The Marcum Hotel & Conference Center at Miami University

We used the Marcum Center as well as the Formal Gardens and the Miami Inn. All three were perfect. They were able to reserve that garden for our ceremony which was wonderful. We were also able to use rooms in both the Inn and the Marcum Center for the wedding party to get ready in.

We didn't use the Marcum Conference Center, but we did use the Sesquicentennial Chapel to get married in. The process was easy, and we had plenty of time for rehearsal, and it was conveniently air conditioned. We had about 160 people attending, and with that number, the pews looked perfectly full and everyone had a seat.

Jane and the other staff there were AMAZING to work with. I received so many compliments from guests on how amazing everything was from the food to the people to the room! They made everything so easy!

My experience working with Jane and the Marcum Conference Center was extremely positive. I wasn't sure what to expect with having dinner and dancing in two separate rooms, but it worked out very well and I have no complaints on having to change rooms. Jane answered all of my many many questions thoroughly and timely. We did not do a tasting, but the two meals we ended up picking from the menu were amazing. The staff that helped the day of made sure everything went smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing. The only thing I would have found to be more helpful would to have had an FAQ in the planning process and the decor of the rooms might be a draw back for some brides since the decorations/wallpaper/carpet are not the most contemporary. I would recommend this facility to any bride since the staff helped to make my reception a huge success.

The Marcum Conference Center is a very beautiful facility inside and out. The reception rooms are very elegant with state-of-the-art audio visual equipment, and the outside grounds and gardens are stunning with beautiful scenic backdrops for pictures. The staff is very professional and have many resources they can utilize to accommodate your needs. My wife and I would like to thank Ms. Jane Gaitskill for all her help in making our wedding and reception a very memorable and special day. She is very organized, professional, and will make nearly anything you desire come true. The Kumler Chapel is considered one of the most beautiful places you will ever see. It sits in a picturesque historic part of the Miami University campus and has an outstanding newly restored pipe organ that will give your wedding a step above all your expectations. Everything that is needed to make your wedding tasteful and memorable is at one place.

Overall, we had a wonderful experience with Miami University and the Marcum Center. We worked with Jane, and she was great to work with. She was very helpful in organizing everything - she met with us frequently and was flexible in terms of when to meet. She did a great job of communicating with us and was very prompt in responding to any of our questions.We used the Sesquicentennial Chapel. It was very clean. We asked that they tune the piano prior to our ceremony and they took care of it. It was a beautiful setting for our pictures.The reception was great. We had a cocktail hour prior to dinner, and the only hiccup all night was that we were short a bartender, which led to a long line at the bar. However, they were quick to get a second person in there (I didn't even notice the issue until I was told about it later), and they refunded us the cost of that bartender for the entire night.The food was amazing - we had quite a few people comment that it was the best wedding food they ever had. Everything went very smoothly - the transitions were easy, there were no long gaps between courses, and they did a great job of keeping wine glasses full. We had an amazing reception thanks to the great job of the staff at Marcum!

It was wonderful- the only thing was that we had a little trouble with the AV but your guys figured it out for us. The dinner was delicious and the service was superb. We appreciated the fact that you gave us a bigger room when it opened up. Thanks again

We held my son and daughter-in-law's wedding rehearsal dinner at Marcum Center. It was AMAZING! I received so many compliments! The food, service and facility were all awesome!!! The wedding reception was also AMAZING! Can't say anything negative!!!

They were great, very helpful and informative!

It was fabulous!

I was married at Sesquicentennial Chapel. The newly renovated chapel was lovely. The booking process was simple.

I was very happy with how well they worked with me on my wedding. I couldn't have asked for nicer people! The only disadvantage was the bar selections and pricing.

The staff at Marcum Conference Center was absolutely amazing. They made sure everything went smoothly and that everyone had a great time. We had soooooo many compliments on the food, the beauty of the campus and the building. Everything at Marcum was absolutely perfect.

Jane Gaitskill at Marcum was incredibly helpful in thinking of items I had not. This was a second wedding for both my spouse and me requiring some variations of the traditional wedding. She was also instrumental in providing accomodations for one of our wheel-chair handicapped guests.

Great Place for a wedding!

I had an amazing experience getting married in the Formal Gardens at Miami University. I would suggest it to anyway. However, beware of the HOT months. It's a perfect venue for late spring, early summer, and early fall.
