While looking for wedding venues, Gervasi was on the top of my husband’s list. Following our initial tour, I had also fallen in love. There are so many stunning locations for pictures, which was a huge draw for me. Also, the ability to have our entire wedding day centered around one location, the Villa Grande, and not having to worry about transportation for our guests, was another huge piece that led to our decision to choose Gervasi. We attended a tasting prior to the wedding, that was very well done, and we felt confident in not only our menu, but our day of rentals by the end of it. We also met our coordinator, Kelsey, that day. She was amazing to work with from start to finish. She kept in contact with us throughout the process and ensured that every detail we wanted came to life! Our wedding day was the best day of our lives and in large part due to choosing Gervasi as our venue. We would highly recommend this location for anyone looking for a wedding venue.

My husband and I chose Gervasi for our wedding venue, and we could not be happier. Our wedding was perfect! We had our ceremony right outside the Villa Grande, and the reception was just feet away inside the Ballaria Sophia. Our guests loved the venue, and so did we! Kelsey, our event coordinator, made the planning so easy for us. She was great to work with, and we highly recommend her to other couples that are considering Gervasi! Thank you Kelsey for being so kind and patient with my husband and I!

Gervasi Vineyard was an awesome venue for our wedding. We booked the Villa Grande, had our ceremony outside, and reception inside of the balleria sophia. Coordinators and staff were very helpful and we loved all of the photo locations at Gervasi. Highly recommended!

Accommodations were upscale and convenient as we had rented a Villa across from our venue. Staff was accommodating and attentive. Food and beverage was perfect selections were perfect and delicious! You don’t need to spend a lot on décor as the space is beautiful. Save yourself money by having the essentials and a great photographer as the grounds are gorgeous as well.

Everything was fantastic! Working with Kristine was an absolute dream. She made the entire planning experience enjoyable and easy. From day one of touring the grounds to the day of the wedding, everything in between went well even during a pandemic. Every staff member was very accommodating and super helpful. The food was delicious and you get to sample everything during a tasting event for you and 5 of your closest friends/family. 10/10 Highly recommend!

Like most couples who were planning a wedding in the last year, we had to move our wedding date not once, but twice. Our original venue was far less accommodating than we could have imagined and we knew it was in our best interest to seek out somewhere new. It just so happened that Gervasi had ONE remaining Friday open up in our desired timeframe and so we jumped on it. From the very get go of us planning things there, our coordinator, Brittany Steger, was amazing. She was with us every step of the planning process and was sure to answer each and every question we had. We got to experience an AMAZING tasting and honestly, that was one of the best parts of working with Gervasi. The food was exceptional and the staff was so friendly. Every little detail down to the flowers outside in the courtyard was perfect on our wedding day. We had a ceremony outside of the Veranda with the reception in the ballroom. It was a beautiful day and I felt every bit like a princess while constantly being checked on by Brit and her amazing team. I know wedding season has been extremely busy this summer with a lot of make-up dates from Covid weddings (us included) and Brittany, I know was extremely busy but still managed to make us feel like a top priority. I wish I could relive our magical day over and over again and I owe a lot of it to Gervasi, Brittany, and the rest of the amazing staff. To anyone considering Gervasi, I highly recommend!!

This is such a gorgeous venue!! I had my ceremony and reception here and I would do it again 1,000 times over. It is absolutely beautiful, and I got a million compliments all night. Kendyll, my wedding coordinator, could have not been any more helpful. She answered my questions quickly, helped me stay organized and literally made my day PERFECT! I can not recommend this venue enough.

We were so thrilled with our wedding at Gervasi this summer! The venue is gorgeous. We had both our ceremony and reception there. The staff were wonderful to work with, especially Kendyll who was so helpful throughout the entire planning process! We had a fantastic time and so did our guests. We’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a venue.

Gervasi is one of the most beautiful places we have ever been. Our wedding was breathtaking, and we did not have to do much extra to make it that way. Guests who had never been to Gervasi were raving about how beautiful it is. It is also priced similar to other venues in Northeast Ohio. We had both of our weddings there. The first was in the conservatory (COVID wedding) and our big wedding was in the Pavilion. We can’t recommend this venue enough.

