“If you yourself, as the bride or groom, aren’t in the wedding business, let your vendors do their jobs. If they tell you something isn’t going to work, it’s not going to work! If you have no idea how something should be set up, let the vendor decide. Letting your vendors do their thing makes for the most smooth day ever. I’ve gotten SO many compliments on the various aspects of my wedding from the flowers, to the food and venue, and my response is always the same, “I let my vendors do their jobs!”

“The Elliot is a wonderful place to host an event, in our case, the wedding of our daughter. Owner Stephanie Ridgely and event coordinator Katie Mang made sure they understood what we wanted and then made sure we understood what they could do (and not do) to make the bride's vision happen. Thanks to this thorough preparation, the events of the wedding day unfolded as expected, with glowing compliments from all our guests. Our daughter and her husband were delighted to have their ceremony in a setting that reflected their personalities.
If you are lucky enough to book the Elliot, you are in the hands of superb professionals. We can't thank them enough!”

“Had our wedding here a few weeks ago. First place we looked at and fell in love immediately. Every bit as beautiful as the photos make it out to be. On top of that, amazing people to work with. Coordinated with all vendors seamlessly. Didn't think it was possible, but the process couldn't have been less stressful. And the wedding went off without a hitch. Huge kudos to Katie Mang who coordinated everything. Incredibly kind, empathetic, and patient. Thanks again for a wonderful experience."

“We chose to have our daughter's wedding at the Elliot because of the professionalism encountered on our first meeting. Stephanie Ridgely, owner of the Elliot was gracious and capable. On our tour she explained the history of the building and how she and her husband transformed it into the beautiful venue that it is. Since our daughter lives in Seattle and the wedding was here in CLE, Stephanie and Katie Mang (wedding coordinator) made the process of creating a wonderful experience for all involved as smooth as possible. The multitude of compliments from family and friends are a direct result of their excellence!”

“I held my wedding at The Elliot on 12/30/2023. If you are looking for an elegant wedding venue with a top-notch team, look no further. The Elliot is a breathtaking space that features a huge crystal chandelier, a beautiful stained glass window, and the coziest speakeasy bar in the basement. We were able to keep our decor pretty simple because the space shines on its own. We held our ceremony in the main space then our guests went to the basement bar for cocktail hour all while The Elliot and catering staff flipped the main space into the reception. It created a great guest experience having everything under one roof, especially since our wedding was in December. The staff are beyond excellent as well. Katie was our day-of coordinator but she went above and beyond in her role. She was extremely responsive, thoughtful, capable, and overall pleasant to work with. She kept the day organized and moving along appropriately. I do not have enough good things to say about her! I seriously cannot recommend The Elliot enough. It was the wedding venue of my dreams!!”
