House of Blues Cleveland

When I started looking into reception locations, I didn’t even know the House of Blues was an option. I thought it could be an interesting venue and set up an appointment. Within the first ten minutes of the meeting with Rachel, I knew that HOB was the perfect location for our reception. Rachel was amazing to work with throughout the whole planning process. She was quick to respond to e-mails with all my questions and she made sure to keep the whole process moving along and keeping me on pace to get things done when they needed to happen. She also handled coordinating all the deliveries and set up with the various vendors we used for our music, photography, cake and flowers. When we did our final walk through the week before the reception, Rachel was so helpful in helping me nail down all the details and fully wrap my head around how everything was going to look. And on the day of the wedding, Rachel was there to make sure everything ran smoothly. She helped coordinate the timing on everything with the DJ and made sure we were where we needed to be at all the right times. She was so great and I wish I could work with her again sometime soon! With regard to HOB in general, I could not have been happier. The food was amazing – everyone I talked to said it was the best “reception food” they’d ever had. Everything was gorgeous – from the table set up to the lighting and candles. The on-site technicians handled designing and setting up all the lighting in a way that would coordinate with our colors and make the space look amazing. And really, you can’t go wrong with a head table on a stage where so many awesome bands and performers have appeared over the years! HOB provides an amazing and unique location for your reception and I would definitely recommend it.

While walking downtown one day, I noticed bride and groom names on the marquee of the House of Blues and thought "There's simply nowhere on Earth I'd rather get married". Chris and I love life, music and our family, so what better place to celebrate our day than on the Main Stage of the Music Hall surrounded by everyone we love? But, honestly, when I saw the wedding package, at first, being a new bride, my fiance and I wavered. But, as I started pricing venues, seeing how much everything would cost, it smacked me in the face that it was still the PERFECT (yes, all caps perfect) venue for us. I never shoot for anything in my life to be perfect... I shoot for interesting. I think interesting is WAY COOLER. But, my wedding at the House of Blues was the coolest and most awesome version of PERFECT that I've ever experienced. That ANYONE who was there ever experienced. Everyone there said it was far and away the BEST, most unique and awesomely rockin wedding they've ever had the pleasure of attending. The bartenders were knowledgable, accomodating and a ton of fun! The cocktail hour was elegant and delicious. The staff saw my vision, and worked their BUTTS off to make it happen. From the event coordinator, to the bridal liason, to the production staff, the wait staff and valet... it could not have gone better. The food? OMG... HEAVEN! And, the Pictures?! So many places just inside the venue... and then there's Fourth Street Right there!!! Seriously, it was a dream. From day one, working with Rachel Rosen, she made it her job to make our day awesome. They walked around with walkie-talkies making sure everyone was in the right places and making sure we made all our q's. Making sure I sat down to eat. Making sure I was in the cake cutting area on time. Making sure I always had a glass of wine in my hand. Making sure everything was taken care of so that my fiance and I could have the times of our lives... which is what it's all about, isn't it? We are exuberantly in love... and wanted everyone to feel that in the air on the day of our wedding. The air was full of love that day. Love... and music. What a PERFECTLY AMAZING way to start our life.

The Cambridge Room was gorgeous and perfect for our 70-80 people reception. Staff were incredible in helping plan and serving on the actual night. Not a detail missed!

Fabolous! All of the guests who attended said it was one of the most fantasic venues for weddings! So unique and everyone we worked with was so wonderful and accomadating!

HOB was an outstanding place to hold a rehearsal dinner. They were easy to work with and extremely helpful. The venue looked great for our event and the atmosphere was terrific. The food was delicious and commented on favorably by many guests. They provide mics and DVD players. The whole evening was so much fun at HOB that I wish I could do it all over again!

I held my wedding in the Cambridge Room, a smaller room next to the music hall that holds roughly 100 to 120 people. I was amazed at the turn around from regular room to ceremony and reception room. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and accommodating the entire planning process through the wedding. My venue contacts always replied to email and phone calls quickly as well. The food was delicious, too! The price per person sounds a little much at first but once you realize how much you are getting you realize it's worth it. I highly recommend this venue for your wedding or any event. So many of my guests left telling me it was the best wedding they've ever been to!

House of Blues Cleveland was perfect for our wedding. We had an intimate wedding of about 60 guests and only 3 months to plan. The sales manager, Mike, met with me right away and was very patient with us, answering all of our questions (I had a TON) and returning my calls and emails quickly. On our wedding day, we had an issue with the wedding cake not being delivered on time (from an outside bakery). Mike called me and told me not to worry and that he'd take care of everything. He called the bakery and had everything taken care of. By the time our guests had arrived at the reception, the cake was there and no one knew what had happened. Mike, Mel, and the staff were amazing! Our day went perfectly. I highly recommend House of Blues, they were one of my favorite vendors to work with! A++++

We had both our wedding and our reception at HOB. The staff at HOB was amazing! They worked with us and helped us put on a wedding that people are still talking about 8 months later. From the food, to the sound and lighting. It was like no other place we had seen. The food choices were endless, and we were even allowed to create a few dishes our selves. They were extremely flexible. If we could do it over again, there is no doubt it would be at HOB.

Don't feel that you have to go with just what they have outlined in their brochure. HOB was great about providing me with exactly the wedding and reception I had envisioned, even though it wasn't traditional and didn't fit into one of their packages. They made our day incredibly memorable, and our friends and family are STILL raving about our special day months and months later!

very professional and friendly staff, they really know what they are doing! everything went so smoothly thanks to laura and melanie.

We cannot say better things about our reception at the House of Blues Cleveland. When planning our Committment Ceremony, we waited over 2 years while searching for the unique location for our celebration. When we walked into House of Blues Cleveland and talked to their staff, we picked a date they had available and moved on with plans from there. The Cambridge Room was a great size and looked amazing for the occasion. Service, food, and planning from start to finish could not have been more enjoyable or professional. We hope we can plan our 25th Anniversary celebration at the House of Blues!
