Angie Sent on 11/15/2025Picture Perfect Venue
From the first meeting with owner, Margaret, our daughter knew this was the venue she wanted. My husband and I and her fiance (now husband) couldn't agree more. We left the meeting and said it was obvious Margaret loved what she does and we felt confident that it was going to be great. It was! Throughout the planning process everything went very smoothly! The wedding day was picture perfect from dawn until dusk! Best day ever, best venue ever. Margaret and her staff made sure the entire day went smooth and it was absolutely amazing. They did an awesome job on decorating and bringing our daughter's vision to life. The wait staff and bartenders were terrific also. Margaret also worked really well with outside vendors that we used - photographer, caterer, baker, DJ et. -

Our wedding at Bloom & Bower B&B was an absolute dream come true! Truly 5 stars is not enough! From the moment we toured the space, we knew it was the perfect place to say “I do.” The venue offers both beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, so we had flexibility no matter the weather. Every inch of the property is thoughtfully designed and wedding-ready. They truly thought of everything — tables, chairs, and linens were included, which made planning so much easier. The wedding party suites were spacious and comfortable, giving us the perfect spot to relax and get ready. We loved that we could bring in our choice of vendors, giving us the freedom to make the day uniquely ours. One of the biggest highlights was the day-of coordination—our coordinator kept everything running smoothly and stress-free. The venue also provided tents, which were a beautiful backup option and made the outdoor space even more versatile. We had full access to their decorating closet, which was a huge bonus, and their team even helped us decorate—such a time saver! Spending our wedding night at the onsite BnB was the perfect way to end the best day ever. It was cozy, private, and just steps away from the celebration. Guests loved the bartender service and the thoughtful refreshments offered before the ceremony. Everything was beautifully set up and torn down for us—no stress, no hassle. There were even fun yard games for guests to enjoy during cocktail hour, plus stunning calligraphy signage throughout the venue that added such a personal, elegant touch. And we can’t forget the parking attendant and valet service—our guests were well taken care of from the moment they arrived. Every detail was perfect, and the entire team went above and beyond to make our wedding unforgettable. If you’re looking for a venue that’s beautiful, stress-free, and all-inclusive (but still customizable), look no further. We cannot recommend Bloom & Bower highly enough! -

If you are looking for a venue that is not only beautiful, but will make all of your dreams come true, look no further. I would give Bloom and Bower a 10 out of 5 if I could. The value of the venue is extraordinary. It was so wonderful getting to sleep on site at the venue since it is a bed and breakfast, we even had our whole bridal party stay on site and had our rehearsal dinner there. It was so great to not have to leave the property all weekend and not worry about forgetting anything because it was all right there. The greatest part of this venue is the owners themselves. Margaret basically acts as a day-of coordinator and goes above and beyond to make sure that everything is exactly how you envisioned. She fixes any problems that arise and if I had a crazy idea her response was always, "let's make it happen." Margaret worked wonderfully with all of our other vendors as well. She called each vendor the week before the wedding to make sure everything was ready to go. She also had so much good advice for life and marriage. The venue also had staff that set everything up and tore everything down, which means our bridal party and family got to enjoy themselves. The staff was so kind and helpful and made everything look exactly like my vision. I didn't even have to hire a florist because Margaret and her staff built all of our centerpieces and ceremony florals from their stock of florals. When you book with Bloom and Bower you also have access to a HUGE (and I mean huge) number of decorations that Margaret has curated, meaning you can spend your money on other aspects of the big day. The communication with the venue was excellent. They always got back to me in a super timely fashion and answered all of my questions (there were a lot of them). The professionalism of Margaret, Thomas and their staff really showed. And all of this didn't break our bank. The gardens are also absolutely gorgeous, as well as the gazebo and inside of the reception barn. I highly, highly recommend getting married here. -

We chose Bloom & Bower for our wedding reception and it was the best decision we could have ever made (aside from marrying each other, of course). The venue itself was beautiful and was decorated to match our ideas and beyond. We were able to make use of the indoor and outdoor spaces during the reception. The property is gorgeous and there is plenty of space for picture opportunities and for guests to walk around or play yard games. My bridesmaids and I used the bed and breakfast the night before and got ready there in the morning. It was perfect and made for great getting ready photos. Plus the decorations are so cute inside.
The Bloom & Bower staff exceeded all our our expectations and were ready to help with anything and everything. They were also beyond kind. In preparation from the reception, we were able to meet with the owner multiple times to tour the venue and for two planning meetings to make sure she understood exactly what we were hoping for. The owner, Margaret, is the most kind and genuine person. She was so supportive of all of our ideas and was there to make sure our day went smoothly. I will recommend this place to everyone! I couldn't imagine having our special day anywhere else.

