We hosted my mother's 80th birthday party at the Berwick Manor in January, 2026. We started…read moreplanning about 6 months in advance. After researching several venues in the Columbus area, Berwick Manor provided an affordable and elegant option with sufficient space, food and alcohol. Prior to the event, we were able to do a tasting and customize the menu to our choices. Leading up to the event, Riley (our contact person) checked in with us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. On the day of, the room was beautiful - set up with color coordinated place settings and everything we asked for. There was a table with a lunch buffet, a cake table, a microphone, and a bar. We were able to come in early to add the decorations that we wanted to add - we brought in balloons, flowers, centerpieces, photographs, etc. Everyone who came was impressed with the space. The servers were courteous, friendly and helpful. At the end of the event, they didn't rush us out, but cleaned up quickly and efficiently. There were no hidden costs after the event. I would recommend hosting here and would be happy to do another event here as well.

Kind of a mixed review. No surprises, everything looked fine, but just would have preferred more…read moreattentive service and better value. Pro: + Lisa agreed to meet up with us at the venue to review the space and plan out the execution which was very helpful. Not sure if this is standard but I consider this a pro. She seemed very friendly when we met her. + Lisa was able to bring her own ladder with short notice for setting up. + Lisa did exactly what we asked for at the time of hiring her, there were no surprises. Cons: - Value: We paid $1,300 to have 5 lines of string lights put up, a white background, and our own Chinese lanterns and garland strung up and torn down. We were told that assembling the lanterns would take too much time for her so we agreed to assemble and attach strings and hooks ourselves. It felt like we brought a lot of our own stuff and were doing whatever we needed to do to make the job easier for her. We just didn't get the service I would have expected for the cost. I really needed a vendor that would do things to make it easier for US. Also, when I called her to initially learn about her services, she said she could not do the work unless she had a full hour to set up before the caterer came. The room is 73 feet long and I thought that they could work around each other but she insisted that it would not work for her which put additional financial burden on us to extend time at the venue. - Communication: Lisa was very short in her emails which made me very uneasy about having selected to work with her. It came across as if she was bothered or too busy. Obviously her demeanor did not impact the final product but she didn't provide the client experience I would have benefited from as a nervous bride. Another instance of this was when we asked for a white fabric background to use as or backdrop for the ceremony. The concept is self explanatory but I was a nervous after only having a high level conversation about it and leaving the execution up to her. Wasn't sure what we were going to get draping style wise. I emailed her to make sure it at least would not be tied back and I didn't get a response. At that point My sentiment was that I would just accept whatever she was going to bring us, I couldn't spend my time following up on every detail with each vendor. Thankfully it just showed up at the event like I had asked. Nothing necessarily went WRONG, I can't say I wouldn't recommend her, but I would want to give someone a heads up about some things. All of these things can be improved upon and some brides may not ever have the same experience or may have felt differently if they had the same experience.

Amazing, amazing, amazing! Such a great person to work with and plan with. She has a creative eye…read moreto suggest decor or ideas to improve the space you are working with. She completely transformed our space into three separate spaces, creating a different vibe for each area. A cocktail area with pipe and drape, ceiling lights. A dinner reception area with beautiful sheer pipe and draping tied back uplit with gold tie backs that were fabulous. Ceiling lights were in the reception area too, then once you opened/pulled back the drapes in the reception, you walked into a club/dance area where our guests could dance the night away. I have been to other events in the space that she decorated, and have never seen it look so amazing. I found her very easy to communicate with, either by email or by text. Very prompt in responding to my messages. She worked well with coordinating with the venue for installation, so that I didn't have to worry about a thing.

Lourdes went beyond the day of coordinator position for our wedding and met with us a few times before the event, went to various vendor meetings, coordinated our rehearsal, made a timeline, helped to set up reception and ceremony décor, picked up breakfast and lunch for the bridal party, and much-much more. Lourdes was personable, friendly, and assertive at the appropriate times, if there was anything that went wrong at our wedding we had no idea! In fact the day was beyond perfect. Lourdes was fantastic!!!

She was very professional and easy to work with - we had a primary coordinator based here in Boston who took care of details during the bulk of planning, but Lourdes was available for consultation/second opinions all the time and we would have been absolutely LOST without her help with coordinating many of the "day of" details and timeline. She is fabulous!

They have their indoor cabins here and of course the outdoor common areas and hiking paths. You cannot imagine how happy I was when I arrived here, I mean the last outdoor camping experience I had was in Dayton and so I pretty much miss the outdoorsy experience. I was so kindly greeted when I arrived here for the Columbus Yoga Festival and given a guide for the day and what will happen around the common grounds. There were two food trucks here. The Little Eater and the Hai Poke. They had the camp tables set up for everyone to eat their lunches there. The space was more than enough to enjoy outdoor yoga. Just the experience of being outdoors and enjoying nature was so great for me. I love outdoorsy events. This particular one spoke to me as my inner yogi came out. They had enough room for vendors to set up their tables for aerial yoga, braids, juice stations, nail stations, etc. It was such a fun day and I wish I could relive it all over again!

At…read morethat time, the tickets were $5 and there was free beer and wine and closeup magic before the start of the show and a big name out of town magician. We returned tonight and ticket prices had increased to $20 (still a great deal) but the experience has CHANGED! No more alcohol or free drinks at all, no more close up magic as you walk in, and the show itself was VERY different. It started with 2 burlesque performances (NOT ADVERTISED), and got immediately political which seemed to shock everyone because we all expected a magic show and our group and others included parents and adult children so a bit of an awkward vibe. Next they introduced a small musical act which was great, but again, not expected. Finally they did bring up a magician who did a great job, however we were disappointed because we expected it to be a full magic show. I hope in the future the description will be clearer when purchasing tickets so customers know what they're getting into.

I'm a little bit leary about spending $7 for a glass of wine or $22 for a bottle of wine that I have never tasted before, especially at a winery. To top it off, the comedy show was not funny, except for the girl. The guys flailed because they were not reading the room and not paying attention to the fact that it was mostly women. I again would highly encourage wine sampling at these events and better snacks. I dont want to have communal snacks, especially durning flu season. Glad this was a groupon night. It won't be a repeat in the near future.
