The Centre at Bluffton was a fantastic reception site for our wedding! Stephanie and the team were wonderful to work with from start to finish. They provided the decorations, catering accommodations, drinks and setup, it was so incredible to have their team take care of the day-of details for our wedding so we could focus on the day. They were very responsive and always accommodating to our requests. We highly recommend The Centre for your wedding venue!
Stephanie was super responsive and easy to work with. The food turned out amazing. We got so many complements on it. They also did an amazing job setting up the hall for 300 people. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! Thanks again!
Ashley and Stephanie were wonderful to work with! The decor they recommended and set up was gorgeous! There was so much room for everyone with a large dance floor. (250 guests). They worked with a caterer who did not get our order quite right, but Ashley remained calm and confident that there was plenty of food. She was right...and we had plenty of left overs. Our guests loved the food and the entire atmoshpere. Having 2 sets of restrooms was great. And because it rained during the bridal party entrance and exit, having a CANOPY was invaluable. Also useful for guests arriving! We would recommend the Centre to everyone!
It was amazing not having to set up anything or tear anything down at the end of the night! Everyone said the food was amazing, and they made the night perfect!
Brenda and Wendy at the Centre made planning my reception a breeze. The centerpieces they made were beautiful (got tons of compliments) and helped me find other various vendors when I asked. They have done so many weddings-they know what works and what doesn't-they let you know to ensure you have the best day! On the day of, the staff was nice and respectful and I didn't have to worry about a thing. Great reception hall for such a small town!
Overall, I think the Centre was a nice place for our reception. But for the amount we paid, I wish that the day before and the day of our wedding featured better customer service. I was assured repeatedly that Brenda and Wendy would take care of everything, but the day before the wedding I was disappointed to see that the room was arranged in a different fashion than what we had discussed. When I brought this up and offered to change it myself, they were upset and annoyed with me, and I was accused of saying that I had changed my mind because it was right according to the notes. When I pointed out that our head table was missing a few seats, I was told that I had emailed that as a change. I pulled up my email just to confirm that I had in fact requested the correct number. When I arrived at the reception the next day, the lights were as bright as they could go, and throughout the night I received several comments that bar staff was treating guests disrespectfully.
While none of these things is a huge deal or all that annoying, I was just surprised that I was treated sort of rudely the day before the wedding regarding mistakes that I hadn't made. Trust me, I'm unhealthily obsessed with being organized, and these things weren't my errors. The reception was very nice, and the food was decent (we had some complaints about the pork being very dry) but I would consider options in Lima and Findlay that are of comparable price and possibly better customer service.
We had our reception at The Centre in Bluffton. We have recevied so many compliments! Leading up to the wedding Brenda and Wendy were a great help in doing the planning and making sure everything would be perfect. They can do everything for you from decorations, to the food which you must have catered by them. They also have a range of open bar options to chose from which were very competetively priced. We loved them, it was beautiful and they made it so easy!
