The Bluestone

The Bluestone was a wonderful place to have our reception! The coordinator, Kayla, really was professional, listened carefully and was so kind. We really enjoyed working with the Bluestone. Along with that, it was beautiful!! So many people complimented the venue on the beauty, the wonderful servers, and how GOOD the food was. They also had spacious parking lots and easy decor pickup/dropoff. We could not recommend it more!

I cannot say enough good things about this beautiful venue! Everyone was fantastic to work with. You don’t only get the entire venue, you also get KAYLA as a coordinator who is truly the absolute best at what she does. Everything was seamless, she had solutions for every ask, and I was able to truly enjoy my day. The food is fantastic, far better than any wedding food I’ve ever had. The venue is so versatile, our photos are amazing in every room. 10000/10 you will not regret The Bluestone for your big day!

We absolutely LOVED The Bluestone and everyone working there. The personality of the building is really unique and interesting, and everyone that worked there was so incredibly nice. Our event coordinator was Kayla Hesselbein and she was amazing to work with from the very beginning. She helped us immensely throughout the process and was a very calming and supportive presence on the day of, which was very nice. The staff also took great care of us throughout the day and were so helpful anytime we needed some help with anything. All of the menu options that we chose were so, so tasty. Lastly, the venue is absolutely gorgeous and has amazing vibes. The venue and staff helped make our day an amazing one and we couldn’t ask for a better place to celebrate our wedding.

The bluestone was amazing. The venue itself is beautiful and unique. Kayla our coordinator was on it with every little detail and we can’t thank her enough. She made everything so easy. Our guests raved about the food and the staff/servers were so attentive to us and and our guests.

Such a great venue! We absolutely loved having our wedding and reception at The Bluestone. Kayla and the staff were so easy to work with throughout the entire planning process and actual event. The entire evening was flawlessly executed and we couldn’t have asked for more.

The Bluestone was an absolutely gorgeous venue for our event. The food and service provided was excellent and looking back this may have been one of the easiest decisions we made during our journey. Kayla was also incredibly helpful and responsive. Planning a wedding over 400 miles away is not an easy task but Kayla delivered and made the night everything I imagined and more.

Our wedding date was planned for 7/11/20; then, COVID delayed our plans. Even before that time, our event coordinator, Kayla, was helpful and patient when we went through our first planning steps. Once vaccines became readily available, we started the planning process again with Kayla. Throughout our experience, all of the staff we interacted with at The Bluestone were professional, making the experience seamless. The venue was once a Baptist church, with lends to its character. Wood floors in the main room made a perfect dance floor with the light through the stained glass windows during golden hour, adding to the ambiance of our event. The Bluestone is a one-stop venue. The food was fantastic, the bar fully stocked, and the staff, I cannot convey how great the staff was. The price point was also perfect for what we were looking for. If you are looking for a stellar wedding venue that you and your guests would enjoy for any event, look no further than The Bluestone.

LOVED working with the Bluestone. Kayla is absolutely wonderful. No complaints.

The Bluestone is a beautiful venue and the wedding coordinator and staff were amazing! They did all the work and made our daughter’s wedding magical. Highly recommend.

The Bluestone was amazing and we could not have asked for a better day! We had the venue booked form early 2019 and had to move it due to Covid and actually had our wedding October 2021. They did not charge us anything additional, Kayla, their amazing wedding coordinator, was super communicative the whole time and the day was set up and planned as if we never moved it. The attention to detail and care they had for us and our guests was so apparent in everything that was set up, the timing of the schedule of the day and clean up and storage of all of our belongings and decor afterwards. The venue is beautiful and the staff, shout out specifically to Kayla, is amazing! I would definitely book my wedding here over and over again! 10/10 recommend :)

I cannot put into words how amazing our wedding was at The Bluestone. Weeks later our guests are still talking about how beautiful the venue is, how delicious the food and drinks were, and how wonderful the staff was. Everything was so perfect and it was all due to the event coordinator Kayla. We had a vision for our wedding and Kayla made it come true. We booked The Bluestone for it’s beauty, but Kayla really is the shining star!

