The venue is beautiful and the staff feel like family!

I cannot begin to describe how happy we are that we booked basil place for our wedding. I planned our Cleveland wedding from out-of-state, and Michelle from the get-go was so flexible in setting up tours for my family and fiancé when we got into town. First, I'll speak about the venue itself: it is absolutely the most beautiful place I've ever seen. The whole farm is surrounded by beautiful nature, trees, and ponds, and rolling pastures. We were able to have a beautiful outdoor ceremony, get ready in the carriage house, and use the manor house for pictures, hanging out, and pre-wedding snacks. Our reception was in the barn, which is so gorgeous and opens up onto a patio with views of rolling fields and reflecting ponds (which are stocked with bass if you feel like fishing like some of our guests did!) There was so much space for our reception we were able to set up cornhole and spikeball outside the barn which made for such a fun evening. Our guest loved taking pictures all around the property. I cannot say enough good things about how perfect this venue was for our wedding!

I also have to mention how absolutely wonderful and above and beyond Michelle and her staff were throughout every step of the wedding process. Michelle truly feels like family to us. She made the process so easy and was so accommodating to all of our requests. She checked on us so many times leading up to and the day of the wedding- we truly felt so taken care of It is so apparent that this is not just a business to her, but truly her passion.

Their preferred caterer, A Taste Of Excellence, was hands-down the best experience with a caterer we've ever had. Mikaela was so kind and flexible, and the food was absolutely to die for we were so impressed with them that we had them cater our welcome dinner as well. They do so many weddings at basil place that they are very familiar with set up and where to go, which makes for that much smoother of a day. All the catering staff were so kind and friendly and added to the positive atmosphere.

In summary, if we could go back in time, we would choose Basil Place 100 times over!!

The best ever!

10/10. 5-stars. Michelle and the family are absolutely the best.

We got married at Basil Place on May 25, 2024 and it was the most fun day of our lives. We were able to stay overnight at Basil with our wedding party which made it an even better decision. Plus, getting to bring our stuff from home earlier in the week was such a stress reliever.

If you’re looking for a wedding venue…you really can’t go wrong. 🤍

We absolutely LOVE Basil Place!!

We absolutely LOVE Basil Place!! We could of not picked a more perfect venue for our June wedding! We booked the full weekend package where we had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and overnight stay all at the venue. It was so nice that we were able to have all of our events at one location and that we were able to stay at the venue the whole weekend long. It made it so easy for our wedding party, close family, and us to have an easy going and joyful weekend altogether! Michelle, the owner and coordinator of Basil Place was more than accommodating of our needs, she went above and beyond for us! She was always there answering all of our questions, let us set up early on the Friday before, allow us to bring our dogs, and even allow us to incorporate our very own tradition on the grounds of the venue! We got to be the very first couple to start the "Buried Bourbon Tradition" at Basil Place. The tradition is to bury a bottle of bourbon on the grounds of your wedding venue, a month before your date. Once the ceremony is over, the couple digs up the bottle and shares a celebratory drink with the wedding party and family. The tradition says it will bring good weather and good luck. It truly did bring us lots of luck, because it poured for hours before our ceremony. It stopped raining about 30 minutes before guests arrived, the sun came out, and we had a perfect rest of the day! We LOVE Basil Place so much and we truly had the best wedding weekend!
