We had a feeling before we toured, that this would be our venue. And as soon as we completed the tour we knew there was no other option.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with the entire staff throughout the planning and day of. We primarily dealt with Halle with planning, and Katie was our venue coordinator day of. I couldn’t sing their praises enough- they made sure we had everything we needed and helped create our dream wedding.
The venue is stunning (no one can believe this exists in central Ohio), food was delicious, bartenders were speedy and cordial. Again, 10/10 phenomenal experience and couldn’t recommend this place or staff more!

Thank you SO much for sharing your experience, Amanda! It was such an honor to be part of your special day! :)
My husband and I had our rehearsal dinner at The Club at Corazon- it was absolutely amazing! The venue itself is so stunning and unique. Katie and Halle made everything perfect and flawless. Katie helped run a rehearsal for the bridal party and Halle ensured the service ran smoothly. Katie and Halle even surprised us by putting out the gifts we had for our family and bridal party. The food was phenomenal and everyone in attendance raved about it for weeks. Highly highly recommend
We hosted our party here in the Fall, and it was so beautiful! The venue is unlike anything you'd expect in Columbus and it checked all the boxes for my vision... cannot say enough good things. The staff was so helpful, and Halle and Katie really went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and that our vision came to life. So grateful to this venue and team. Highly recommend you check them out!

We loved hosting you all and appreciate you sharing your experience with us!!! :)
Any questions?
Everything with the venue went absolutely perfect! Halle was great at communication throughout the process with planning, answered my (many) emails promptly, and organized the vendors the day of. The food, snacks, and bar were all amazing and our guests commented on how tasty everything was. Club at Corazon really made sure our day was perfect from start to finish.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Tim! We loved hosting you!
Wow! Where do I start? The experience here was all encompassing! Unparalleled staff. Friendly, professional, and they know how to tailor an experience in a way that you didn't even know you wanted. Lots of space for the entirety of the wedding party.
Strong Tuscany vibes that offers an incredible back drop for photos! How is this place in Ohio??
HUGE shoutout to Amy for making this venue come alive!

Aww thank you for your kind words, Alex! We are so thankful you enjoyed your wedding and loved hosting you all! :)
Beautiful venue! I attended an anniversary party here and had a wonderful experience. The gardens offered beautiful views for photos. Our outdoor event was rained on but the staff quickly and efficiently moved the event indoors to an equally lovely space. Overall a really lovely time!

We loved hosting you and your family, Emily, and appreciate you sharing your experience! :)
Our daughter was married on Saturday July 6, 2024 at the Corazon. I cannot emphasize how beautiful this venue is. The entire day was magical.
Our wedding guest have raved over the venue and how beautiful.
Hallie was amazing to work with from the beginning. Sabrina was great while decorating. Hallie made sure the day ran smooth, She timed everything perfectly. The wait staff and bartenders were excellent. Everyone was helpful.
The late night sliders were a hit.
I cannot say enough great things about the day!
Thank you for making our day special.

Mindy, thank you so much for your thoughtful review. It was our pleasure to host your daughter's big day and we are thrilled that it was all she dreamed of and more! :) Best wishes to you and your family!
Hosted our wedding here and it was amazing! The venue is absolutely beautiful and everything ran super smoothly! The food was delicious - had many guests come to me afterwards raving about the appetizers! The staff were super friendly and helpful! We wish we could relive it over and over again! It was amazing!
I was a guest here for my cousins wedding and wow! It was so put together and organized. My cousin didn’t have to worry about anything and got to enjoy her beautiful day. The venue is stunning, and everyone that worked there was professional and incredibly nice.
I attended a wedding at this venue this past fall and it was an incredible experience. The wedding seemed to flow so smoothly into the reception. All of the wait staff was extremely nice and accommodating to me and my guest. I hope to book the Club at Corazon in the future when my lucky day comes around. The venue was clean and well maintained. It was an all-around great time!
This venue is spectacular. The staff truly care about your experience. Halle and Katie pay attention to every detail, and work with you to bring your vision to life. The chef and catering is fantastic. The staff works together to bring a truly seamless and stress free experience to your day. The venue is very spacious, and the views outside are just fabulous. Also shout out to Amy in Sales for her kindness and patience while helping me decide if Corazon was right for us.
I attended a wedding here and was blown away by this venue. First off, omg this is Ohio? It felt like a European gateway - blissful, romantic and full of charm. The staff was amazing, the food was delicious and the pictures we took were out of this world. Highly recommend to anyone considering getting married here!
The Club at Corazon was such a beautiful venue and the staff was very friendly. From the awesome bartenders to the event planner / coordinator (Halle), everyone was so nice and very helpful! Highly recommend this venue!
