Best place to have your wedding in Columbus, hands down!! Everyone who helped us at the Iron Works was extremely helpful in the whole process, especially Hayley, the director!
It’s historic and beautiful! The best room for a wedding is the North Hall!
The food was so bad and they gave the guests a butter knife for the steak which was over cooked and tough. There were like 4 servers to pass food out for 300 people. They also didn’t have different chairs or tables available and the alcohol we could choose from was limited. I would go to the Bibb Mill if you’re looking for a venue, it’s cheaper with food included and decor. There food is way better and the servers are 10/10. When you go to a wedding, it’s important that the guests are served and not overlooked. Also they have like 3 rooms and two of them have the ugliest carpet. I would not have chose this venue but it was all that was available at the time.
Any questions?
Pretty nice place , the only thing is that we paid 500 dollars on a open bar and my guest said there was no open bar .
The Trade Center is a great venue for the price! They will really work with you to give you exactly what you want. You have to use their caterers, but the food is really good so that was a plus for us.
I held my wedding reception at the Columbus Georgia Convention and Trade Center and it was wonderful. The food was amazing, the service was great, the room was beautiful, and all of the employees I dealt with from beginning to end were so very helpful! I asked to have my wine corks saved and they did! Everything was exactly as I asked also. It was perfect!
Everything was perfect at the Convention Center!