We could not have been happier with our experience at Gervasi Vineyard! We were married in June 2021 in the Pavilion after having postponed our original date from 2020. From the first time we saw Gervasi Vineyard, we were in awe. The facilities are gorgeous. The property is like a campus with a few nice restaurants, lodging, a shop, and event spaces. Everything is designed to feel like Tuscany, and the grounds and landscaping are always well manicured. It felt like the destination wedding experience we wanted without having to travel far away. The cost and contractual details were clearly communicated from the start, which we appreciated. We were provided with a Gervasi event coordinator, who helped us organize the event details, like food and drink choices, layouts, and schedule. After a couple of switches because of our postponement, we had a wonderful coordinator, Kristine. She was extremely organized, quick to communicate, and patient with my many questions and ideas. We exchanged countless emails prior to the day of. She even helped us make last minute changes because of the dynamic COVID restrictions. For the wedding weekend, we loved utilizing all the places on site. We stayed in one of the villas. They are each stunning on the inside and have gorgeous views of the pond from the patio. We had a great time having our hair and makeup done right on the property on the morning of the wedding. It was also wonderful to walk right over to our villa after the long, exhausting day was over. In addition to the wedding, we also had our rehearsal dinner in another of Gervasi’s event spaces, and we were able to customize our meal from their menu. The groomsmen hung out at their coffee and cocktail lounge on the afternoon of the wedding as well. On the day of the wedding, Kristine and the rest of Gervasi’s staff really blew us away. Kristine was able to help organize our vendors and make sure the decor was executed properly. She timed everyone going down the aisle at the right time, and fluffed my dress before I walked down with my dad. She managed to keep us in the loop regarding the timeline without making us feel rushed. She managed a small issue with the shuttle parking with just a brief mention from me. The waitstaff and bartenders were friendly and professional. They really thought of every detail to make the day perfect! For example, they saved appetizers from cocktail hour for the bridal party, as they were occupied with photos when they were served. They also saved a signature cocktail each for myself and the groom. It was so thoughtful and a wonderful surprise. The food was delicious! We had a choice of short ribs or salmon and everyone was impressed with the quality of each entree. They packaged up leftover late night pizza and desserts in boxes for us at the end of the night to take home – including mine and the groom’s meals that we didn’t have time to finish. It is worth mentioning, this is not a cheap wedding venue. But if you are able to swing the money side of things, and you want to throw an impressive, unforgettable wedding, we can’t recommend this place enough. We received countless compliments from our guests on the beauty of the property, how the event ran so smoothly, and the quality of the food. Trust that this team and venue absolutely knows what they are doing. We will treasure the memories of our perfect day here forever! Thank you, Kristine, and thank you to the rest of Gervasi’s fabulous team!

Planning a wedding at Gervasi was a seamless endeavor. The staff at Gervasi was constantly present and dedicated to making our special day everything we dreamed of. Our questions were answered with impeccable timing and consideration. The staff worked with outstanding efficiency and catered to our every need. Our guests were absolutely amazed at the beauty of the grounds, the delicious food and the friendly staff. Comments included “Who knew this beautiful place was in Canton, Ohio?” Our out -of-town guests plan to revisit Gervasi. Of course we will continue to visit on a regular basis! Visiting Gervasi is an absolute must!!

My husband and I were married on June 5th in the Pavilion at Gervasi Vineyard and everything from start to finish was simply amazing. We had guests complimenting everything from the gorgeous venue and delicious food to the outstanding service. Kendyll was our coordinator and words cannot express how helpful she was through the process, and even ensuring that when she was out of office, there was still someone assisting me as we got closer to wedding day. Thanks to Gervasi, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more.

This is a hidden gem in Northeast Ohio! My husband and I got married at Gervasi two weeks ago and it was amazing! The guests are still raving about the food, breathtaking scenery and hospitality offered by Gervasi. Our event coordinator, Kristine, was super helpful and accommodating throughout the whole process. We had dietary restrictions, so the chef and coordinator adjusted and placed orders specifically for our event. The staff also went out of their way to make sure guests were taken care of. Thank you Kristine, Gervasi and the staff for your superb work and helping make our day so special! 10/10 would DEFINIATELY recommend!!

I photographed a wedding at Gervasi and I can’t recommend it enough! Beautiful on the inside & out! Not only is the ambiance amazing, but so is the food and staff. The event coordinator, Brit, was very professional and helpful to both the bride and groom as well as other vendors.

I was a bride on May 1 at the Balleria Sophia at Gervasi, and it was an absolute dream come true. My coordinate, Brit, was exceptional. This venue is outstanding. Every single guest of ours was so impressed with the service and beauty. I already wish I could relive my entire wedding weekend. Best experience of my entire life!