We got married on August 5th and it was absolutely perfect. This venue is so gorgeous and we received so many compliments from all of our guests. Halle and the staff were so accommodating with all of our needs and did a fantastic job making our wedding day all we could have dreamed of and more.

Taryne you words mean so much - thank you!! We are thrilled to have played a part in your big day and are so happy it was everything you dreamed it would be! :)
I got married on 9/22 and it was a dream!! Halle was amazing through the whole process. Katie was our coordinator and she was thoughtful, intentional and attentive. I really cannot recommend this venue enough! Food and drinks were amazing, the staff was so kind, and it was clean. I loved this place!
This is a beautiful venue and the day was so wonderful!! I'm not giving 5 stars because we upgraded to a specially selected side at our dinner which was forgotten during the wedding, which was very disappointing and we still have not gotten a refund for their mistake. The bridal suite and locker rooms are dirty and dark and the sauna and jacuzzi did not work. This was disappointing for the price we were paying.
Overall, I would recommend this venue to someone with a large budget because it is beautiful but pricier than expected.
Response from the Vendor on 07/31/2023
Hi Lydia, we appreciate the feedback and had a wonderful time working with you. Congratulations!!
We had a beautiful wedding here and Halle did an amazing job communicating with us and answering all our questions. The venue is gorgeous and a really good value for what you pay, the food was totally amazing and the staff are all super sweet and accommodating. Even if you're worried about the price, I urge you to take a tour of the space and look at their pricing options. If you're willing to have your wedding during the colder months or on a Sunday (we did both!), you can save thousands of dollars.
Response from the Vendor on 06/27/2023
Hi Samantha! Thank you so much your sweet review and for choosing Corazon to be apart of your magical day! Congratulations again and we wish you and Carlos the very best!
We had an amazing experience here. Halle is so nice and knowledgeable. The few tiny mishaps we had (our deposit was listed as not paid when it was paid, we received a message meant for another couple about our date being taken…) were addressed and fixed same day. The food was excellent, and they really help you customize your day. The signature drinks they made were so so good, the batches were completely gone by the end of dinner!
Response from the Vendor on 05/19/2023
Thank you for your review, Sydney! With Halle's education and background, we agree, she is so knowledgeable in what she is doing! We apologize about the small mix ups you had - thanks for being understanding. We are so happy you were satisfied ...
with your experience at Corazon and appreciate you choosing us to celebrate with!
I got engaged here and it was perfect. My fiancé surprised me and proposed to me at the fountain. Then we came into the club and all of our friends and family was there. The event coordinator, Halle, was a dream to work with she helped him with everything down to the last detail. They did such a great job and the food was AMAZING. They had a champagne wall that was an amazing touch when we did a speech to toast to us and thank everyone who came and supported us. I would 1000% recommend this place to anyone who is interested in getting married here or having an engagement party here!
Had the best time attending a wedding here! Everything about the day was so dreamy. Everyone who was part of managing the wedding did such an amazing job and the entire day was relaxing and fun. One of the highlights was how understanding and accommodating they were about my gluten allergy. I could just enjoy the reception without having to worry and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had!
Attended a wedding here and could not have been more impressed. The venue is beautiful, staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was incredible. If I ever have a second wedding, it'll be here.
I had my wedding at the Club at Corazon a week ago and can't stop dreaming about how perfect it was! The venue was STUNNING, the food and drinks were amazing and the staff and service was truly top tier! Halle & Oya were incredible to work with! From our tour early on up until the last dance at our wedding, they and their entire team were incredible. Oya was there during the day of our wedding, and truly made our entire wedding party feel like royalty by making sure everyone had food/drinks and all decor was perfectly placed. For someone that has planned events/fashion shows before, I have never been more impressed with the professionalism and incredible experience. So many guests shared how the wedding was EPIC and the venue was the best! 10/10 would recommend and it was such a privilege to have our wedding here!
My daughter just had her wedding there in August and we were extremely disappointed. The bar staff were rude and condescending to several of our guests and the open bar hours were cut short which was not in our contract.
The wedding coordinator was not organized the day of the wedding and she was not easily accessible.
The ceiling was leaking with buckets on the floor and it was so uncomfortable out on the dance floor because everyone was too hot .
The only positive things were the meal and the servers .
I would not recommend this venue.
The best country club I’ve EVER been to! Beautiful, elegant, and fun
We had the best experience having our wedding at the Corazon! The entire event went smooth from the time we set our date with the venue to the end of our wedding night. All of the guests were so complimentary of the food and drinks, beautiful complex and such nice staff working the event. The event coordinator Halle did amazing organizing the event and unfolding everything I wanted for my wedding!
Was a guest at a wedding here and the venue and staff were awesome
The Club at Corazón is one of the most gorgeous, classy, and welcoming venues I’ve ever been to for a wedding. The facility itself is breathtaking, and the people who work there treat you like family. 10/10 in my book.
