was a water break in the lakeside venue and Penny immediately scrambled to find a fix so that we could make our day possible. Also, our coordinator Bailee and the rest of the Cheers crew spent countless emails and phone calls to help us plan this day right. We decided to do the pasta bar, and let me just say I've received so many compliments about it. Between the show of watching the servers flip pans through fire and the quality of the food was too notch. This was perfect for all types of eating preferences, including mine which is vegan. We also had the fajitas at the rehearsal, and my mouth is still watering thinking about them. Most venues supply a small room for a bridal suite. Cheers had an entire small house with two rooms and a bathroom that we were able to do touch ups in. And it was decorated with care. We took photos both before and after the ceremony. There was no shortage of great backdrops including beautiful flower gardens, woods, ponds, lakes and even an Emu!

ing planner and was so very impressed with the staff and owners. They made me feel welcome as a planner and a mother. Our friends are still talking about it two months later.

ry responsive to questions (and I had a million). We got married at the lakeside gazebo and the ceremony space is beautifully decorated, as is the reception hall. I felt like I barely needed my own decorations! Also, catering is included with the price of the venue, and the food is amazing as well. AND you get a wedding coordinator to help navigate you through the day and keep you on schedule, which was so helpful. I literally could go on and on about this place, but I definitely recommend it to anyone. It is very unique and I loved that it wasn't a barn/country style, which I feel like is very common in my area (but just not my style). You won't regret getting married here!!

oncerns, in which they explained they weren’t rebooking for my date. By the time they would’ve began rebooking for my dates, Ohio laws had been changed back to allow large wedding receptions. We did not feel comfortable hosting 150 guests and we tried desperately to work with the venue on a smaller wedding. The venue was going to hold us to our minimum which would’ve covered 150 guests, regardless of what size we felt comfortable with. They stated because the state allowed it they are not contractually obligated to make exceptions. Only when I said I was going to be cancelling my booking did they offer an alternative date, only Friday winter dates, despite paying for a summer Saturday (double the cost). We were willing to push it until 2021 but they would not give us the option. We decided to cancel our booking. We know we signed a contract stating no refunds but we never dreamed a pandemic would hit. We had been making payments for nearly 8 months and they refused to give us any percent of our money back. Once again I tried to be understanding and work with them, we were okay with losing the deposit. But they took and kept the payments we had made for food, bar, and service knowing they would not be providing them. They kept thousands of dollars. It was extremely disappointing. If you are booking during COVID, I would be prepared if anything unexpected happens, they will not be willing to work with you.

o get married at Cheers!

good idea of what the venue had to offer based on their website, so we decided to at least take a visit. As we pulled up, we still weren't sure of the place ... after 10-15 minutes of touring with Steve (the owner) my wife fell in love with it, and we were handing Steve a check for the deposit. I don't need to go through all of the details, but the staff made our wedding seamless! We had quite a bit of our own decorations, and we dropped everything off the day before and the staff had everything perfectly in it's place for the day, we didn't have to do a thing! All that was left for us to do was enjoy our beautiful wedding! If you want an affordable price tag, with a dream-come-true experience, Cheers Chalet is the place! Thank you so much to Steve, Penny, and their wonderful staff!

fantastic. Venue is beautiful.

at we didn't have any stress, questions, or huge changes that altered our day. The food was great, the service was great, and the venue is beautiful. They were also very welcoming and accepting of our same sex wedding and never batted an eye. Highly, Highly recommend!

people we have ever met and our Coordinator, Tanya, was incredible. We had the Pasta Saute bar for dinner and received compliments all night on how good the food was. I can not express how great Cheers was from start to finish, there is no way you can go wrong choosing Cheers Chalet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

os saying they look straight out of a fairytale because of the beautiful lights adorning the trees at the Lakeside venue and how gorgeous the property and gazebo is. If you want to check out some of my photos or read a more in depth review that encompasses my entire experience with Cheers, check out my blog post! https://makinglifemerry.com/bestcolumbusweddingvenue/

e was so reasonable compared to all other venues !! I'm so glad I chose them for my venue I couldn't be more happier !!!

