Historic Onesto Event Center

Lynae brings a passion for story and design to your special moments held at the Onesto Event Center and the Old Stone Chapel. Lynae’s flair for event planning is rooted in fashion and design, having earned a degree in Fashion Merchandising from Kent State University.

“The first time I set foot in the Onesto I could feel that it had a real story,” says Lynae. “The history here is so rich. I then learned that everything possible was done to restore this old hotel to its original state which gives it such a beautiful nostalgia.”

She recognizes that every event tells a story, too – whether it’s a wedding, business event or other celebration.

Lynae appreciates the facilities and their location. She enjoys giving tours to show guests the impressive details. “The lobby is majestic and breathtaking, while the bridal suites have such a special historic feel,” she says. “The views of downtown Canton from the suites are something that can’t be seen from anywhere else.”

“I am always enthusiastic about meeting with clients and sharing my passion for downtown Canton,” she adds.
Lynae is dedicated to helping you plan your special occasion to exceed your expectation and create an event you will remember forever.