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Bloom & Bower! From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the venue’s stunning beauty. The real highlight, however, was the incredible team behind it. The owners and staff are some of the most humble, caring, and personable people you’ll ever meet.
Margaret, who officiated our wedding, was phenomenal! She guided us through every step of the planning process, making it so easy to choose décor from their amazing closet full of options. Seriously, the selection is jaw-dropping! She also provided invaluable recommendations for vendors, checking in regularly to ensure we felt supported and confident.
When unexpected rain threatened our outdoor plans, the staff jumped into action, setting up a tent at the last minute. Their commitment to making our day perfect was evident throughout. We couldn't feel more grateful.
After the festivities, we enjoyed a cozy night at the bed and breakfast on-site, complete with a delicious breakfast catered just for us the next morning. The staff setup and teardown for you. This meant we could truly relax and enjoy every moment of our day, with zero stress!
Thank you, Bloom & Bower, for making our wedding day beautiful and unforgettable! We can’t wait to return for our anniversary celebration! -

The best venue ever
Literally speechless!
The venue is phenomenal! We received so many compliments all night, and it was very accommodating to all of our guest! The Airbnb was amazing and kept our close friends and family entertained waiting for the wedding the start! Margaret even came in and grabbed a cricket that snuck inside with her bare hands 😂 now that’s service! The staff was truly amazing when i tell you i didn’t lift a single finger the day of my wedding i am so serious! Everyone was so friendly and helpful and made the day run so smoothly! I don’t think i could’ve done my wedding day without margaret by my side. she eased my worries, made sure i was hydrated and always had a smile on her face! Everytime something unexpected would pop up she would jump into action and resolve the issue! i am seriously so thankful we chose this venue and will recommend it to everyone i come across!!
I would give this place a million stars if i could! -

Very involved and helpful every step of the way
They go above and beyond with everything to make your day perfect seemless and stress free. There were several consult meetings where she checked in on our visions, preferences, and worries. They have several services offered and we utilized almost every one for our wedding and it was beautiful. They also made us breakfast the next morning after the wedding.

Bloom & Bower 100/100
I can't say enough about the incredible venue and the amazing staff! From the moment I stepped on to the property, I was taken aback by the stunning atmosphere. The space was beautifully designed, blending style and functionality in a way that made everything feel special. Every corner was thoughtfully curated, creating an ambiance that was both inviting and energizing.
The staff? Absolutely top-notch! They were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. The set up, greeting of guests with genuine warmth, or simply being available for any requests, their dedication was evident. It was clear that they truly cared about making the experience unforgettable.
The seamless coordination and attentiveness made everything run so smoothly, allowing guests to indulge in the moment without a single worry. I can’t remember the last time I experienced such a perfect blend of great service and beautiful surroundings. This venue and its staff truly set a new standard for excellence! I can't recommend them enough! -

Book this venue now!
I cannot express the lengths margaret, tom and their whole team will go to make sure your wedding day is not only beautiful but that everything that you may have not have even thought about is already figured out. Margaret was made to do this job and she makes it look effortless! Me and my husband traveled from metro detroit to have our wedding at bloom & bower because we knew from the moment we saw the venue and met Margaret that this was it. Having the bed and breakfast on site was amazing as well, it was so nice being able to spend time with close family after the wedding ended and get to enjoy the amenties the property offered. If you have any doubt about having your wedding here, please rest assured as Margaret told me numerous times during planning and the day of our wedding they got you, and they truly do. We cant wait to celebrate our anniversary at the bed and breakfast. -

I would 100% recommend having your wedding here as it was the best day I could of imagined! -

