We had an absolutely wonderful experience hosting our wedding this past July at Lake Lawn Resort. From the stunning venue to the exceptional service, everything exceeded our expectations. The entire team was professional, attentive, and dedicated to making our day unforgettable. A huge part of what made our experience so incredible was our wedding coordinator, Jaci.
Jaci was a dream to work with from start to finish. She was incredibly responsive to all my emails and questions leading up to the big day, ensuring every detail was addressed. Her professionalism and expertise made the planning process seamless. On the wedding day itself, Jaci went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Thanks to her, we were able to fully enjoy every moment of our special day without a single worry.
If you’re considering Lake Lawn Resort for your wedding, we highly recommend it—and especially working with Jaci. She’s truly amazing and made our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be and all that much more! ❤️

Overall, Lake Lawn was exactly what we wanted. The only complaint I have is getting responses throughout our planning process. I did receive a response within a few days, but when it’s a month before the big day and I don’t hear back within 3 days, I got anxious.
Otherwise, everyone and everything was amazing! The most minor details that I wanted changed or fixed at the last minute were done without hesitation or complaint.
I found out after the fact that our waiters were very short staffed due to call ins, but it worked out! It gave us time to interact with all our guests and the wait staff were so kind and caring, even after working a double shift! I don’t remember the gentleman’s name, but the older Hispanic man was amazing and kept checking in with the head table if anyone needed anything! And Kristine omg!! (She said not to tell anyone, but) she saw me and said she wanted to show me off to the chefs and I’m so glad! I felt so special in that moment and I was glad to be able to take a moment to thank the amazing kitchen staff for our amazing food! Whenever Kristine saw me, she helped hold doors open throughout the resort and would ask if i needed anything at all-even offering to help bustle my dress!
Overall, I can’t say enough good things about the staff, even when they had some issues come up, they handled it with ease.
Any questions?

Danielle and the entire staff and Lake Lawn Resort are truly outstanding! Every person we worked with was friendly and helpful. Lake Lawn was very accommodating to every request we had during the wedding planning process. The event was handled flawlessly!! It was an added bonus to have ceremony, reception, and room block all at the same location. We highly recommend this wedding venue!!

We loved our experience at Lake Lawn Resort for our wedding this past August 2024. We worked with Jaci Jesionowski as our wedding and special events manager, and she was absolutely phenomenal to work with. From the first tour we ever received from Jaci, to the day of our wedding, Jaci showed up with a warm, welcoming and incredibly professional mindset. She was incredibly involved throughout our entire wedding planning process, and was extremely responsive and receptive to all our questions we had through out while planning. We were married Lakeside, underneath a tent rental from an external vendor, and Jaci helped ensure a smooth installation of our tent - as well as solid communication with our other vendors involved day of (planners, floral, DJ, and photo). Jaci was extremely gracious of her time, especially with me, and was always there to lend an ear to my then fiance and I, as we bounced ideas off of her - she even helped us make a last minute ceremony location switch shortly before the wedding. Our guests boasted and loved our whole weekend experience, which included a mini-golf outing for our bridal party, a Rehearsal Dinner Sunset Cruise aboard the Lake Queen boat, Welcome drinks in the courtyard terrace, and of course our wedding day. Guests loved the atmosphere and amenities Lake Lawn had to offer, and we had several of our guests note they can't wait to go back to establish more memories there. Jaci - we thank you for the bottom of our hearts for helping shape our dream day - and being such an amazing support throughout the whole process. Our love and gratitude - Grace & Joe Misulonas

My daughter had her wedding at Lake Lawn Resort on October 4, 2024. It was a beautiful 70 degree day. The ceremony was outside at Promise Point right on the lake. With the flowers that Lake Lawn provided hanging on the trellis plus all the white mums surrounding and the lake glistening, it was breathtaking! We added fall flowers and pumpkins along the aisles, the guests were speechless.
We then walked right over to our outside cocktail hour at Lake Terrace with hot and delicious hors d’oeuvre’s. The guests thought they were so good!
After the cocktail hour we walked right into the building next to us for the reception in The Lake Lawn Room. The decorations and flowers were perfect just how we wanted everything. Our wedding specialist Jaci decorated the whole thing! We worried about nothing!
We had the wedding buffet which was huge! There were carving stations and everything was hot and delicious. Our guests were so surprised at how many different foods there were to pick from and how delicious everything was! If you do get the buffet I just have to say the tasting does not do the actual buffet justice!
If you’re lucky enough to get Jaclyn Jesionowski as your wedding specialist, your day will be perfect. Jaci is a kind, caring person and a great communicator. She made sure our timeline went exactly as planned and all aspects of my daughter’s wedding day ran smoothly from the ceremony to the reception. All the wedding details went just as planned. I’m still in awe of how Jaci did it all with such ease? She must really love her job and it shows!
If you want a wedding that you don’t have to worry that things will go wrong, along with a gorgeous venue that will make your guests envious of the beauty then book your wedding at Lake Lawn Resort! You won’t be disappointed!! By the way our guests are still talking about how our wedding was the BEST wedding they’ve ever been too!!!

