All you could ever ask for

This venue is great, especially for the value. You don't have to pay a fortune for a great venue and a great wedding.
La Navona was amazing to work with because it's all inclusive (food, drinks, etc.) and they set up all your decor for you. It's wonderful for a crazy busy bride on wedding weekend!! And they did an amazing job with all the decor I brought, plus they added some of their own extra decor to make everything even cuter.
The food we chose was the Asiago Chicken and Steak and Shrimp and both were great!! The appetizers were great as well, the potato pops are so tasty and were a big hit!
Everything with this venue was so easy going. If there was ever a problem, I (the bride) never knew about it and was able to relax and just enjoy our wedding day.
Big thank you to all the people who helped out, especially Tracey - She is amazing to work with and is so excited to make your vision a reality. Truly one of the best parts about this venue is Tracey and the other team members who helped. :)

Incredible Venue!

We want to give a huge thank you to Fallon and all of the other staff at La Navona for making our wedding incredibly special!
They were all amazing to work with. We had booked the venue two years in advance due to the pandemic, and in that time, we worked with multiple event coordinators there. We met Fallon a few months before the wedding, and she took over as if she had been helping us since the beginning! She was extremely helpful in planning all of the last-minute details for the big day, and she was so much fun to work with. The day before the wedding, we dropped off all of our decorations, and the La Navona team set everything up for us. We came in on the day of the wedding, and everything was beautiful! Fallon and the other staff members were so helpful and did everything they could to make sure things ran smoothly the whole evening. They even had a backup plan for a ceremony inside in case it decided to rain. The venue is beautiful, the food was amazing, and we are so grateful to everyone for making it an incredible day! Thank you so much!!!

No hassle, reasonable pricing, great food, amazing team!

Right when I stepped inside La Navona we knew we had found our venue! It is beautiful inside and so convenient! Everything in one spot for a ceremony and reception makes it stress free! Not to mention it is very reasonable pricing, all inclusive bar and wine, DJ, in-house catering, wedding day coordinator, I could go on. The guests told me how they loved the food! The chicken Florentine, chorizo empanadas, and buffalo chicken dip was a big hit! Well-fed guests are happy guests. The team at La Navona is amazing and Tracey goes above and beyond for customer satisfaction!! She stepped right in with no problem when my original coordinator left for a career change. She’s an absolute rock star. My only feedback is I had wished I had known what time the coordinator shift ended and we had a hiccup with the staff when she left because they set up chairs for tomorrow’s venue and we needed to do our photos in the area. I had to be on the verge of tears to have it moved but another waitress stepped in to make it happen. Other than that small incident, I really highly recommend La Navona because of the overwhelmingly positives I had. They also worked with me around the pandemic, they handled it amazingly.

Our Wedding at La Navona

Our Wedding at La Navona was amazing! Kristie, Nick and Becca did an great job and made planning super easy. They were flexible with changes and always promptly responded to my emails. We really appreciated how they had suggestions on vendors, decorations, and the event schedule. The venue is beautiful, we didn't need to spend a lot of money on decor (just some center pieces and flowers). It's also in a great location for our friends that live in Columbus. With an open bar, they appreciated that it was an easy to place to Uber to and from. Our wedding was awesome and we can't thank everyone at La Navona enough.

Best wedding EVER!

I was just married here and I could not recommend this place enough. Kristie was there every step of the way and took such pride in making our day special. The venue is stunning once you walk through the doors. My florist said it is the easiest venue they have ever worked with. Food was wonderful, staff was friendly and I have had many guests tell me it is the best wedding they have ever been to! If you are looking for a reasonably all-inclusive place to hold your wedding, you cannot go wrong with La Navona. We paid for 200 people and when only 170 RSVP'd, we received our balance right away. Perfect venue for a perfect wedding! The staff felt like family and genuinely wanted our day to be seamless!

The Best Day Ever!

Everything turned out amazing! We are so happy that we choose La Navona as our wedding venue. They made everything very easy on us and the day ran smoothly. Nick was wonderful, he was very attentive to us and our guest. I felt as though I did not have to worry about anything. We received so many compliments on the delicious food and beautiful venue. La Navona made planning our wedding stress-free. I would highly recommend checking it out, especially since it is a deceiving venue from the outside. Thank you to the La Navona staff we had an incredible wedding!

A Beautiful Reasonably Priced Stress Free Experience

My husband and I struggled to find a venue that we both loved. We were hesitant at first because the venue is next to a dollar general (which came in handy several times actually on wedding day). But the entrance, interior, and outdoor ceremony space was so beautiful when we came in, we forgot immediately about it being in a strip. Not to mention it's in a perfect location being close to Creekside, Gastby's, the airport, and the Springhill Suites hotel. We left in total agreement this was the venue for us. The general manager, and wedding consultant there were both extremely accommodating. Not to mention, with the venue being all inclusive, we didn't have to hire many outside venders. Made for a very stress free experience. Mark the DJ (included with the venue) was great. With the first song all our guests were on the floor and stayed out there all night. We gave him a lists of artist and a general vibe we were going for and he got us 100%. The food was amazing, with an extremely friendly and attentive catering staff (also included with the venue). They made sure my husband and I got plenty of food (which was great because we were always told you never eat on your wedding day). The bartender, who was also included, got many rave reviews from our guests. La Navona even provided our beautiful centerpieces, linens, champagne for the toasts, and a decorative table topper for our sweetheart table (that the GM Brian had built upon our request and the request of several other couples who liked the trend) La Navona, Kristie, and Brian went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. The only other vendors we ended up hiring outside of La Navona was our photographer and videographer, because La Navona covered every other wedding need we had. And anything they couldn't provide they hooked us up with trusted vendors they had worked with before. We highly recommend Botanical Florist and Amy Ward there, and the Springhill Suites who provided a shuttle from the hotel to La Navona before the ceremony and after the reception. Kristie answered our hundreds of questions and emails and ran the show day of the wedding. We were in great hands with her. She came with us to pick out linens and when we couldn't find something she would either connect us with someone or get it for us herself. We cannot recommend this venue enough.

Wonderful Wedding

Having our big day at La Navona was amazing to say the least. Don't let the location fool you. It's beautiful inside and out back. We planned from the Dayton area and leading up to the big day Kristie sent out important planning reminders, was quick to respond to my questions via email, and maximized our face time together by being organized with details and forms. My husband and I also really enjoyed going to the open house where we got a chance to try the food and see what associated vendors had to offer. Mark, our DJ, was also amazingly organized and just awesome. He did a great job of listening to what we wanted and making it happen. He even skyped with us to plan details for our convenience.

On the big day, Kristie, Mark and the rest of staff were the calm within the storm. All were very accommodating, attentive, and kind. The food was delicious! (Get the Asiago chicken) The serving staff even made sure to drop off some appetizers and donuts at our table because we were too busy to make it over. Mark worked seamlessly with our photographer to make sure our day went as planned and kept our favorite tunes coming. All our guests had a great time. We couldn't have had a better experience. Thanks so much for making our wedding everything we wanted it to be!
