Lake Elmo Inn Event Center

sting, met the chef, even wanted to try some other items and came back for more. They cut our 4 tiered cake for us from a different venue. It's hard to know how to navigate a wedding, because most of the time, it'll be your first go around. Cheryl and the whole team at Lake Elmo Catering know their stuff, have great staff, and have a million different dinner/hors d'oeuvre/buffet/late night snack options.

ests and they raved about how the food was the best they have ever experienced! Lake Elmo Inn was the perfect match for our daughter and her new husband’s wedding!

our guests have ever had at a wedding. The service was superb, from the taste testing with the head chef to the coordinating with Cheryl, they were both so helpful and professional. It was a pleasure working with them and they helped make the wedding a success. I would highly recommend them it was an all around wonderful experience!

as our contact, and she kept us up to date on everything. The only thing bad that I have to say is that there must of been some miscommunication. We were told that we would clean up the venue that following Sunday. We instead had to have everything cleaned before midnight on our wedding night. Otherwise it was a beautiful venue, and very nice staff.

e and then Cheryl worked with us to assure that every food need we requested was accommodated. The day of the reception, the food was outstanding and reflected everything we’d asked for. We had so many compliments on the food! We will definitely work with Lake Elmo Inn for any of our future catering needs. They were outstanding.

hanges as we worked through the details, the pricing was very reasonable and everything was completely transparent. But...the food! OMG, so good!! We had 6 passed appetizers that were amazing (sadly I was too busy having my dress bustled and I only got one of each) and the buffet dinner / carving station was outstanding. The staff was attentive, professional, flexible, and fun! We had a signature drink that the bartenders weren't familiar with and they had the best time when my husband showed them what to do to make the drink. I would highly recommend Lake Elmo Inn for any catering you might need!

Loved it!!

ion is terrible! We have asked questions and tried to set up our tasting on multiple occasions without response until we send a less-happy email. Now we have one month before our RSVPs are printed and have yet to determine what plates we are offering guests. Stay away if you can!

ake your day special. They helped to ensure coordination between all of our vendors. The food is also TO DIE FOR!!! All of our guests were very impressed. I highly recommend the Lake Elmo Inn Event Center.

ood was delicious and everyone had so much fun.

ng and made sure I was not worried. They assured me that the skies would be clear by the afternoon and they were right! It couldn't have been a more perfect day! Thanks! Plus the food is amazing as well! I got many compliments about it!

nu options and took his time to make sure everything possible. We worked directly with our own event coordinator who organized everything and made sure the day of was simply about enjoying the moment. The food was INCREDIBLE. It is not your typical wedding food when you can tell the kitchen was feeding 300 people at once. Everything tasted as if it was freshly prepared for each individual guest. EVERY GUEST commented on the food and desserts!

out of this world, but the wait staff was so warm and welcoming to all of the guests. From serving the passed appetizers, to inviting guests to the buffet, each member of the LEI team was just a delight to have with us that night. Never were we waiting for the food, or nervous that something had fallen through the cracks. LEI catering is truly an expert in their field! We also had a blast working with the staff throughout the planning process. Each person we encountered was so warm, and willing to adjust to whatever our vision was for the night. I would highly recommend LEI to any bride and groom!

out of planning your wedding. The food is delightful - we have been getting endless compliments on the food since our wedding! They are very open to any ideas you have for using the space. I really can't recommend them enough. They helped make my wedding beautiful, laid back, and everything I wanted!

it. We also did our cake through their bakery and that was delicious too!

o Inn) and is fantastic, and the chef is wonderfully flexible very willing to work with the family to determine what will be served. We had a lot of extra things that we wanted to do (a makeshift photo booth, a board game/lounge area, etc) and the managers were more than willing to make it happen. In addition, the venue has a wide range of decorations (vases, hurricanes, candles, centerpieces, etc) if you want to use them. Perhaps best of all, they took care of most of the set-up and tear down, which makes a huge difference. Not including price because it included the food, which might skew how it is compared to other places. Not including food and alcohol it would have been well under $5,000.

agement takes great care of you! Food was amazing and I had so many complements on it! Driving past the building you wouldn't expect to find such a beautiful event center inside. Elegant and Classy.

... that is what really sold us on the venue! If you want great planners and amazing food this is the venue for you. We absolutely loved it!

for our dinner guests with dietary concerns. They also made my in-laws feel special with the entrees they ordered. (Someone wanted the end cut of the prime rib). The food that was served was as delicious as the dinners we were served at the food tasting. They did a great job setting up the room. They provided some of the table decorations (mirrors and votive candles). Cheryl was wonderful to work with planning the reception and JoAnn and the waitstaff were a great help the day of the wedding. The waitstaff were continually clearing dishes from the tables. Some of our guests were familiar with the Lake Elmo Inn and were excited to attend. They were just has pleased as we were. We had a fantastic party. Worth every penny spent. The outside of the building tells you nothing about what is inside. They did just an awesome job. The bridal room was great and the bathrooms were spacious and clean. Very convenient location. If my younger daughter wanted to have her wedding there we would do it in a heartbeat. THANK YOU Lake Elmo Inn Event Center for a wonder wedding reception.

rovided by an outside vendor. The food was amazing (I did appetizers only, but there were enough to feed armies! The shrimp was delicious, the smoked salmon legendary, and people were really eating and piling it on their plates!)

venue. The staff is very helpful and did an excellent job of making sure our reception was perfect! The venue is very new and is a beautiful location. We had 200 guests and it was the perfect size for everyone to move around comfortably. I would definitely recommend checking this place out!

ate plans were created that were even better than the original idea/plan. I could not have found a better venue for the wedding. They gave us a level of service above our expectations (and their outstanding customer service was one reasons we selected