Jaclyn from lake lawn went above and beyond to ensure that everything went perfectly on our special day. She was very responsive, knowledgeable, and put all my worries at ease. Not one thing went wrong on our wedding day and I believe it’s because I had the best wedding coordinator at lake lawn.

Our wedding venue was Lake Lawn Resort! We recently got married in June of 2024! It was the most beautiful wedding weekend! Our ceremony was outdoors, followed by our reception in the Wisconsin Room! We had a more intimate wedding with around 75 guests! Lake Lawn serves the best food and drinks along with our stay that included the most amazing amenities! Some guests stayed at Lakewood Lodge and some on the other side of the resort. Lake Lawn has restaurants, bars, pools and an arcade for kids! We also got to experience their 4th of July celebration of fireworks on the water! On top of that, our wedding coordinator went above and beyond! Danielle Lattanzio was my go to person for all my wedding needs!! & my emails late at night :)
I suggest Lake Lawn Resort as your wedding venue! You will not be disappointed!

Abby Bloom was our Wedding Planner/coordinator
Just wanted to let you know that everything went great for the wedding.
It was really great that the our out of state guests could get in early and us also.
You really do have a great operation there.
I was asked by a lot of people why they chose Lake Lawn and I told them about everything being there...never having to leave.
The guys at the golf course were very accommodating considering we paid for 18 holes and were only able to play 9 due to timing or rain.
It was really funny, at the bar at 1:30 AM I spilled 1/3 of a drink, I asked for a towel and cleaned it up and they gave me a new drink. I spilled it, They didn't owe me anything but they gave me a replacement anyway.
Everything was perfect.

Lake Lawn is the absolute perfect place to tie the knot! My husband and I got married here in July and everything was amazing. Jaci was incredible to work with, extremely responsive and helpful, and made the wedding planning process so much easier. Come the day of our wedding we were so comfortable knowing that Jaci was coordinating it and she would do all she can to make sure everything is perfect. All of our guests raved about the food and the beauty of the venue. We had a lot of out of state guests who stayed the whole weekend at the resort which they all really enjoyed. Everyone at the resort is extremely helpful and friendly. We unfortunately had our welcome dinner have to get moved inside due to weather, but they had a new room set up perfectly within 20 minutes with plenty of time to spare before it started. Everything was seamless the day of the wedding. Jaci even hooked us up with a local firework company who shot off fireworks during our reception. My husband and I continuously talk about how we want to relive that day and how perfect it was!! We cannot recommend Lake Lawn and Jaci enough!!

Jaci at Lake Lawn was the best venue coordinator I could ask for my wedding! She’s such an uplifting person and really takes her job seriously. She made sure that everything was as perfect as it could be. She really has an eye for detail to what the bride and groom wants and makes sure their vision comes true. Communication was never an issue with Jaci. That is very valuable in this industry!! You can tell she truly has a heart for her work.
Lake Lawn Resort as a whole was just amazing!! The spa is simply the best and everyone there were very knowledgeable and welcoming. The 2 restaurants on property were also great and my guests really enjoyed being able to grab a quick bite WITHOUT having to go outside in the cold. BIG WIN!!

It's impossible to put into words how wonderful our experience was at Lake Lawn. Outside of the spectacular setting, Jaci was the biggest reason we felt right at home and completely taken care of, from our first visit all the way through our wedding day. Jaci was incredibly responsive and accommodating throughout the entire planning process. Knowing she had so many weddings throughout the year, she still managed to make me feel like the most important client and event! She worked so well with all of our vendors and our coordinator Jenna from Lakeside Bride. Everything went off without a hitch.
All of our wedding festivities took place on-site, from the rehearsal dinner, to the ceremony and reception, which just made for an easy time all around. We booked the Wisconsin Room for bridesmaids to get ready, and also rented the Lake House for the groomsmen and photos. Still so glad we had both.
Overall, people had such a great time, some guests who had never been to LL have since brought their families for getaways and gatherings. That says so much. Lake Lawn is such a special place, and it really showed off during our wedding weekend. I can't recommend it enough!

My husband and I fell in love the Lake Lawn Resort the moment we toured it for our wedding. The atmosphere and aesthetic of the resort was exactly what we we were looking for when it came to our wedding venue. Jaci made our whole wedding planning experience seamless from start to finish. She was very responsive in her emails and explained all of our options with the ideas we had for our big day! During the wedding weekend, I couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator! She kept things running smoothly and continually checked on us. The night of our wedding there was a tornado warning so all of your guests needed to go to the basement. The lake lawn staff and specifically Jaci made sure this didn’t impact the joy of our night. They made all the necessary accommodations to make our wedding a night I will never forget!

