If your wedding guest list is on the larger side — or if you want the flexibility to accommodate almost any size celebration in one location — the Hilton Columbus At Easton belongs at the top of your list. With four distinct ballrooms, 39,000 square feet of event space, and a location steps from Easton Town Center, this is one of the most versatile and complete wedding venues in Central Ohio. It's also simply one of the nicest hotels in Columbus, which matters a great deal when your out-of-town guests are spending the weekend.
Wedding Receptions At The Hilton Columbus At Easton
The Hilton Columbus At Easton is a seven-story, 345-room upscale hotel featuring a Georgian Revival-style brick exterior with a grand cupola — a stately manor aesthetic that makes an immediate impression on guests arriving for your wedding. The hotel was fully redesigned in 2017, and the renovation touched everything from the guest rooms to the event spaces, resulting in some of the most beautifully appointed ballrooms in the Columbus area.
What makes this venue genuinely special for weddings is the range of room options. Whether you're planning an intimate celebration of 80 or a grand reception of 800, there's a space here that fits without the room feeling either cramped or empty:
The Easton Grand Ballroom — the largest space in the venue and one of the largest wedding reception rooms in all of Central Ohio, accommodating up to 800 guests
The Regent Ballroom — holds up to 300 guests for a seated reception and divides into three smaller spaces, making it ideal for a ceremony in one section and cocktail hour in another
The Juniper Room — a mid-size space seating up to 130 guests, perfect for more intimate receptions with an upscale feel
The Columbus Room — the newest addition, flooded with natural light, seating up to 80 guests for a reception or 125 for a ceremony-style setup
Beyond the four main ballrooms, there are also over 8,000 square feet of additional foyer and pre-function space available for cocktail hours, post-wedding gatherings, or overflow — giving your event genuine room to breathe.
Wedding Ceremonies At The Hilton Columbus At Easton
The variety of ballroom sizes at the Hilton Easton gives you real flexibility for your ceremony setup. The most common approach is to hold the ceremony in the same ballroom as the reception — typically in a theater-style configuration at one end of the room. Guests then move into the expansive foyer areas for cocktail hour while the hotel staff performs the room flip, before everyone returns to the fully reset reception setup.
For couples wanting to separate the two spaces entirely, the Regent Ballroom's ability to divide into three sections makes it particularly well-suited — you can hold an intimate ceremony in one portion while the reception is being set in another, without the two ever overlapping.
The hotel staff at the Hilton Easton is experienced at managing these transitions smoothly, and it shows. The room flip process is one of those things that can cause stress at less experienced venues — here it's routine.
Wedding Pictures At The Hilton Columbus At Easton
The Hilton Easton gives your photographer a strong variety of settings in a compact area.
Inside, the hotel's grand Roman pillars in the main entrance are one of the most dramatic interior photo backdrops of any Columbus hotel venue — you can see them in the hero image at the top of this page. The renovated hallways leading to the ballrooms have excellent natural light from large windows, making them a favorite for bridal party portraits before the ceremony begins.
Outside, the Easton Town Center is steps from the hotel entrance. The fountains, plaza architecture, and landscaped common areas give your photographer a range of urban and outdoor backdrop options within a two-minute walk. For couples who met at Easton, or who just love the area, this proximity is a genuine bonus.
Insider Tips For Your Hilton Easton Wedding
A few things worth knowing before you visit or book:
Don't let the size intimidate you. This is probably the most common misconception about the Hilton Easton. The Juniper Room and the Columbus Room are designed specifically for smaller, more intimate receptions — and they feel appropriately scaled, not like a vast ballroom with too few guests. If your guest count is under 150, one of these rooms may be a better fit than the Grand Ballroom.
The staff tenure matters. The Hilton Easton team has an unusually long average tenure compared to other hotel venues in Columbus. That institutional knowledge shows in how smoothly events run — vendors who work here regularly note that the staff is exceptionally organized and proactive.
The hotel room situation is a genuine advantage. With 345 rooms recently renovated to a high standard, you can comfortably block a meaningful number of rooms for out-of-town guests without worrying about quality or availability.