Amazing, beautiful venue! Historic, but modern at the same time! The stained glass windows and facade make for beautiful wedding pictures. It was awesome getting married up on the stage too. The day of coordinator Sarah was amazing and so helpful. The Bluestone was a perfect place to get married because you can have both the ceremony and reception there. They flip the room in between for you, while guests enjoy the beautiful cocktail room or the patio. The price was so great for a place of this size and for the amount of add-ons you get. They are very organized and communicated well during planning. We loved the food and the way they set everything up for us! Overall, I would definitely recommend this venue! We only had one small problem with them right at the end of the wedding. We had been told that we could pick up our decorations the next day, but at the end of the night, the staff made us take everything with us. It was an unfortunate communication error, but what really put a damper on our night was how rude the clean up staff was to us on our way out. They were throwing our decorations in boxes very haphazardly, touching our personal items like clothes and purses (not part of their job) and basically pushing us out the door, well before our allotted time was up. I also didn't appreciate them bothering me - the bride - with a bunch of questions as I was trying to leave for my honeymoon. An unfortunate way to end the night, when everything else up to that point was so great working with the Bluestone. Just make sure there is an end of the night plan with them. I would still highly recommend this venue though.

Picking The Bluestone to be our reception venue was such a great decision. Kayla was our main contact and she was wonderful to work with! She was super responsive to emails and questions and was very flexible with changing ideas. She did such a wonderful job setting up our centerpieces and all of the miscellaneous tables the day of and was so good at keeping the cocktail hour and reception flowing. Not only did everything come together so well, without any hiccups, but the space itself is so beautiful. Wooden floors, lofty ceiling and gorgeous stained glass windows set the stage perfectly for a beautiful reception. The food was fantastic, the drinks were plentiful, and the service from the bartenders and waiters/waitresses was great as well. We received so many compliments on the space itself and the service. My husband and I were so happy with the decision to have our reception at The Bluestone.

Our guests cannot stop talking about what a great time they had at The Bluestone on our wedding day! Planning was straightforward and Kayla politely answered all of our crazy questions, and the day of the party was seamless. Kayla worked in hand with our other vendors as well to make sure all was set and ready. Would definitely recommend!

I would 100% recommend The Bluestone as a wedding venue. Sarah, the event coordinator, was incredibly responsive and so helpful - I don't know what we would have done without her. The Bluestone itself was absolutely gorgeous - we had minimal decorations for the wedding and reception because the space itself is so beautiful. The food was delicious and the wait staff and servers were incredibly friendly and helpful. Sarah and The Bluestone have great relationships with a ton of vendors, so coordinating with everyone went very smoothly. Our wedding was the best day ever, and The Bluestone played a huge role in making it so.

This venue is the best!! The venue is beautiful with their stained glass windows, high ceilings and cool music vibes. Sarah was a dream to work with and I literally had nothing to worry about. Everything on our day of was seamless and Sarah took my vision and brought it to life. Our guests were obsessed with the service and how unique the space is. If you are looking for a premier wedding venue in downtown Columbus look no further then The Bluestone.

The Bluestone was way beyond what we expected. Sarah and staff were very helpful throughout the planning process and setup everything the day of. Our guests said it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. You made everything much easier and answered all our questions. The venue was beautiful and unlike anything else out there.

I fell in love with the Bluestone the first time I walked in. It was the best venue I could have asked for. We had our reception there in July 2018 and not only did our it look beautiful but the staff was incredible. The servers had exceptional service and my husband and I always had a drink in our hand. There was a huge thunder storm on our wedding day and the entire staff waited outside to make sure the bridal party made it into the venue as dry as possible. They also helped clean up afterwards which helped my family a lot. The food was delicious and the minor changes we made at our tasting were carried through the day of. Sarah and her staff made the planning process so easy and took care of everything on the day of. The reception was exactly as I had hoped for and then some. I would recommend this venue 100 times over. I can't imagine going anywhere else. I can't say enough about this venue...it was THE BEST.

In addition to being a stunning and fun venue, the Bluestone’s staff is phenomenal. Sarah and her team provide incredible support through the whole process. The food was delightful, the price point was reasonable for a downtown summer wedding and we loved not having to share our venue with other couples. All of our other vendors also loved working at the Bluestone. Our wedding day was perfect and we highly recommend this venue!!!

Sarah was a huge help in the months leading up to our big day. The whole staff at the Bluestone made sure our ceremony and reception were perfect. We couldn’t have been happier with everything.

If you want a large, versatile, funky, urban space for your wedding that comes with a team of professionals who care about you living your best day on your wedding day, the Bluestone is for you. We started planning our wedding from a few states away, and the Bluestone staff, Jess in particular, made this ridiculously easy. When we were initially looking at venues, they were upfront about costs and sent several proposals with different scenarios. After we booked with them, Jess checked in with us regularly via email, and it was always easy to contact them by phone. They were always ready to arrange a visit to the venue when we happened to be in town. Jess helped us think through our wedding day and handled our stress like the pro she is. She had or found answers for every question or concern we expressed. On the day of, Jess and the rest of the Bluestone staff were just incredible; we really can’t thank them enough or do their work justice. They were friendly, professional, and knew exactly what needed to be done. Switching the sanctuary from the ceremony to the reception space was smooth and fast, and their food service was spectacular. Debbie and the rest of the wait staff were attentive, and the venue was flexible in terms of stocking the bar with some of our favorites at no additional cost. Let’s talk about clean-up. They handle everything. We left when we were ready and came back ready to corral and pack up our supplies. When we got there we discovered that the staff had already packed everything for us – even more carefully than we had done. We put it in our car and away we went! Jess and the Bluestone staff are consummate professionals who genuinely care about you and making your vision a success. Have a lack of vision or don’t know where to start? Not to worry, they have that covered too. You cannot go wrong having your wedding and reception at the Bluestone.