Book your wedding here! The whole weekend went off without a hitch. It started with a last minute lunch booking at The Lookout Bar and Grill which is on site. Even though our lunch plans came together last minute and our group was very large, the staff there was very accommodating. We then had our rehearsal followed by dinner in the private room at the 1878 On The Lake restaurant. The food was delicious and the bartender at our own bar set up was lovely. Our guests were very pleased. We then had a lakeside fire pit rented for anyone who was in town Friday night to come hang out at. Everyone really like this and enjoyed themselves. As for our wedding day, we have no complaints at all. The ceremony was lakeside and Jaclyn, our wedding planner there, ensured everyone was where they needed to be and when. The outdoor cocktail hour was perfect. Our reception room was exactly how I had pictured/planned it to be. Again, Jaclyn, made sure everything that I had turned in to her was set out and made to look how I had planned. Throughout the entire planning process she was incredibly helpful. Since our wedding, we’ve had many guests compliment us, the staff there, the venue and overall setting of everything. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning a wedding.

Pam & her team helped us host the wedding of our dreams this past October! My husband and I knew we wanted to have an outdoor ceremony & reception- "Promise Point" and the tent reception site were the perfect locations to host our party of 200 people. Our family and friends continue to compliment us on the beautiful venue and delicious food from our day. The lake lawn staff were fantastic to work with- from Pam, to the bartenders, and wait staff, and even the staff of "The Lookout" bar on site where we moved for a little after party. The communication with Pam ahead of the event was seamless, and she was so helpful with inquires from us or my mother in law. By the time our wedding day rolled around, I was so calm and confident everything would go perfectly, which it did, thanks to Pam & the team at Lake Lawn! Highly recommend!

Book your wedding at Lake Lawn Resort now! You won’t regret it. I don’t even know where to start. From the time you start working with the wedding specialist until after your wedding, you will receive white glove service and the team is as friendly as they come. My husband and I had so much fun planning our wedding with our wedding specialist, Pam. There wasn’t a question she didn’t answer and she helped us navigate through the whole process with ease. I was so impressed with her knowledge, organization, assistance and friendliness. I’m a project manager, so I had high expectations and she absolutely exceeded them. You can tell she’s found her dream job because she can handle anything thrown at her and with grace. She helped us through every step of the process before, during and after the wedding. Aside from our amazing wedding specialist, the resort is gorgeous! It is right on the water and it offers a few restaurants and pools and even has a cute coffee/snack/ice cream shop. They also have several small areas with comfy chairs and couches to sit and hang out. And they have a gorgeous front lobby that is always decorated for the season. We had our wedding ceremony and reception on-site and we wouldn’t have done it any other way. It was so nice to get married on the water and be able to walk straight to our reception. Our guests all raved about the food! You will not be disappointed. We had over 120 guests and they still managed to make the best salmon and potato salad I’ve ever had and their cupcakes are to die for! My husband I can’t wait to return every year for our anniversary. We are so lucky to have found this gem. Thank you so much for making our dreams come true, Pam and Lake Lawn Resort!

She never hesitated to answer an email or phone call to help with all the details. I know the weather was not in their control but we had the most perfect day for the ceremony and outdoor cocktail hour. It started raining the last 15 minutes and Pam made sure we didn't lose any party vibes going into the reception. Highly recommend!

Lake Lawn Resort and Spa is the perfect lakefront wedding venue! We toured all the Lake Geneva wedding venues and Lake Lawn's waterfront ceremony sites on Lake Delavan far exceed what the Lake Geneva resorts have to offer. We started our weekend with a fun & unique rehearsal dinner aboard the Lake Lawn Queen, followed by a private lakefront bonfire for our guests. The morning of the wedding was spent in the relaxing spa with fantastic service & wonderful hair & makeup for the entire wedding party. Our lakefront ceremony was beautiful, and we could relax in the knowledge that our indoor ceremony room was equally beautiful in case of rain. Our banquet room overlooked the water, food and service was fantastic! We ended our weekend with a beautiful brunch in another room overlooking the lake. Pam was very knowledgeable and so easy to work with, her team was top notch! Our family & friends absolutely loved the weekend spent at Lake Lawn and we all cannot wait to return. You will never regret selecting Lake Lawn Resort for you wedding, it was everything we dreamed of and so much more.

Lake Lawn was the first place my fiance and I visited when searching for venues and I knew it was where I wanted to get married. I wanted my family and friends to have someplace to stay over the weekend and make it feel small and personal. I also loved the feel of the calm lake, compared to Lake Geneva. Pam, our coordinator helped to make our day go smoothly. I wrote her many, many emails all to which she replied happily. I can't wait to go back and visit again to celebrate anniversaries.

