Lakeside Event Space at Nuevo Modern Mexican and Tequil

corated beautifully! The food and drinks were fantastic. It was the loveliest evening with family and friends.

so seamless. She was a calming force in a terrible situation. I would have not been able to get through this without her! Fast forward to August 2021, we finally tied the knot and Jennifer and her team made our day absolutely perfect! From the food, to the drinks, the setup. They made our day so easy to just enjoy and not stress! The venue is by far the most beautiful place in Cleveland and we our so grateful for our Nuevo family!

wedding we were told the final invoice would be sent to us ASAP to get paid up. Days passed, and we still didn’t have our final bill yet, for the due date of 6/18. Also, the venue doesn’t have an easy method for payment like online options where invoice can be seen and gradually paid off. Payment was only done via phone calls reading off credit card numbers to run. The week of our wedding, me & my fiancé sent multiple emails to Jennifer with no response. It was 6/18, and we still had no response or invoice. 6/18 @12pm we took our wedding decor to Nuevo, and asked for Jennifer-she wasn’t present. So we left a note with them requesting that she please call us asap when she’s in. Now @3:00pm the day before our wedding aka day we need to be paid up we still had zero response or invoice, (also post multiple phone call attempts to her direct contact given, not Nuevo with no answer). At 4pm we had to check in at our hotel then go straight to our rehearsal/dinner. So now I have no time to get a cashier’s check to drop off as I planned, I’m now beyond stressed, & this is taking over my whole day. At 4:13pm 6/18 she sent an invoice. She also lied—saying the reason she was sending it so late was because she had tried to send it to my knot email instead. So on the way to my rehearsal I’m having to call to make this payment over the phone. There is an extra $1,000 cost to have the ceremony outside vs inside. Because she wasn’t sure of the weather situation, she didn’t run the payment this day as anticipated, (although clearly there are multiple better solutions to handle this scenario). Instead, she waited until the last hour of my wedding to ask for my card and run payment. The payment came back declined due to the large amount. (But I’d also like to add I didn’t receive a single notification from my bank regarding this incident which is not normal so also confused about this). Now if this had been dealt with earlier in advance on another day (like I had been trying to accomplish) I could’ve simply spoke with the bank and resolved this issue. But now it’s 10pm on my wedding night and I’m having to deal with payment. She also went to my parents as soon as the payment was declined before telling ME. Making my parents and us very uncomfortable and honestly embarrassing. Me and my husband paid for our wedding. NOT my parents who she has never spoke with before. It left me in tears of frustration. Also earlier in the day, my ceremony was scheduled to be outside. Now there had been one light rain sprinkle over about 10 minute time frame that day-we’d been shooting outside for photos the whole time. The understanding was my ceremony would be moved from the patio if rain was an issue right before ceremony and be held inside. No more clarification was made than that. My ceremony was at 4:30pm, I get there at 3pm to a fully covered patio with people eating their meals outside on my planned ceremony site. Neither my bridal party contact person or I were given any heads up of their weather call. Jen now explains that a weather call was made at 12pm for the 4:30pm event. So I got married inside with sun peaking out and people eating on the rain protected patio. Just a whole week of stress and frustration, and I’d hate for others to experience the same stress on/around their day

as, tacos and ice cream bar. I highly recommend Nuevo!

lot of curve balls but everything turned out better than we could have ever hoped.

eat service from the team! Jennifer and her team are beyond helpful! You can do simple and classic here or even dress it up to very formal! The space is perfect on the lake and open concept. There are not many modern venues in Cleveland. Nuevo is unique and fun!

drinks and ambiance, we couldn't have been happier. To this day, we still get comments on how cool it was to have an upscale taco bar as the meal at our wedding. One of my favorite parts about the venue is how unique it is without decor---I had to put minimal time and effort into adding a little "us" to the space. The private bar, bathrooms and 2nd floor patio views were just out of this world. Thank you to everyone at Nuevo for making our day absolutely perfect!

was impeccable. We have to thank Erin Kirven, Doug Caveny, and Jennifer for the attention they paid to our needs and requirements. One of them gets credit for the weather as well. It was mu daughter's intention to show her guests the best of Cleveland. Thank you to Nuevo for helping her to accomplish it. My only regret is that it is our last wedding.

it was perfect to step away from the dance floor and visit with friends and family. The coordinator, Erin, was fantastic. She had excellent, creative ideas to decorate the space, she was easy going and accommodating, and put together an absolute wonderful night. The food was delicious and everyone enjoyed the margaritas!

int! They carried out my vision 100%, and we didn’t have to worry about setting anything up the day of which was amazing. Highly recommend!!

place, especially in the summer!

sional, organized, accommodating, and most importantly, calm and flexible! Not only is the space unique, modern, and absolutely gorgeous, with views of Lake Erie and the Cleveland skyline, it also was close to all the downtown hotels and made all the logistics of the weekend so much easier. The food and drinks were excellent, and Erin and Zach (head chef) worked with us to create a unique menu that exactly suited our tastes, even accommodating our desire to be serve an almost entirely vegetarian menu without sacrificing creativity and taste. The on-site pastry chef, Jen, created a delicious and beautiful cake for a very reasonable price. Service throughout the night flowed very smoothly and didn't miss a beat. For anyone looking to host a wedding in downtown Cleveland, I cannot think of a more beautiful or unique space or a better team to work with! Can't thank them all enough for helping us put together a truly spectacular and memorable event!