Attended a friends wedding at this venue and everything was perfect. Facility was spotless, staff was as friendly, food was great and an amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend for your next event
Amazing venue! Food was great and wedding was beautiful! 10/10 recommend
Beautiful venue place inside and out. Excellent food.
The reception wA s beyond beautiful and the service was amazing. Could not recommend it any more. Made the special day even more special.
I’ve never seen a nicer venue. The owner and staff completely knocked it out of the park. Highly recommend.
Great venue with a beautiful view. Staff was friendly and kept the evening running smooth throughout the wedding
Amazing venue! So much space & options for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception! The venue has so much on site that it made the planning process super easy! Everyone on staff was organized and so easy to work with, everything ran perfectly! They have a gorgeous bridal suite for you to get ready in all day which was a huge bonus because a lot of other venues only let you in 2 hours prior! Also, the building & scenery around is stunning for pictures!
I used Corazon for my wedding ceremony and reception in April 2022 and it was absolutely perfect. Halle, the venue manager, was communicative, prepared, and always answered any questions I had promptly. She was amazing to work with and made sure the venue was set up perfectly for my wedding. Not only was the venue stunning and unlike anything else in the area, but the food and staff were also top notch. I received so many compliments from my guests about the venue and I am so glad I got married here.
This is the first and only wedding venue that we toured and are so glad we chose it for our wedding. Everything at this venue, the food, drinks, and staff... fantastic! Halle is absolutely amazing and she's a huge reason our wedding day went so smoothly! She is professional and responsive, we can't thank her enough for helping us have the perfect wedding day. It could not have been any better. Highly recommend The Club at Corazon!
Wow absolutely beautiful venue…Halle is amazing! It was unbelievable…we decided to go with a destination wedding! If we decided to be in Columbus we would have done in here for sure!!!
We had the absolute best experience at The Club at Corazon for our wedding. The wedding process can be stressful and overwhelming, but Halle made everything run so smoothly leading up to our wedding day and on our wedding day. She helped out in anyway she could and helped bring our vision to life. It was beautiful and absolutely recommend The Club at Corazon!
A dream come true!
Halle was very professional and amazing to work with! The club made sure everything was ran smoothly and we can not thank them enough for making our day so special.
We just had our wedding at Club Corazon and it was everything I’d dreamed of and more! Halle was so calm & cool through the entire process. She made multiple changes for us, even the week of. She was available to help, every step of the way. Wedding day ran smoothly and the guests were “wow’ed.” We got so many compliments. The pictures are to die for bc of the beauty of the property grounds. I would highly recommend this venue. I wouldn’t change a thing about my wedding day. It was perfect in every way!
We are All Night Events, a DJ company local here to Columbus, OH. We have DJed at The Club at Corazon many times throughout the years. There is seriously something special about this location. The indoor decor and outdoor scenery make the place a beautiful location to get married. Every single time we DJ here the dance floor is absolutely packed all the way to the end of the night. This isn't to say how great we are, though we're pretty good, this doesn't always happen. Some crowds just aren't dancers or different factors come in to play and you don't have a ton of dancing or partying. I've told them before and I'll say it here again, something magical happens at The Club at Corazon that makes every single wedding an unforgettable night. And we look forward to working with them every single time. Book your wedding here to gain some comfort in knowing your wedding day will be perfect!
The Corazon was great, couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue. Everything with the reception went off smoothly, people said it was one of the best weddings they've ever been to.
I will add some criticisms, and they are minor:
-In the groomsmen locker room preparing and getting dressed, there were no towels
-They gave us bagels and one of them had mold on it.
Those weren't a great look..
But please don't let that overshadow how great the rest of everything else was. 9/10 would recommend to anyone who can afford it.
Everything and everyone at Corazon was perfect. We could not be more pleased.
We have only started our process with Halle in planning our wedding and she has been an excellent partner. She has been quick with information and very attentive. The initial walk through was thorough and she didn't hold back any information. All costs and expectations were very straight forward.
I was a guest and this venue was stunning! All of the different indoor and outdoor spaces were gorgeous, especially the terrace view of the lake. The food and drinks were delicious! Everything was organized and the staff were always on top of things to make sure everyone had the best night. Halle, the event manger, was so helpful and made sure the bride and groom had the perfect day. She was always one step ahead, which was a huge stress relief for the bride. This is the best venue I’ve been to, and I would definitely recommend it!
We have just started with the planning process and Halle has been so responsive and helpful! We booked right after we toured and received our contract same day. The information packet has so much helpful information and if there is something not listed, Halle is quick to respond. So excited to continue the planning process here :)
Everything and everyone at this venue was amazing! There is absolutely nothing we could have changed to have made our day any more perfect than it was. The food, the drinks, and the staff! Spectacular! We feel very blest to have had our wedding reception at such a beautiful place. Halle has great ideas, and she makes things happen seamlessly.
