The Blackwell Hotel Wedding

The Blackwell Hotel is the best place to hold an OSU wedding. The hotel sits right off of Tuttle Park Place and Woody Hayes Dr in the middle of campus. The patio is beautiful for weddings and portraits. The OSU football stadium is with in walking distance from the hotel so it is also great for OSU fans that would like their portraits outside The Shoe. The Oval is also just a short walk from the Blackwell if you are looking for campus portraits. I can't say enough that I really like this OSU wedding venue. The architecture and the staff are top notch.
