Our wedding day at the Lakehouse was absolutely incredible! We had a winter wedding in February, so there ended up being an unexpectedly large snowstorm on the day, but the staff m...
ade sure that we were still able to take a few outside pictures at the dock and that the walkways and parking lots were safely accessible to all of our guests. Kacey, our event producer, was amazing to work with throughout the planning process and made sure the reception ran on time. She made sure we had all of our questions answered and even provided many helpful suggestions as well. We felt absolutely no stress throughout our wedding day thanks to Kacey and the Lakehouse team. The food was also excellent. I would highly recommend the Lakehouse as a wedding venue, not only because of the absolutely beautiful location (regardless of the time of year or weather situation) but because of how effortless and smooth everything was from day 1.

We are beyond grateful for the entire experience and would give more than five stars if we could. Highly recommend to any couple looking for their dream wedding venue! The Morency's!!

Working with Kacey Sharpe at The Lakehouse was a DREAM COME TRUE!!! The amount of patience, grace, and organization Kacey has is beyond me. During every one of our planning meeting...
s, Kacey expertly navigated differing opinions among family members, kept diligent notes of our schedule (and the many changes we made to it), and spent as much time with us as we needed, never making us feel rushed. We were always greeted with positivity, professionalism, and a deep knowledge of the venue and broader event team - somehow, she always had a smile on her face! She was always available right away by text or email and responded as soon as possible to any questions or concerns with clarity and kindness. She even worked with us to create the best dining package with our outside caterer that fit our unique needs and coordinated this effort directly with the lead caterer. I admit that I can be quite the perfectionist, and I can say with the utmost confidence that Kacey and her team executed the decorations I dropped off before the wedding beautifully and made the place look stunning.
Notably, when we encountered a challenge outside of both our and the venue’s control, The Lakehouse (especially Hillary Wesson and her team) handled it expertly. They placed no extra burden on us (both emotionally and monetarily) and managed all the logistical changes independently.
We, along with my whole family, 100% recommend The Lakehouse and Kacey as a Producer for your Indian wedding (or ANY wedding, for that matter!), as she is an expert on Hindu traditions. We are grateful to have chosen The Lakehouse as our venue - many of our guests told us they have never been to a more beautiful venue (and we’d have to agree!) :)

eet, calming energy to the entire wedding planning process. She was genuinely caring, always attentive, and made it clear that what mattered to me and my husband was her top priority. She stayed on task with every detail, big and small, and her organization and professionalism made the day feel effortless. Whenever my nerves crept in, she was right there to reassure me, guide me, and keep everything running smoothly.
And on the day of, Alexis was truly phenomenal. She was unbelievably helpful, so attentive, and somehow managed to take care of every single need before it was even asked. Her presence made the entire day seamless, stress-free, and filled with joy.
Our wedding was everything we dreamed of—and so much of that is because of Kacey and Alexis. They are exceptional at what they do, and we are endlessly grateful for them. If you’re getting married at The Lakehouse, you absolutely want this team by your side.

We had the absolute best experience hosting our wedding at The Lakehouse. Daniella, our event coordinator, was incredible. She kept track of every detail, answered all of our quest...
ions, and was so flexible with adjusting our timeline to accommodate photos and our traditional tea ceremony. We trusted her with recommendations on décor placement and everything turned out beautifully. She was highly communicative and very responsive throughout the entire process.
The venue itself is gorgeous. Our guests loved the picturesque views, and many commented on how stunning the space was. The food tasting was easy to schedule and attend, and we had a great time meeting potential vendors and browsing décor options. The food itself was also great! We also appreciate how careful and flexible Saphire Event Group was with accommodating allergies and dietary restrictions for our guests. The paella station and Pomme Frites late night station were major highlights, but the biggest hit by far was the chocolate chip cookies To Go station. Guests are still talking about those cookies after the wedding!
On the day of, Daniella made sure everything stayed on schedule, dynamically pivoting as needed when certain events or activities ran longer than expected. We'd also like to give a shout out to our bridal attendant, Amanda, who was also amazing. She made sure we ate, stayed hydrated, and always kept the bridal gown perfectly fluffed or out of the way for photos.
The Lakehouse is a beautiful venue with an outstanding team. Thank you for such an unforgettable day!