provided equally stellar service. You will not be disappointed with the staff at Cheers.

ht. You can not go wrong with this venue. Everything from the venue itself, food, service and the planning was absolutely perfect. To top it off they met my strict budget!

vered outdoor floor with greenery and lights and a beautiful gazebo. Cheers Chalet met every expectation we had and more. The food was great and the staff was phenomenal. They were accommodating to our wants and needs and made everything stress free! Leading up to and the day of was so smooth. If we got married all over again we would still choose Cheers Chalet.

at. The food was delicious! And all the small details they tended to made the experience just great. And the entire atmosphere so beautiful and put together. Highly recommend!

g for us. We both felt super comfortable for the entire process and never felt pressured for any reason at all. The food was also absolutely amazing. We had the “Build Your Own Pasta Bar” along with chicken Parmesan. If you tell them about any allergies, they are on it and make sure that you and your guests are taken care of. I highly recommend having your wedding at Cheers (Lakeside is gorgeous). Most of the venues that we had looked at made us absolutely sick to our stomachs with the price, but I think we got a fair deal with Cheers and I didn’t feel like we were being taken advantage of at any point. They will make this the most stress-free process!

earsal and showed them my vision and they set everything up flawlessly! I even got pictures through out the day from my wedding coordinator (Tanya), showing me the progress and most importantly my cake when it arrived! The day of myself and my wedding party was handled with complete care and dedication! We wanted for nothing. Each detail was perfect. They made my day absolutely amazing and I could not have asked for more. I would recommend this venue a million times! Thank you so much for everything!

e absolutely wonderful to work with, and totally understood what I was envisioning in my head. They were able to make my day the perfect day I hoped and planned for. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for that rustic/modern feel, and amazing food for your guests.

ck without overwhelming us since we didn’t have any additional help planning everything. The food was absolutely incredible, and I highly recommend the Roman pasta sauté for anyone looking to accommodate a wide variety of dietary restrictions.

appy with everything they did!

above and beyond what we expected for our wedding day. But there were a few things that I was not happy about. First being the names on their sign that they have when guests enter. our ceremony was a 4:30 so guests started showing at 4. We mentioned to a staff member at 3 that the names had not been changed from the previous night event and our guests were going to start to show and the staff member replied "not my issue" it was then mentioned again to who ever was in charge of cooking our food while she was in the office and she shrugged it off as no big deal. what upset us is neither of these employees helped us find help for it. Finally, we were able to find Jennie and she changed it right away, but by that time most of our guests had shown and it seemed almost pointless. We just felt that the first two employees we talked to didn't care enough for our event, when we were paying for it. and they should of at least contacted someone to change it. The second issue was that in our timeline we had provided on multiple occasions, salad was supposed to be served to our guests at 6pm to allow us a little more time to take pictures, but it was not served till 6:20 pushing our timeline out a bit, dinner was also late to be served. Why work so hard on a timeline if it wasn't followed? Over all our event was beautiful and besides the staff mentioned above, everyone was very helpful and accommodating. We enjoyed the open houses, and they were always well put together. If you get the chance to work with Jennie, do it! Our hostess, Lauren, was very helpful and pleasant to work with as well.

. The staff was friendly and helpful. They maintained a clean dining room without being obtrusive to the guests. The bartender remembered my ordered every time I went up for a drink. Everything was decorated and ready to go upon arrival. They addressed any issues that came up (like when one of our wedding guests went to the wrong location and had to have a coordinator retrieve his wedding card from the wrong box... lol), and were helpful throughout the day. The space is beautiful, especially with the recent updates (my best friend was SO excited about the barn doors).

felt overwhelmed through the whole process, and that was with planning my wedding in just 6 months! Jennie was our wedding coordinator and ended up being our wedding hostess and I just love her. She was so willing to help and open to suggestions plus any time I had a question or concern she was always very quick to get back to me! I am so glad we decided to use Cheers as our wedding venue.