This wedding venue was amazing! I was apart of the wedding party and their event manager did an outstanding job to make sure everything went well. I highly recommend this venue for anyone that is looking for an event center.
This was the most beautiful event facility I have ever been to for a wedding. Everything on this day was perfect- the food, the drinks, the DJ and more! The event manager went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly. She did a wonderful job!
Was a guest at a wedding and the attention to detail was immaculate! The customer service as well, very friendly! I would hire these people for my own wedding (whenever that happens)
This wedding was beautiful! The venue was amazing - the outside terrace was definitely my favorite part. The staff was very pleasant and the event manager did a fantastic job making sure everything ran smoothly for the bride and groom. She even chatted with the guests and made sure they had a good time as well. Would definitely recommend this venue site to anyone planning a wedding in the Columbus area!
The venue was very beautiful. The wedding planner did an excellent job of keeping things organized while also staying in the background. You could tell the bride and groom fully trusted her to make their night a success. Food was great and drinks were delicious! I hope I get invited to another wedding at this venue :)
My now husband & I got married at Corazon in May 2021. Oya, Tory & Halle made the process so easy! It took so much stress off of our shoulders. From the initial tour to the big day, they made everything perfect! We initially had only planned to have our reception here but then we had to change our ceremony at the last minute because the church we booked could only accommodate a certain number of people due to Covid & when we told Corazon this, they said no problem & they were able to accommodate our ceremony out on the terrace at the last minute. The reception was absolutely perfect! We received so many compliments from our guests on how beautiful everything was the entire day! If you are looking for a venue, look no further & book Corazon. You will not regret it! Best venue by far. Also our wedding pictures turned out so beautiful because Corazon has some spectacular places & back drops no matter where you take your pictures. I would relive this day over & over again if I could! Thank you to the staff at Corazon for making our most special day the BEST DAY! We didn't have to worry about a thing because the staff took care of everything while also meeting all of our requests. Thank you again! I will definitely be recommending Corazon to future brides!
Took a tour today with Troy and he was amazing!!! So thankful for the time he took to show us this beautiful venue. Looking forward to working with him more!
As a bride who chose Corazon as our wedding venue, seeing lots of both five star reviews and one star reviews was definitely confusing during our selection process. I wanted to provide an honest review as someone who had both very positive and negative experiences with the venue to hopefully help other couples make the choice that's right for them!
Let's start with the pros, since there were definitely a lot of them! First and most obviously, the venue is STUNNING. We had lots of rave reviews from guests about how beautiful it was. The bridal suite is incredible, and the outdoor areas are just unmatched in Central Ohio. The final coordinator we worked with, Halle, was absolutely excellent. She was quick to respond, very organized and made everything go smoothly during our rehearsal and the day of our wedding. We also worked with Kay the morning of our wedding, who was also a delight and super friendly and helpful. The food was AMAZING and we got lots of compliments from our guests. The staff on our wedding day were all so professional and friendly, too. If I was only judging based on the day of our wedding and the people who were there, this would be a five-star review.
But now, for the cons. We worked with a total of five different coordinators during our time planning our wedding. Granted, we were planning for longer than usual due to being COVID reschedules, but that still seems a bit insane as far as turnover goes. Until Halle, we were never sure who we were supposed to be communicating with. Emails would often go unanswered for weeks, which was especially stressful when we realized that our original June 20, 2020 wedding wasn't going to be safe and we began trying to reschedule. Couples should also know that the club is open for member use during your wedding, so you may find strangers in gym clothes walking around your wedding and/or using the pool during your outdoor ceremony. Not a huge dealbreaker for us, but just something to keep in mind. The biggest issue we had with Corazon, and the main reason for only giving three stars, was the price gouging. I understand that they're a business and they need to stay afloat, especially during COVID, but I feel like we got a bit swindled. We were not given the option to reschedule to a Saturday (they were apparently all booked by other couples already), but we were also not given the Sunday rates; we had to pay the Saturday rates for a Sunday wedding. Since we booked, their prices went up quite a bit too, and so we were paying far more than we'd originally planned for a Sunday wedding with only about 2/3 of the original number of guests. That was really disappointing, and I feel like there should have been some compromise there as we were forced to choose a less-than-ideal date.
Overall, I want to make sure it's clear that our wedding day was beautiful and we were very happy with everything the day of, but that working with Corazon for the past nearly 2.5 years of planning was not always easy. It's up to each couple to decide for themselves if they think the potential issues are worth one of the prettiest venues in the area!
Troy did a great job of showing the space. Corazon is beautiful with a lot of options to customize!
What can I say other than WOW!