Easton Town Center is your after-party. Restaurants, bars, and entertainment are all within walking distance of the hotel. Guests who want to continue the evening after the reception ends have excellent options without needing to drive anywhere.
The venue is located at 3900 Chagrin Drive near the I-270 and I-670 interchange, which makes it one of the most accessible hotel wedding venues in the Columbus area for guests coming from any direction.

Medallion Club
A 7,500 sq ft ballroom for up to 400 guests in Westerville, with a center dance floor, golf cart photo tours, and one wedding at a time policy
Weddings At The
Medallion Club
By DJ Rod of Buckeye Sounds | Columbus Wedding DJ & Founder of WedVenColumbus
If you're looking for a golf club wedding venue in the Columbus area that genuinely has it all — a beautiful ballroom, stunning outdoor ceremony space, and some of the most scenic photo opportunities in Central Ohio — The Medallion Club in Westerville deserves a serious look. Set on a lush, meticulously maintained golf course dotted with fountains and lakes, this venue strikes a perfect balance between natural beauty and elegant event space.

Medallion Club Wedding Receptions
The Medallion Club's ballroom is one of the most versatile in the Westerville area. At 7,500 square feet it can comfortably seat up to 400 guests, but it divides easily if your guest list is smaller — so the room always feels appropriately sized rather than empty or cramped. That's a detail a lot of couples don't think about until they're standing in a half-filled ballroom.
The center dance floor is a real advantage here. Having the dance floor in the middle of the room creates a natural focal point for the whole reception — your guests surround it from all sides, which means more energy on the floor and a better party atmosphere all night long.
One detail that makes the Medallion Club stand out among golf club venues: they only book one wedding at a time. That means the entire staff, the entire facility, and all of their attention is focused exclusively on your wedding. You're not sharing the venue — or their focus — with another couple.
Wedding Ceremonies At The Medallion Club
You have two genuinely excellent ceremony options here, and both are worth considering.
The outdoor ceremony space is on the side the ballroom is the more popular choice, and it's easy to see why. The backdrop is the golf course — rolling green fairways, mature trees, and water features that look like they were designed specifically for wedding photography. The space feels private and peaceful, even though your guests transition easily from cocktail area to ceremony site to reception without any logistical headaches.
If the weather doesn't cooperate, or if you simply prefer an indoor ceremony, the ballroom itself works beautifully for ceremonies as well. After the ceremony concludes, guests move to the lobby area for cocktails and appetizers while the staff resets the room for your reception. The flow is seamless and the staff handles the transition smoothly.
Wedding Pictures At The Medallion Club
The Medallion Club gives your photographer a lot to work with. The combination of manicured greens, fountains, ponds, and wooded areas means you can get a wide variety of shots without ever leaving the property.
The bridge over the pond is consistently one of the most popular photo spots — the reflections and framing make for dramatic, memorable images. The veranda overlooking the golf course is another favorite, especially for wedding party shots at golden hour.
One of the more fun perks: the club allows your wedding party to take golf carts out on the course for photos. It adds a fun, relaxed energy to the photo session that your bridal party will enjoy, and the candid shots you get between posed portraits are often the ones couples treasure most.
Don't overlook the ballroom itself for photos either — the warm lighting and spacious layout make it a great backdrop before guests arrive.
Insight Wedding Information About At The Medallion Club
The Medallion Club's ballroom is clean and well-appointed enough that you don't need to over-decorate to make it look beautiful. The room does a lot of the work on its own.
A few things worth knowing going in:
Tall floral centerpieces work particularly well given the ceiling height — they fill the vertical space elegantly without overwhelming the tables.
The center dance floor placement is a genuine advantage. Unlike venues where the dance floor is pushed to a wall or corner, being in the center of the room keeps energy high from all sides.
If you're considering décor uplighting, this room responds well to it. The right color wash on the walls can completely transform the feel of the space to match your wedding palette.
Free, plentiful parking is something guests always appreciate — especially the ones driving in from out of town. No valet, no parking garage fees, no stress.
