I had a wedding here 4/26/22. Although the place is beautiful, I am deeply disappointed with their service. To start out, a cup with sparkling cider was promised for each person to be provided at the seating table, instead there was some cider provided but just a handful of guests got it before it was out. The food was bland and gross. The food taken away when people weren’t even done eating, from their table, if they stood up. The buffet was cleared out so that no one could get seconds. And a few guests came late and didn’t even get to eat. We paid for the food and had guests going hungry? I had asked before for some details to be changed, they said they would, and it was never done. Overall the attitude from the cooks and workers was horrible and mean, no one was smiling or happy. We were treated absolutely horribly. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

Beautiful, quiet little place with ample parking, a nice, large interior, okay sound system, clean bathrooms, and wide side doors that open when it's warm. Staff were helpful and respectful for our celebration of life. Food was good, too.

The wedding of our daughter, Melissa and our son-in-law, Dennis at Lakeside Gardens was a wonderful & memorable experience for our families. Lakeside Gardens is a perfect venue for a wedding. We would highly recommend having your wedding there. We were so pleased and grateful we did. The grounds are breathtaking, the food was delicious & received numerous compliments from our guests. Taylor and the rest of the staff were wonderful, so efficient, well organized, helpful and accommodating. Thank you Taylor, Noelle and the rest of the staff. We really appreciated you all very much for making Dennis and Melissa's wedding day so special.

If you want a gorgeous indoor and outdoor wedding venue that does it all flawlessly, do yourself a favor and choose Lakeside Gardens. Even though it rained, ours turned out to be the most easy, dreamy wedding a couple could ask for. From the very beginning planning stages with our organizer, Taylor, to a beautifully executed function, I truly don't know if there's another venue that would have handled our wedding better than Lakeside Gardens. When our original venue closed down in 2020 due to the pandemic, we kept our contracts with some of our original vendors. The only exception was a florist. We hadn’t secured one yet so we used Lakeside Gardens’ florist and she took my succulent and plum dahlia floral vision and made it all come to life while saving us a ton of money. On the day of our wedding, Taylor and her crew were adaptable with switching our outdoor ceremony to an all indoor ceremony and reception due to the rain. There was even a power outage when the bridal party arrived and, thanks to a generator, none of our guests had a clue the power was out. The DJ played on, the kitchen still cranked out amazing food and the whole service staff was on point. We never worried or wanted for anything on our big day. Taylor was right there, the whole evening, with us until the end, keeping things rolling and gently reminding us of our timeline. She seemed to be everywhere, all the time. Our guests were awestruck at how beautiful the venue was and how on top of everything the staff was throughout the night. I have nothing but the highest recommendations for the venue, Taylor and her staff. If you want a professionally executed, easy wedding that will impress your guests, choose Lakeside Gardens.

My wedding and reception for 60 people total is just under 8k but I'll be getting back a 500 deposit. That's food and everything they provide for 5 hours.
Yes they do. Best to contact the director for prices. They have excellent catering, and prices vary depending on what you pick. You can hire your entertainment, or they can provide (music).
We have many catering options. We offer a lighter Hors D'oeuvres Menu and also a Dinner Buffet Menu with many entree options. Our minimum is $18.00 per person.
I am not sure the history that far back. The location used to be a restaurant with seating by the lake (now converted into our terrace room). We have been an event center for almost 30 years!
Hi Becky, Would do have a rental fee to use the grounds for photos. Let us know if you are interested.
Yes we do accept credit cards for payment