was truly exceptional. She was always responsive, available, and one step ahead. She took the time to understand our vision from day one and executed it in a way that went far beyond what we ever imagined. We trusted her completely, and she delivered an experience we will never forget. Thank you Kacey! The entire wedding day flowed perfectly. Kim also exceptional on our wedding day, It was such a relief to know everything was being managed behind the scenes while we simply enjoyed the moment. We also received so many compliments on the food, which was not only delicious but beautifully presented. The venue itself is breathtaking. Its kept immaculately clean, and truly was the perfect setting our wedding. The staff who worked closely with us were professional, kind, and attentive throughout the entire process. Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more, and we owe so much of that to the incredible team at Saphire Event Group. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning their special day. They made the biggest day of our lives feel effortless, magical, and truly unforgettable.

She answered any questions we had and put us at ease about the small details of the day. Victoria single-handedly helped make our day the best day of our lives.

oked (before the venue was even finished), we were impressed with the team’s professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to making our day special.
The venue itself is stunning—modern, airy, and thoughtfully designed. Even with rain in the forecast, the indoor ceremony space felt romantic and scenic thanks to the large windows and lakeside views. There were so many great photo opportunities throughout the space, and everything transitioned smoothly from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception.
One of the absolute highlights of our experience was working with our event producer, Kacey. She was incredibly helpful, responsive, and patient throughout the entire planning process. She brought our vision to life beautifully, ensuring that every detail was executed with care and intention. Having her by our side gave us peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy the day.
The food was another standout—we received so many compliments from guests about how delicious and fresh everything was. The chef was flexible with customizations, and we loved the wide range of food and drink options available. The presentation was equally impressive, especially the elevated food stations and beautifully plated salads.
Overall, our wedding day was everything we had hoped for and more. The Lakehouse was the perfect venue, and we’re so grateful to the entire team—especially Kacey—for making it all happen so seamlessly.

Among all the wonderful physical attributes, Kacey is enough of a reason to get married here.

Planning can be a lot of fun but also stressful and everyone working at the Lakehouse knows exactly what they’re doing. The day of, we were completely taken care of and felt like we could just enjoy our special day.

We held our wedding at The Lakehouse this past June and couldn't have asked for a more magical experience. We saw the venue when it was being renovated and honestly it turned out e...
ven better than the renderings. The venue itself is absolutely stunning - the lakefront location provided the most breathtaking backdrop for both our ceremony and reception, and the natural light bleeding into the indoor spaces were also incredible. The clean, modern aesthetics provided a perfect canvas for our wedding vision.
What truly set The Lakehouse apart was the exceptional staff. The entire team was professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Our venue producer Kacey was incredibly organized and responsive throughout the planning process, answering every question with patience and expertise. On the wedding day, the staff worked seamlessly behind the scenes, ensuring everything ran smoothly so we could focus on enjoying our celebration.
The service during the reception was fantastic- guests were well taken care of, drinks were well-managed, and the timing of each event was executed perfectly. The staff's attention to detail was remarkable, from the beautiful table settings to the way they handled our special requests promptly and with such care.
The food was also another standout. Guests could not stop raving about the quality, presentation, number of options, and just the amount of food total, with everyone going home happy.
We cannot recommend The Lakehouse highly enough for couples looking for a wedding venue that combines lakeside aesthetics, beautiful spaces, and exceptional service. Thank you to the entire team for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!