I was the DJ for a recent wedding at this venue and I am at a loss of words with how amazing this place is. Rarely do I work a wedding where the staff was so on top of things. They were even a step ahead of me which rarely happens. They took care of all of the guests and made sure the Bride and Grooms night went perfectly! I would 100% recommend this to all of my couples.
I absolutely love this wedding venue! The staff is friendly, professional, and so organized. You will not be disappointed if you book the Corazón as your venue!
I will start out by saying the day of our wedding went well. They did not have all of the food we had ordered for getting ready. However, it was resolved quickly. The staff we worked with the day of were fantastic and everything went smoothly! The biggest problem with this venue is the complete lack of communication. Calls were not returned, emails took multiple weeks to be replied to. We had to delay our wedding due to COVID and when everything got pushed back communication disappeared. Troy was great at keeping in touch with us, however, Oya was almost impossible to get in contact with. This was especially frustrating because she was our third or fourth coordinator at this point. The venue was gorgeous and the food was great. However, the communication problems leading up to our big day make us hesitant to recommend this venue. We also had problems with getting appropriate estimates and knowing exactly how much money we owed.
Venue was gorgeous inside and out. Very professional, clean, the food was fantastic and service was great.
Had an engagement party at Corazon and it was amazing! The venue has a great atmosphere and the staff was welcoming, friendly & attentive! Would highly recommend this establishment for a wedding, or quite frankly any event at all!
Recently visited this venue and was blown away! It was beautiful, clean, and every detail was so thoughtful! The owners and staff were friendly and welcoming! I would highly recommend this venue and will be visiting again!
Beautiful venue with friendly staff! Food and drinks were excellent as well! Highly recommend to anyone! Best engagement party I’ve ever been to!
The Club at Corazon is a great place to work! Between the great venue spaces for events, wedding packages, views, gyms and fitness classes this place should be a no brainer for your daily workout or to host your event! We have a great staff that's working hard towards making this club better every day. Our servers and bartenders are very friendly and love to help our guests as needed. Please check us out and come take a tour! I look forward to showing you how we can host the best wedding or event possible with stress free planning. Please visit our website to schedule a tour!
I attended a wedding during the summer and this venue is beautiful! Our food tasted good and was fresh, and the staff was very professional.
Would highly recommend The Club at Corazon and their planner ‘Oya’. We had an event late this summer during the covid madness and Oya was extremely helpful and prepared. She was constantly helping out and always available for questions or requests. Covid was an obstacle but she was able to really make the day perfect for us.
The club at Corazon was and has been a terrible experience to work with and deal with. Leading up to the wedding, the communication was awful and many details were often missed or wrong. It often took weeks to get a response and it would require multiple follow ups. If you reached out via phone, you would be told the best form of communication is email. Emails would receive no response or take extended periods of time for a response. On the day of the wedding, the grounds were very unkept and the grass was not cut and there were weeds everywhere. We had many issues with running out of things and staff being rude to guests.
After the wedding was over, we have spent months fighting for our deposit to be returned. Calls and emails have gone unanswered and many excuses have been given for why we had not received our deposit. Many of the excuses were often comical and complete lies and then another lie would quickly be provided. Overall, the experience with The Club at Corazon fell well short of any acceptable standard. The customer service we received has been unprofessional and also the worst we have ever experienced in business. I would not recommend them to any brides and grooms.
We got married at the Club at Corazon in August 2020 and would not recommend this venue due to the various issues we had with the venue during the planning process.
The communication issues started before we even booked the venue. We had scheduled a time to tour the venue with the owner Oya but she never showed up. We figured this was a simple miscommunication, and we were offered a discount on décor if we chose to book them. We really liked the venue, so we decided to move forward.
Staff turnover was a huge issue during our planning process. Corazon had 3 different wedding coordinators during the period in which we were planning our wedding. We had minimal contact with the initial one but we did our tasting meeting with the second coordinator, who rushed us out the door before we had a chance to ask our questions. She left Corazon shortly after that meeting, and we found out only through an automated response when we tried to email her.
At this point, communication came to a screeching halt. We were less than 6 months out from our wedding, and after multiple follow ups we were finally able to arrange a meeting with Oya who ensured us that they would have another coordinator hired well before our wedding. At this point, we decided to just hire our own coordinator because we felt that we couldn’t necessarily trust Corazon to follow through or ensure that our day would be perfect. Eventually they did hire a new on-site coordinator (Hollie) and she appeared more organized and responsive. At the posting of this review, it seems that Hollie has moved to another role as well. More turnover.
Unfortunately we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic. We were initially planning to get married on a Saturday in May, which would be considered a peak day. The owners did allow us to reschedule the date but charged an extra $1000 to switch to a Saturday in August, with the justification that there were no restrictions in place at that time (early March) to justify a moved date. We could go on about the cost to move the date, but this was the first sign that Corazon was going to put their business interests far above those of their clients.
