About Us

Welcome to The Marilyn—New Philadelphia’s newest (and chicest) wedding venue, where Old Hollywood glamour meets modern romance. Playfully named after the legendary Marilyn Monroe and nestled inside the nostalgic Monroe Mall, our space brings fresh energy to a location rich in local history. If you grew up in the area, you know the memories this place holds—and now, it’s ready to be part of your next unforgettable chapter.

The Marilyn is more than a beautiful venue; it’s a labor of love from husband-and-wife team Aron and Shane Satterfield, proud owners of Nora Party Rentals and The Emerson. As a family-owned business serving Tuscarawas County and beyond, we’re passionate about creating meaningful spaces where people can gather, celebrate, and make lifelong memories. In the spirit of the Monroe Mall’s original 1974 vision—as the “new downtown” of the area—The Marilyn brings new life to a beloved landmark, offering a stunning backdrop for weddings, events, and everything in between.
