Camp Loughridge

l couple, but we’re good people. She didn’t seem interested at all, as if she was only there for a pay check. Of course I’m not having my wedding there!

mmend great caterers that they have worked with, great music people and videographers, and many of the other vendors we spoke with had all done weddings there and claimed it was there favorite venue! So helpful!

heat. The conference center was also gorgeous and required minimal decorations. My whole experience with Camp Loughridge was wonderful! It truly is the perfect place for a beautiful, natural wedding.

ime! It was all smooth and so beautiful!

ue! Because of the venue's natural beauty, you can choose to decorate as much or as little (my personal choice) as possible. 3. Convenient location for guests! It's right off the highway and located near a major shopping center, so made it easy to coordinate with. I had an awesome experience and would recommend it to anyone!

ridge was perfect for my boho outdoor wedding! Kenzie was fantastic to work with. Linens were included with our rental and that was so nice not to deal with. A downside is that you ONLY have the venue for 9 hours and any more time, you have to pay for- that includes your set-up as well. The grounds were beautifully kept. We did not have a problem with bugs and this is the first year the fire marshall allowed sparklers to be used for an exit. They have some items you may borrow and that was helpful. The hosts were available and also helpful. Do not come to this venue and expect to have a bridal suite or a place for the bride and her girls to get ready and a place for the men to get ready. It does NOT exist. There is a closet for brides and the maids to be in temporarily before the ceremony but other than that, there is no where. You must be okay getting ready off-site. I would definitely recommend using this location.

nowing that the money paid was going back to the camp to help with camp scholarships and what not, rather than some places that charge a ton and it's just all for profit. The grounds were nice and neat, even though it had rained that morning. I really guess my only negative would have been the number of hours you get to be at the venue for set up and what not, I was super organized but setting up was still a little stressful. But, it got done when no big issues and the night was great dispite the time limits.

ts your options.

up to the day of the wedding and always answered all questions I had. The day of the wedding and at rehearsal we had a young lady there to help. I believe her name was Rachel she was so sweet and helped us with anything that we needed to make the day go by smoother. We also had many compliments on how beautiful the venue was on the day of the wedding. I would definitely recommend Camp Loughridge to everyone.

of components of the wedding. The difficult thing is that they are very strict on time. Our florist was able to decorate the reception in time, but it would have been very difficult if we were trying to decorate on our own. Overall, so happy we went with Loughridge.

er!

she had it set on 80 degrees. A June wedding, and it was near 100 degrees outside. I had a moment that I thought I was going to pass out from the heat. Our camp host came in to ask if I was ok and if I needed anything. When I asked about the a/c, she said that it was as low as it would go. It was set on 80! Same goes for the reception area....it was excrutiating in there. My guests were leaving because they were sick because of the heat. I paid alot of money for the chapel and reception area with close to 200 guests attending. I was a little disappointed.

st so kind, honest, enthusiastic. We wanted our wedding to be very unique and she helped us make this happen by allowing us to hang lighting in the bay windows and she completely arranged for us to have beautiful fabric ceiling draping, which completely transformed the room... and so much more! They make great recommendations for other vendors (like photography, DJ), which we followed and were also VERY pleased with. You are required to use Catering Kitchen for catering at Camp Loughridge, but that was EXCELLENT as well. The prices are GREAT and very affordable, which helps when having a large reception. The food was also delicious and displayed beautifully. Everyone at Loughridge is flexible and responsive - very important in this industry!

someone to be of aid during our day. He kept things on track while I was busy forgetting everything!

30pm the day of my 6:30pm wedding and the caterer was very hard to get in touch with. She gets the job done but she is just hard to communicate with when yo have questions. The food was amazing though. Overall, everyone was 100% happy.

beautiful.

e. The chapel had an A-frame window that overlooks a lake. It is very pretty, and it made our wedding day perfect. The staff was very nice to work with, and they were willing to let us in the chapel to see it any time we wanted. The only down fall of this place is they have a time limit that is a bit inconvenient, but it was worth is to have our wedding day at this beautiful location.