The Medallion Club is located in Westerville, which puts it in a convenient northeast Columbus location — easy to reach from I-270, and close to hotel options for out-of-town guests.
Medallion Club Westerville Wedding FAQ
How many guests can the Medallion Club accommodate for a wedding? The Medallion Club can seat up to 400 guests in its 7,500 square foot ballroom. The space can also be divided for smaller weddings, ensuring the room always feels full and festive.
Can you have a ceremony and reception at the Medallion Club? Yes. The Medallion Club offers both indoor and outdoor ceremony options. The outdoor garden space overlooking the golf course is especially popular, with easy flow to the cocktail hour and reception ballroom.
Does the Medallion Club allow outside caterers? No, catering is provided in-house by the club. However, they do allow couples to bring their own wedding cake and will serve it at no extra charge.
Is there parking at the Medallion Club for wedding guests? Yes — there is free, plentiful parking on site. No valet fees or parking garage hassles for your guests.
Does the Medallion Club host multiple weddings on the same day? No. The Medallion Club books only one wedding at a time, meaning their entire staff and facility are dedicated exclusively to your event.

The Exchange Wedding Receptions
The Exchange is one of the larger wedding reception spaces in the Columbus area, accommodating up to 500 guests for a seated dinner — which puts it in rare company among Central Ohio venues that can handle truly large wedding receptions without feeling like a convention center.
The interior is contemporary and genuinely striking: hardwood floors, raw stone wall details, floor-to-ceiling windows, and modern chandeliers create a warm, upscale atmosphere that works beautifully both for large celebrations and for smaller, more intimate gatherings. The neutral color palette and open layout function as an excellent blank canvas — couples consistently note how easily the space transforms to match their vision, whether that's a formal black-tie reception or a relaxed, personalized celebration.
The outdoor patio is one of the Exchange's most loved features. Strung with hanging Edison lights and overlooking the Bridge Park neighborhood and Scioto River valley, it's a natural gathering spot for cocktail hour, outdoor ceremony setup, or an after-dinner escape for guests who want fresh air. On a warm evening, it's exceptional.
The AC Hotel by Marriott Columbus Dublin is directly next door — which means your out-of-town guests have premium accommodation within steps of the venue. This is a genuinely significant convenience that takes logistical pressure off your planning.
Preferred Wedding Vendors At The Exchange
Wedding Ceremonies At The Exchange
The Exchange offers two solid ceremony options depending on your preference and the weather.
The outdoor patio is the more popular choice and delivers a beautiful setting with the Bridge Park neighborhood architecture, the Scioto River valley views, and the warm glow of the hanging lights above. The ceremony setup flows naturally into cocktail hour on the same patio, while the ballroom is prepared for the reception — making the guest experience seamless and unhurried.
If you prefer an indoor ceremony or if the weather doesn't cooperate, the ballroom itself provides a clean, elegant backdrop. After the ceremony, guests move to the large foyer for cocktail hour — a spacious and well-designed transitional space that doesn't feel like a holding area, but a genuine part of the celebration.

The Exchange gives your photographer a strong variety of settings, and the Bridge Park neighborhood itself extends the options significantly.
Inside, the hardwood floors, raw stone walls, and floor-to-ceiling windows create a modern industrial aesthetic that photographs beautifully — warm, textured, and distinctive. The patio lighting in the evening creates a particularly romantic atmosphere for couple portraits.
Outside, Bridge Park Dublin is one of the most photogenic neighborhoods in the Columbus area. The pedestrian bridge over the Scioto River is a perennial favorite backdrop. The surrounding architecture — a mix of modern residential, retail, and hospitality buildings — provides clean, contemporary framing. Multiple photographers who've shot here note that you can easily get a full range of portrait styles — urban, waterfront, architectural, and green space — all within a few minutes' walk of the venue.
The AC Hotel lobby and common areas next door are also worth mentioning — the hotel's design-forward interior has been used by multiple photographers for creative indoor portraits, particularly in cold or rainy weather.
Insider Tips For Your Exchange At Bridge Park Wedding
A few things worth knowing:
Cameron Mitchell's food and service reputation is real. Multiple reviewers specifically mention the food as a highlight of the evening — this is a genuine differentiator compared to venues that rely on external caterers with variable quality.
