THE WHY BEHIND Hope's Way

Having been involved personally & professionally with events stressed under the pressure of limited timelines, often disproportionate for such momentous occasions, we believed something different was possible. So we (successfully!) created a wedding weekend opportunity with the ability to breathe deeply & enjoy at a more human-friendly pace. The Kind Words shared below testify to this.

And, celebrate even more meaningfully! Supporting orphan/foster care & anti-trafficking efforts, Hope's Way will make a donation in honor of your wedding to one of these organizations - your choice - Atlas Free, Back2Back Ministries, Both Hands, Psalm 82:3 Mission or Safe Families.

At Hope's Way, you'll relax in welcoming surroundings, come away with
cherished memories you'll remember a lifetime & a genuine feeling of
"That was so worth it!!"

“HOPE DOES NOT DISAPPoINT US, BECAUSE GOD’S LOVE HAS BEEN POURED INTO OUR HEARTS” Romans 5:5

Kind Words

After touring many venues in the Cincinnati area, Hope’s Way felt like coming home. The setting is serene…a sanctuary your guests won’t soon forget. Hope’s Way blends style & natural beauty into a place that feels grounded & authentic. They’ve perfected the art of gathering, the kind of space where you can leave all your troubles at the door & simply connect with the ones you love. The online system for communication & organization of wedding files helpful, & the venue prompt at replying to messages. For anyone wishing to host an intentional, unforgettable event…look no further. Thank you for everything, Hope’s Way Gathering. You will always have a special place in our hearts.

We felt at home all weekend. You sincerely made us feel like we were the only wedding at Hope’s Way this year – that is such a gift you have. The venue was gorgeous. We would highly recommend Hope’s Way to anyone. My mom said, “I just want to scream from the rooftops about that venue!” LOL. It was beautiful!

Our experience was nothing short of exceptional! We planned our wedding from out-of-state. Absolutely amazing throughout the entire planning process...from being available when our schedules allowed due to the time difference, answering any questions we had or managing my Type A personality - (Hope's Way) led with so much patience & grace. On our wedding day, we continued to receive rave reviews from guests about the beauty of the venue & overall experience! We created the most unforgettable memories there on our wedding day. Thank you Hope's Way, stay exceptional!

Josh and I are beyond thankful for the wedding day we had. The care Hope’s Way took meant so much. We were able to create an intentional day that celebrated beginning our new life together, and all our guests raved about the day. Thank you for pointing us to an amazing vendor team. I wish it wasn’t a destination wedding for us so we could host more events there! It was a breeze working with you.

Our wedding was a dream come true because of this place! The wooded property made for beautiful wedding photos. The barn was so nice and spacious for our reception. Everyone went on and on to us about how much they loved the venue we chose. Not only is the venue amazing, but the owners are intentional on making the whole experience a great one. We are so thankful to have stumbled upon this gem! Would highly recommend to anyone.

We had our wedding at Hope's Way…It was everything we could have dreamed of. Gayle was so helpful throughout the process and made us feel at ease. The venue is GORGEOUS. All of our guests are still complimenting us on how pretty the venue was. "The most aesthetically pleasing wedding we have ever attended" - One of the many compliments from our guests. The grounds are magical. You are surrounded by trees & a pond. You honestly could just use the décor provided & the venue would still be beautiful. I highly recommend Hope's Way!

As we began to plan our wedding, we never imagined having the opportunity to host such an intimate part of our lives on such beautiful grounds. We fell in love with the elegant rustic atmosphere and gorgeous views. From the moment we walked in the door, Gayle, and her husband Gary, have provided us with such a unique experience that has made us feel like friends rather than clients. I can feel the warm, romantic vibe in each detail chosen for every aspect of the venue.

We absolutely loved everything about hosting our wedding at Hope's Way Gathering Venue. The venue is beautiful, intimate, and peaceful. The staff is generous, kind, and goes above and beyond. We would recommend this venue to everyone!!

We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Nick & I weren’t originally going to have a traditional wedding - just go to a park one day & have dinner with our parents & siblings after. With more consideration, we changed our minds & SO glad we did. The day couldn’t have been more perfect. Can’t tell you enough how very special this day was for us & couldn’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else. We felt God’s presence that day. You & Hope’s Way will always carry a very special place in our hearts. Thank you for all that you do.

I don’t know where to begin. Our wedding was so magical. However, magical still doesn’t seem like a word worthy enough to describe it. One of the first things that drew us to Hope’s Way was the love felt upon entering the venue. That love was a feeling we wanted present on our wedding day. Thank you for being there every step of the way. We cannot express enough the mark Hope’s Way has forever left on our hearts.

It was such a beautiful experience. I’d replicate the day in a heartbeat! Hope’s Way and its people elevated the day so that love was tangible. It was a day like no other for us!

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible experience we had at Hope's Way. When our venue was impacted by a (post hurricane) storm & hosting at our farm was impossible, Gayle opened Hope's Way's doors to us in less than 24 hours of our event. The beauty of the venue is only matched by the warmth of their staff who went above & beyond to ensure we were acclimated to the new space. Completely switching venues in a short amount of time poses its challenges in general. However, I was surprised at how easily we settled in & that was thanks to HW's incredible organization, well planned gathering spaces & clear processes. Thank you, Hope's Way, for your kindness & support. We are truly blessed.

Our hearts are still full of love & happiness! It is rare for me to struggle to find the right words. But I can’t express enough how thankful I am. I know Rebecca will be grateful the rest of her life. Your gentle way of keeping R & R calm on a stormy day will forever be in my heart. God had his hand in all that transpired during the planning, praying & wedding day celebrations. I feel immensely blessed our paths crossed. Thank you for all you did for Rebecca & Ryan.

Can’t thank you enough for everything you’ve done for Jon and myself. You’ve been an amazing venue owner and all our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful Hope’s Way’s grounds are. Thank you for making our weekend so special.

It was the perfect celebration! Thank you so much for everything – with our meetings, emails, calls and all the behind the scenes work. We are so grateful. Thank you for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime.

Deciding to have our wedding at Hopes Way was the best decision we could have made. Working with Gayle was great. From the first time we toured the venue we knew Hopes Way would help create a memorable & special day while surrounded by our closest family & friends. We knew we would love working with Hope’s Way when told a portion of the money spent to rent the venue is donated on our behalf to a charitable organization. There were questions surrounding the weather. We had our guests come prepared with coats & blankets & provided hot chocolate & hot cider to enjoy. At the end of the day everyone did just fine being outside for 20 minutes, then moving indoors for the reception. The reception was a blast & the venue was perfect! Can't recommend Hopes Way enough.
