Kirtland Country Club occupies the former Leo Doro Farms, the estate of Mrs. Henry A. Everett, whose 1910 stone mansion serves today as the Club's Tudor-style Clubhouse. Stockholders purchased the property in 1920, and the Club formally opened on July 9, 1921. A fire destroyed the original Clubhouse in 1975; it was rebuilt and reopened the following year, then renovated again in 2008 to add the Club Room and restore the West Porch's fireplace and French doors. A private, member-owned club in Willoughby, Ohio, Kirtland hosts wedding ceremonies and receptions either inside the Clubhouse or on the lawn overlooking its formal gardens. The Clubhouse accommodates up to 250 guests, and the lawn up to 500. The Club's Catering & Events Manager oversees menu selection, vendor coordination, and reception timelines, and the Club also welcomes couples' own independent wedding planners. Events require membership or a member sponsor, and the Club provides all food and beverage service for every celebration held there.

Mooreland Mansion is a historic event center on the campus of Lakeland Community College in Kirtland, Ohio. Originally built as a summer estate for Cleveland financier Edward William Moore, the neo-classical mansion was designed by architect Arthur N. Oviatt and later expanded in 1906 by Milton Dyer. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the mansion underwent a $3 million renovation before reopening in 1998 as a venue for meetings, conferences, banquets, and special events. The mansion's first-floor rooms retain many original details, from the wood-paneled Foyer and its original grandfather clock to the President's Living Room, which still holds an original Steinway grand piano and brick fireplace. The Oviatt Room can be arranged as a banquet space, dance floor, classroom, or auditorium, while the Restoration Room features a bar salvaged from Moore's private railroad car. The South Verandah, a covered outdoor porch, accommodates seating, a dance floor, and cocktail-hour high-top tables overlooking the grounds. Upstairs, several rooms furnished with original Moore family pieces serve meetings and conferences. The estate's grounds include three distinct gardens - a Rose Garden with roughly 1,000 roses, a Green Garden built on a former tennis court, and a Formal Garden blending Victorian geometry with English cottage style - maintained by the Mooreland Restoration Garden Club and used as a backdrop for events and photography.
