We held our wedding ceremony and reception here on August 23. This venue is truly worth every…read morepenny. Not only is the food some of the best we've ever had, but the guests have been saying this as well. They truly work with your vision and help bring everything to life. Olivia is a PRO and she will truly do everything she can to help your big day be perfect. The staff is so kind and tentative, and we couldn't have had a better day. The lighting is beautiful, the food is to die for, and the service is top notch. We got so many compliments on the venue aesthetics and food. The packages include set up and tear down, along with the coordinator, Olivia. They worked with us when we didn't want to pay for open bar for every guest knowing many wouldn't drink, and came up with a wristband solution to keep track of non-drinkers. We were able to add so much to our food package after getting final numbers. I do not regret a dollar spent!

I've been here twice with my management company for training and I love the entire ambiance. The…read morestaff is very friendly and the food that we had which was breakfast was hot and fresh. I never knew that this hidden jewel was in the heart of 315 and minutes away from OSU campus. Not only is this a good place to hold training sessions and conferences but I'm sure this is also a great place to hold corporate or personal parties. Lots of space to park and to host guests

You need to know a few things before considering this venue. We were told one price at contract…read moresigning, then when it came time for the final payment I noticed that it seemed high. They had raised their prices and also charged me for things that were not supposed to be there. It was a LOT of money. They made me send them a copy of the pamphlet that they gave us during our first meeting to prove the price difference! This is so unprofessional. Also, coordinators were young and must have been trained to say, "of course" and "absolutely". That's fine, but after a while, I just want things done as we discussed. Ours (Harper) left the company a few weeks before the wedding, and when I requested a face to face meeting with the new one that we had never met, she said that they normally don't do that, but she would. Um yes. And even though we went through details with her(Mia), there were things that were missed. We specifically asked for no champagne toast, yet flutes were on the tables and they started pouring at 2 tables before I caught them. There were other things, like a non working fridge in the get ready bridal area (so warm drinks), food that was already out when we arrived with flies landing on it, the wrong cross rented from Serendipity, when we specifically asked for the thicker/more substantial one, plastic black hangers left on two of our floral arrangements lining the ceremony aisle (Fiori Florals) and a cake that was NOTHING like we selected. It was on a black stand when we selected gold, we paid $60 extra for pearls and there were maybe 12 on the whole cake, the gold icing was yellow/brown, and it tasted and looked nothing like what we originally ate and chose. To top it off, it was dry and crumbly. We ended up giving it to our hotel staff. Mia did not seem prepared to run a wedding. She sent the MOB down the aisle with an usher walking back, so they had to move to the side. There were good things about the venue, but just be prepared for many things to go wrong. I had every checklist in the world, and it still wasn't enough.

The professionalism and attitude of the venue manager was very horrid. My cousin just had his…read morewedding there a few days ago and I have never felt more disrespected by this venue's manager/planner/owner, whomever she is! When my father and I arrived a half-hour early, we found the door locked as it started to pour rain and thunder and lightning. The rest of the family was already inside setting up and getting ready. This so-called venue manager or whomever was in charge finally saw us standing outside and opened the door and rudely asked with an attitude, "Are you family?" What kind of a question, IS THAT? Also, why in the hell would you lock the outer doors of a wedding venue that is currently occupied? That is a fire hazard! Also, if you have posted business hours, you are not allowed to lock the doors, regardless of whether its by appointment only or not. I was half expecting her to be a gracious hostess and say, "Hello, welcome, are you here for the wedding? Please come in." INSTEAD, before I can respond, she continues to say, "We don't let guests in before the start time, only family." Of course I reply politely as I can that we are family. My father and I were the only two members of my aunt's side of the family attending this wedding. Everyone else that was attending was the bride's family members who came all the way from India, Canada and other parts of the world, and my Uncle's family members who were all local plus family friends. They only had 9 tables and not everyone even came. I'm actually very glad that my mother, who is wheelchair-bound, could not attend because this building is not ADA compliant by law. She wouldn't have been able to use the bathroom or enjoy the patios without someone helping her up and down. When we got inside and greeted our family, I could clearly see that this wedding was not going to be starting right at 5:30. (I even had offered when we arrived to help put out the name cards for the tables on the guestbook table for them so they could focus on the food and the bar, and I was immediately dismissed with the rudest attitude from this manager.) They claimed it was because of the rain and that they were going to have the blessing outside and were trying to wait for it to pass, but by 5:30, they hadn't even bothered to open up the bar or put out hor d'oeuvres. They didn't even have coffee made, and we couldn't even get a soda, they just had water and tea ready. It wasn't until 6 or so that my cousin finally walked over to the bar, told the bartender he was the groom and wanted the bar opened because people were stuck standing around the staff scrambled to finish setting things up they should have been brought out at 5:25 PM. My cousin told me that because they didn't open the bar on time, they didn't use their money's worth of alcohol. People were coming to this blessing/reception for an already married couple, expecting some sort of food for them to much on right away, and it wasn't served until nearly 7 PM. it was nearly 8 PM by the time I got my food. The salmon was so dry and overcooked and was cold because of their delay. The staff was also rushing around trying to move things along once it got going. They brought out COLD PIZZA at 10 PM that should have been brought out way earlier. They didn't cut the cake until after everyone was done eating. It should have been cut up while everyone was being served their plated dinners. As someone who has worked in the customer/food service/retail/restaurant industries for the last 20+ years, I WOULD NEVER EVER run my own business like this, treat my clients' guests horribly. I always LOVE it when I work and it's clear I'm struggling and my customers or regulars immediately ask to help. I have never seen so much disorganization from a venue since my own wedding at a completely different venue in another county in Ohio five and a half years ago. Don't use this venue, clearly others have had the same issue with the professionalism and speediness of this staff.

