The Mill Lakeside Manor

The Mill Lakeside Manor… where to even start. Well, I guess I can start by saying that as I am writing this, my new husband and I are polishing the leftover food containers (they give you every plate you touched and did not finish at the end of the night). Everything tastes phenomenal and we literally mean everything. This is not an exaggeration. Aside from the food everyone has been raving about for days… I had a significant dress mishap before getting to the Mill. Lada and Richard fixed my dress in a matter of minutes upon arrival and relieved all my jitters. The entire staff was insanely helpful and sweet from start to finish. The Mill holds every couple to a GOLD standard, not silver, not bronze. Gold. We are still in a wedding haze (3 days ago) and had to get the word out there about our experience. If anyone is considering the Mill for their special day, allow this to be your sign. Every bride and groom should feel the way this place made us feel. We had the most amazing views on the lake, in the garden, from the balcony. We felt like we were in a fairytale. Everything was so vibrant and aesthetically pleasing. Gorgeous photos taken on the dock, in the garden, even in front of those beautiful doors! Photos that we will cherish forever.

We cannot say enough about how wonderful The Mill was for our wedding! Between the beautiful grounds and amazing staff, having our wedding at The Mill was hands down the best decision we made. Our coordinator Sue was nothing short of amazing. She was so helpful and attentive to detail. Richard the maitre d is beyond amazing, and genuinely feels like part of our family now! The food was absolutely amazing, and there are SO many options for cocktail hour. We had guests who didn’t realize there was a dinner too, that’s how extensive the menu was. If we could do it all over again, we’d get married at The Mill ten times. We cannot recommend this venue and their incredible staff enough!

What a great experience working with The Mill. we got married March 12, 2022 (a very cold day). The venue staff leading up to the day had amazing communication, was very on top of the timeline and was overall so pleasant to meet with. The day of the wedding, us ladies were running behind, yet not one thing went wrong and the staff kept everything on time. I even forgot to give the rings to the best man and one of my girls quietly told Richard during the ceremony and he ran down and found them, handing them down the line of the groomsman just in time! lol The food was amazing, and every picture we took even inside since it was so cold, was timeless. I know price is very important now a days and this venue was worth every penny. I hope a friend gets married here so I can really take it all in!

*Photo Credits Tina Elizabeth Photography* My husband, and I had our reception at The Mill Lakeside Manor on January 30th 2022, and we had an incredible time. From the time we booked in summer 2019, we loved the customer service, and personal touches the venue can add to your wedding day. We truly learned how above, and beyond this company goes once we entered the pandemic, and we decided to postpone our wedding from our original date to late January of 2022. While this experience of postponing was challenging, and emotionally difficult, The Mill and our coordinators, Ashley and Jackie, were empathic, and professional as we moved our wedding date. Throughout the planning process, with some fear of possible increasing COVID restrictions during Fall/Winter of 2021/2022, Jackie was open, and honest when we asked some difficult questions. We really appreciated her transparency, and honesty. To top off our eventful wedding planning process, the night before our wedding we had a major nor’easter that brought us well over a foot of snow. Stressed with other aspects of the wedding, like making sure all our vendors were able to make it the following day, we had trusted The Mill without any worry that their venue would be open and ready-to-go for us. By the next day, the grounds of The Mill looked beautiful, and snowy. All our guests arrived safe, and were astonished by the views. Our cocktail hour was outstanding, with so many food options that all our guests were highly satisfied with. Our guests continue to talk about how great all the food was from cocktail hour to dessert! My husband, and I had a private cocktail hour in the bridal suite where our food was brought to us to enjoy. This was one of my favorite moments of the day, because it caused us to slow down, and truly enjoy some time alone (which we definitely did, as we enjoyed the food and our signature drinks). Our bridal attendant, Heidi, was so helpful from bustling my dress perfectly, to always making sure myself, my husband, and our families had exactly what they needed throughout the night. She was kind, helpful, and professional! She even packed up the cocktail hour food, our dinners, and desserts that we didn’t have time to eat for us to enjoy the next day! Our Maitre D, Richard, was fantastic since day one when we met him during our tasting. He set up the decor perfectly, and understood our vision very well. He also kept the night moving steadily and smoothly. He organized our bridal party quickly for the reception entrances. Throughout the night, he worked in the background to make sure everything went perfectly for us, which definitely did not go unnoticed by my husband, and I. Richard’s humor, kindness, and professionalism made him the perfect Maitre D for our wedding reception. We appreciate him so much and cannot say enough great things about him! Overall, both myself and my husband, cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our experience working with The Mill, and all the staff members! We will recommend this venue to any couple who is looking for a great, friendly, and professional team; a fantastic range of food cuisines that tasted amazing (thank you Chef Hassan!); and an overall enchanting wedding reception that you and your guests will never forget. We cannot wait to visit again during an alumni event, so we can relive our best day ever, and catch-up with the people that we have grown close with throughout the past few years of wedding planning. Thank you so much for giving us the best wedding ever and a day we will never forget! -Lauren & Steve K.
