The Emerald Event Center was the perfect venue for our wedding! The staff went out of their way to make every bit of our day fantastic! Liz was wonderful and easy to work with and went above and beyond to accommodate us and all of our guests. O...ur ceremony was outside and the courtyard was simple yet elegant. We were lucky to have a warm and sunny day in October, and our ceremony was the first one to be held outside in the courtyard! The cocktail reception was outstanding- from the appetizers, to the bar and the décor- our guests were definitely impressed. The reception hall was gorgeous! The ballroom was beautifully decorated and the lighting was very cool (the personalized lighting features in the ceiling- awesome!). They even had centerpiece decorations- a tall goblet for candles or flowers, and a tall, rectangular vase for the same. We used them, but added our own flowers and other décor for the tables. We worked with Liz to show her what we wanted the tables to look like, and she arranged all of them perfectly! The food plated, served and delicious! The cake was included, and was phenomenal. Our guests continue to talk about how beautiful and fun our wedding and the whole evening was! When the reception ended, the bar in the hotel stayed open for our guests for an extra hour. The honeymoon suite (also included in our package) was huge, comfortable, and a great place for our parents and siblings (and my husband and I) to escape to for a few minutes during the evening. Our guests' experience was complete with the generous breakfast offerings the next morning. Overall, we highly, HIGHLY recommend the Emerald Event Center in Avon, Ohio.