Our wedding at Lake Lawn was PERFECT! Jaci was an absolute joy to work with for all of the wedding planning process. She answered all my questions, was super quick to respond, kind, and very knowledgeable. Everything was laid out in such a smooth process, which made the whole thing very stress-free. The rest of the staff at Lake Lawn was also phenomenal from the wait staff at our reception to the other members of the banquet/event staff. Everyone was available and so helpful if we needed something. The place was clean and well-maintained, the lake is gorgeous, and all the communication was so easy.
If you need hair or makeup done, the Calladora Spa is fantastic! Myself (the bride), my bridesmaids, my mom, mother-in-law, and grandma all got our makeup done and everyone looked beautiful! My trial was easy to schedule, and the makeup artist I worked with was super sweet, talented, and made sure I liked everything at every step of the process.

Lake Lawn was the perfect destination and their staff was punctual, professional, and very considerate of our desires. We had the absolute dream wedding. We set out to make it a massive reunion and love fest with our family and friends and the vision could not have unfolded better!
Pam Linker, our wedding coordinator, was a joy to work with and kept us ahead of wedding planning items. We also hired, Sara Sekeres, as our day-of-coordinator. She kept us worry-free for the whole weekend and has a long history of working weddings on the property.
Lake Lawn's lodging and amenities made hosting easy for the young and old. Our bride and groom suite was perfect and located in near proximity to family rooms and the lake house - a nice touch. I highly recommend renting the Lake House on the south side of the property. This became a great hosting space over the weekend and can sleep a big group to keep cost down.

Lake Lawn Resort brought their “A” game!
If you are planning a wedding in the Delavan/Lake Geneva area, Lake Lawn Resort should definitely be on your list of venues to visit. Our daughter's event was a three day affair. Friday was a Welcome to the Lake party, Saturday, the wedding and Sunday, a farewell breakfast for our family and friends. In the Geneva Lakes area, there are many venues to choose from to host a wedding. I am so glad that we chose Lake Lawn. From the first tour a year ago to our departure on Sunday after the wedding, we can honestly say that this was the perfect venue to host a wedding. Our guest list included 200 guests so it was a big group to plan for. While I have no doubt that all the wedding coordinators at LL are amazing, we were lucky to have Jaci J. as our coordinator. When I say that no detail was left to chance, I absolutely mean it. Jaci, her team, and the entire staff at LL made sure that our event went off without a single problem. When rain threatened the Friday party, she made sure that we could change last minute to a space on the grounds that worked out even better than the original plan. The wedding packages offered had all different price points for any budget. Also, there were so many items included in the packages that there was no need to add things to enhance the wedding. The food was delicious and it was served warm and beautifully presented. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the amazing staff at Lake Lawn. From the servers, the bartenders, the hotel front desk staff, our transportation drivers, to every associate we encountered during the weekend, we couldn’t have asked for any more. The grounds are beautiful and Lake Delavan was an amazing backdrop for the ceremony and cocktail hour. So happy that Lake Lawn was our choice for a wonderful wedding and a lifetime of memories!

We used Lake Lawn for our entire wedding weekend including our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception. I appreciated that they answered all of my questions promptly via email and all the drtails of our contract were laid out in an understandable way. They provided a backup ceremony space in case of inclement weather at no extra cost and we ended up using it. Dinner service and the food was excellent. I also used the spa for hair and makeup for the entire bridal party and they did a great job, too. There were many great spots for taking pictures, too.
We also used the golf course and boat rentals they had onsite. Those were well worth our time.
Service at the restaurants was slow and some staff had trouble with time management but overall it didn’t dampen our experience.

I have always dreamed of being a lakeside bride, especially on Delavan Lake. I had been coming up there since I was in elementary school and when I was deciding where to get married, Lake Lawn was the only choice. Jaci and her team made our whole weekend amazing. She answered every email prior to our wedding date, took countless phone calls from me, the groom and my mother, and was always extremely positive. I am so lucky that Jaci was our coordinator. I will brag about my lakeside wedding forever and everything wonderful lake lawn did for us!

