The Old Blue Rooster Event Center Reviews

This venue is absolutely beautiful, especially if you are planning an outdoor ceremony. And if Ohio weather is cooperating with you, they have made an inside ceremony area that is absolutely stunning as well. Lorraine and her team were so helpful from start to finish. Any questions i had, Lorraine was just a short text away. This venue also has a lodge on site that came with the package we had choosen, we used it for the bridal party to get ready. I loved that we could get ready and leave all of our stuff in there while we were at our wedding. I loved that we were able to have our ceremony and reception all in the same place. The Old Blue Rooster has so many different affordable packages and they allow you to bring in your own food. They have a bar onsite and it comes with staff. If they don't have the alcohol you want, they are able to order it for you. I would defiantly recommend this place to anyone looking to get married.

Lorraine was amazing to work with throughout. She was always responsive to our questions and the guests couldn’t stop complimenting how beautiful the venue was. The staff the day of were super helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!!

I walked in on our wedding day and it literally took my breath away, it was so beautiful. The Old Blue Rooster and their team were incredible and handled everything we needed — we didn’t have to think about or manage any of it on our big day, we just got to enjoy! And our guests loved it. From the initial tour to booking to communicating all the details to the big day, everything was TOO easy…we expected it all to be so much more work & stress — it wasn’t! We can’t recommend OBR enough!

This venue was exactly what we were looking for. Rustic exterior with a modern interior reception space. With a getting ready space for the girls and now a suite for the guys to get ready in. It had everything you could need and more. With multiple packages to choose from to stay within your budget. Lorraine, the owner, was very informative, helpful and responsive as we were planning. Glad we found this place!

This venue was perfect for our wedding! Lorraine is so easy to work with and really makes the entire process stress free and seamless. The venue itself is so beautiful and the reception space was the perfect size for our guests. Overall a really great experience!

The Old Blue Rooster was the perfect venue for our wedding. Our wedding day went flawlessly and the OBR had a big part in it. It has gorgeous spots for pictures and is close to larger cities while also feeling very secluded and peaceful. OBR was budget friendly and very accommodating. We loved our time here and would definitely recommend the OBR to any event!

Beatiful property and very flexible to help meet all your expectations and requirements

We found the Old Blue Rooster, and it was truly a hidden gem (at the time!). Their prices are good, and the service was AMAZING! Lorraine was so helpful during the planning process- she never forgot a detail or pushed anything on me that I didn't want! At the last minute, she, Bud, and Natalee made sure we had lots of heaters for our guests' comfort.

The venue itself (we used what they call OBR 1 in Groveport) is BEAUTIFUL- we didn't need to do much decorating, which saved us money! Its a location that naturally lends itself to a beautiful wedding, and has an amazing crew behind it. They have good relationships with local vendors, but also encourage you to use who YOU want, truly making it your day, and not a cookie-cutter wedding.

The space is beautiful and the staff was amazing!

We loved it from start to finish Lorraine was wonderful the center was ready to go as agreed the price was fantastic as well

I have absolutely nothing bad to say about my experience at the OBR Barn! Not only is the venue incredibly beautiful, but the staff are unbeatable! Lorraine, event manager, is so kind, accommodating, and easy to get ahold of. She was always quick to answer questions, make changes to our plan as needed, and always tried hard to accommodate any requests we had. Our experience with Lorraine alone would have been enough for me to recommend this venue to anyone & everyone! However, the night of our wedding, we got to meet even more staff who helped us set up and clean up and ran the bar for the event, and they were just as wonderful! I am so incredibly grateful to OBR for the perfect wedding experience. A few tips on the Barn: 1. Rent the lodge! It’s worth the extra money to have extra space right there on the property! And it’s a great getaway space if you need a break or a quiet moment alone with your new spouse. 2. They have a liquor license, so you must purchase alcohol through the venue and cannot bring outside alcohol. But they have so many options! & when we realized the night before that we wanted champagne for mimosas during our morning of getting ready, it was so easy for me to reach out and ask them to have some available for us and add it to our bar tab! 3. Ask them about their associate vendors! They have a Day of Coordinator/Planner that does weddings there all the time, so she is very knowledgeable about the venue & best way to do things. They also work closely with a linens company, that was so hassle-free! They had the linens there for us when we arrived, and all we had to do at the end of the night was leave them in a bag at the venue! Both of these vendors were extremely affordable and made all the difference in our day! 4. Don’t second guess it, just book here!! They have two beautiful locations to choose from, & the incredible staff will make your day so stress free and wonderful. You won’t regret it!

