Drees Pavilion

event. I’d strongly recommend considering a different location or requesting a different coordinator if that’s possible. It’s so unfortunate that this is what is remembered from the event…

the entire team for making my day so special. This venue is beautiful and Drees makes your day stress free and takes your wedding vision and brings it to life! People were telling us this was the best venue they have ever been to. BOOK WITH DREES!

heck out the contract, because there is SO much included -- especially the set up and tear down -- that was so valuable to me and my family and took stress away from us, so we could focus on celebrating together!

e our big day. We arrived to everything setup and it was a beautiful 1st day of Spring ceremony.

and the coordinator made sure things ran smoothly during the entire day. As a bride, this gave me a lot of relief. I didn't have to worry about a single thing that day other than enjoying our wedding. I can't recommend them enough! Love, love, love!

f any items for the wedding during the week leading up to it, making it easier for our other vendors as well. You could tell that the Drees staff has worked together with many of our other vendors and everything ran like a well-oiled machine. Carolyn, our day of coordinator, covered every detail possible during our final prep meeting and even found us in the shadows during the reception to see if we needed anything.

nia and Scott were extremely personable and organized throughout the decision/planning process, making sure every detail is in place for the night of. Sonia put me at ease with her prompt response and recommendations while Scott was the one who showed us around answering questions and creating custom diagrams for our seating preferences and our large guest count/band. Carolyn was our event coordinator that evening. As soon as we met with her the week before, I knew she was going to be on top of it. When the night came, she (and the rest of the service staff) truly went above and beyond to make sure everyone had everything they needed and more. We are still getting compliments on the service and how no one waited for anything the entire evening! They even packed up my mom's car for her at the end of the night with gifts/decor, complete with two boxed meals for my husband and I to enjoy! Highly highly recommend Drees Pavilion, not only for the best views of Cincinnati, but for unparalleled service throughout the entire process, start to finish.

so you don’t have to. They will make sure you always have the drink of choice in your hand and make sure you have time to enjoy the wedding yourself. All of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever attended! I truly have no complaints, everything went according to plan, and I will have very fond memories of this wonderful day for the rest of my life!

y. Thanks also to the great staff esp. Sonia. You certainly know how to put on a terrific party - no one wanted to leave!

hey did to make our wedding day an absolute dream. Responses were always prompt, and everyone involved through the planning process has been so kind. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!

l! She took care of my husband and I as well as all of our guests. The room was set up exactly how I wanted and I couldn't have been happier with the outcome. I highly recommend using Drees Pavilion!

We were treated like royalty. The venue it self is so nice with the outside patio and view of the city! Her night was just perfect we want to do it all over again!!!

d, patient and understanding. They worked so hard to make sure our reception was perfect- not a single detail was missed. We had such a memorable reception and are so happy we chose Drees! I can't recommend Drees Pavilion enough!!! You will not be disappointed!!

that we and our guests were comfortable. The weather was perfect and everything looked amazing! Great job and can't recommend highly enough. I wish they had a discount if you invest in a Drees home - or vice versa.

us from this venue. The majority of our guests were in from out-of-town and they were blown away by the venue. It was so clean and the grounds were beautiful. Plus there is ample parking for all our folks who drove themselves. My husband and I lucked out and were able to secure the last Saturday during the summer months after sitting on a waiting list. The Drees staff was so polite and nice while I anxiously waited for the date to become available -- Sonia, the coordinator at Drees -- called me the second we could book because she knew I was going to be waiting by the phone. She walked me through what would be the next 11 months of planning for my husband and I. She answered every single email throughout the planning process very quickly and was so helpful when I started to stress about the small details. Any time I felt the need to tour the venue, she was ready to receive me -- even when my Mom came in to town, she agreed to open the building and let us walk around. The Drees staff has timeline templates that helped me plan the whole day and then set up a meeting between myself, the caterer and our day-of-wedding coordinator that was also provided by Drees. It kept me from having to hire out another person to handle the day-of details. Janine, our day of coordinator, took all my stress away. She also took all the stress away for my parents and in-laws. She handled everything and any small question I had, she immediately took care of. I felt so special and taken care of throughout the whole day. They held on to all of our things over the weekend so I didn't have to do any clean-up post wedding... I was able to just leave with my husband to enjoy the rest of our night! I cannot say enough nice things about this venue and the staff that works there. I recommend Drees Pavilion to everyone I meet!

ur family needs and made sure everything went smoothly. I could not have asked for a better venue!

ghout the planning stages. The ceremony was also at Drees and Sonia and Carolyn coordinated the whole process. I truly was amazed at their clockwork precision in moment by moment planning of the entire evening. We received so many compliments ! We had a few special requests and needs through the evening and Carolyn always said "yes we can take care of that"! I also was very happy at the choice of McHales, food was great and a very professional staff!

ry tale was black and white with cigar and open bar; anything traditional or princessy would have made me lose composure). Again, to Scott's credit--composure was never lost and that is because he and his team knew every detail and remained constantly one step ahead of us all. My husband and I intended to drive ourselves off into the moonlight; without any hesitation Scott drove us himself. People are still talking about Scott and Drees commitment to excellence and it's been almost a year. Beautiful scenery, attention to detail and a mastery of event production.

at weather on a Sunday night! We received so many positive comments from our guests about how wonderful everything was. The Drees staff were easy to work with. They helped guide the planning process and accommodated our individual requests. The day-of-coordinator was so helpful too, assuring things progressed on schedule and anticipating our needs throughout the night. The food from McHale's Catering looked and tasted great (seated dinner). The staff of Drees and McHale's work together often and that coordination helped make everything go very well. Very impressed! I highly recommend Drees Pavilion!

them!!

ils meeting prior to the wedding and worked with what I envisioned. They were great with contacting all of our vendors to coordinate setup. They even made sure my husband and I had cake and dinner to bring with us back to our hotel the night of! The drees staff made sure that our parents and us always had a drink in hand since we were so busy talking to our guests the whole night. We had so many compliments from guests on our reception location. It was absolutely beautiful and I wouldn't have changed a thing.

kept telling us to check Drees, but we thought the price would be way too much). When we did finally meet with Drees, we fell in love! The availability was very slim (for Saturday book 1.5 years ahead of time, Friday about 1 year), but for good reason! The whole process with them was great. They answered all our questions quickly, they explained the timeline easily and provided suggestions, and they set up and coordinated with all the vendors. As far as price goes, it was pretty reasonable for what you get in return. It does add up when you start changing linen colors or adding chair covers, etc, but still worth it. Last comment, it was a little tough to keep people on the dance floor because it was a gorgeous day and everyone wanted to be out on the back patio. Possible suggestion would be to have the dance floor outside in the back. We would have done this if we did it all over. Regardless, Drees went over and beyond our expectations and we would without a doubt, do it all over again!

all your needs. They made sure that all our other vendors were contacted and on the same page. Every staff member was professional and absolutely amazing! The venue was worth every penny and we would do it all over again!
