"Our wedding reception at Blanco was absolutely magical. We wanted something intimate where we could actually spend time with every guest and Blanco delivered exactly that. The chandeliers, the all-white space, the way our florals popped against the walls — it was perfect from start to finish."

Wedding Reception Venues in Columbus Ohio — Intimate, Elegant & Completely Yours

Not every couple wants a 300-person ballroom for their wedding reception.

Crystal chandeliers, white walls, and a 1,600 sq ft layout that fits up to 60 seated guests — the space feels like a styled wedding editorial before a single decoration goes up.

Everything a Full Reception Needs

Blanco accommodates every element of a wedding reception: head table, guest tables, dance floor, DJ or live music, bar setup, dessert table, and photo display.

Couples who want an intimate reception that feels truly personal — where they actually get to spend time with every guest — consistently choose Blanco over larger Columbus venues. Located in Northland at I-71 and I-270 with free on-site parking for all your guests.
