It's hard to even find words to describe this venue and all that comes with getting married here. If you are freshly engaged and venue shopping with full excitement and a vision of...
your big day being perfect like I was a year ago, look no further this is your place. From the very first interaction with Rachel we knew we'd be well taken care of here, she went above and beyond from the tour up until we were leaving for our grand exit to make all of our dreams come to life. If you book here, having Rachel as a wedding planner is a need, I can not give her enough praise, and compliments to explain how amazing she was to us. Your coordinator is your best friend on wedding day and the days/months before, and there is no-one better than her. The venue perks offered by Irongate were the best around, and having onsite cabins were beyond convient. The bridal suites were very spacious and made for comfort while getting ready. The staff was so kind, and willing to help with anything we needed. We got so many compliments by guests on how beautiful and original the venue was, and I couldn't agree more. I could go on and on but I will end it with saying if you want to have the wedding of your dreams, without having to worry about the venue side of things here is your sign to book Irongate, you will not regret it.
Irongate Equestrian Center was truly the best choice we could have made for a wedding venue. From the first tour through the end of the wedding night, we were amazed by the profess...
ionalism, communication, and beauty of this venue! The wedding coordinator, Rachel, is an amazing person. She was one of the reasons why we booked the venue! She truly cared about us and our vision for the day. We felt loved throughout the entire planning process! The venue itself is unique and gorgeous. We had a summer wedding and were able to hold our ceremony outside amongst trees and rolling fields. It was beautiful. Our reception was held inside the building and we loved how there was plenty of room for guests to mingle, dance, and enjoy themselves. Some guests even strolled around and explored the property. Every staff member was kind and welcoming. The bartenders were so much fun and made great drinks! By the end of the night, Rachel and her staff had organized my decor and belongings so that everything was ready to go when it was time to leave. If you are considering Irongate Equestrian Center, do yourself a favor and schedule a tour. You won't regret it!
Our wedding at IronGate Equestrian Center was truly a dream come true! The venue itself is breathtaking, with its stunning landscapes and elegant facilities that perfectly blended ...
rustic charm with modern amenities. The picturesque scenery provided the perfect backdrop for our special day, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the beauty of the location.
A huge shoutout to our wedding coordinator, Rachel, who was absolutely phenomenal. From the very first meeting, she was incredibly organized, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our day perfect. She handled every detail with grace and professionalism, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Rachel's expertise and dedication allowed us to relax and fully enjoy our wedding day without any worries.
We couldn't have asked for a better venue or coordinator. IronGate Equestrian Center and Rachel made our wedding unforgettable, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for an extraordinary wedding experience!! 🤍🤍🤍

ive. She helped us bring our dream day to life by giving amazing vendor recommendations, creating a timeline specific to our special day, and executing every single detail better than I ever could have imagined. She was open to all of my ideas and always responded to my emails/texts/phone calls timely.
We cannot imagine a better place to get married! It was the most magical day thanks to Rachel and her team. We highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful venue and an experienced coordinator who will execute your vision flawlessly.

rtunities that make every event truly magical. The beautiful front facade has such charm, and the large, old trees combined with the meticulously manicured property create a majestic backdrop for our couples. And let’s not forget the sunsets at Irongate—they are absolutely stunning! If you're looking for a venue that combines natural beauty with elegance, Irongate is the perfect choice.

tch. The physical venue itself is beautiful and we couldn't have asked for more. Getting married Labor Day weekend, we had a bit of a warm and humid day, and the facilities were air conditioned perfectly and our guests were comfortable from start to finish. The bridal and groom suites didn't leave us wanting for anything, and the getting ready spaces were perfect. We truly can't recommend Irongate enough, and are so happy with our decision to choose them as the venue for our special day.
LOVED every single detail about my wedding and all of the planning leading up to the special day!!! I was so fortunate to have Rachel Nyhart be there every step of the way to help ...
me with whatever I needed when I needed it. Rachel was very prompt with her responses, confident with answers (which made me confident), so pleasant / helpful with my vendors, did all of my decor setup wedding day, collected my decor/cards & gifts/ leftover food and locked it in her office for us to grab that night and leave without the worry of having to collect it all ourselves, and on my wedding day she was there from 8AM-10:30PM helping with literally everything. All of IronGate staff was so accommodating too and so helpful with our guests and family. The venue was SO clean and omg smelled so good with the cleaning on our wedding day and candles lit. 100% recommend IronGate Equestrian Center for any couple who wants a beautiful venue, great staff and an overall perfect experience. We just cannot stop reminiscing the day. <3