We could not be happier with our experience wedding experience here! Here's a list of the things that the Bluestone did that made us feel like they went above and beyond for us! 1. I'm not a huge wedding person, so I didn't care about a lot of the responsibilities the bride has in wedding planning, which of course can be an issue during the planning process lol. I basically gave the bluestone random arrangements and items for the centerpieces and other decor and said "do whatever you want with this, It doesn't matter to me as long as it looks decent." And so they did, without any hesitation, and they made the venue look incredible! Everyone kept saying how beautiful it was! 2. Unfortunately, we needed security for our wedding because we were anticipating crashers (historically violent and malicious estranged family). Thankfully, the Bluestone comes with a security guard! Their security officer was AWESOME. We did, in fact, end up having one of the suspected people try to crash the wedding, but no one ever knew it happened, and I didn't even know until the night was over, because he caught and removed the immediately. When she was kicked out, she tried to call the cops to crash the reception, but security met them at the front door and explained to them that the person who called was an unwelcomed guest. So no one knew the police showed up either! Flawless work by the security guard on thwarting the problem! 3. They let us bring all of our items to the rehearsal the night before and leave them there. One of these items was a 300 pound arch made of railroad ties, that they let my dad in early so he could build it on the stage. All of these items were able to be left over night to pick up the following monday as well. 4. They told us they could have someone there to let us in as early as needed. There were at least 2 people that were in sight ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT for anything we needed. They didn't hover, but they were always nearby so you could always find them when you needed them, and we were never without a drink! 5. They asked what we wanted waiting for us the morning of while we got ready. All I asked for was coffee, but we showed up and found we had hot coffee ready to go, bottled water, various types of soda's (off the top of my head I remember coke, diet coke, sprite), orange juice, and champagne for mimosas. They also supplied cups, ice, and champagne flutes for the drinks! 6. I asked for a signature drink a week before the wedding, and they happily obliged, and even went out and bought all the additional items needed to make the drink itself. 7. THE FOOD! The apps are all awesome (we had none left over!), but so was dinner! We were so happy to find it tasted good because we're so used to going to weddings with dried meat and bland dishes. Their chef is great! 8. The coordinator! Jess is honestly a great coordinator, but also just a great person as well. When I had to have the embarrassing talk of the "unwanted guests", she was so caring and worked diligently to show me that they would do all they could to keep them from ruining our night, and she followed through! She locked all the doors from the outside except for one so no one could sneak in through the back, locked our cards/gifts away in her office so no one could steal them, and helped keep an eye out! She also did so well with helping me make choices for all the things I wasn't sure of or needed. She's the best! We are so happy we chose The Bluestone!

There are not enough stars for me to give Sarah and her team at the Bluestone. From meeting with me, to answering ALL of my emails & phone calls, to planning my tasting, helping me with the rehearsal to being a saving grace on my wedding day...she is LITERALLY the BEST! When I say the Bluestone does EVERYTHING, they do more than that! And this is just the AMAZING team. The venue itself is naturally GORGEGOUS and HUGE! On top of all of that, they have a great wedding suite that my entire wedding party got ready in, while the boys were downstairs getting ready. We had our ceremony inside, we used the outdoor patio for cocktail hour and they had 2 bars so no one ever went thirsty. They even had an upstairs inside area we could have used for cocktail hour if the weather did not cooperate, knowing this kept me very calm days leading up to the wedding. If i can add anything else, the food was great and the service was amazing. Debbie made sure myself, husband and bridal party never went thirsty. She partied with us but always with a drink in hand for someone!!! I truly cannot say enough amazing things about this venue and their team!

After I found the perfect man to marry I needed to find the perfect venue to be married in, and The Bluestone was just that! Not only was it one of the most cost-effective places I found in the Columbus-area, the venue is made by its gorgeous ambiance, spacious rooms, and spectacular staff. One of the biggest hidden gems of The Bluestine is Sarah Downs, one of the bridal coordinators. She was such a joy to work with and made the planning process and day-of go seamlessly. I could not recommend this venue any higher for a bride looking in the Columbus area.

