The Blackwell Inn

The Blackwell Inn, located on the campus of The Ohio State University, is the ideal venue for weddings, from intimate ceremonies to grand receptions.

Our Executive Chef, Ernesto Padilla, and his team create custom menus for all of our couples! Based on a questionnaire that incorporates fond childhood memories, favorite aromas, first date delicacies, and more. Each couple's menu is perfected during the complimentary tasting. From the hors d'oeuvres through the main entrees, you and your guests will enjoy an inspired, unforgettable meal that illustrates your love story.

Our ballroom and pavilion ceremony options provide a perfect backdrop, and we offer flexible reception set-up options in our Ballroom to match your wedding vision. We hope your guests will also stay in our recently renovated guestrooms to be just steps away from the celebration, and as the newlyweds, you'll receive a complimentary night in a suite on your wedding night. Our tiered wedding package options and many upgrade opportunities offer the customized experience that you deserve to ensure the day of your dreams!
