Cameron Mitchell Premier Events Where History Meets Heart:
A Modern Romance at The Stack

The Venue: The Stack at the Municipal Light Plant

Nestled in the heart of Columbus’ Arena District, The Stack offers a setting that was both symbolic and stunning. This historic landmark represents resilience, transformation, and a bright future—echoing the journey ahead for Alexa and Bryan.

Honoring the love of their community, the floral arrangements were designed by a close friend of the couple. The ceremony space was simply adorned with a garden archway of greenery, perfectly complementing the brick and stone walls and expansive turn-of-the-century windows. Soft green and pastel blooms added a romantic contrast to the venue’s strong architectural lines.

Following the ceremony, guests were guided downstairs to The Cellar for an intimate cocktail hour. The space glowed with candlelight and in-house bistro lighting, offering a cozy yet refined atmosphere. While mingling, guests enjoyed delicious, handcrafted cocktails and a curated selection of tray-passed hors d’oeuvres.

The celebration continued upstairs in The Great Hall, where the ceremony space had been seamlessly transformed into a refined dining room. The atmosphere invited guests to dine, toast, and dance the night away in a space that felt grand and yet deeply personal.

The Catering: A Timeless Culinary Journey

In perfect harmony with the couple’s elegant aesthetic, the menu was classic, elevated, and unforgettable. As the bride later shared in her review, “The food at our wedding was exceptional, and the staff demonstrated remarkable flexibility in accommodating our dietary restrictions.”

The standard of an exceptional culinary experience began during the cocktail hour. The team tray passed a selection of delicious wedding appetizers. The menu?

• Arancini Forks – Golden brown Arborio rice fritters topped with mozzarella and tomato fondue
• Mini Marcella’s Meatballs – An all-beef meatball, baked in San Marzano tomato sauce, and garnished with finely grated parmesan cheese and fresh chopped herbs
• The Pearl Deviled Eggs – A refined take on the classic summer snack, featuring pickled shallots, celery brunoise, chives, and paprika

For the reception, guests began their dining experience with a Caesar Salad, halved Romaine heart, drizzled with a rich house made Caesar dressing, and garnished with fresh backed brioche croutons, shaved Parmigiano Reggiano and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. The salad course was followed by a trio of entrée options:

• Prime Medallion Sirloin with red wine pan sauce, with buttermilk mashed potatoes, and roasted seasonal vegetables
• Roasted Airline Chicken Breast with parsley butter emulsion, served with buttermilk mashed potatoes, and roasted seasonal vegetables
• Sweet Corn Cannelloni, a famous CMPE signature, filled with herbed ricotta and topped with sweet corn emulsion, shaved fennel, and radicchio

In a heartfelt nod to the bride’s Pittsburgh heritage, the couple opted for a cookie table in addition to wedding cake—a beloved family tradition. Guests enjoyed an abundant spread of chocolate chip cookies, snickerdoodles, thumbprint cookies, Magic Bars, and Buckeyes, an Ohio staple.