The Bluestone staff and venue were really fantastic at meeting our needs for our wedding in early July. They were attentive and responsive before during and after the event. Venue is gorgeous and the food was fantastic. All of our guests had a fabulous time!!

Having our wedding at The Bluestone was hands-down the best decision we made throughout all of our planning! The venue is absolutely gorgeous (a two-story former church that is now a concert/special event venue). We decided to have our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception there. Not only did every one of our guests have a view, but the sound quality is amazing since they have concert-quality speakers hanging above the stage. We have been to so many weddings where we weren’t able to see the first dance or hear the toasts, but The Bluestone puts all those worries to bed. It was easy for the DJ to hook up to the sound system and actually saved us some money since the DJ didn’t have to transport his own speakers. We worked with Sarah and she was the best wedding coordinator we could have asked for. You could tell she was extremely experienced and knew exactly what she was doing, from our first meeting with her to days after the wedding. She joined us for rehearsal the night before, was active in communication with us, our DJ, our photographer, and anyone else who had questions. We are so thankful for her and Carin! Our only complaint were two bartenders that were fairly rude to our guests. We had several people complain about the same two bartenders. The food was phenomenal…all of our guests raved about how great the hors d'oeuvres and dinner were. Overall, we are so happy we had our wedding at The Bluestone and would love if we could replay it one more time!

The Bluestone is the best place to get married in downtown Columbus hands down! From the beginning their communication was quick and knowledgeable! I worked with Sarah throughout our year and a half planning process. (Yes, you must book this far ahead if you are doing a summer wedding on a Saturday!) Sarah answered all my questions and replied to every email. On the day of the wedding the staff there took great care of us! We were never without a drink in our hands and they even put the appetizers from cocktail hour in our room since we were taking photos during that time! The staff set up the reception exactly how I wanted without me providing a picture. They are very experienced and know how to make it look good! You have to use their in house caterer and that was fine by me! Everyone raved over the great food! After the wedding, they tear everything down for you and pack it up in your car. Now that's service! Thank you for making my wedding absolutely flawless!

This place is absolutely amazing! It is not only gorgeous but the service is top notch. Sarah Downs is a magic worker and the wait staff was awesome to our guests. Have your wedding here!

My wife and I would highly recommend the Bluestone as a wedding venue. We had our reception there in May and it was a fantastic experience throughout the planning process, but especially on our big day. The staff there, especially the coordinator, Sarah, went well above and beyond the call of duty to ensure every detail of our celebration went off without a hitch. It was a pleasure working with such a professional group of people who took such exceptional care of us and our guests. We've heard so much back from our friends and family since the wedding about how much the loved the Bluestone. The architecture is charming; the service is superb.

The Bluestone held a lot of significance to my husband and I so we wanted to have our wedding day revolve around our favorite place. The Bluestone has so much character and depth and was absolutely gorgeous for the traditional ceremony we wanted. While the staff flipped the space (amazingly fast!), our guests got to enjoy cocktail hour on the patio before dinner. The reception was beautifully laid out and, following dinner and traditions, became a hot dance party for our fun and crazy college friends. You really can't find a more perfect party venue in Columbus! The staff is outstanding- they are what make the venue exceed 5 stars!! Sarah is a sweetheart and a superstar coordinator- there are no small details that she misses! She will help in any way she can, always going above and beyond. Her finesse and guidance are what helped me as the bride trust the wedding day would be smooth sailing. Jess was also a joy to work with and was extremely kind and knowledgeable. Debbie is one of the servers, and is just wonderful! She made sure the bridesmaids and I were taken care of 24/7 and told us if we were having fun, her "old bones" were having fun. She is the sweetest, spunkiest, most attentive gal and also waited on the parents/ families during the reception. Our parents are still in love with her! The bartenders were also fantastic and had great personalities the guests really enjoyed. The food was delicious, service first class, and unique atmosphere unbeatable. Guests have been raving about it nonstop! Our wedding was everything we had hoped for and more. The Bluestone is worth every dollar spent!

I can't believe our special day is over! Our wedding day was so incredible from start to finish and we have Sarah Downs and the amazing staff at the Bluestone to thank for that! They made sure that everything ran smoothly, from setting up the bridal party suite, ceremony and reception, to making sure everything was in place before I walked down the aisle, to helping out our grandpa get through the line to get his food, to providing exceptional service to all guests throughout the night, to making sure everyone got to their cars safely after the reception. Everything about our night was magical and we will have these wonderful memories forever!

