Our Wedding Planners create Impeccable Surroundings, Delectable Dining, and Flawless Execution. They are certified Master Wedding Planners by the American Association of Certified Wedding Planners.

Get married on our expansive 110-acre outdoor landscape garden that has been growing for over 100 years. Our gardens feature over 2,500 varieties of plants creating color and texture – the perfect backdrop for any wedding. We also have great indoor ceremony options, separate from our ballroom.  Unique works of art by Ohio artists bring life to the walls and lobbies of our pre-function space, perfect for the cocktail hour before the big reveal into our well-appointed 5,000 square foot ballroom space that has 17 feet of ceiling space!

With the rental of the Shisler Ballroom, the wedding couple gets a complimentary stay for the evening at the Barnhart Rice Homestead, The Stone House. This home was built in the 1820s with hand-hewn sandstone ashlar blocks. It is one of the best surviving examples of German vernacular architecture that still exists within Wayne County.
