    Amazing venue!

    We had our reception 11/05/22 at St. Clarence Pavilion! EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT! So so so many compliments on the food and bar service! Lucy and the Ahern staff went above & beyond to help make our day so special! We were a little nervous about picking the food since we only got to try a few things.. BUT HIGHLY RECOMMEND: Bourbon Chicken, beef tips w/burgundy wine sauce (comes with rice pilaf too), the roasted red pepper pasta, parsley potatoes, and green beans w/bacon. IT WAS ALL SO DELICIOUS! & we took SO MUCH home! We had quite the party/drinking crowd and there was never a line at the bar! The bartenders Ahern provided were AMAZING! We are truly so...

    We had the most amazing wedding!

    We had the most amazing wedding, and all thanks to the amazing venue of St Clarence Pavilion, and Aherns catering. Lucy and her team were absolutely incredible from start to finish. They were extremely hands on during the entire event, and helped us with anything we needed. The food was incredible, and we heard so many wonderful remarks from our guests! If we could do it all over again, we would absolutely have the Aherns team right along with us!

    Lucy did a phenomenal job and always answered my many, many questions promptly. Ahern is the point of contact for all St. Clarence facilities. The moment I saw the indoor/outdoor pavilion I knew that’s where we’d have our reception. It is very rustic looking, but when you dress it up for a wedding (white tablecloths, chair covers, white fabric/lights, etc.) it looks amazing. We got so many compliments on it and it is so roomy – it’s just your reception in the standalone building. All of the doors come off to the deck so people can go outside as well. And when it’s dark and only the strung white lights are on above it is magical :) Ahern’s food...

    Great Venue!

    Planning a wedding is stressful, planning a wedding during Covid is something else. Thank you Lucy for being so helpful! Our night was perfect! The food and service was great! St. Clarence was the perfect venue. It's a large space and also has doors to a deck that we were able to open up. We had guests that felt more comfortable being outside and they could still be part of the reception.

    Great wedding venue!

    Our wedding on 09.14.19 was a perfect one! We had 240 guests and we fit wonderfully in the larger sized ballroom. We had plenty of room for our photo booth, dessert tables (we needed two), and gift tables without making the room look crowded. The food was excellent and we had great reviews from the guests. Lucy made planning very easy. I especially appreciated the phone call a few weeks before the wedding where we go through everything, down to the exact time I wanted dinner served. Lucy also did a great job helping us keep on task the day of. Everything was much more hectic than I was anticipating, so we were running a little behind schedule, but...

    I had my wedding reception in the Burke room in September. I cannot say enough good things about this venue! From the moment we went to see it we knew this is where we wanted to have our reception. The food is AMAZING! Usually you don't hear that about wedding food, but I have had nothing but compliments on our wedding. Lucy is awesome to work with and she will do all she can to make sure your day is prefect! Do your self a favor and check this venue out! You won't be disappointed! If I had to plan a wedding again (never again!) I would keep going back to Ahern's. Thank goodness for word of mouth.

    Several friends of ours from our church have gotten married at St. Clarence and after seeing the lights and decor, I knew I had to get married there. Lucy was so easy to work with and emailed back so quickly! Planning everything was a breeze. Our guests couldn't stop talking about the food and said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Thanks Ahern!

    After looking at venues from West to East, we found this gem by word of mouth from a friend and are so happy we stumbled upon them. Ahern's did our catering at one of their offsite venues-Saint Clarence Pavilion. From the beginning, Lucy was pleasant to deal with and always prompt with her responses. She made the whole planning process a breeze and gave us tips along the way to help us in any way we could. The price was hands down the best and our guests can't stop RAVING about the food and how beautiful the venue was. From start to finish it was stress-free and the best night ever!!! I would choose Ahern's and Saint Clarence again and again!!!

    I can't say enough good things about Ahern's! Our May 23, 2015 wedding was held in the Ashford Hall! The hall is updated and a real show stopper! It fit our 250 guests perfectly! Lucy was so accommodating! I knew she was always a phone call away and she never got irritated with all my phone calls and questions! We were able to come in the Friday before the wedding and set everything up--huge stress relief! The reception went so smoothly and our guests raved about the food! The food was so affordable ($30/plate buffet style) and so delicious! had a beautiful fruit & veggie appetizer display and for our dinner menu we served bourbon chicken, top round with...

    We recently had our wedding (May, 2015) catered by Ahern's catering. It was not held at their banquet center but, at an outside venue. (St. Clarence Pavilion) Our guests RAVED about our food! At around $30 a plate you really can not go wrong with Ahern's. The menu is typical wedding food but, they were more than willing to work with us to find a menu that we desired for our special day. Lucy was absolutely wonderful to work with in both person and over email. We found the best way to communicate was via email as she was very quick to respond and willing to help in all matters. Our menu was burbon chicken, top round with mushroom...

    Our wedding reception was at Ahern's in Burke Hall and it was great. We wanted something all-inclusive and Ahern's offered it all. Lucy, the event coordinator, was great to work with and very helpful. She sometimes doesn't respond immediately to emails, but don't worry - she is always there to help. The Hall is updated and has nice lighting and windows so we barely did any decorations (which was a relief). I dropped our few boxes of decorations off on Thursday and Lucy and her staff set everything up for us on Saturday morning which was a huge stress reliever. The food was good and the drinks were flowing. When the bridal party arrived and was seated, Lucy came...

    We have received so many compliments on our banquet center and on the dinner they served! We opted for a formal sit-down dinner and the food was amazing. The hall is absolutely beautiful, and the center was very easy to work with in coordinating the day. I would highly recommend this site and caterer if you are looking for high quality.

    Got married in Wyoming, then came back to Ohio for a "western" themed reception at St. Clarence. Used the golf-outing food: ribs, BBQ chicken, corn on the cob, etc. Guests are still talking about the food 6 months later!!

    This was our wedding reception venue. Let me start by saying that we were planning this from out of town and could meet or be in the space regularly. During the event the good was incredible. Very high reviews on the grilled salmon with dill, and the grilled veggies. The roasted red pepper pasta is the way to go! Remember wherever you book the event, white sauces tend to be bland, because of the volume that they make it in. Because of that, we chose and were recommended during the tasting to choose the red pepper pasta. It was very very tasty. Bathrooms were clean at all times, and the bartenders were easy and accommodating. The wait and service...

    This location was AMAZING. The hall has lights already strung, full glass window and door surround, a fireplace and is one giant open room. There is plenty of room to set up for a large amount of guests and still have a large dance floor and easy bar access. We were also able to bring in any type of candle as long as it had a base of some sort. It was everything we were looking for in our reception venue.

    When I first started working with the caterer you have to work with, I was very nervous because the initial response time was slow. I met face-to-face with the point of contact which was very helpful....