Simply fantastic. The entire staff at the Bluestone went out of their way to make the wedding of Alex and Audreyana exceptional. From setting up large trees to create winter forest, to the small details of perfectly setting the table decorations, they made it magical. The plated dinner was great, the meals came out to each guests request, hot and delicious, the servers were attentive and efficient, the bar made great drinks, the security detail was polite and conscientious, the lighting crew perfectly lit up the stage, trees and the dance floor, and the coat check was perfect for the guest coats and wraps on the cold winter evening. Sara was a delight to work with. She was there from our first tour, through communicating to an out of state Bride-to-be, to assisting with guest arrival and making sure this wedding was just how we had imagined. The evening was enjoyed by everyone.

We are from Cincinnati and booked The Bluestone for our daughter's wedding without ever seeing it. Crazy, I know, but our daughter, who lives in Columbus, said she had heard great things and after talking to a few other people who had attended weddings there and looking at reviews and pictures online, we decided to take the plunge. It was a great decision. I can't say enough wonderful things about The Bluestone! The venue is absolutely beautiful! Sarah, our wedding planner, took care of everything down to the last little detail. The entire staff was attentive throughout the night. We had guests commenting on the great service. Debbie seemed to be everywhere we needed her the entire evening and even loaded the gifts into our car at the end of the night. Our photographer, also from Cincinnati, loved all of the great spots for photos. The band said it is one of their very favorite venues. I would give it more stars if I could!

This is hands down the BEST wedding venue there is. There is honestly no reason to look anywhere else! I could write a novel about how amazing this place was for my wedding. We had around 200 guests (even some who forgot to RSVP...really - and Sarah took care of it no problem) every single guest commented about how there was some kind of magic in the air and that our wedding was the perfect mix of elegant and fun thanks to the Bluestone. The staff is unlike any I have experienced. During our wedding the staff made sure everything was perfect, even when a guest knocked over a large vase with a candle (wax everywhere) and busted it, Sarah's staff had a brand new vase and candle in its place before I came down the aisle. I didn't even notice, I was told after the fact! Matt who works there was so incredible - he found a pillow for my grandfather's back, helped my family friend with arthritis down the stairs and made sure she got to her table and got anything she needed. We found out these things after the fact - and so wish we had a way of thanking him for his above and beyond kindness!! A guest even lost their cell phone and the staff ran around until they found it! A wonderful waitress named Deb also made sure my parents were taken care of with drinks all night long, she was so sweet and even joined us on the dance floor. The staff made sure the bridal party had everything they needed the entire night. Centerpieces are one thing I totally obsessed over and wanted to be so perfect, I was nervous about not being able to set them up myself when they turned over the reception, however, the staff made my centerpieces EXACTLY as I wanted and every single table looked perfect. They even take care of all of the clean up and place all of your things together so you can easily come pick it up the next day and just enjoy your wedding night. The BEST part, is now one of my bridesmaids and one of my husband's groomsmen will now be getting married at The Bluestone, so we get to experience this amazing venue again and we could not be more thrilled!! HIGHLY recommend!

We loved the Bluestone and staff. Jess, in particular was wonderful. She called all our vendors to coordinate, was incredibly accommodating with all the changes and details we asked for, and was excellent with her communication. We wanted a venue that wasn't a reception hall or country club and the Bluestone gave us the space, service and character we were looking for. I can't even count the number of guests that came up to us and told us it was one of the nicest weddings they have been to. We had a few guests with food allergies and the kitchen staff even made a point to visit each of them to make sure their selections didn't cause any reactions; this was very reassuring, especially to our friends with a child with peanut allergies. That is above and beyond. The wait staff asked what my wife and I were drinking and always had a fresh drink ready to go, and everyone who worked there addressed us by name, which was a very nice touch. We can't thank the staff enough and would absolutely recommend the Bluestone for a wedding.

I could never say enough about the Bluestone. They were absolutely PERFECT and better than I could've ever imagined for our big day. Service was outstanding. They made sure that everyone in the bridal party was taken care of at ALL times throughout the night. Sarah, our coordinator was the sweetest and most helpful person before and during the ceremony/reception. She allowed us to drop things off at the venue early, hang out all day, brought us refreshments, champagne and wine when we needed it and all with a smile on her face. The venue looked PERFECT-better than I had in mind. The decorating crew placed everything so that it looked just right. We got SO many compliments on how cool the place was from our guests. I wouldnt change a thing about the night. THANK YOU BLUESTONE for the wedding of our dreams!!

The Bluestone exceeded all expectation for our wedding day. Sarah was amazing in helping us plan our day. From start to finish she was always happy to help and timely in responses. She really takes pride in her job and making sure your day is more special than you even imagined. We got SO many compliments from our guests about how beautiful it was. It really was the most perfect reception. 10 stars!!!