Courteous, very profesional. It’s a very nice place to do events very clean, and have everything expected. It’s nice to take pics

We needed an large space for our twins graduation party. The Shelter House was perfect. The grounds have several wonderful backdrops for wedding portraits - gazebo, swing, covered bridge, pond, etc. The fireplace in the facility is a great centerpiece. The back kitchen is perfect for prep work and storing extra food/drinks. The staff was great. They worked with us and always responded in a timely manner. We had approximately 200 people at the party and didn't feel crowded. We'll be back perhaps in the future for a wedding.

OBR Shelter house is absolutely beautiful!! Perfect place for fall weddings

We could not of chosen a better venue to get married at. Lorraine and the staff at The Old Blue Rooster were amazing to work with, even during a pandemic. We had the most perfect day there.

It was perfect for my daughter’s bridal shower. The Lodge is beautiful and the staff is amazing and very accommodating. We will use this venue in the future!

The Old Blue Rooster Barn is a wonderful place to have a wedding and reception. We had our son’s reception there 3 years ago and my daughter’s wedding and reception in November. Lorraine and her team are absolutely awesome. The venue is beautiful inside and outside. I would highly recommend The Barn for any of your party needs.

Our wedding was nothing short of perfect. Lorraine was very personable and so kind. She was very flexible and willing to work with us. She had many different options for brides with any budget. The venue was absolutely beautiful. I couldn’t have asked for more!

We loved having our wedding at The Old Blue Rooster- The Barn. It was beautiful, just the right amount of space, close to many hotels in the area, and has a separate ceremony location. Lorraine was amazing to work with and everyone on staff helped make our day the best! We had many compliments about the location and highly recommend The Old Blue Rooster to anyone looking for a magical venue!

The Barn at the Old Blue Rooster was one of kind and beautiful! Lorraine was amazing and so helpful!! The outdoor space for the ceremony was everything we hoped for and the bridal lodge was so perfect for all of us girls to get ready!

My wedding here was better than I ever could have imagined! The space is just beautiful and the staff were so accommodating. I highly recommend this venue to everyone!

You really can't go wrong with either location at Old Blue Rooster. They are both amazingly beautiful and the staff is great to work with. During the planning process, I had a lot of questions and Lorraine was more than happy to keep me on track not only with my budget, but with what I would need the day of. Even things I never would have thought of! Jessica was with me the day of and was so helpful if I need anything. Overall- We are completely satisfied with the entire process but especially our day! We couldn't have asked for a better venue.

We are so thankful we had at our wedding and reception at The Old Blue Rooster: The Shelter House! Lorraine and Jessica were so kind, flexible, and organized. Everything was beautiful and perfect, and I would definitely recommend having your wedding here! The scenery was gorgeous, there was plenty of space, and the staff was amazing. All of our vendors had plenty of space, there were plenty of tables for our guests and food and vendors. They had linens on site to be rented as well as a drink trough, a drink stand with plenty of drinks and ice, and beautiful decor like a hoop for greenery. I am so pleased!

Lorraine provided us with EXCELLENT service, she was extremely flexible and knowledgeable with vendors to the ins and outs of planning a wedding.

FANTASTIC venue! It was just what we were hoping to find. They were great to work with. We were so taken by the place that we actually had the Bridal Shower there as well. Its the total package!!
