al 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!

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 re...

ception 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.

Owner

Hi, my husband and I are the owners of Hidden Lake. Our business is unique because we are the only private lake you can hold your event on in the Phoenix metro. I am an interior designer with a background in not only interiors, but also I have had 10 years in the floral and event design business. At Hidden Lake, we have a blank canvas without a lot of regulations and requirements, so if you are wanting to fully customize your event this property will give you that opportunity. We'd love to take you on a tour.