Our daughter’s wedding was at the Ballaria Sophia at Gervasi’s last weekend. A fairytale dream wedding, to say the least. Our Event Coordinator, Brittaney Stenger, whom we met with several times, was truly a God send. Her experience in organizing the event was outstanding. Her calming and highly professional manners were so greatly appreciated by us. She far outweighed our expectations for this wedding and has been a true blessing. We highly recommend Gervasi Vineyard especially since Brit is the Event Coordinator. Thank you, Brit!!!

My now husband and I had one of our very first dates at the Crush House on the Gervasi property, and I always knew if we ever got married, I wanted it to be at Gervasi. The property alone is absolutely beautiful. Within a few weeks of being engaged we had reached out to schedule a visit to see if my dream of getting married there could become a reality. While looking at the property we explored where our ceremony would be, and from that moment I just knew we HAD to have our ceremony there. From the moment we booked our date, the entire Gervasi team was so helpful. We had the pleasure of trying to plan our wedding during a pandemic, but you would have never known that this was a first for many. The Gervasi staff, especially Kristine (and Kendyll), handled everything with grace – they took care of every small detail, made suggestions and helped us navigate through the many changes and restrictions that were in place. We cannot say enough wonderful things about the Gervasi staff, if we are ever looking to plan another event in the future, this will be the first place we look!

Gervasi made our day spectacular. My wife and I were treated so well and the day went off without a hitch. The food was amazing, the service was impeccable and I could not ask for a better venue. Kendyll was absolutely superb. She was easy to work with, she helped us with all of our changes and helped keep our wedding day perfect even with COVID-19 restrictions. She was everywhere you needed her to be, she even helped bustle my wedding dress! Gervasi is LGBTQ+ friendly and they are proud to serve couples like me and my wife. We were never treated like less than, and everyone made sure we had the best day.

We had a great wedding and reception. With all the new Covid restrictions we were worried our day wouldn’t look the way we wanted but we were blown away. Everything was perfect and our wedding coordinator, Kendyll, worked hard to ensure we had a great time. She gave us multiple layout options that were covid friendly, she explained the new rules and regulations in ways that made sense for our event, and she made all the last minute changes we needed without a single compliant. The food was amazing. It’s been a week and our family and friends still have not stopped talking about how beautiful our day was. Kendyll and the Gervasi staff were all so LGBTQ friendly as well. We never felt uncomfortable and we were treated with dignity and respect just as every other couple should be! I would highly recommend Gervasi to anyone looking for a beautiful wedding experience.

Best reception ever. If you love an Italian food, vineyard/winery vibes – you need to get married here! Staff was amazing and our wedding was perfect thanks to our event coordinator Brit!

Gervasi was everything I ever dreamed of and more. Not only is it absolutely stunning, but the planning processes with their team was seamless from the start! They were overly accommodating (especially considering all the chaos that 2020 threw at us, causing huge changes in our wedding day plans)! Their staff is top notch and I was overly pleased with our on site coordinator, Kendyll. She helped with so much of the planning and details leading up to the wedding day and made the day-off setup simple and stress-free. If there were any hiccups along the way, I didn’t know of them because they were handled and our day was truly perfect. She had a suggestion for anything and everything. They are all professional, buttoned-up and have a solution for literally everything! I was so pleased with our experience. Our wedding party also stayed in their on-site villas which were the icing on the cake of a perfect weekend! They are beautiful and I highly recommend!

We had our wedding reception on 9/27/2020 in the Villa Grande. I could not have imagined a more beautiful reception. The staff is incredible, professional, accommodating and so very nice. The service, food, location was outstanding!! I am so glad we decided to have our celebration at Gervasi!! Thank you to all the staff and a special thanks to Kristine for all the extra help!! Brides if you want to enjoy your day and not stress about all the little details, make sure to go to Gervasi!!

We had the best world class experience you could ever ask for at Gervasi. They were there every step of the way to answer any questions we had or make any changes. Kristine was also great! She was very patient with us and never pushed us in a direction that we didn’t feel comfortable with. If you are looking for a place to hold your wedding or any event, we highly recommend Gervasi. They delivered all the way to the end and never disappointed. Plus the grounds are absolutely stunning!

Gervasi is a beautiful venue that made the perfect backdrop for our wedding day! We had to downsize our wedding due to COVID-19, but friends who have seen our photos are having a hard time believing we had our wedding in Canton, OH and not in Italy! The property is gorgeous, and we loved not only our reception in the Pavilion, but staying in the villa and the Casa as well. Kendyll was our coordinator, and she and Stephanie were so helpful in making many adjustments to our wedding as it was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The day came together perfectly despite the changes, and we are grateful for their help!