Everyone tells you to expect the unexpected on your wedding day, and boy were they right: just as our wedding party was lining up to make our "grand entrance" for the reception, my older brother had a seizure. Luckily for us, it turns out that the staff at Lake Lawn Resort is comprised of some of the most professional, quick-thinking, and compassionate people we've ever come across. Not only were they terrific in getting medical personnel on site as quickly as possible and making sure he was in good hands on his way to the hospital, but once my sister-in-law collected herself and realized she was a bit too tipsy to drive and be with him, the resort's DIRECTOR OF FINANCE volunteered to take her. I'm an accountant. This is not in the job description. His generosity still makes me tear up.
Perhaps the most reassuring thing, though, was having the resort's event manager, Jaci, at our side throughout. We'd grown to trust Jaci because of her responsiveness, transparency, bubbly demeanor, and attention to detail, but I can't stress enough how much easier it was to think clearly and act decisively with her around. I just felt in my gut that with Jaci in charge, my brother was going to be ok, and it freed me and my future husband to spend our time comforting the people who really needed it: my mom, my sister-in-law, and above all my niece, the 12-year-old girl who had just had the scare of a lifetime.
The reception got back on track. The space was beautiful, the food was excellent, and the dance floor was packed all night. Most importantly, my brother was back to his old self by the next morning.
Did I mention that the ceremony was lovely as well? We had the reception in the Lake Lawn Room, but the ceremony itself was out on the Enchanted Shore (with about 105 guests present). It was a bit chilly, but we worked out a plan with Jaci to keep our guests comfortable, and it was sooooo worth it. Just a gorgeous place to tie the knot.
One last thing to consider: try booking the Lake House on the property if you want to entertain guests the night before or the morning after. We had a Friday night party and Sunday beer/mimosas, and having everything in the Lake House made for a great time without needlessly complicating things.
Bottom line: this place and these people are fantastic. And if you get Jaci as your event manager, you've hit the jackpot.

We loved Lake Lawn and would highly recommend it to other couples considering it. Pam was our coordinator and she was there for every tiny detail from handling our vendors to making sure lights didn't flicker in our reception room. Her communication and expertise was impeccable. She was flexible willing to make my every whim happen. Our guests got great deals on their rooms with the block. The bridesmaids and the moms did manicures and pedicures at the Calladora Spa and had a great time. I received the best manicure I have ever gotten from the Calladora Spa, absolute perfection. Pam led our rehearsal and was very helpful for our officiant who was doing his first wedding. Lake Lawn had a beautiful fall display we did all of our photos in front of. The bridal suite had two bathrooms which was perfect for my bridal party to have their hair and makeup done in. Lake Lawn delivered gift bags we made to all of the guests. We did the Gold Package and had planned on the Enchanted Shore for the ceremony and the terrace for cocktail hour. The weather was, unfortunately, very iffy and we were able to move everything indoors just in time. Our ceremony started fifteen minutes late but everybody made it to where they were supposed to be.
We did not have a DJ and were able to work with the on sight audio specialists to bring in speakers and they even rushed to our aid when we couldn't get our music to play.
The best thing about Lake Lawn was, for sure, the food. Rarely do people walk away from a wedding talking about the food but the parmesan crusted chicken and filet were absolutely on point. Guests made many mentions to us about how amazing everything was.
I loved that this venue could be dressed up our dressed down depending on the wedding you wanted. You could spend alot of money or a little money depending on the package you go for. It had gorgeous lake views without the crowding that Lake Geneva has.
I would have my wedding all over again, at Lake Lawn, if I could. If you have the chance to get married here, just do it.

Lake Lawn was AMAZING!!!! We were supposed to have our wedding there in July of 2020 but had to postpone due to Covid19. We rescheduled for September of 2021 and they made it so EASY! Worked with both Pam and Jaci, both were wonderful! So was Christine and all of the ladies at the Spa.
It was so nice to have EVERYTHING in one place. My guests loved it and so did I!

We just had our wedding at Lake Lawn on October 16th of this year, and it was nothing short of amazing! First of all, our coordinator, Jaci, made the planning so incredibly easy and I appreciated her organization- this was super helpful for my control-freak mind that comes from me being a teacher lol. But truly, she was fantastic and made everything run so great! Also- the food is amazing!!! We got SO many compliments from our guests on how fantastic the food was, especially the chicken!!! Looking back on our day and seeing some of our photos, I have zero doubts in my mind on why we picked Lake Lawn for our ceremony and reception. They were fantastic!!

Best day ever!! Lake Lawn Resort was our dream wedding venue. Right after we went to see the venue and met with the staff we knew that was where we wanted to get married. All of the staff were a pleasure to work with and did an amazing job of making our wedding exactly how we always imagined it. Pam went above and beyond answering countless emails, organizing our rehearsal dinner, welcome bonfire, wedding ceremony AND reception all flawlessly. We have had people reaching out non stop since our day complimenting on how beautiful it turned out and how incredible the food was. We owe it all to LLR! I can truly say there was not one moment where we felt ANY stress. We are so beyond happy with how our day turned out and wished we could redo it the exact same way every single year. Thank you thank you thank you Lake Lawn.