As we got closer to our new wedding date in August, there was so much still up in the air. The communication issues quickly resumed as wedding season ramped up. We received roughly one email from Hollie per week. The communication was so sparse that we were barely able to meet deadlines set in Corazon’s own contract. Due to the pandemic, we did have to downsize the wedding but Oya wouldn’t budge on the food/beverage minimum at all. For the second time, they went out of their way to put their business interests first. We understand that they need to look out for their business, but we would have appreciated more flexibility as this has been a difficult time for all of us.
On the day of the wedding, the food was great and the servers/bartenders were great and we have no complaints about that - would give them 5 stars! Again, it was such a relief to have our own coordinator there because we knew she had our best interest in mind. The headaches we experienced during the planning process were likely related to new owners (the current owners bought the property just before we booked the venue) but ultimately that doesn’t excuse the poor communication, unwillingness to compromise, and lack of compassion we received while undergoing the stress of initially planning and then postponing our wedding.
A Bride and Groom’s Biggest Regret – the Venue!
As if planning a wedding during COVID wasn't stressful enough, the Club at Corazon made the experience terrible to the point of disbelief. From the beginning, communication was a huge area of challenge. Emails were unanswered for weeks (we have documentation to prove this), and when an answer finally came, it would resolve one question but miss all other questions leaving us with even more questions, the circle would continue. One month from our wedding, the onsite coordinator took a “leave of absence” and we were shoveled around from person to person with no clarification for over a week who would run our wedding. In one year of planning, we had 4 different coordinators – turnover is horrendous. With 3 weeks to go, Oya or Alyssa, not sure her real name, steps in.
Oya’s work schedule consists of 3 days a week, so we were forced to reschedule our final walk through (according to her did not need to happen – when do venues not do final walkthroughs?) that has been set for weeks. 7 people changed their schedules to fit hers, and she did not show up the day of. We were placed with someone who just started at Corazon that week and could not answer any of our questions.
The day of the wedding is where Oya showed her true colors as a business owner – we were treated as a paycheck not real people. She screamed at many of our vendors, who have since communicated they will not work with Corazon in the future. She opened the doors to our reception early effecting how much time we spent with friends and family, even after she was told by our hired wedding planner the family would like more time during cocktail hour. We realized later she did this so she could leave by 8:30 PM and left the remainder of the night to another person on her staff who we never saw.
From day one, we were told the venue would be closed to members on the day of our wedding. In reality, members were present until 6:00 PM while our wedding occurred. During the evening, $300 was stolen from my dad’s wallet in the men’s locker room and my $1,300 veil was stolen from the bride’s quarters. We attempted to search the venue the Monday after the wedding, but were denied access to the trash and were told video surveillance would be provided (it is outlined in our contract video surveillance was intact the entire time). To this day, we don't know who took the veil or money but no video has been provided and it took weeks to get any response from them on these matters (including emails, phone calls, additional drop ins). We filed police reports with the Dublin Police who also had to drop by the venue to get a response from Corazon. Additionally, we attempted to get a final bill from the bar that was still outstanding 4 weeks later – we still have no itemized details about what was consumed that evening, just an obscure number. Oya has taken no responsibility for what occurred in her venue and blamed us for all that went wrong that evening, including money and the veil being stolen. Its is truly unbelievable.
When I say I am disappointed in the experience, those words really do not do justice for how much they impacted our wedding day in a negative way. I warn anyone who is considering the Club at Corazon for their wedding – DON’T! Reading this post will save you a lot of heart ache, frustration, money, time and tears. If we only knew what we do now, we never would have scheduled a tour in the first place. Stay far away.
There isn’t enough room on here to relate the frustration and stress we experienced with the management and owner at The Club at Corazon for my daughter’s wedding. It started from the beginning with taking weeks to respond to simple questions, to not answering questions at all, constant turnover so you don’t know who you are supposed to work with, conflicting information between parties at the venue, unacceptable customer service behaviors, not providing itemized billing for charges, etc. I could go on, however I will end with recommending you do your extensive due diligence prior to picking this venue or any other. Talk to people in the industry first. They know! We found out too late to make a change. Buyer beware.
Love this venue and the staff! The views are breathtaking and doesn't feel like Ohio at all! Oya is great to work with and was always overseeing the day to make sure we were happy and taken care of. Definitely recommend doing in-house decorations to make your life super easy.

Thanks Staci!! :)
Brides beware:
Pros: It truly is a beautiful venue. The grounds are gorgeous.
