It’s no secret that the French countryside has inspired elegant European wedding vibes in the United States. Not only have I found the perfect wedding venue for your romantic wedding, but I’ve also included a few staple tips to help you pull of the European vibes!
If you’re like me, you’ve probably dreamed your whole life of a beautiful European-inspired wedding… but you’re probably from Ohio, and your budget doesn’t cover plane tickets across the Atlantic Ocean.
Lucky for you, I’ve found the perfect elegant European-inspired wedding venue in Ohio, and it’s calling your name!
Welcome to Laurel Court in Cincinnati, Ohio
When I visited Laurel Court my jaw was to the floor the second I saw this beautiful estate. Built in 1902-1907, Laurel Court is an elegant European-inspired wedding venue in Hamilton County. The estate features a “grand staircase imported from Europe”, marble floors, a stunning music room, a beautiful atrium in the center of the home, and a gorgeous French garden.