Recently had our wedding at The Bluestone. We had no issues whatsoever! Our coordinator, Jess was amazing. She was even able to help a guest whose shoe broke. Thanks to Deb to looking out for the bridal party and parents! Everyone at The Bluestone went above and beyond to make the day perfect! I wholeheartedly recommend this venue to any engaged couple!

I loved every thing about The Bluestone from the very first time I went there for a country concert. I jokingly said "I'm going to get married here some day!".. Fast forward a few years, I got engaged and The Bluestone was the one and only venue my fiancé and I looked at. We knew right away it was perfect for us. The space itself is absolutely beautiful, and the environment was exactly what we were looking for. The staff is amazing and was always willing to answer my questions and help in the planning leading up the day. I always felt taken care of and cared for, which is crucial during such an important time. Everyone is still raving about how delicious the food was and how wonderful the wait staff was! Some of them even danced the night away with us, which we loved! The only thing that did surprise me a little bit was I didn't see much of the "day of coordinator" on the actual day. I provided detailed instructions of how I wanted everything set up, so it could have been that she knew exactly what to do and didn't want to bother me but it would have been nice to see her and hear how all of the set up was going. Also, had the Rehearsal the night before, we didn't receive as much direction as we would have liked. We were hoping she would take charge and make sure everyone knew exactly what to do, but most of our bridal party (including my fiancé and I) left with quite a few unanswered questions. All that being said, choosing The Bluestone was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and we wouldn't change a thing. This venue was absolutely perfect and made our day the best one of our lives. Everyone should consider having their wedding here, you will not regret it!

My husband and I set up a tour of the Bluestone because we used to attend concerts there when we first met. We thought it would be too expensive to get married there, but it ended up being about the same price as our other venues but you got so much more for your money! We had the whole venue to ourselves for over 12 hours. We were able to get ready at the venue (boys in the basement and girls upstairs) which made the day a lot easier. Sarah and her team took care of setting everything up, flipping the room between the ceremony and reception, and tearing everything down at the end of the night. All we had to do was bring everything to the Bluestone then take it home at the end of the night. It is a beautiful and unique place that does not need much decoration to stand out. The food was delicious and the staff was amazing, especially Debbie who took care of us all night (and taught me how to wobble). After the reception, we were even able to have an afterparty in the basement until almost 2am. I just cannot say enough good things about the Bluestone. Definitely one of the best choices we made for our wedding. I felt so stress-free on our wedding day because I knew Sarah would have everything taken care of.

I fell in love with this place as soon as I walked in. Somehow I have never been to an event here in my 14 years living in Columbus. The venue speaks for itself, but the other perks are what makes this place worth the 5 star rating! Sarah was my coordinator and she was fantastic!! We came to her with a pretty quick date and she made me feel like I was giving her 2 years to help me get ready. She was always available to answer any questions, was even patient with my hubby to be as he played the math game with all the different options for beverage packages. She was accommodating to all of my different floor plan requests and panic attacks that we weren't going to have enough space! The food was outstanding, and what a relief that there wasn't another vendor I had to work with - they do it all in house and they do it WELL! Debbie was our assigned server, and she was flat out amazing. She took care of the entire wedding party all night long and no body wanted for anything. She told me her goal was to get me whatever I needed all night before I even knew I needed it and she delivered on that over and over again! Judging from the many selfies and snap chats I received, I would say the bar tenders did a fantastic job making sure everyone had a good time as well. Can't say enough about the experience at the Bluestone, it was everything I could have hoped for! Thanks Sarah!

I cannot say enough AMAZING things about my wedding at the Bluestone and the entire process of working with Sarah and the staff there. The venue is unique, beautiful and an absolute pleasure to work with. From start to finish, the Bluestone was extremely accommodating, organized, knowledgeable and responsive. We always felt like we were in good hands throughout the planning process. Sarah helped us with every aspect of planning, from selecting menus to working with vendors to running day-of logistics to post-wedding cleanup. We held both the ceremony and reception at the Bluestone and didn't need any sort of day-of coordination services because the Bluestone staff was so helpful! Our guests (and us!) cannot not stop raving about the venue. They complimented the delicious food and the amazing space. Our guests were dancing all night long and the space flowed perfectly- we had guests sitting upstairs and downstairs and that worked out great. The Bluestone is absolutely perfect for having a wedding band because the space is used for concerts and accustomed to working with bands.

The Bluestone made all of my wedding dreams come true. The space is gorgeous, the staff is attentive and friendly, and the food is delicious. Our guests had a phenomenal time and were so impressed by the beautiful, historic, elegant feel of the place. Sarah Downs was great to work with, and I felt completely taken care of from the moment we stepped in the door on the wedding day -- they had us covered, and they made sure we all had an amazing evening. I truly can't imagine a better place to have a wedding than The Bluestone.