e and continually willing to go above and beyond for my husband and I! (Still can't believe I get to call him my husband!!) Alyssa was also incredibly helpful and was there to help in every way possible! Neither one of us has ever been married before and we really haven't attended many weddings but I can not tell you how many of our loved ones are STILL talking about how amazing this venue was, how attentive and hard working the staff was, and how much fun they had! I cannot say enough about Rachel's attention to detail and determination to make that day the best day of my life!!
rongate Equestrian Center is truly an amazing venue for any wedding! I have always dreamed of having Irongate as my venue ever since my sister's wedding there, and my dream came tr...
ue. The space is magnificent and magical. My husband and I elected to have the full planning package with full coordination for our wedding, and I cannot recommend this enough! Rachel Nyhart was our coordinator and she helped us plan every single thing down to the small details. I could not have done it without her to talk to constantly! Not only is Irongate simply beautiful, but I personally was a bride with a vision that I wanted to see come to life. I told Rachel I really wanted a forum/table set up to display my mom's wedding dress, my dad's military uniform, my grandmother's wedding dress, and my mother in law's wedding dress all displayed on white mannequins. I wanted a museum feel to it so our guests could read about our families and look at the various dresses during cocktail hour. Rachel was so accommodating and said this wouldn't be a problem and together we made it happen! So many people commented on how unique this display was and how they had never seen it before. As I said above it, was truly my dream come to life! I wish I had a picture, it was stunning. In addition to that, I told Rachel we wanted a live band, a candy station, his and hers drinks themed after our dogs, a cold brew station, and Jeni's ice cream at our wedding, and she made it ALL happen!! I had so many details planned in my head for years and everything I ever wanted became a reality thanks to Irongate and Rachel! Having a live band is a lot of extra work and very tricky to pull off, but it all worked out perfectly thanks to Rachel. I also want to add that we selected to have a sparkler send off as part of our package for the wedding, and due to a winter blizzard, we could not do this because the sparklers would not light. Irongate gave us a refund for this cost due to the weather issues, and we appreciated this excellent customer service. Our wedding at Irongate was truly the BEST DAY OF MY LIFE! Many of our guests for the weeks and months afterwards have told us it was the best wedding they had ever been to! I was the happiest bride in the world and I wish I could relive the day again and again!

g to our unique special traditions. Rachel responded to all our questions during the booking, and was available for questions throughout our wedding process. She worked so well with our other vendors and did her best to problem solve and help us whenever we needed it. Irongate is such a unique space and the details throughout the space just added a beautiful touch to our wedding. We loved their selection of table / reception decor that can be added to your contract as it made decorating for our event so much easier. The in-house calligraphy and signage was wonderful too! Everyone loved the venue and all the little touches. We would definitely recommend this space to others if it fits within your budget!
We arrived at IronGate after visiting three very popular wedding venues in the Columbus. The three before had not been remotely cleaned up the from the prior night, which we did no...
t think anything of. However, when we opened the doors at IronGate we were greeted by Rachel Nyhart and as we went throughout our tour we were awestruck by the fact that we did not see a single piece of trash, dirty glass, or leftover clothing from the night before. We asked if there had been a wedding there the night before and she said “yes”.
Rachel was extremely personable, understanding, and helpful when it came to planning our wedding. She was also there for the entire wedding day to help out however she could without being overbearing at all. We have been amazed with how on top of everything she was and how kind she was! She truly made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process despite of how nervous I was!
Our wedding day was perfect and we can’t thank Rachel and the people at IronGate enough!!
Irongate is a beautiful wedding venue, from set up to tear down they made everything so easy for us.
We had the best experience at the IronGate. It’s an absolutely beautiful venue, and Rachel is the best planner you could ever ask for. She’s beyond helpful, has everything planned ...
down to the exact detail, we cannot recommend the venue or Rachel enough.
We stayed at the cabins with our bridesmaids the night before our wedding and in the cabins by ourselves the night of the wedding. The venue was absolutely amazing and Rachel was o...
ne of the best wedding coordinators ever! She was very helpful with everything and went above and beyond to make sure Noelle and I felt very special on our wedding day. Because of Rachel, we got to enjoy the best day of our life’s!!! They were very inclusive for everyone here! 🏳️🌈🤍💍
Thank you Rachel for your support and being the best wedding coordinator. Hopefully we were a good first run for your first lesbian wedding! 🏳️🌈😍🤍

tails and made this day special for me. We went with the complete coordination package and it was worth EVERY penny. We went into this day with NO stress at all and it was beautiful. Rachel and her team went above and beyond the entire day to ensure we were having the day we dreamed of. Our guests loved the venue and have not stopped talking about how much fun they had. We opted to stay in the rental cabins on property the night before and the night of, which gave our wedding party a home-base and made the logistics of the day even easier. Thank you Irongate!!!!