My husband and I cannot say enough amazing things about Lake Lawn and our coordinator, Pam! From planning to execution everything was so flawless. We had the most amazing fall wedding lakeside. Having rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception in one place was KEY for us and our guests. Not only did we save money on transportation, it was so much less stressful day of! Plus there are so many amazing spots to choose from at the resort. Pam was incredibly helpful and a great support through out the process and so kind and sweet to work with! She even got our littles down the aisle when they were nervous! Cocktail hour was a blast and the food was great!! I cannot recommend this spot enough and we cannot wait to go back and celebrate anniversaries!

Lake Lawn was the absolute perfect spot for our wedding weekend! We planned through the pandemic, went through multiple date changes, endless questions on logistics, multiple meal options, several last minute cancellations, and a mid-rehearsal barbecue location change due to a flash rainstorm. At the end of the day, we had the perfect event with everything coming together seamlessly.
The lakeside ceremony location was so beautiful and peaceful - even in the middle of the resort it felt like a space just for us. The reception was the perfect mix of great food, a gorgeous space, and dancing until we couldn't stand.
Everyone from the front desk working with a lot of out of town guests with unique needs and last minute requests to the spa to the event staff moving tables and chairs on short notice to the bartenders dealing with our rowdy families and friends, everyone at Lake Lawn was warm and helpful throughout the weekend.
The one constant through the process was our Lake Lawn event coordinator Jaci. She was so accommodating to us, both sets of parents, and all of our guests with unique situations. She had such a clear handle on what we wanted our weekend because she took so much time getting to know us at the start of the process and learn our likes and dislikes to anticipate our questions before we asked them. Not that we ever need to plan another wedding but if we had to, Lake Lawn would be the only place we would want to do it.

We actually decided to pick a different wedding venue then Lake Lawn due to location but needed to write a review because of the amazing experience we had with Jaci, the wedding coordinator. One of MAIN reasons we loved Lake Lawn so much was because of the chance to work with Jaci. She made everything less stressful, listened to how we wanted to make our day unique and truly cared about us as a couple. She has a gift for what she does and made us feel like we were the only ones she was working with. She walked us through the whole process and was so responsive and professional. We were both sad when we chose our venue because Jaci would not be involved in our special day. We cannot thank Jaci enough for her help and for the experience.

Lake Lawn is perfect for weddings! The space is beautiful, the food is delicious, the staff is super kind, caring, and well prepared. Their package saved us so much time. They took care of the banquet, bar, venues, setup of both ceremony site and reception, rehearsal, and rehearsal dinner. We had our ceremony by the lake at the Enchanted Shore, one of their beautiful ceremony site. Our reception was at the Geneva Club, which had floor length windows and even having the weather safety of a indoor reception room, ac and build in bar and fireplace, it still gave us a very nice view of the lake, sky and garden. Jaclyn, our Event Manager, took all the requests and walked us through all the steps of our event, giving us the safety that everything would happened as planned and so it was. Their professionalism made everything run smoothly, stress free and beautiful.

Lake Lawn is the perfect venue for a wedding! We couldn't have had a more wonderful experience working with the entire staff at Lake Lawn in making our wedding day a fabulous weekend with all of our family and friends! We had our rehearsal dinner on the Lake Lawn Queen with some of our guests and family. The food and cruise were fabulous! Everyone couldn't stop raving about what a great experience and the food. On the day of the wedding the staff at Lake Lawn made everything (and I mean everything) easy and seamless! They were a dream to work with and were on every detail in making it a fun and worriless day! I wish we could do it all again. Thank you, thank you, thank you to the Lake Lawn staff! You made our weekend absolutely perfect!

I seriously cannot rave enough about our experience at Lake Lawn Resort!! We had everything at the resort -- our ceremony and reception, my wedding party got our hair and makeup done at the Calladora Spa, and they had enough rooms to accommodate our 150+ guests. It was so nice to have everything in one spot, and it made coordination a breeze.
When we booked Lake Lawn, they made our wedding planning process so easy by giving us with a huge list of their preferred vendors. We're from out of town (Chicago), so having that preferred vendors list saved me a ton of time and a ton of searching to find vendors in the area. And the vendors we did choose were stellar!
Speaking of coordination, Lake Lawn provided us with a wedding specialist, Pam Linker. She was AMAZING to work with! Very patient and timely in answering our questions (and trust me when I say we had a TON), and she provided us with some suggestions of what other couples had done at the resort in the past. She was with us through everything including the rehearsal, ceremony, and reception, and her calming presence was a huge component of why our wedding day was absolutely perfect. I felt a lot better knowing that she was there to handle any last-minute issues and questions so I could focus on the day ahead. We love you, Pam!!
The food and catering staff is wonderful as well! We had quite a few guests with dietary restrictions (gluten-free, dairy-free, both gluten- and dairy-free, and vegan), and the catering staff was able to accommodate them all. The servers at the reception itself were mindful of these restrictions as well and followed our tags to the letter. Our guests were thrilled, and they keep telling us how delicious the food was!
Overall, our experience with Lake Lawn Resort for our wedding was extremely positive, and if I could give them 10 stars I would! If you're looking for a wedding venue that has everything in one spot, a wedding specialist who's an absolute rockstar, and food that your guests will devour, look no further than Lake Lawn.
Last note: For those of you in Chicago, Lake Lawn is about a 90-minute drive from the city. A lot of our guests were from Chicago as well, and they were able to make the drive easily after work for our 5:00 ceremony on a Friday. Just one more bonus of Lake Lawn!

