Insights About Bridgewater Weddings
Bridgewater is one of the areas largest privately owned venues in Central Ohio.
The ballroom is really quite beautiful so there isn’t a need to spent too much extra monies ‘to make it look nice’. That being said, if you have the room in the budget, decor lighting (especially on the pillars) looks great.
Don’t think that this venue is ONLY for larger receptions. The Veranda Ballroom can hold smaller weddings (about 120 guests) with a great overall look that Bridgewater is known for.
This venue is easy for your most of your guests to find since its just off Sawmill Road.

Insider Information About WatersEdge
They do have a lovely lakeside ceremony spot. But with I-270 right there, it can be very noisy, especially for since ceremonies tend to be quieter events. You should have microphones to make your vows heard. Most DJs can supply this for you, but we are not sure if the one that is supplied by the venue can.
The venue does supply a lot of the needed items for your special day. So it makes it easy to ‘check off multiple boxes’ like your wedding cake and entertainment. While this does tend to be a bit ‘cookie cutter’ it does make it easy. If you have a vendor that you really want to bring into this venue you are allowed to do with a very small credit applied to your balance.
The fireplace is the focal point of the room. It looks great if you add some decor lighting to it.
