Wildflower Woods Wedding Venue Information Central Ohio

All About Wildflower Woods

Wildflower Woods, an outdoor wedding and reception venue in Fredericktown, Ohio is a classy place for an outsid. wedding. Located 90 minutes south of Cleveland and 60 minutes north of Columbus, it is easily accessible to a large section of Ohio’s population. Purpose built on a former Christmas tree farm, this secluded and picturesque wedding facility is great for small outdoor weddings.

The Wedding Ceremony Area

Up a well-manicured grass path is a grassy area surrounded by large trees. The venue staff setup nice folding chairs for each event and some type of pergola for ceremony centerpiece. For this wedding, there were two sets of 6 rows each, one set for each bride. Seating faces the easy, so the sun should not be in the guests’ eyes. On the day of my first wedding there, it was one of the hottest days of the year. And of course, no wind anywhere. One of the best wedding photo spots I have ever seen, just below this paragraph, is the top of the path leading to the ceremony. I love the numerous layers of grass, bushes, and trees. So much depth is present and beautiful.

The Wedding Reception Dinner Area

Down the hill from Wildflower Woods’ ceremony area is a two-park reception area. First is the dinner area, located inside perfectly aligned rows and columns of really tall evergreen Christmas trees. Two long tables were set between the trees, with candles (lights), and perfectly-curated table scapes. It looked like Sandra Lee meets Twighlight (movie). If there was fog and rain, you could really think you were in the ficticious village of Forks. When I had first met the couple, I told them about the Twilight vibe I was getting.

The dinner tables were long with seating for everyone. At the far north of the tables was the table for both brides. They had large thrones to sit in. For dinner, a mobile wood-fired pizza oven catered the event. It was the first time I’ve every seen one at a wedding.

The Wedding Reception Dancing Area

The large, permanent tent, a visual fixture at the center of Wildflower Woods, sat just south of the Christmas tree seating area, and was plenty big for the number of guests. There was room enough for the bar, a cake cable, and the dinner pizza buffet. The couple also opted to have a vintage couch brought in for photos and seating. Because it was so hot, the venue provided large industrial fans to try to cool everyone. There is nowhere except the ground-level getting ready room with any air conditioning. On my few short breaks, I blasted the A/C in my car.

The Amentities At Wildflower Woods

There are a few real restrooms at Wildflower Woods. A storage building also has invidual retrooms built into the east side of it. There is no fan and no air conditioning. They get hot!

The only other facility on the property is the owner’s daugher’s house which doubles as a medium size getting ready suite. There is a lighted vanity and area to get dressed, all behind a curtain. On the other side of the curtain is the living room of the house with a small table and couch. The day I was there, only the two brides were getting ready, and it was comfortable. On hot days with hair sylists and makeup artists, this could get cramped a warm.

Wildflower Woods, a central Ohio wedding and reception venue is a great choice for wedding couples with guests in both Columbus and Cleveland.