We LOVED working with Pam at Lake Lawn for our wedding reception! We knew we wanted a church ceremony and an outdoor cocktail party and reception, and were thrilled to be able to have our cocktail hour and reception on Lake Lawn's "Lakefront Lawn" - the outdoor lawn along Delavan Lake (where I, the bride, grew up). Pam was organized, compassionate, and fun to work with from start to finish. Our guests raved about the location - it was wonderful to have the lawn and the lake as a backdrop, and we had nice enough weather that many guests stood outside the tent to chat with other guests and take in the beautiful evening. We also had guests rave about the food! Lake Lawn's recommended DJ, photography, bakery, and floral vendors also ended up being amazing all the way around for us. As someone who grew up in Delavan but now lives in Ohio, what a treat it was to celebrate our marriage at Lake Lawn, which so perfectly showcased/showed off my hometown to the many out-of-town guests we had, and helped remind the in-town guests how grateful they are to live where they do!
Thank you, Pam and the team at Lake Lawn for making our wedding perfectly US! We can't wait to keep coming back to Lake Lawn for years to come and reminiscing on our perfect wedding night there! If you're looking to get married in the Delavan/Lake Geneva area, can't recommend Lake Lawn enough!

Highly recommend for a wedding venue! My wedding coordinator, Jaclyn, caught my eye from the beginning by accommodating my needs and she continued to accommodate from beginning to end! She is amazing- cannot stress enough how much she helped with the planning process. From the contract to the food tasting, to the guest list and every question or doubt I had- she was on top of it and extremely efficient and got back to me right away. We planned to have our reception outside and when it started raining during the cocktail hour she worked her magic and moved everything inside, even upgraded our area to accommodate my guests. I showed up after the ceremony not knowing what to expect because of the rain and it was all done and set up. I got so many compliments on the food, the decor, the music, everything! We were happy Jaci talked us into keeping it inside because otherwise I think people would have left early. Everyone had a great time, the dance floor was packed all night and it was the perfect night. Super satisfied with Jaclyn and Lake Lawn!

My husband and I were married at Lake Lawn in June, and we cannot recommend the venue or the staff enough! We had the pleasure of working with Jaci to plan our event. Jaci went above and beyond the normal responsibilities of a venue coordinator. She was incredibly organized and a great communicator. She paid attention to every small detail, from making sure the guests had water at the ceremony to having the fire pits lit by the lake so our guests could roast s’mores at the end of the night. Jaci took all the stress out of the day, and we are so thankful we had the chance to work with her! Jaci helped us plan a full weekend of events for our friends and family. We started the weekend with Welcome Cocktails at the Courtyard Garden. Then, we had our ceremony at Promise Point and the reception was held outside on the lawn overlooking the lake. The food for our event was AMAZING! Tacos, BBQ, Mac N Cheese Bar…. the list goes on...our guests are still telling us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding! To end the night, our guests danced the night away under string lights in front of the lake. It was a night we will never forget!

Great venue, with great employees! Everyone at Lake Lawn made our day feel special (even when they had multiple other weddings the same weekend!). We originally signed our contract back in 2018, and then postponed due to COVID. Lake Lawn was a BREEZE to work with through our postponement. We heard horror stories about brides losing money on contracts, or being charged more at other venues in Illinois and Wisconsin. But Lake Lawn was the complete opposite. They graciously helped us find a new wedding date, and honored their original 2018 pricing, even in 2021. We also had a switch in coordinators throughout the process, and Pam (our new coordinator) made sure we were comfortable and taken care of. We truly enjoyed working with Pam and the day of she was beyond amazing, making sure every detail was perfect. If you get Pam, know that you are in amazing hands! She is very experienced, hardworking, and all around a great person.
Lake Lawn also updated and remodeled the wedding reception rooms during COVID. They are gorgeous looking! New carpet and other updates make the reception rooms even better than they were before. If you haven't seen them yet, you must go!
We truly loved having our wedding here, and felt that everything we asked for and wanted became reality!

I had my dream wedding this past weekend. I knew i had always wanted to get married here- growing up on this lake as a little girl. We got married along the lake and had our wedding on the lawns of lake lawn! It was PERFECT. Jaci was SO amazing to work with. Our day was perfect because she made it happen! She was so friendly, so punctual & communicative, and had every single detail planned out for us. I had a vision and it all came together because of her! I could not recommend this venue & jaci as a wedding coordinator enough! I am so incredibly happy with how everything turned out! If you ever had the chance to get married here- do it!

