St. Aloysius 4721 Reading Road, Cincinnati, OH 45237

"Went to school here when I was little. They served salad macaroni one time and I decided to throw it away because I didn't want to eat it. The teacher forced me to scoop it out of the trash and make me eat it Or she would beat me half to death"

"Myself as well my three oldest biological brothers where in St Aloysius from 1972 to 1975. Nuns other stuff treated me as well biological brothers loving genuine Care"

"St. Aloysius.... When I decided to search for venues, I went through a checklist of the top 10 venues. But this was not my first choice. But it became the best choice for so many reasons. I didn’t choose St. Aloysius because I’m catholic. St. Aloysius is no longer under the Catholic diocese. It is primarily used as a wedding chapel. It is formally an orphanage and I had no idea it was used as a wedding chapel. I googled the best places to get married in Cincinnati and I toured at least 8 and decided upon this venue. Not all venues were churches but they had the built in wedding and reception package. Which would of been great but for what I wanted those packages didn’t work for me. Debbie is the wedding coordinator who is very kind, passionate about brides and somewhat flexible. They offer, a bridal suite and grooms lounge, which was a plus, but doesn’t have built in time for hair and makeup. It also comes with a day of coordinator and decorations. The acoustics was amazing and I was able to have almost everything I wanted without much fuss. Which was not a lot outside what was offered. Particularly, it was important to escort those who needed wheelchair service. Debbie is not as ridged as the contract but she likes to run on schedule which worked for me. But it is an additional charge for every half hour or hour you go over. The expense was comparable to most of the venues I visited. Compared to the other venues however, they offered more. They were cheaper than the Apostolic Churches with more amenities. Apostolic churches was not really set up to function for weddings. I also could appreciate they did not have a lot of rules for counseling (since we were out of state) and other religious factors (since we were not of the same faith) like some of the other churches I visited since they are not a operating church. I got married in November and it was last minute as far as weddings go I was able to negotiate. But because I liked Debbie so much. I made them my #1. I really wanted the total package. They also put a brick in your names with wedding date on the property which is a nice perk. The deciding factors: 1. Price 2. Aesthetics 3. Handicap Assessable (several venues was not.) 4. Professional 5. Bridal Suite/ Grooms Lounge 6. Acoustics 7. Centrally located/ Free Parking"

"Lived there from 1929 till 1939. Raised by the nuns and had great memories of her time there and the nuns who raised them"

"Worst place ever. Took my child there to recieve help. Took over a month for them to call for an appointment. Then when we get there they tell me there was a scheduling conflict and they cant see my child. The therapist promised me that she would be the only one talking to my child. Turns out they tried to send us to the clinic to see a dr, when i needed a therapist. The receptionist argued with me when i told her we were there for counseling not for any medication. They dont know what they are doing there. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!"
