Tall Timbers is a nice banquet hall that was used for a wedding when I was there. It worked nice to…read morehave the wedding in the back wooded area and then the reception in the joining building. It was a regular sized wedding in terms of guests. We sat in white chairs that were set up in the grass while the wedding party, bride, groom, and the officiator stood in front with the trees set as the backdrop. It was a really nice setting. They had a emcee who was in control of the music that was set up to the right. The wedding party walked out of the banquet hall doors down to the front area where they took their spots. The reception happy hour allowed for drinks and hors doeuvres to be accessed inside and enjoyed outside. Some sat in the chairs that were used for the ceremony and others gathered on the side of the reception hall. Once dinner started we enjoyed music and dancing in the banquet area. Low ceilings with good placement of the wedding party and bride and groom. Most had a good view of the entertainment. Overall, well serviced and a good venue for a wedding.

Venue 614 checks SO many boxes when you're trying to find the Goldilocks of venues. Let me tell you…read morewhy: *It is the perfect space for a 50-100 group. *The aesthetics make it easy to dress up or keep casual. It can totally go either way. *NO PRE-SET CATERER. Or florist. Or anyyyyything else. You can literally bring whatever you want. This truly is an event-thrower's dream. *It's in the heart of the action -- the Short North -- but there are plenty of garages and street parking available. And then the biggest win at Venue 614 are the owners, Jen and Doug. To put it bluntly -- they just give a f*ck. About everything. They actually care about your experience, and they are incredibly easy to work with. I helped throw a 70-person holiday party recently, and partnering with Venue 614 was a DREAM. We collaborated together, and they jumped through so many hoops to help make my event great. I felt like we were truly in it together. I want to blab on and on about how amazing Venue 614 is, but hopefully you get the picture by now: The space is versatile and reasonably-priced, the options are limitless, and the owners are a dream team to work with.

I attended a banquet here on June 16, 2025, for the State Softball Coaches' Association, honoring…read morestate-ranked players and their families. At $40 per ticket, I expected a decent experience. Unfortunately, the food quality was extremely disappointing and well below even basic banquet standards. We were greeted with room-temperature water (no ice) and bowls of wilted lettuce that had clearly been sitting out for too long. The main course included a plain, boiled chicken breast--completely unseasoned and stark white in appearance. The green beans tasted like they came straight from a can and were also unseasoned--no butter, garlic, or anything to improve their flavor. The only redeeming item was the lasagna, which was actually quite good and the only part of the meal I finished. I work in the restaurant industry, and I'm not someone who complains easily. But this meal was unacceptable. For an event honoring student-athletes and their families, more care and attention to quality should have been given. I wasn't expecting gourmet dining, but serving 700 guests such poorly prepared food sends a message: if they don't put in the effort for a high-profile banquet like this, I would seriously reconsider trusting them with a once-in-a-lifetime event like a wedding.

Also included was a history tour that let us learn more about the various rail cars present on the property. The tour was fun and informative - we easily could have listened to more!
