CELEBRATE YOUR

Wedding Reception with Us

Your wedding reception is a party to celebrate two people joining together surrounded by family and friends. We, at Ole Zim’s would like the opportunity to make your vision for your special day a reality.  In addition to your reception, we also offer on-premise wedding ceremonies either in our hall or outside on the property (weather permitting). Ole Zim’s will work with you to plan a successful reception from start to finish. The information provided below will give you a starting point to plan your reception with us. After you have decided on a date(s), call us so we may check the availability of your choice(s). NO dates are held until the hall rental fee is paid in full. All hall rental charges include set-up and clean-up of the hall, a hall rental time of 5 hours with all receptions ending by 12:00 midnight. Ole Zim’s prefers that you does not allow sand, stone, glitter, confetti, birdseed, bubbles, silly string or straw bales inside the hall. If you choose to use any of these items an additional hall clean-up charge of $100.00 will be assessed.

“Our wedding reception was perfection beginning to end. Communication was easy and helpful before the day. Everything was set up ready for us to decorate. The night of everything went perfectly smoothly from beginning to end! Could not be happier! It was gorgeous.”

Robert Ida

“Attended a recent wedding reception at Ole Zim’s. The food was very good, homemade mashed potatoes, roast beef and gravy, fried chicken and macaroni and cheese. The chicken was very moist. All the food was very good. I was told that on Sunday’s they offer family style dinner and place is packed.”

Amanda Cajka

“We would like to thank Ole Zim’s for everything they did to make our wedding reception perfect! Everything from the food, to the decorations, to the service, was amazing and we really appreciate everything they did! The service is fantastic and John is so easy to work with! Thank you again!”

“We had our wedding here yesterday, and everything was great! They were so quick with cleaning up after their lunch service and setting up our dinner tables. John was great to work with through the whole wedding planning and always put my mind at ease! Food is fantastic, homestyle cookin! We also love that they are very family oriented. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend!”