We had our wedding on 8/28/20 at Gervasi and we really could not say enough great things about the whole process. We were assigned an in house planner, Brit, who truly made planning a breeze. We fully trusted Brit in the planning and we were not let down by the quality of service and amazing food. If you have ever had dinner at Gervasi, you know the attention to detail that is put in to each dining experience. The same attention to detail, and beyond, is presented with weddings and rehearsal dinners. On our wedding day it was pouring for a majority of the evening. Even with being in the outdoor pavilion the evening ran smoothly. The staff was extremely accommodating whenever we wanted to have the curtains pulled opened or closed to avoid the side ways rain! If you are second guessing having your wedding at Gervasi, don’t. You will not be disappointed!

Gervasi and their entire staff were amazing during my daughter’s wedding. We stayed in the Villas on property and that made the weekend even more special. The communications throughout the entire process were great and they helped us have a fabulous wedding and reception.

Beth and I are local wedding photographers. We have had the pleasure of photographing at so many different venues. Gervasi is so unique in that you experience like it is a real destination wedding in Ohio. We look forward to every opportunity that we have to photograph at Gervasi.

We had our intimate wedding (28 people) at the Conservatory followed by dinner at The Bistro on 1/4/2020. I cannot say enough good things about how beautiful and how easy Gervasi was to work with. The decorations that came with the Conservatory were beautiful (Holiday decor) so we only had to add a few personal touches. The food was amazing at the Bistro and our guests all enjoyed it as well. We stayed at The Casa and that was amazing! It truly was a stress – free wedding ceremony and dinner and perfect for any couple looking to do something simple, yet elegant!

Gervasi Vineyard is an amazing wedding venue, tucked away in Canton, OH! We got married at the Balleria Sophia, and it was more than I ever dreamed of. Our wedding planner, Kristine, was so friendly and helpful. The staff of servers, bartenders, and the police officer were so nice, and made it such an amazing event for our friends and families. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place!

We had our wedding at the Pavilion on October 11, 2019. We could not have asked for better weather, it was just the perfect day! Our coordinator, Kendyll, was amazing and helped us with all the details leading up to the big day! She was so helpful! The staff there was absolutely wonderful the entire day. From the preparations, ceremony, cocktail hour, and then the reception everything was done efficiently. Gorgeous venue, delicious food, and amazing staff. You can’t go wrong! We stayed at the Casa for a couple nights after, and it was the best way to spend the perfect weekend!

My daughter’s wedding was at Gervasi on Thursday, September 26. I want to send my thanks to all of the staff that helped to make this day a success. Kendyll is an amazing coordinator who never gets stressed or irritable. All the servers and bartenders were wonderful. Regardless of my requests, they came through without hesitation. All of the staff members were attentive and kind. I cannot say enough about how impressed I was the entire day. Thank you for making this wedding so special and worry-free.

Gervasi was a dream location for my wife and I, and throughout the process they made it perfect for us. Despite getting rained on, it was the perfect day. I’m still getting compliments from friends and family weeks later about how beautiful it was and how delicious the food and drinks were. We forever will remember our wedding day because of Gervasi!

My husband and I got married at the Conservatory in June and had a reception/dinner with our family and friends at the Bistro. It was phenomenal. In planning, we worked with Kristen who was an absolute gem. She was prompt at responding to my questions and made the planning simple. On the day of the event, she and Brad went above and beyond! There was never an empty glass or plate and their personalities were just glowing! After the ceremony, they even gathered our decorations and took them back to our villa so we could continue our celebrations at the Still House. They truly made our day even better than we could have imagined! As for the food, it was just as wonderful! All of our guests raved about how great it was. My husband and I didn’t have to worry about a think and we couldn’t have been more pleased! Thank you again to Kristen and Brad!

She was awesome throughout the entire planning process and gave suggestions when needed! I highly recommend getting married at gervasi vineyard.

If you think the Gervasi Vineyard looks absolutely gorgeous online, you would be correct. But its even more spectacular in person. They have thought of every last detail. Planning a wedding from across the country (in 2 months none the less!) is no easy task however, Tina and Brad were fast with email replies, answered every question and helped make sure the day went off without a hitch. Tina was there to help coordinate the ceremony. She was always on top of things! I have to say Brad was the BIGGEST help I didn’t even realize I needed. He was there during our entire reception, making sure guests were served and happy. He helped push things along (without being rushed) to make sure everything got done in our time allotted and as an extra plus …My cup was never empty! You have a million places to choose from when looking for a wedding venue…The Gervasi Vineyard was an excellent choice. The grounds were beautiful and the Villas that most of our family stayed in were classy and warming. We will certainly be returning here for our anniversaries!
