For guests traveling from out of town there are many great places for you to visit during your stay. The hotel block at the Fairfield is more for convenience as it's 5 minutes from the wedding venue. If you are considering other options, and are not familiar with Columbus, here are a few recommendations:
1) Easton Town Center - see attached link for all this area has to offer. There are numerous retail stores, restaurants, hotels, and things to do. If you're looking to spend some time shopping, want an extensive list of restaurants, and be in a place that is open and fairy vibrant then this could be the location for you. It is only a 15 minute drive to our wedding venue and it is 5 minutes from the Airport.

2) Downtown Columbus & The Short North - if the City lights are your preference and you want to be in the heart of the city then we recommend you stay downtown and close to the Short North area (High Street). Like Easton, there are numerous hotels, restaurants, stores and activities. The Short North is known for its small boutique stores, and spending an afternoon walking High Street is always a treat as you venture in and out of stores, bars, and restaurants. Ohio State campus is just a few miles north of town and German Village is just a mile south of town (if you are looking to explore). Our wedding venue is roughly 25-30 minutes from the City.

3) The Polaris Area - located north of Columbus, this location offers the large Fashion Place Mall as well as numerous restaurants, shopping and hotels that are located near the mall. From this location you can venture in downtown Westerville and take in small boutique stores and restaurants. This location is a little more spread out than Easton and not as busy as the City. The Polaris Mall is roughly 15-20 minutes from our wedding venue. See attached link for more information.