there and is also gorgeous with the strung lights and lanterns hanging from the ceiling. If the venue itself wasnt perfect enough, the staff was also incredible. They helped with our set up/tear down. Anything we needed help with, they were on it. Our coordinator Tanya was a godsend too. She was so organized and instructed the staff perfectly. We had transfers from the ceremony to the reception and she completed it so seamlessly. i didnt even notice her doing it. She even carried my food from the food station to my seat to make sure i didnt spill anything on my wedding dress. So sweet.

nd we cannot wait to receive our official ones from our photographer! Caley was our event coordinator and she was so sweet. She attended to every detail the way we wanted it and our dining set up was gorgeous! We went with the pasta bar for our dinner option and guests LOVED it, we had so many positive remarks about the food. The only thing that was mentioned to us is that later in dinner, as some guests went to get seconds, they had ran out of pasta, so the "All You Can Eat" option could have been planned better for the amount of guests we had. We experienced similar remarks for the sweet and salty station, a lot of options ran out by the end of the evening. All in all, this was a gorgeous venue and the staff was so friendly and easy to work with. Our guests had a fabulous experience and are still giving compliments to the venue, so we couldn't be happier with our special day!

incredible! She worked with us from the start of our wedding planning through the wedding day. She and Caley made sure the entire day ran smoothly. The food is to die for! The top sirloin and loaded mashed potatoes were my favorite! Our day was absolutely perfect in every way, and it would not have been made possible without the help of the Cheers staff!

was always around running things. The food was good, (I only wish I would have taken the time to eat more). They let us run around three whole property taking photos where ever we wanted. They were amazing to us. I couldn't be happier with my experience. Everyone should get married here : )

d in making the day go so smoothly! If there were any problems, I didn't know about them, so they really took off the stress for the couple and did all the work! Definitely recommend!

ues throughout the entire process, everyone was nice and accommodating! Very professional venue and I’m so happy we found you guys and had a wonderful experience!

with, very accommodating.

he guests about how amazing the food was. They made the whole process so easy. Caley was who we worked with for the majority of the time and we LOVED her. She is so so sweet and so quick to respond to any questions or concerns. There are a few complaints I have however. Rachel, our event coordinator for the rehearsal and actual wedding day was AWFUL. We had SO many complaints not only from our wedding party but from guests too. She was rude to my wedding party, made horrible comments to them during rehearsal and the ceremony. She also showed up to the wedding in a SKIN TIGHT bright red dress which her spanks showed out of the bottom. So embarrassing when guests continue to ask all night who she is and why she's dressed the way she is. I also didn't like that we didn't even meet her until rehearsal when she was the one we would be working with the most when it came to the actual wedding. I wish we could have had Caley instead. Again, overall cheers was wonderful, the setting is absolutely beautiful and we had the best day. I would just NOT recommend working with Rachel if it can be avoided.

for free anywhere!). They had recommended vendors there as well which helped us in making our final selections! Caley K. was so helpful the weeks leading up to the wedding, making sure I didn't need anything else or need any additional help with vendors! The staff at the venue was so accommodating and willing to help out in any way possible! The food was fantastic (people are still raving about it) and the tables looked gorgeous!! Thank you all for your hard work and dedication!!

le with the first wedding planning due to clash of personalities and email exchange was slow. But when we switched it got better. We got married at lakeside. Tanya did an awesome job setting up. We couldn’t set up the day before due to a wedding so I gave her all the decorations and she set up that morning. She sent me pictures to make sure nothing was missed and nothing was! Wedding ceremony was perfect. The reception was okay: the bartender had flat coke but my mom told Tanya and that was fixed right away. Had problem with two different types of beer being warm. I actually had to put ice in mine. Bartender was pouring liquor that wasn’t included in the package and then making guests pay for it. I told one the the helpers to talk with him and Then Bartender was telling guests we got the cheaper package so they would have to pay. After the wedding was over the staff lost some of my boxes and they were just throwing stuff into boxes and not packing it up nicely. Doesn’t sound like a issue but I had stuff every where. But... with all that being said I am still very happy we picked cheers. The food was excellent (small issue with the cook forgetting to give guest pasta when it was a pasta bar). But all of my guests said it was the best food they ever had at a wedding . And all of the decorations were setup lovely.