Dear Future Brides and Grooms and Bloom and Bower Staff and Owners,
I hope this note finds you well. I simply cannot contain my joy as I sit down to write to you about the stunning experience we had at our wedding venue. From the moment we set foot on the grounds, we were greeted by the most attentive and caring staff I have ever encountered. Their dedication to making our special day absolutely perfect was unparalleled. Every detail was meticulously taken care of, leaving us free to simply enjoy the magic of the day.
The owners and staff went above and beyond to ensure that everything went seamlessly. They treated our wedding as if it were the most important event they had ever hosted, and their genuine care and support truly made all the difference. It's not often that you find individuals who are so genuinely invested in ensuring the happiness and satisfaction of their guests, but they truly embodied this spirit.
In the end, our wedding felt like a fairytale come true, and we owe so much of that to the amazing venue and the incredible people who made it all possible. The cost is amazing, for all they do you will not find anything better. Trust and Believe! The Owners are amazing people! Our hearts are full of gratitude for their tireless efforts and unwavering commitment to creating a day that we will cherish for a lifetime.
With heartfelt thanks,
The Torres :) -

Christopher Sent on 12/29/2023Organized, pleasant, detail oriented, friendly, and so much more.
Bloom and Bower is the place to marry your significant other/best friend/confidant. We selected Tom & Margaret Hunt and their beautiful property as the location which we celebrated our wedding with all our friends and family. The accommodations are amazing we felt so fortunate to be there.
Their staff is incredibly friendly and were so supportive during our entire event. Bloom and Bower is a hidden piece of paradise in rural Ohio that has so much charm, character, and beauty.
As a couple we loved the backdrop the property provided for pictures. Our guests enjoyed roaming the grounds and exploring. Tom & Margaret Hunt really take pride in their wedding venue and have the skill set to make every couple feel at home, relaxed, and give them the best celebration anyone could ever dream of.
Margaret is the queen of coordination and wedding planning. She took on the role as our wedding planner/coordinator her experience and expertise in this field calmed our anxiety about the details and decisions that needed to be made. With Margaret we knew nothing was going to be missed.
We had our ceremony and reception at Bloom & Bower. We also stayed the night in the “Glamping Tent” during our wedding night. It was such a fun experience to be tucked away on the property in a fully furnished, completely comfortable, and private space. Also on site is a beautiful barn style structure that a group of our guests stayed in after the reception concluded. All of the spaces were thoroughly enjoyed by us and our guests. The amenities were plentiful and everyone gave nothing but the best compliments of Bloom & Bower.
We highly recommend Bloom & Bower to anyone searching for a wedding venue. It will be one of the best decisions you make when planning your wedding. -

My fiance and I got engaged in May 2023, and by August 12th we were married. I literally could not have done it without the help of Margaret. One of the first things she said to me was "I've planned weddings in a shorter time frame than this. We can definitely make it happen" and she most certainly did not disappoint. Margaret perfectly captured my vision and offered advice in such a respectful way. She acted as wedding coordinator for day-of and truly made sure everything ran smoothly. Decor, set-up, tear-down, tables, chairs, and ceremony on the property are all included, and there is a variety of items to choose from for every type of bride. Her staff was incredibly professional and assisted in keeping the ceremony and reception moving along in a timely manner. All my guests were impressed by the property, the ceremony (Margaret officiated), and the flow of the entire day. Thank you Margaret! It was the most beautiful, most memorable day, and I appreciate you so much! -

Alex Sent on 07/23/2023Absolutely amazing
From the very first day that we met Margaret, we felt so welcomed and at home. She was an incredible planner (I didn’t have to do anything, which was great), a great communicator (emails answered within a day, even on nights or weekends), and insanely flexible.
The grounds, decorations, and setup was gorgeous. We let Margaret have pretty much full reign over everything, and she somehow nailed everything and knew exactly what we were looking for.
We also invited our two dogs to be in the wedding. We asked if she had a staff member who could release them during their moment (which she 100% did not have to do). Her husband, Tom, was ready and willing. He worked with our dogs beforehand to make sure they were comfortable with him, listened to our tips for them, and chased one of our dogs around who just did not want to walk up the aisle. He never left them alone and made sure that they made it up to us (which, again, did not have to do).
The staff was incredibly attentive; from the moment we arrived, they greeted us and asked what they could help us with. They set everything up where we asked, and tore everything down at the end of the night. We hardly had to lift a finger.
If I could, I would have a complete redo of the day just to work with the lovely staff at Bloom & Bower. Everyone involved made our day so special, and we absolutely cannot thank them enough. -