I cannot say enough positive things about this venue. From the beginning working with Sarah Downs on the coordination was a breeze. Every time I emailed her a question she replied back quickly and made me feel at ease. They handled everything beautifully. The entire staff there day of was amazing and so attentive to all the guests. We received so many compliments on the beautiful venue, the staff, the entire experience. A million times thank you to them for making our day so wonderful!

We had our wedding at the Bluestone on 4/9/16. It was an amazing experience and we couldn't have asked for a better venue. The set up was gorgeous and even more beautiful than how we envisioned it. The staff at the Bluestone was terrific! From the coordinator and the assistants that helped that day, to the waitstaff and bartenders. Everyone was so kind and helpful. The coordinators made sure that we had everything we needed all day long and that the entire event went smoothly. They did so much behind the scenes that I didn't even realize at the time. During the cocktail hour and reception, we had personal waitstaff for the whole bridal party and parents. They made sure our meals were prompt and our hands were never drink-free. It's easy to look at the price tag on everything and be amazed at how expensive it all can get, but I couldn't put a price on the dedication and service we received from the Bluestone. It was an amazing day and I'm so sad that it's all over, but I couldn't have asked for a better venue for our wedding! Highly, highly recommended!!

I cannot say enough good things about this venue. We researched many venues before choosing the Bluestone, and we couldn't have been more pleased with how everything turned out. We worked with Sarah and she helped us every step of the way. She made me feel very relaxed, and she helped make my wedding planning a more enjoyable experience. Our wedding day turned out absolutely perfect, and we have Sarah and the Bluestone to thank for that. Every detail from lighting, to center pieces, to walking us through the big day! I would recommend the Bluestone to anyone who is looking for that perfect wedding day! The Bluestone is remarkable!!!!

Where do I start! First off Sarah Downs was great. She was so easy to work with, and was very flexible with our needs though-out the whole process. I was so stressed the week of the wedding, getting all the last minute details complete. The rehearsal night we brought all our decorations and I was expecting Sarah to tell me she needs to know where everything needs to go, or have a detail print out. No need, Sarah ensured not to worry and she would put everything where it would look best. Sarah and the staff did such an amazing job it exceeded our expectations. The wedding day came and Karen and Debbie were great. Karen was very professional and courteous, she made my husband and I feel very important. Debbie was just on it with our drinks, there wasn't a moment during the night where I did not have a drink, whether it was water or an adult beverage. She also was very fun, and kept my guests entertained. I can tell that Debbie and Karen truly enjoy what they do. Overall, our experience was amazing, the venue was unique and we couldn't have asked for a better day spending it at the Bluestone. One last person to recognize, thank you Jess for showing us around when we were looking at venues, and for helping on our wedding day, your help did not go unnoticed. I would definitely recommend this venue.

We got married at The Bluestone November 21, 2015. The process was seamless. Planning a wedding can be very daunting and stressful- and Sarah, the wedding coordinator, was amazing. I brought a lot of outside décor and it was all set up exactly how I wanted it and they did it all for me! The turn around time from ceremony to reception was amazing for how much décor I had. I cannot say enough about my experience there. My guests all loved the space and there really is no place as unique. Highly, highly recommend!

Words can't describe how perfect our wedding day was. But I'll try...in hopes that other brides get as much enjoyment out of this place as I did. I fell in love with the Bluestone while researching venues in downtown Columbus. It lived up to the hype when we visited in person, and was truly perfect for our wedding. Biggest pros: beautiful, truly unique space. This isn't a cookie cutter ballroom. The space is dark, intimate, and filled with lots of nooks and crannies. Sarah, the onsite coordinator is a gem. She and her team were fantastic, and always had an answer for all 23049234 of our questions during planning. She runs the show with grace, and you won't be shuffled around with different coordinators during your planning process. No need to hire a day-of wedding coordinator because she'll manage all of your onsite vendors. Their staff does the set up, flip (if you have the ceremony there) and tear down--you don't need to lift a finger. The Bluestone also subcontracts with an event rental company, so you just pick out what you want and they order/coordinate delivery, etc. I don't think we were told "no" once in terms of decor, custom food, etc. They made it happen! My parents were extremely pleased with the service staff during the day. the VIPs (bride and groom, parents, grandparents) are treated especially well. We basically got our own server who catered to us the entire time. The reception works really well if you want a party--we hired a live band--Conspiracy--OH MAN HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. This place is normally a concert hall, so a live band was a must for us. I'll finish with a little moment that stands out about their staff. My mom and I could not for the life of us get the bustle on my dress to work. I was getting upset because it was taking so much time away from mingling/enjoying the moment. Someone *thankfully* grabbed Sarah (who I'm sure was probably preoccupied with 39049830458 things), and she figured it out in like 2 seconds. It's true what they say--the day was a complete blur, but I'm so appreciative of the beautiful venue, talented/hardworking staff, and especially for Sarah.

