I found Hidden Lake by my Mother-In-Law. She had heard about the events that Hidden Lake had and we promised to take a look, even though we were sure we were going to go with another location, once we arrived, and spoke with Sarah (no longer there) and we were hooked. We were told that Sarah would be our Day of Coordinator so I didn't need to get another as she would be the point of contact.
Communication was an issue with speaking with the Hidden Lake team. After Sarah left, there was some flooding (thankfully, it was resolved) but I hadn't heard from my new coordinator. I had been informed her name was Jennifer, but had little to no contact with her. Finally, I received another notice (about 60+ days from my wedding) that there was another Jennifer hired and she would be taking over as my coordinator. I reached out at 32 days till my wedding to try and reach Jennifer to schedule a final walk-through and everything. I had already started losing my faith in the venue.
It took a few days to finally get a hold of Jennifer and that's when my faith was restored in Hidden Lake. She was the one to help figure out why I wasn't receiving any communication from the previous team. And went out of her way to make sure that I was taken care of in the days leading up to the wedding.
The day of, I was running late and frazzled, but Jennifer was cool and collected. She helped get everything up and running as soon as I got there. Everything she promised me and more was done. The lake looked amazing, the chairs were the way I wanted and it was a beautiful day at the lake.
If you get the chance to work with Jennifer, you will be in good hands.
Our wedding at Hidden Lake was beautiful and everyone had a great time. It is a beautiful, large venue that can accommodate a lot of people. The venue staff were very helpful day of and make everything very smooth and special. They have lots of add-ons that make the night more special S’mores bar, coffee bar, lawn games, ect.
We were going for an outdoorsy, open and beautiful view for our wedding day. Hidden Lake did not disappoint! it was gorgeous and the staff was incredible from day 1! We worked closely with both Jennifer and Sara - both were friendly, professional and so accommodating! Sara was a blessing on the day of our wedding as she took care of everything! I showed her my vision and she made it happen! I was not approached once on my day to problem solve anything and she handled every little thing! If you want a gorgeous view, a beautiful sunset, endless possibilities for your wedding feel and an amazing staff to handle all the day of details, Hidden Lake is the only way to go! We will also be visiting them for their other events throughout the year because we fell in love with this place!
Holy cow, the Hidden Lake is the real deal when it comes to weddings and other events. They have a beautiful grounds with gorgeous sunsets. Now, it is a bit of a drive down a dirt road to get here - but WHO CARES? ITS WORTH EVERY PENNY.
Sara and Jenn are two of the most thoughtful people here. They really go the extra mile to figure things out and make sure your event run smoothly. Did I mention that they are super chill people? That seriously helps. You need them on your team! I can't recommend them enough for your wedding.
Hidden Lake was absolutely beautiful, and the views definitely impressed. The owners were great and easy to get in contact with. Sara, the day of coordinator, was amazing! She made everything go off without a hitch. She handled everything so well from the decorations to last minute issues with my other vendors. I had no clue anything was going on. Our wedding was absolutely perfect. Everyone was so accommodating and always had great ideas and tips. I could not recommend a better place to get married.
Hidden Lake is a hidden oasis in the desert with a mountain backdrop. The lake is gorgeous and we rented a boat for sunset pictures. There is space for the ceremony and the reception all in one area which made things easy for our guests. The reception area was perfect for cocktail hour and dinner and dancing. There are lights and fires to keep the party going after sunset. The owners are flexible and they were very accommodating of our needs. The day of coordinator was helpful to keep things running smoothly throughout the day and alleviate the stress from our plate so we could enjoy ourselves. We would definitely recommend Hidden Lake to anyone getting married who wants a unique and naturally gorgeous landscape at an affordable price.
This venue is amazing. I had my wedding there on December 1st, 2018. It was so beautiful, you can’t beat the view you get at this venue. Jennifer and her crew are amazing to work with as well, and help make the day perfect. I could not recommend a better place to have your event.
Lovely venue in buckeye! They are truly optimizing the space. The flow from the ceremony on the peninsula, to cocktail hour, and on to the reception, everything was on point. Jennifer and her team are there to help with your every need! From a coordinator perspective, they were such a joy to work with!
If you are looking for those lovely Arizona sunsets, you've found the right venue! Absolutely the most sunning photo backdrop!
If you are looking for natural beauty, this venue needs absolutely nothing! The sunset, the clean lake and multiple areas to have the ceremony. Jennifer made all my requests a reality. The vendors were even in awe when they arrived. Hidden Lake made my wedding spectacular!!!