Could not have asked for a better experience! Margaret was placed on this earth to do this job and she does it exceptionally well! She made the best days of our lives that much more special! From the time we checked in to the time we checked out we felt like we were the only couple that mattered and when she cooked us a homemade breakfast the day after our wedding it put the icing on the cake. If you want to have not only the best day, but the best weekend of your life book with bloom and bower! -

Our wedding experience was what we dreamed of and more because of Bloom and Bower! Staff is so kind, attentive and help make the day flow! Margaret is a fantastic wedding coordinator! She is very thorough with planning, making sure she captured every detail! She wanted to know our likes and dislikes, sense of style everything to help not only make sure we had the wedding of our dreams, But to also make the process of planing easier for us as well! I loved the fact she has a room just dedicated to decore, center pieces, swags, floral, center pieces and more! Did I mention they set up and take down!! Right there is a bonus it self! They have an on-site Bed and Breakfast with all amenities and more with plenty of rooms for either your family to stay the nite before your big day or just the newlyweds. Our experience was over the top! I will 100% recommend Bloom & Bower for any occasion! -

Amazing. Two Years in a Row!
This venue is just absolutely amazing. We booked under Sarah and Mike, had our small wedding ceremony with them in 2020, and then had our vow renewal ceremony and reception in 2021 with Tom and Margaret. Both teams of crews were just so helpful and were 1000 percent competent in running our special days. They were so helpful in planning beforehand and also during our days. Tom even ran to the grocery store mid-reception to grab more ice and alcohol for us when we ran out quicker than we expected. The value for this venue is incredible and so much is included when you book here. They have so many decorations and cute signs and decor that we felt like we didn't have to buy a ton. All of our guests commented on how gorgeous the scenery and venue space is here and we felt so well taken care of. Parking was just across the street. We also stayed in the Barn the night of our reception and had a fantastic stay and one of the best bbreakfastss w've had in a long time (complete with local farm bacon!). If you decide on this venue for your event, you will not be disappointed, I can assure you of that! -

Affordable, LGBTQ+ inclusive venue in Ohio
Margaret and Tom were wonderful! They helped walk us through every step of planning and were always willing to answer our many, many questions. Margaret has a wonderful eye for detail and design; she helped us transform our vague ideas into a beautiful set-up. They really went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. They even found someone to pick up and deliver our reception food when there was a mix-up with the restaurant. This venue is an amazing value! -

A hidden gem!!
When we set out to look for a venue for our wedding day, we were looking for that rustic, fall time wedding. We didn't have to visit many before we found this hidden gem. Not only do you get the venue, which is cozy, warm, and welcoming, you get wedding planners INCLUDED. We didn't have to touch a thing the day of our wedding, we spent the night before at the Bed and Breakfast, they came, asked questions, set it all up for us, came and got me and I was blown away by what they had done! The night after the wedding, we had a night alone in their big red barn suite, and let me tell you what, they have made that place into a dream suite! Breakfast was served both days to us and our guests in their cottage style B&B both days, didn't matter how many people we had, they made us feel right at home. THEY EVEN PUT OUR CAKE TOGETHER AND DECORATED IT FOR US!!
Mike and Sarah are an awesome couple, and do amazing work, and if you are looking for a venue, BOOK IT NOW!! -

This venue is located on a secluded property filled with gardens, a pond, barns, and has a secret feel. They offer SO many extras with your venue rental. Sarah and Mike were very responsive in all questions we had, offered help where needed, and the consultation was very thorough and friendly. We can not wait to have our wedding here next Fall! Def worth the drive out to the country if you are looking for this kind of setting. -

Heather Sent on 06/06/2020Canceled Our Contract
Canceled our contract 3 months out from our wedding during a global pandemic because I asked questions about COVID precautions. Sent passive agressive emails. Went back on their word about allowing us extra time for payments. I sent a payment when she didn't reply to my email and that night she refunded it and said they canceled our contract due to nonpayment. We are left without a venue 3 months out and have nowhere to have our wedding now. I'm disabled with no income so this is devastating financially.