Service was outstanding from the beginning stages, rehearsal, wedding ceremony (which is GORGEOUS) and the reception - the staff help every step of the way.

I am writing this review from the Mother of the Bride Perspective. The wedding is now 2 weeks past and I am still on cloud nine. The team at the Bluestone was perfect... Jess helped us with all of the pre wedding planning from the preferred vendor list to table setting choices. In working with our vendors, they all knew the Bluestone, and the Bluestone knew them and it was all perfectly coordinated. Jess blew me away when she could estimate the number of seconds for a bridesmaid to walk down the aisle.. really... that is a woman who knows the details and has been through this before. She handled a couple of frantic moments with grace... what? The Bride doesn't like her flowers? We had a new ones in one hour.... What ... it’s raining on outdoor photos... here are umbrellas... What, guests could not make it... no empty place settings.... perfect.... then, she introduced Ashley who helped us through the night without ever missing a beat... perfect. Then, was the wedding and the reception. Debbie was my Angel. I was so pleased when before the wedding, she introduced herself to me, and then took care of my every need.... a glass of wine before the wedding, a cup of coffee after dinner.... loading the car at the end of the night.... Really... I know the Bride is the most important person... but momma of the bride ranks up there too and Debbie made me feel like royalty. PLUS... she was a blast... there was lots of drinking and dancing... and some spilling on the dance floor... she was out there in a flash, fitting right in, helping clean up the spills and not missing a beat. Debbie really added to the party! I would also say they did a perfect job estimating our staffing needs. I don't think anyone waited more than a couple minutes for a drink (remember Debbie... I never waited once!) and the food was presented quickly and beautifully. At the end of the night, I tried to thank each person... the bartenders were all still there, all still happy and all ready to serve. One "lesson learned" I would offer. The end of the night was a bit hectic. The DJ and the Bluestone did such a great job keeping the party going.... folks did not leave... so that is good and bad. It made the end of the night rushed and difficult. Had I thought through that better we could have planned it better.... but, my first time as MOB!!! So two weeks after the wedding, I am still singing you praises, I still loved the day/night and the experience, and I have recommended the Bluestone to others... did I mention the pictures are spectacular with the Bluestone backdrop? Thank you to all of the Bluestone Team. I have a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes reliving what a perfect day/night it was.

We had roughly 250 guests- the Bluestone was the perfect venue and very accommodating, Sarah is amazing to work with and everything turned out great! We had seating upstairs and downstairs for our guests. We had our ceremony and reception here and I couldn't have wished for a more perfect day. It rained early on but cleared up- there are options to have your cocktail hour on the patio or in the upstairs room and being a music venue the lighting and sound system were already included and perfect! You also have the option of having an after party which was so perfect for us. I would definitely recommend this venue!

I highly recommend The Bluestone for wedding ceremony and reception venues! I worked with Sarah Downs and she was more friendly and accommodating than I ever would have imagined. Every single thing we asked of them/her, we were told yes of course, we can definitely do that. The food was great, the bar has such an assortment of alcohol and we were so impressed by flipping the space during the cocktail hour. The Bluestone has a church feel to it but also a super fun party feel. The dance floor was packed the entire night! It was exactly what we wanted and we could not be happier!

The Bluestone and it's staff were fantastic! They made everything about our wedding perfect. Sarah Downs and her staff went over and beyond to ensure that not only me and my husband were taken care of, but also our wedding party and families were taken care of. There wasn't a point in the night where my hand didn't have a drink in it, or that I needed anything because someone was always right there to take care of me. The food was amazing. Everyone told me that I wouldn't eat on my wedding day, well they were wrong. Everything from the appetizers to the main course was delicious. I don't think the staff at the Bluestone have the word "no" in their vocabulary. Anything we asked for they found a way to make it happen. We were truly blessed to find such a fantastic venue for our special day and meet the amazing staff. The Bluestone is our absolute favorite place in Columbus, and having our wedding there was just amazing.

First off the staff at the Bluestone are all GREAT. Sarah never said "no", and always made the brides vision happen! The servers were so wonderful to our entire party. The guests came to us after the wedding gushing about Debbie the head server who smiled, danced and made sure we all had everything we needed. She treated my 92 year old mom like a queen, and made sure she had a great time! The venue is unique and beautiful, offers so many options, for an amazing wedding!!!