Cons: Please heed my warning (see also any other 1 star 2020 review). I have never dealt with more unprofessional people. Make sure you include in your contract when you want your deposit back. After multiple attempts and getting the run around from Oya and her team, we had to get our attorney involved to demand our deposit back. This woman gave me every excuse in the book it was insane. She said she mailed it when she didn’t amongst other things. Her emails started to become comical because we knew she was lying and no attempt to mail it had been made. Further, she disappears and only responds to your emails once a week. Oya (not her real name, by the way, we learned it was Alyssa) is very combative and abrasive. She will argue that the sky is pink if you let her. She can’t possibly fathom that anything could be her fault and regularly fails to take ownership or attempt to provide a solution. At one point she tried to say she never emailed us, as I read Oya her email out loud. It was like arguing with a wall. She of course deflects. We were working with Holly (their coordinator) and when I contacted her to find out about our deposit I was told she went on medical leave. A few weeks later I was told she left. Did Oya reach out to resolve the issue concerning our deposit? Drumroll...nope.
Brides - if you are going to go against my warning (good luck), make sure you go through your invoice with a fine-tooth comb because Oya and their coordinator messed things up on multiple occasions. Don’t fall for the “business can’t take a loss because of COVID bs.” Know your rights as a consumer, and if they try to withhold your money, don’t let them wear you down. If need be, you can always file a claim in small claims court. There isn’t a judge in hell that would allow them to continue to cheat people. Keep fighting for your money and make sure you keep records of everything (emails, calls, who you spoke to, etc.). I’m so glad we didn’t let Oya and her husband take advantage of us. I don’t think she realized who we knew and who we were.
Now, I am looking forward to reading Oya’s bs response below. Of course, Oya will attempt to refute what I have said above and claim that she “tried to work with us,” but that wasn’t true. She claimed she would “cancel” a check that was never sent (hello, we knew she was lying) and send a new one. Because her signature was on the bottom of the check that we received two months after our wedding, she would’ve known that she had never signed a check previously despite her saying she “didn’t know what was going on.” If she and her husband own the establishment they would HAVE to know. Just more lies. Her stories NEVER add up. Again, read other 1 star 2020 reviews and view this as a warning. I can’t stress enough how absurd it was that we had to involve our attorney to get our money back because we DID NOTHING WRONG. If you choose to work with them, add a line item to your budget for attorney’s fees.
The venue is gorgeous, and yes if you decide to see it you will be charmed the same way we were, but it’s only a matter of time before they screw you over just as they did for some of the other brides and blame COVID or any other ill-fitting excuse. There are tons of other beautiful venues in Columbus & Dublin to choose from. #runaway #bridesbeware
p.s. We are happy to provide documentation supporting everything that occurred.
Corazon is a gorgeous wedding venue that I am absolutely in love with! I've talked to vendors and photographers in the area that say the venue is absolutely breathtaking and they've loved working there! They truly seem to care and love what they do and it's a venue that my brother is booking for his wedding next summer 2021. Have loved working with staff and their customer service!

Thank you so much Sara!! We really appreciate it!! So glad you recommended the venue to your brother! We are so excited to work with him and his fiancé!
The Club at Corazon provided my daughter with the absolute most beautiful wedding! The place itself is absolutely stunning and the food was very delicious. It was a magical and dreamy evening!!
Response from the Vendor on 10/29/2020
Thanks Courtney!! Paxton's wedding was gorgeous and it was a joy working with you all. Congrats again and stay in touch!!! We're trying to talk Paxton into doing an anniversary date at the Club this summer just so we can hang out again! :)
Beautiful venue, all around! Even with rain, the indoor accommodations were stunning, and made for a lovely evening. Our guests were THRILLED with the food. We had an intimate wedding of 40 guests, and used the vineyard for the ceremony - it was seriously so special. Oya is super helpful and was a great help on our big day!
Response from the Vendor on 10/29/2020
Thanks Sarah! You guys were so great to work with and even with the rain, it turned out absolutely stunning. That dress....gahh!! And the touch of the antique car....looooove!! Stay in touch! :)
The Club at Corazon stoke $20k from me and my husband.
We were contracted to get married on May 16. In March, when we started realizing that our wedding may be canceled or postponed due to the virus, we tried (desperately) to get a hold of someone from Corazon. For weeks, my voicemails and emails were left unanswered. I know these were unprecedented times and they probably didn’t know what to do, but just an email saying they’re trying to figure it out would’ve been great. We finally got a hold of Hollie and were informed there was an option to postpone. Many of the brides I knew were postponing 1 full year, and after thinking about it we came to the conclusion we’d like to do the same. Nope - not an option. We could only pick the leftover (unsatisfactory) dates between September and the first couple months of 2021 AND we owed a ton of non-refundable money if we decided to move to one of those undesirable dates. Luckily we never signed a postponement contract, so our contract still says May 16. The Club was CLOSED due to the COVID-19 lockdown and they will not give us a DIME back. They have made what was supposed to be a very special day a very stressful and traumatic experience for me and my (now) husband. We ended up having a front porch, socially distant wedding when we realized The Club was keeping our entire wedding budget. We literally cannot afford another wedding. I don’t know how they sleep at night. DO NOT even tour this place.