Our wedding at Lake Lawn was absolutely perfect. We booked the venue almost a year prior to our wedding date. Leading up to the day, I envisioned our ceremony next to the lake. Unfortunately, the weather had different plans. We were forced to have an indoor wedding (we used the Wisconsin room which made for a beautiful view of the lake). This change was heartbreaking but Jaci (catering manager) and Robert came through with last minute changes to make our indoor ceremony magical (e.g. adjusted cocktail hour backup room, accommodated the request for the upgraded chairs used for the indoor ceremony). They were both present during the ceremony to provide instruction to the wedding party. I also felt that Jaci advocated for me (the bride) and what I wanted when others voiced opinions on how to do things.
The reception was also perfect. Jaci was so accommodating in last minute changes (I had to reduce the table count and add/remove guests in the final hour). The food was amazing! We had several guests say this was the best food they ever had at a wedding. Our guests also loved the property. I would recommend Lake Lawn over and over again.

My daughter was recently married at Lake Lawn Resort. I can see why it gets so many awards for wedding venues. We decided on the Lake Geneva area as all our guests would need to travel. We visited all the properties in the area but there is something about Lake Lawn that captures your heart. We have been taking our kids there since they were little, so was not surprised that Lake Lawn Resort was her venue choice. First, and most importantly, is the venue contact/coordinator. We worked with Jaci. She is phenomenal to work with. As a first time MOB, she was so informative, no matter how silly my questions were. She is professional, yet your friend. She kept my daughter on track every step of the way through the final couple of months. The rest of the staff at the resort were wonderful...from the golf shop to the kitchen/serving staff to the spa staff. We had a Thursday night welcome bonfire with s'mores and a bar. Friday was a men's golf outing on-site at Majestic Oaks (while the girls went to Popeye's in Lake Geneva). Our rehearsal dinner/after rehearsal dinner party was off-site but even then, the staff was wonderful ensuring guests were routed to the bus I had hired to make multiple trips. We all used the Calladora Spa for various services and were so pleased with our experience. Our ceremony was on the lake at Enchanted Shores. We chose not to have any arches, etc. and simply used the lake as the background. Breathtaking! Our cocktail hour was at the Lakeview Terrace with the reception in Queens Table/Lake Lawn Room, all of them overlook the lake. The food was also very good. If I had to do it over again, I would not change a thing! It was a bride's dream wedding!

Where do I start? We started planning our wedding about a year ago. We heard of this venue from a coworker of mine, and the annual bridal show took place that weekend.
We attended the bridal show, fell in love with the spaces, and came back for a tour/wedding consultation.
Our coordinator had ended her employment when COVID began, and Jacqui picked us up very quickly. Jacqui was amazing in every way possible. She ensured that all of our wants and needs were met, down the very small details.
When the rehearsal day arrived, I pulled up in my truck, and Jacqui took all of the decorations and set EVERYTHING up for us, just how we had imagined.
Our wedding day came and went so fast. The day flew by but Jacqui and her team ensured that everything went perfectly, which it did, absolutely perfect.
I really can’t give enough praise or credit to the venue, our coordinator, even the wait/bar staff. If you’re looking for an amazing venue, and for your day to be everything you imagined, lake lawn is the venue! Hands down!

I am so grateful that we chose to have our wedding at Lake Lawn Resort. Having a wedding during a pandemic has not been easy, but we got so lucky that we had such a great and accommodating venue. We initially chose this venue because the ceremony, reception, and lodging could all be in one place. (Who doesn't want that?!) But we got to work with Jaci at LLR and she was absolutely AMAZING. She answered all of my million questions, she was on top of all of my changes, she was definitely our go to girl and made everything run so smoothly the day of the wedding. I cannot say enough great things about Jaci. We also had our rehearsal dinner at LLR and for both the rehearsal dinner and reception dinner, the food was outstanding! We had guests say that it was the best wedding food they'd ever have! LLR also recently updated their whole event spaces with new flooring, carpet, paint, light fixtures, chairs, etc. and it is SO beautiful! If you're thinking about having your wedding at Lake Lawn Resort, you HAVE to go in for a tour. It was one of the best days of our lives and I'm so grateful we chose to have our wedding at Lake Lawn Resort!

I cannot speak highly enough about Jaci - her attentiveness to our questions and concerns, quick responses, and friendliness eased my nerves leading up to and during my wedding day. Jaci is so knowledgeable, always willing to help, and her excellent communication skills made it feel like I was working with a close friend or family member! She went above and beyond to ensure myself, my husband, and our guests were comfortable and knew where to be at all times. She is incredibly trustworthy and talented at her job!