out there. From start to finish, Tanya patiently answered my questions and addressed my concerns. She offered expertise and advice when I needed it while still deferring to and honoring the vision we had for our wedding. The execution on our wedding day was phenomenal: we received numerous compliments on how wonderful the food was and how professional the staff were. The setup at their Lakeside venue was incredibly organized and looked stunning! I went into the day with complete confidence that the food service was going to be amazing, so I was able to just be a guest at my own wedding reception and truly enjoy the day. Hire them. You will not be disappointed.

m so happy we chose the Lakeside Chalet!!!

some! Everyone loved how personable the bartender was. The venue is beyond gorgeous and all decorations were set up exactly how I envisioned them, without having to do any of the work. This is an amazing venue, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a classy, outdoor, or rustic environment. There was an unfortunate mix-up with our dinner though. I don't know how it got missed but we were supposed to have a vegetarian option with dinner, and it didn't get made. There were several guests who did not get to have meal because of this mistake, and I was very disappointed. Other than that, it was absolutely flawless.

osely with us to make sure our day was just perfect. They handled setup and cleanup, saving our friends and family lots of time. The venue itself is perfectly gorgeous. It's a little bit of garden party and a little bit of rustic; a perfect blend for what we were looking for. I loved that there was a little bridal suite hut to get ready for me and my girls! Cheer's catering was delicious. We had many comments on how tasty the food was. We had Southwestern chicken egg rolls that were the BEST. Taco bar was our main meal and for dessert we had make-your-own s'mores and some Buckeyes on the side. Everything was delicious and I wish I could have eaten more! Thank you for making our wedding the absolute best day ever!!! It was truly magical <3.

was a hit - it is a must-have!!!!! My only regret is that I wish I had had more time to enjoy the festivities - the bride and groom end up too busy to enjoy everything they put together!!!

the line. Prior to the event, Carol went over every detail and prepared a timeline for the wedding. She presented different ideas and made suggestions to my daughter that were incorporated that evening. The forethought put into the additional details and added touches made the wedding all the more special. As the Mother-of-the-Bride, I couldn't be more pleased as I listened to the lovely complements from our guests! We highly recommend Cheers for their professionalism, experience, and quality service.

Christel, Carol, Rachael and the rest of the Cheers staff made our day very special.

sit together once everyone spread out at the provided tables) and I was not given the rest of my wedding cake even though many of my guests have commented that they didn't get a chance to try the cake and several guests noticed not all of the cake was cut before it was taken to the kitchen. When I asked the next morning I was told by one person that they should have boxed my cake for me then later I was told all the cake was cut and served which doesn't seem to add up with many guests and immediate family saying they didn't have any cake.

ing outside. Rachel and Tanya were also very accomodating when our hotel flooded so we had family members trying to get everyones stuff out and they let us start the ceremony late to give them a chance to make it back. The venue looked beautiful as ever, the new barn doors in the desk area made a beautiful back drop, and all the decor was set up perfectly. The food was AMAZING, i heard nothing but great comments from guests. I would suggest to anyone wanting a unique venue, a little bit off the beaten path, with a rustic and nature like vibe, then Cheers is your place.

ption. It was all a hit!

rom the beginning of the wedding planning to the end of the wedding day!

ing was taken care of , and the location was beautiful!

d to be added for guests, wedding party, and especially the bride and groom.

nd we were treated more as friends rather than a customer the business was simply trying to obtain money from and check off a list (which was the case with some other venues we looked at). The whole team was such an integral part of what we consider the most perfect day of our lives. We couldn't have asked for anything more. You won't regret choosing them as your venue!

