Cincinnati Wedding Locations

It is difficult to list all of the beautiful locations for weddings in Cincinnati, there are so many, and it is definitely impossible to bame the best. But we have done the homework for you, and have scouted out a large number of locations that are definitely "heads above the rest." Included are some spectacular outdoor locations. Remember — if you live in Kentucky and get married in Ohio, you need an Ohio marriage license from the county where the ceremony takes place.

Indoor Sites: There are too many beautiful churches and cathedrals to list here, so only the most interesting and dramatic private halls will be listed. The following were selected out of over 250 possibilities on the basis of photographic possibilities (high, natural ceilings are a must), architectural splendor, old world charm, and services offered to the bride.

Outdoor Sites: June, July, and August in Cincinnati are not only too hot for outdoor weddings but also have the most rainfall. The best months are May, end of June, September, and October. Historically, October is the driest month, but it can also get a bit chilly. Never, ever plan an outdoor wedding without a tent (try Advantage Tent Rental at 513.887.7779). Remember the old saying: "If you don't like the weather in Cincinnati, wait five minutes."
