I'm having a real issue finding a location that allows an outside catering service for the reception and my fiance's heart is SET on having Inky's cater.  (I don't have the heart to tell him no since it's the only thing he seems to care about for some reason.) Anyone have any suggestions?

    There's a union hall over by Bass Pro that allows outside catering.  I'm not sure of the name of it or what union it is, but the building is actually really nice.  It's our back up plan if our reception site falls through.

    Also, Space237 allows receptions and you can use outside catering.

    If I think of anymore I'll let ya know!


    What is Inky's catering?

    I'm not positive on these, but I think that the Franciscan Center at Lourdes College does.

    You could check out the Ward Pavillion at Wildwood (or the buildings at any of the Toledo Metroparks, actually... http://www.metroparkstoledo.com/metro/whattodo/index.asp?page_id=550)

    I am pretty sure St. George Orthodox Cathedral's reception hall does. I am having my reception there because we needed a family caterer to do ours. It's large and you can do a lot with it. (You don't have to be a member of the church. We are not.) It's located in Rossford, off of the Buck Road Exit.

    The Fransican Center at Lourdes, St. George Othordow in Rossford, Stranahan Great Hall, and  SeaGate Center all allow bringing in outside caterers. The problem is, some places have a certain list of their "preferred caterers." If your caterer is not on their list, expect to pay about 10% more to bring them in. You also need to make sure the caterer is insured and has proof they are willing to show you. Hope that helps.

    Lakeview does not allow you to bring in your own caterer -- you have to use Premier Catering.

    Other places that allow your own caterer:

    Conn-Weissenberger on Alexis
    Any American Legion
    The Franciscan Center in Sylvania
    The Knights of Columbus hall on Secor
    St Clement's on Tremainsville