a little awkward at times and unless you had specific questions she didn't offer much information. We absolutely loved the venue though and the landscape was gorgeous! Their prices were very reasonable (considering other venues we looked) and they provided catering, set up and tear down for the event. After we booked, we were able to make all of our payments over the phone which was super helpful. We were also provided with an event coordinator (Caley) who we met with to discuss our menu, event timeline, special requests, ceremony and reception options. We decided to have our ceremony at their Chapel in the Woods location & our reception at Lakeside. Both venues were amazing! Caley was a wealth of information and was able to answer ALL of our questions/meet all of our requests. She emailed us our estimate w/ event timeline and was easily able to contact with questions/concerns. Adjustments were able to be made up until the final payment--1 week before the event--final counts 2 weeks before. Caley was awesome and a complete blessing to help our wedding and reception go as smoothly as it did. We were able to have a rehearsal onsite the day, and at this time, we were introduced to our day of hostess (Olivia) who would help to run the event with Caley. Olivia helped with our rehearsal and was also extremely knowledgeable. We brought all of our decorations and favors to the rehearsal, which they quickly set up. They did everything and more that we requested and were able to offer suggestions for anything we weren't sure on. On the day, Olivia and Caley both worked so hard! I was so impressed with their work ethics! Me and my bridesmaids were up in the office area getting ready for the event and Olivia frequently came to check on us & keep us updated. It rained a lot before and during, but Olivia was extremely flexible and accommodating to make sure everything went well . We did have the option to change our outdoor ceremony indoors if we wanted but we chose to stay outdoors. Even though it poured during the ceremony, the thick tree cover out in the woods kept our guest dry, minus a few sprinkles. We had personal umbrellas at the ceremony site and Olivia was helpful at getting these distributed to the wedding party after the ceremony. There was a golf cart to transport my husband and I as well as our photographer back up to the reception site quickly so that we could do wedding photos on the covered deck/dance floor. We had planned to do cocktail hour out there, but with the rain had to change the plans. Olivia and Caley, again were fine with this and quickly moved the cocktail tables to another area so that guests could still eat hors 'doeuvres and enjoy cocktail hour. Caley and Olivia were on their A-game the whole night! Food was AMAZING! We chose the hog roast package and it was so good! All of our guests loved the food & some even commented that it was the best wedding food that they had ever had. Myself and some of our guests have gluten allergies, but this was not a problem for them. They were able to provided gluten free options & also put the croutons for the salad into a separate bowl. Everything ran seamlessly & we would highly recommend! You will not be disappointed!

le! Thank you so much!

just the way I envisioned. I didn't have to do any work or worry about anything because the staff set up, and cleaned up everything. It was great because all I had to do on my rehearsal and wedding day was relax! The food was also delicious! We had the hog roast dinner with loaded mashed potatoes and green beans. Our guests couldn't say enough about how good everything tasted. The inside part of the venue where dinner is served has AC, but the dance floor is outside so we did get sweaty dancing the night away in the middle of July. I didn't mind though because it was absolutely beautiful, and you have the option to go cool off inside. Cheers is very reasonably priced and so much is included with their price and venue. If you are a bride like me where planning seems a little daunting then this is the place to book! They take care of so much for you and our wedding turned out perfect!! I highly recommend this venue!!

st "in" Columbus, Ohio). Cheers Chalet & Lakeside is a wonderful gem in Lancaster. The setting is so beautiful, and you will not find a more accommodating group of people! From the event manager, to the hostess, and the bartender, they were all so nice, professional and attentive to every single detail to make sure that our night was perfect! They kindly worked with our budget and were very creative in helping us have the "dream reception" the bride wanted. You will not find a more beautiful place and wonderful people! They have perfected customer service. Highly recommend.

nd my husband feel like our day was just as important to them as it was to us. My wedding day was absolutely perfect. They made sure that everything was done and looked the way I invisioned it to be. During the reception (as bride and groom you don't have much time to really think) they made sure I was fed and I had something to drink. They were great at making sure that I was absolutely comfortable and happy throughout my day. I would recommend Cheers Chalet to anyone. Beautiful venue (inside and outside), great service, and amazing food!

cious, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Guests are still telling us that it was one of the best weddings they've ever been to. Thank you, Cheers Chalet!!!
