welcome to TheMarmaladeLily
The Marmalade Lily is an idyllic farm-style venue located just outside Cincinnati, OH in the heart of Loveland. Let the charming barn and gardens sweep you away with gorgeous garden backdrops while experiencing the unparalleled value and outstanding customer service offered.
The grounds offer a serene setting for your special day: mature trees, a reflecting pond, and scattered garden vignettes. The upscale event barn features a neutral color palette, open-plan layout, and stunning covered patio. Brides will also be able to enjoy the luxurious bridal suite before their journeys down the aisle.
The Marmalade Lily offers full-service packages that provide couples with three complimentary planning meetings with a personal, in-house wedding coordinator in addition to your wedding florals!
We are so much more than a florist and wedding venue...we are family. From the time you reach out to us to the end of your reception, we take every little detail into account. We promise to take care of everything and give you the chance to relax and be fully present for every beautiful moment on your special day.