The foyer is large enough for a full cocktail hour and doesn't feel like a waiting area. If your guest count or weather makes the patio impractical, the foyer cocktail hour still works well.
The Bridge Park area is excellent for after-party options. Pins Mechanical Co. is about a block away and is a perennial favorite. Multiple bars and restaurants are walkable for guests who want to continue the celebration after the reception ends.
The AC Hotel next door takes pressure off your out-of-town guest hotel coordination. Suggest it early in your planning process — it books up quickly for popular wedding dates.

New Albany Links Wedding Receptions
The centerpiece of a New Albany Links wedding is the large reception tent, and it's worth understanding what makes it different from what most people picture when they hear "tent wedding."
This isn't a temporary structure thrown up for your event. It's a permanent, beautifully appointed tent venue with full lighting, a dance floor, and elegant finishing details that make it feel as polished as any indoor ballroom — while still delivering the open-air feel that draws couples to this venue in the first place. On a warm summer evening with the lights strung overhead and the golf course visible beyond the edges, it's a genuinely magical setting.
For smaller receptions up to 125 guests, the indoor clubhouse provides a comfortable, traditional country club atmosphere. For larger events up to 300 guests, the tent is the main event. The two options give New Albany Links a flexibility that many golf course venues lack.
The venue is located in New Albany — one of the most upscale and scenic communities in Central Ohio — which means your guests are arriving in a setting that already feels like a special occasion before they even walk in.
Preferred Wedding Vendors At The New Albany Links
Wedding Ceremonies At The New Albany Links
The ceremony patio behind the clubhouse is the most popular choice, and it's a strong one. The space offers the privacy of a secluded outdoor setting while keeping logistics simple for guests — they can enjoy a pre-ceremony drink, take a short walk to the ceremony patio, and then transition directly into the cocktail hour before moving to the tent for the reception. The entire flow of the day feels natural and unhurried.
The ceremony area also benefits from the natural beauty of the golf course surroundings — mature trees, open fairways, and the kind of landscaping that photographs beautifully in any season. Your officiant won't be competing with the backdrop.
If weather becomes a factor, the tent's side panels work effectively to keep out rain and wind, which means your rain plan does not require a complete venue pivot.
Wedding Pictures At The New Albany Links
New Albany Links is a photographer's favorite for outdoor wedding photography, and it's not hard to see why. The golf course fairways, natural light, and open landscape provide a clean, uncluttered backdrop that lets the couple be the focus of every shot.
The ceremony patio area works well for both formal portraits and candid ceremony shots. The tent itself, once lit up for the reception, creates a warm and dramatic evening photography setting — especially for first dance and reception coverage.
The New Albany area itself is also worth noting for photography. The community is beautifully maintained, and if your photographer wants to venture just slightly off the property for engagement-style shots before the reception begins, the surroundings are ideal.
Don't overlook the transition moments either — guests walking from ceremony to cocktail hour, the wedding party stepping out of the clubhouse, the first look at the lit tent as evening falls. These are the shots that end up in the frame on the wall.

Inside Advice About At The New Albany Links
A few practical things worth knowing before your wedding day:
The tent sides work well in rain, but ask the venue to have them secured before guests arrive if the forecast looks uncertain. Better to have them closed and open them if the weather clears than to scramble mid-event.
Temperature matters for tent events. Even in summer, Ohio evenings can cool down after 9 PM. Ask the venue to turn on the tent heaters early — at least an hour before guests move into that space — so the temperature is comfortable when they arrive rather than playing catch-up.
New Albany is close to Easton Town Center, which means there are strong hotel options for out-of-town guests within a very short drive. This makes the logistics of a destination-style wedding significantly easier.
The free parking on site is a genuine guest experience win — especially for larger weddings where parking logistics can become a headache at other venues.
If you're doing a summer or early fall wedding, the tent's open sides at sunset create a beautiful golden-hour lighting effect that happens naturally around cocktail hour. Worth timing your photography around if possible.