Finally got over here. It's right around the corner from us, in a historic building and with a…read moregreat history of hosting famous musicians. Every Friday night they have their house big band, and they also host weddings, etc. Parking was easy on a Friday in May, though getting off and on Sunbury can be rough if there's any traffic at all. The building has been restored and is beautiful inside. The acoustics are very good, and the house band is great. Plenty of comfy chairs and assorted sizes of tables. Sit on the main floor or the balcony. A small bar downstairs, and others around that I'm sure are used for bigger events. Photos of famous singers are scattered around, and there's a list of famous bands that have played there on one wall. There wasn't a big crowd when we went, which is good for dancing and picking a seat but worrisome when I think about how busy this place used to be. It'd be a great place for a wedding reception, anniversary party, high school graduation, etc. Maybe that's where they make most of their money. For us, $15 each for adults and $10 for kids for a night of great music.

Deceptive Practices and Unprofessional Service at La Navona…read more I recently had my wedding at La Navona, and the experience was incredibly disappointing due to the lack of professionalism, poor communication, and deceitful practices by the wedding planner, Kelsey Ireland. From the start, Kelsey was difficult to reach, adding unnecessary stress to the wedding planning process. Despite paying for her services, she rarely responded to my emails or texts and was often unavailable. On the day of the wedding, despite clear weather and only a 15% chance of rain, Kelsey insisted on moving my ceremony indoors. She claimed she had been trying to contact me, but there were no missed calls on my phone. One of the most frustrating aspects of the day was the wedding ceremony program, which was included in my package. Kelsey promised to fix the program the night before the wedding, but she didn't follow through. The next morning, just hours before the wedding, she told me the best she could do was to enlarge the existing program without making any real changes. This forced me to scramble and fix the program myself on the morning of my wedding--a task that should never have been my responsibility. Kelsey was also rude to some of my guests and my bridal party, which is completely unacceptable. Additionally, she didn't stay for the entire wedding, and we were not informed she would be leaving early, despite having paid for her to be there. The wedding was also understaffed, with no hors d'oeuvres brought to the bridal party during pictures, and no announcements made for guests to take their favors or the small rum cakes we provided--resulting in hundreds of dollars lost. To make matters worse, Kelsey assured me that La Navona would provide shade for our musicians, but when the day came, no shade was provided. I had to pay out of pocket at the last minute to ensure the musicians weren't left in the sun. This kind of deceit and lack of follow-through from Kelsey at La Navona is simply unacceptable. Guests reported that Kelsey was telling them the pictures were done, causing us to miss photos with some family members. We are also missing our cake topper, which was not returned to us at the end of the night. Instead of enjoying my wedding day, I was left emotionally distressed due to the numerous issues caused by Kelsey and the venue's staff. This is not the wedding day I paid for. The overall experience was marred by unprofessionalism, poor communication, and outright lies. I cannot recommend La Navona or Kelsey Ireland to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy venue for their special day.