I honestly don’t even know where to begin. Our experience with The Lakehouse—especially with Daniella—was nothing short of incredible. From the very start, when we were just debati...
ng whether to choose them as our venue, they were beyond helpful in finding a date and time that worked best for my now-husband and me.
We're from Massachusetts but currently living in Arizona, so you'd think planning a wedding from across the country would be difficult. Not with Daniella. She went above and beyond to make sure I felt like I was getting the full red carpet experience despite the distance. She was always available to hop on a call, pulled strings behind the scenes to make everything perfect, and honestly felt more like a best friend throughout the entire process. I seriously begged her to just join the party at one point!
If you’re on the fence about choosing The Lakehouse—do it. It’s worth every single penny. I could list a million things that went wrong during the overall planning process and even on the wedding day, but none of it had anything to do with Saphire Event Group.
I also want to give a huge shoutout to Aubre and Cortney. While I didn’t work with them as closely as I did with Daniella, I met them the morning of the wedding and they instantly made me feel comfortable and welcomed. They advocated for me when I needed it, provided reassurance, and made me feel like I was their top priority the entire day.
And yes—it rained on my wedding day. But I loved this venue so much that being inside didn’t even faze me. The transition from the outdoor setup to the indoor ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception was absolutely seamless. I honestly don’t know how this team operates with such perfection, but I’m telling you—they do.
Thank you all for making me feel so supported and at home during one of the most vulnerable times in my life. And Daniella—a huge thank you for all your care, support, and empathy during the MAJOR bumps in the road. I truly don’t know what my wedding day would’ve looked like without you, I probably would've convinced Bryan top elope instead. One hundred time over, thank you SOO much Daniella, you're made for this. Your humanity went a long way for me and its because of you my day was perfect.
LOVE YOU ALL!!!
ps.. I'd like to add how attentive the servers and bartenders were. I saw them very little, however, when I did encounter them they were super kind and there to do one thing - amazing customer service. I only heard positive comments about EVERY staff member at The Lakehouse. I also cannot forget the chief, I was so overwhelmed by guest raving how top tier the food was. Thank you all for delivering the absolute best experience to our family and friend... and vendors!

We took a huge leap of faith when booking the venue as it was down to the studs and hard to envision. We are SO glad we leaped! We also appreciate her help with the tasting and ensuring we got exactly what we wanted.
Victoria jumped in two months before the wedding and took charge. Being an event planner myself I knew it was going to be hard for me to let go of control! I am SO thankful she was our day of coordinator, I can honestly say I didn't worry about a thing all day! As soon as we were at the Lakehouse I knew she could handle everything... including improvising with the printed menus last minute :). Victoria has a passion for weddings and is such a breath of fresh air and a positive light to be around.
The food - WOW!! All of our guests raved and said it was the best meal they had ever had at a wedding!! Working in the industry, food was one of the most important things to us! We received a text on the Tuesday after our wedding from someone in our bridal party saying she was daydreaming about the Sea Bass!! Thank you SO much.

Our wedding, hosted by The Saphire Event Group at The Lakehouse was everything we could have imagined! Our wedding coordinator was Victoria R., she made the whole planning process ...
so easy and fun! She was a attentive, professional and overall a pleasure to work with. Our guests loved the newly renovated venue as much as we did, the food was incredible and the staff were so helpful. We can’t recommend this venue and The Saphire Event group enough!

My husband and I had originally planned a backyard wedding and after costing out everything, quickly decided that a venue that handled everything would actually be more budget frie...
ndly. We found the Lakehouse on The Knot. When we went to tour the venue was about to start construction. We took a leap of faith and booked it based on the photo renderings. And let me tell you- I am SO happy we did. Our coordinator, Victoria, was fantastic and incredible to work with. I had a lot of logistic questions but she supplied me with an information packed that answered every single question. The food was delicious (and not just for wedding food- but legit really good). The day moved smoothly and the attention to detail the staff paid was incredibly appreciated. We got to most spectacular weather for a late November wedding and were able to get married outside. I hope to attend another wedding at the Lake house as a guest one day!

ank you to our wedding coordinator, Kacey, who was incredibly helpful and made the entire process stress-free.
The food was outstanding—our guests are still raving about it! And the newly renovated wedding space was stunning, with a modern and elegant design that provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception.
We couldn't have asked for a better venue and highly recommend The Lakehouse to anyone looking for an unforgettable wedding experience!

