FAQs

Common questions about us

What's the capacity for a wedding reception?

Capacity depends on the format — seated dinners, cocktail receptions, and ceremony setups each use the space differently. Contact us with your headcount through our Special Events page and we'll walk through what's possible.

Can guests book a room block for a wedding or event?

Yes. We can arrange a room block for event guests through our booking system. Mention this in your event inquiry and we'll include it in the initial conversation.

How do I get a quote for an event or wedding?

Use the inquiry form on our Special Events page or email kenyon.inn@kenyon.edu with your event type, approximate date, and headcount. The events team will follow up within two business days to schedule a conversation.

Do you do off-site catering?

Yes. The catering team handles events throughout Knox County and the surrounding area. We bring the same local-sourcing approach to off-site catering — Lone Pine beef, Ohio City Pasta, and Gerber Farm produce travel with us. Reach out via our Special Events page or email kenyon.inn@kenyon.edu.

What types of events do you host?

We host weddings, corporate meetings, private dinners, rehearsal dinners, alumni gatherings, and any private event that benefits from a distinctive setting. Our spaces range from intimate private dining for twelve to larger receptions. See more on our Special Events page.