Response from the Vendor on 08/24/2020
We are so very sorry that we were forced to close during the 'non-essential' shut down per mandates. Please understand that we are doing the absolute best that we can. We are more than willing to work with you to reschedule your date but we, u...
nfortunately, cannot offer refunds. Please understand that we didn't plan for this just as you didn't plan for this... and we are not trying to make this difficult. Most businesses cannot take a loss for all of 2020 because of this pandemic and we don't expect you to take a loss for this either so please work with us to reschedule. It's not ideal for you with not having your original date, and it's not ideal for us either in giving away another date for free but we can hopefully work together to apply your funds to another date with our rescheduled weddings!
Oya has been very helpful in our time working with her and she has gone out of her way to help us plan our big day! She's been very responsive and accommodating. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, the highlights are the terrace and the bridal suite with the courtyard. Highly recommend!

Thanks Chelsea!!! We really appreciate it!!! :)
If I could give zero stars, I would. Oya, doesn’t return calls OR emails ( although she says she prefers emails). I’ve reached out to her multiple times to schedule a tour and to get information about the venue and I can’t seem to get a response back. I’ve called the facility to see if she had an assistant or someone else to help her and she doesn’t, they insist that Oya is the only contact. I’ve called to try to speak to a manger and no one is EVER available. I was told multiple times that they would forward my information to Oya and she would call me back and had no luck! I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, I’m not spending my money with someone who can’t even respond back to me in a timely manner.
Poor customer service!
Response from the Vendor on 12/04/2019
Hi J G,
Sorry for your experience! We've had some transitional changes in house with our management and things seemed to pile up with the holidays.
I'd be happy to give you a call or shoot you an email if you provide your information.
Kindly...
!
We fell in love with this venue right away. We met with the owners along our planning process but mainly worked with Briana, the catering manager. A couple months prior to our wedding, there was some turnover and we had a new event coordinator, Kristin, who was amazing! She did such a great job picking up where Briana left off. She is a seasoned pro at weddings and made our rehearsal and wedding day run so smoothly.
Like another review said, the bar was an issue. They did not serve our full bar during cocktail hour even though that's what we paid for. The bartenders also acted as though the guests were an inconvenience. There was also a new chef between our tasting and our wedding so our food was not prepared the same as our tasting. Obviously not something that will affect other couples and I'm sure the new chef is great but I was disappointed.
Overall though, we had a great event. Kristin really saved everything when the weather took a turn with a cold front. She made sure everything looked beautiful and without her, I probably would have only given 3 stars but she's 5 stars on her own!
I am giving the venue 3 stars because for the price, I would have expected a higher level of attention to detail. Some examples: we were under the impression our cake would be sliced and served to guests- it wasn’t and half the cake wasn’t served and the cake that was served, the pieces were cut in half and so some didn’t have icing. Our escort cards were unnecessarily written on because they admitted to not reading my instructions. The bridal suite had a bunch of trash in it when we arrived. The men’s bathroom was out of paper towels for 2 hours even though someone was told. The bar was limited as far as what drinks people could get even though we weren’t told this and had paid for the premium open bar for our guests. The bartender was also slow and did not seem to get in a hurry. There weren’t signs placed at certain spots even though we were told there would be. A server broke a champagne flute and knocked over a glass of water and didn’t clean it up properly so two guests sat down in water. I have more, but I’ll stop. Our guests did have a great time overall and the food is delicious and the place really is beautiful. But again, I feel like there needs to be some things tightened up to be charging as much as they do.
Beautiful venue
We had our ceremony and reception at this venue on 6/9/19 and it was worth every penny!!! I would do it all over again because it was truly that amazing! The venue is beautiful and Briana the wedding coordinator is top notch! I could not have been happier with everything. Our day was perfect in every way. Our guests have been telling us how much they enjoyed everything. The food is amazing as well as the service and organization of our wedding day. I just want to thank Briana and all of the staff that made our wedding perfect! If you are looking for the perfect venue I highly recommend Corazón!
The Club at Corazon was the perfect place for my wedding, I'm so happy that I found it! I worked closely with Briana to plan my wedding, you can tell she has done this many times before as she had an answer to every one of my questions. The day of my wedding Oya was my coordinator, the transition between Briana and Oya was seamless. Everything was beautiful and went so smoothly, all of the staff is amazing. I was not stressed at all that day because I knew I was in good hands. I would highly recommend this all-inclusive venue to any bride. My guests are still raving about it because it is so unique and beautiful! I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day, Thank you Corazon!
