Where Are We?
The Seventy Five is located one mile off of U.S. Route 33 in the beautiful Hocking Hills area. Sitting between Lancaster and Logan, we are 45 minutes Southeast of Columbus, Ohio, with easy access to accommodations for you and your guests.
-
How Do I Book?
Booking your date at The Seventy Five is simple. We’ll just need a few quick details from you and your partner, including your full names, phone numbers, emails, and the date you’d like to celebrate. Once we have that information, our team will send over your contract, collect signatures, and secure your date with the first deposit (three total). From there, you’ll get access to your personal client portal where everything lives in one happy place: messages, documents, payments, and planning details. It keeps the process easy, organized, and fun!
-
What's Included?
Once you fill out our contact form, you’ll receive an email with a link that outlines everything included in our packages, along with full pricing details. Some of the standout perks of The Seventy Five include an all-day (12+ hour) venue rental, private getting-ready suites, an indoor ceremony space that doesn’t sacrifice the view, on-site lodging options, and plenty more thoughtful touches to make your day unforgettable.
-
How far in Advance Should I Book?
The sky’s the limit when it comes to booking your date at The Seventy Five. Most of our couples reserve their spot about a year in advance, but we’re happy to book as far out as 2028 if you’re a planner at heart. On the flip side, if you’re working on a tighter timeline, we can often accommodate events booked as little as four weeks out. Just keep in mind that while we can move quickly on our end, many vendors like caterers, florists, and DJs appreciate a bit more notice to make sure your day runs perfectly.
-
Is There Lodging Available?
Glad you asked! Before The Seventy Five came to life, there was The Box Hop, our collection of six uniquely designed shipping container cabins that can host up to 48 guests. Three of the cabins share the same driveway as The Seventy Five, and the other three are just a short drive down the road. As a Seventy Five couple, you and your guests receive priority booking and an exclusive discount code as our little thank you. For additional lodging, we also partner with great hotel options in both Logan and Lancaster.
-
Is the Venue Accessible for All Guests?
We’ve made sure everyone can enjoy the space comfortably. Our main parking lot has a couple of front-row spots right next to a paved ramp that leads up to the ceremony area, and there’s another parking lot behind the building with easy access to the main entrances. If anyone needs a lift, our team runs a six-seater golf cart during events to help guests get around. Inside, you’ll also find a fully ADA-compliant restroom so everyone can relax and enjoy the celebration without a worry.
-
What about Parking and Transportation?
The Seventy Five has two parking lots to make things simple for you and your guests. The main lot is for general guest parking, and the second lot behind the building is reserved for vendors, anyone who needs accessibility assistance, and our staff. For transportation, we work with two trusted shuttle services that can pick up guests directly from the hotel blocks we partner with, as well as from all six Box Hop cabins.
-
Can I Bring My Pet to the Venue?
We’re big fans of our four-legged guests and love when they are a part of the celebration! They’re welcome to join you for 30 minutes before the ceremony, during the ceremony, and 30 minutes afterward for photos and snuggles. If you’re not hosting a ceremony at The Seventy Five, your pet(s) can still come for pictures for up to an hour before heading home for a well-deserved nap.
-
Am I Required to Use Your Vendors?
After you book, we’ll share a curated list of our favorite vendors to make planning simple and stress-free. The only vendors required to be chosen from our list are caterers and bartenders. We work exclusively with six approved caterers that we’ve hand-selected to keep your day running seamlessly. Each one offers flexible menus, dinner styles, and staff who truly go above and beyond. Our bar is fully BYO, so you can bring in all your favorite drinks, and our approved bartenders will handle the rest.
Our Caterers: Cameron Mitchell, Together & Co., The Berwick, Emelio’s, L.A. Catering, Hudson’s Edge
-
What are the Setup & Tear Down Responsibilities?
With help from the catering staff, The Seventy Five team takes care of setting up all venue-owned items, including tables, chairs, linens, place settings, and any décor that belongs to the venue. At the end of the night, anything we set up, we’ll also tear down. To make things even easier, our team will gather your table décor in one place for simple packing. And if you’d rather not lift a finger, we offer optional add-on team members who can handle all of your personal décor cleanup, too.
-
Can I Bring My Own Décor?
Absolutely! Our space is yours, and we love seeing it come to life in all kinds of styles and aesthetics. We have plenty of décor items available for you to use, included in your rental package, but you’re always welcome to bring in anything that helps make the space feel like your own. For larger items, we’ll help coordinate an easy drop-off and pick-up time to keep everything running smoothly.
-
Can I Use Candles and Open Flames?
We have fully dimmable lighting throughout the venue to help you set the perfect mood. Smokeless candles and open flames are welcome as long as they’re enclosed in something protective like a hurricane vase, lantern, or glass holder. Sparklers and small pyrotechnics are also allowed with prior approval from our venue manager to keep everything safe and glowing in all the right ways.
-
What Happens if there is Bad Weather
Remember those floor-to-ceiling windows? There’s your rain plan! If the weather doesn’t cooperate, The Seventy Five staff and your caterer will help rearrange the reception hall into a beautiful ceremony setup. We’ll bring any décor pieces inside and stage them in front of the windows so you’ll still have that stunning view of the rolling hills, just without the umbrellas.
-
Is Smoking Allowed?
The Seventy Five is a non-smoking facility, but there is a designated smoking area behind the building to keep things comfortable for all guests. Smoking indoors is not permitted at any time. For anyone who enjoys a good cigar, we offer a Cigar Pop-Up Bar add-on that can be set up on the outdoor ceremony pad to give you that laid-back, Club Royale vibe.
-
Can I Book a Micro-Wedding/Elopement?
We’d be honored! Our micro-wedding packages are designed for celebrations of up to 50 guests and include most of the same features as our full-size wedding packages, just with a few thoughtful adjustments. If you’re planning something more intimate or an elopement-style day, reach out to us for more details. We’d love to help you find the perfect fit.
-
Do you Host Special Events?
Definitely! Whether you’re planning a birthday bash, baby shower, wedding shower, rehearsal dinner, or a “just because a little party never killed nobody” kind of night, we’re here for it. Reach out to our venue manager for details on package options, inclusions, and pricing for your special event.
-
What Planning/Coordination do you Provide?
We’ve got you covered. Once your date is secured, you’ll be paired with one of our two lead coordinators, who together bring more than 20 years of wedding planning experience to the table. Throughout the process, they’ll host three planning meetings with you and your fiancé to sort through details, answer questions, and make sure every part of your day feels personal and stress-free. We’re also just a message away whenever inspiration strikes or you need a quick recommendation to help bring your vision to life.
-
Why Choose The Seventy Five?
At The Seventy Five, we believe your wedding should be more than a single day. It’s the laughter in the planning, the quiet moments before the aisle, and the joy that lingers long after the night ends. We created this space for couples who want something that feels deeply personal, where every detail reflects their story. It’s not just where you get married, it’s where your forever begins.
