A View West Shores

t decisions we made during the planning process. The venue windows are facing West so the sunset hits the windows so perfectly right on the dance floor. We had our head table set up with the lake in the background and the pictures are breathtaking. Truthfully, I am not sure you’re going to find a more beautiful venue in Nebraska. Expense-wise, it’s worth it. If it’s in your budget, this is your place to spend your money. I was absolutely blown away by the communication, meetings, emails, and the overall comfortable feeling we had every time we walked through the doors. Katina, Lindsay, and Conner were absolutely incredible. From a bride's perspective, A View West Shores is going to make you feel like royalty. They treat their brides, especially, so well. The suites downstairs, and the accommodations they had for our entire bridal party were so professional. Luckily, we were the only event booked that ENTIRE week in August so the wedding week was completely stress-free as Katina allowed me to set up that Wednesday prior to the Saturday wedding! When booking a venue, I remember walking down to the lake at A View West Shores and instantly looking over to my fiance at the time. It was absolutely silent and he just hugged me. He knew. He knew this was where I would be the most happy on the best day of our lives. We booked the venue that night and still today are blown away by the scenery. I felt right back at home, and at some angles, it may have even been prettier ;) After seeing some reviews, I do think a lot of couples expect vendors to completely read their minds and take care of everything. Unfortunately, if you want YOUR perfect day, the couple will have to meet in the middle with the effort. This venue especially where you can have multiple events in a night makes it even more important to communicate. I would say as long as you are organized and discuss exactly what you envision and give a timeline to follow, this venue will exceed your expectations. Not being afraid to ask questions and keeping active communication I believe is the reason that everything ran so smoothly throughout the entire process...( I even sent a final email the NIGHT before to confirm some untouched topics and they turned out to be the things we got complimented on the most!). S/O to Katina and Lindsay for allowing me to spam their inbox for months :) Thank you @aviewvenues for giving me a place that felt like home. A place that my family from Minnesota even raved about the day of. There was nothing but smiles and sunshine overlooking the shore all day. It’s “A view” you just can’t top anywhere else in this state😌…See what I did there ;) Will forever be recommending this place to couples! All our love, The Schovanec’s

w husband, knows the lake as my happy place, so it all made sense. The venue space itself was modern, elegant, yet simple, which was the style we were looking for. Not to mention, the staff was amazing to work with the entire 10 months of planning. We worked specifically with Katina for our planning and she was always available to meet when we wanted to change a few minor details to our space. The day of our wedding, we worked with Britney and she was bubbly as can be on our special day and made everything so seamless. Still to this day we’re not sure how she can remain so calm while trying to wrangle the wedding party, especially our large group.

nd to get any pictures or video footage done. Our private vows were interrupted by another couple doing their rehearsal to which our photographer was yelled at when she asked them to be a little quieter. An earlier ceremony had gotten done and all of their guests were directed through the hallway passing all of the bridal suites instead of outside. Random people came into our bridal suite. Random people stopped into our ballroom during our reception. Overall, would not get married there if we had a do-over. Thankfully our photos came out great- but the stressors and feelings of frustration related to these events remain.

venue immediately after this happened, because it was also a coincidence that I just moved to Kansas City right when this happened. The whole team was willing to work with us during our entire engagement via Zoom and email to make the long-distance wedding planning less stressful. The entire team was accommodating and went above and beyond our needs. Any little question or concern I had, they were there to help us out and answer things for me! This venue is at such a beautiful location... we got so many compliments from our wedding guests about it! The fact that it sits on a lake is just breathtaking! Our lake shots with our photographer turned out beautiful! I could not recommend A View West Shores enough!

tch care of us & made all of our requests a possibility . Best view, best staff. So grateful for our experience with A View Westshores

d accessible throughout the whole planning process. We received wonderful compliments about the A View staff and their help with guests who required assistance. Overall, we had a great experience and we are so glad we chose A View West Shores for our special day!

as incredibly helpful—they helped us every single step of the way and made our dream day come true! We had a little miscommunication with our ceiling decorations and they were able to fix it right away. Amazing people to work with and so helpful and informative

enough great things about her. She was on top of everything and if something went wrong on our wedding day, we didn’t know what it was because she took care of everything. She is the sweetest person and I could tell she really cared about what we wanted. Our day was an absolute dream and we are so happy we chose this venue! Highly recommend!

recommend A View- West Shores to anyone looking for a wedding a beautiful wedding venue with accommodating staff.

ve and beyond. On the day of, our event coordinator kept everything running and ensured everything was on time, which was super important to me. The venue itself is also gorgeous! Thank you to the A View team for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

of went smoothly, I love how involved she was on our day even with other events happening too.

of everything but they were the most kind and super fun to work with. Not only were we (the bride and groom) extra appreciative BUT we had several compliments from family and friends on how well everything went because of these two. Thank you guys again for making our special day one to remember!

were in our own world the whole time. Lindsey was an absolutely dream to work with. I’m very type A and she matched my energy from the moment we met. She answered all of my questions and talked through all of my concerns with thoughtfulness. She gave her opinion and truly helped me create the wedding of my dreams. I didn’t worry at all on my big day because I knew she was taking care of everything. I can’t say enough amazing things about her. Lindsey truly played such a huge part in my wedding and deserves every praise and recommendation in the book. She went above and beyond for me and the guests. My wedding wouldn’t have been as perfect as it was without her. I could not recommend A View West Shores enough!!

ous but our coordinators are the ones who made it truly seamless. The entire process was such a great experience. Katina was our day of coordinator and one of the many who helped us create the vision we had for our perfect day. We LOVED having everything included in our package so that we did not have to add more vendors to the day, which, eliminated coordinating with more people. I felt heard and guided through every step of the planning process. We are still in awe of how amazing the evening at West Shores was. Our guest are still raving how smooth and efficient the evening was. Thank you A VIEW West Shores for bringing our dream wedding alive and a night to remember. I would recommend A VIEW if you are looking for a smooth wedding planning process with the best wedding day of coordinators! They are truly amazing!!

ion we needed. When we booked our wedding the venue wasn't even completed yet. Then we worked with Katina for all of our day of details and she never made us feel like a bother. I am a planner and she always made sure my questions were answered. Autumn was our day of coordinator and she was nothing short of phenomenal! My husband and I never lifted a finger that day and if there was ever even a question or concern Autumn was on top of it. We were blown away with every single employee from A View from the bar tenders, to the clean up and set up crew. If you are even considering A View venues (especially West Shores) we would say book it, you will not regret it! The venue in and around itself is beautiful in every aspect. Thank you A View for making our day beyond perfect!

tep up until the wedding. Our day went perfectly and highly recommend this place!

commend the venue! The place is stunning and everyone had such an amazing experience!!!!

onse time to questions throughout the process was so fast and I loved the option to text them my question.

njoy our day and not worry about the details, which is priceless! We are so appreciative of all her hard work and couldn’t be happier with how the reception went!

y for me to plan meetings with them and answered all my questions, but my biggest thing is that they had to deal with my dad. I felt so bad for all my vendors with how difficult my dad was but A View handled him amazingly. Especially Katina since she was the main person we worked with. They went through A LOT and bent over backwards for us basically and I couldn’t be more thankful for them. They were so professional and accommodating the whole time. They really are with you EVERY step of the way and I was extra thankful for Katina on our big day. I’m so glad we were able to get the West Shores venue because it was BEAUTIFUL and I loved having private bridal & groom suites. If you book with them you won’t regret it!