Our entire experience with The Lakehouse and Saphire Event Group was amazing! The venue is absolutely gorgeous inside and out after their renovations. The decor is classy and chic,...
yet enough of a blank canvas that you can add your own color and touches. There is SO much space in the cocktail and lounge areas and a huge dance floor, with room for a full band (we had 9-piece). We received so many compliments on the venue and food from guests.
Our event producer, Victoria, was phenomenal. Super responsive, organized, and easy to work with. She gave helpful and honest suggestions when appropriate, which was so helpful when deciding on a lot of the small details. The entire day ran so smoothly because of her, the event manager, the bridal attendant, and the entire serving and kitchen staff. I truly don't have anything to critique, it was perfect!

t stopped receiving compliments about our wedding day.
We got married in early November, so there wasn’t much foliage on the trees, but that did not take away any of the beauty of this venue! We lucked out with weather and had a gorgeous outdoor ceremony in front of the lake. The transition from our ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception was flawless and incredibly well-organized. The venue itself is breathtaking with its large windows, offering stunning views and a layout that allowed for an easy and natural flow throughout the day. There are also SO MANY photo ops, so even if weather didn’t cooperate, we would have had gorgeous photos no matter what!
The food was nothing short of amazing! All of our guests, even our most high-maintenance ones, were highly impressed from our passed hors d’oeuvres, to our piping hot dinner. They LOVED the cookies & milk station, as well as our late-night french fry bar!
I had been dreaming about this day for as long as I can remember, and I am super type-a, so I have been planning every detail for awhile! It was important to me that certain details were executed the way I had envisioned them. We were assigned Victoria as our Event Producer about 8 months prior to our wedding. She gave us the best advice and suggestions throughout the planning process, which is appreciated when you have so many decisions to make! We had a large wedding of 180 guests, as well as an 8-piece band, so it was important to us to have a large dance floor. Victoria put together the perfect floor plan that allowed us to dance the night away! On the day of our wedding, she setup all of our décor the exact way we envisioned it, and then some! We were so happy to have her there, and she was equally excited to be there for us. We truly did not have to lift a finger once we got to the venue! Our Event Manager, Aubre, kept everything running smoothly behind-the-scenes on our wedding day to the point where we did not have to worry about a thing. Our Wedding Attendant, Emma, was always right there when we needed her! She carried my bouquet or drink, bustled my dress, and even made sure we had and ate our appetizers, dinner, and dessert! These 3 women were lifesavers, and we could not have gotten through the day without them! They were so kind, thoughtful, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure us and our guests were happy and taken care of.
We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful, stress-free experience, and we are so grateful to The Lakehouse and Saphire Event Group team for making our wedding day so perfect and unforgettable!

We got married here mid-October during peak foliage autumn season, and we absolutely LOVED the venue and all of Saphire Event Group (SEG)! Firstly, Kacey, our Event Producer, was ...
absolutely wonderful, incredibly knowledgeable, and guided us throughout the planning process. There were many moments where we had not thought of important details that she reminded us of, and she and the Saphire Event Group staff were very responsive to us, adapted to our every need (including our multiple last-minute requests), and were incredibly kind and thoughtful! Including our Asian culture was also very important to us and they were very inclusive to our cultural elements, including welcoming and including our Lion Dance performance. We truly could not have done it without Kacey and SEG, as they are ultimate experts in this industry and have thought of everything that made our weekend the most memorable. Secondly, The Lakehouse venue is gorgeous and stunning. It was the indoor-outdoor space beyond what we envisioned with the foliage around the lake and the boho-style renovations that made the venue unique in the New England area. We have been to many local weddings and have not found another venue like it with this gorgeous style. Many (if not all) of our guests complimented the venue, and mentioned the convenience with it having a huge parking lot and that the catered food was delicious. We also love the flow of the venue from the outdoor ceremony to the indoor cocktail area and reception, the bride/groom suites, and their ability to be flexible pending the weather. Our weather was sunny and perfect, and they even had corn-hole and Jenga set up for us! It is clear that they created this space specifically for weddings in mind given the flow of the space and staff coordination - the entire wedding day was smooth and seamless. We had three SEG staff coordinating our day (shoutout to Kacey, Cortney, and Aubrey!) and they were also so considerate of us as bride/groom (like bringing us our hors d'oeuvres privately). We did not have to worry about a single thing and could fully enjoy our day! 1000000% the best venue and best staff! We wanted our perfect New England autumn wedding, and we couldn't have asked for it to have been any better thanks to SEG!
P.S. The mashed potato bar was our FAVORITE and a HIT!! Highly recommend above all else.

The Sapphire estate group is so professional, organized and likable that we booked the Lakehouse based off renderings, when the venue was amidst a massive renovation.
The venue we...
nt from great to amazing with the renovations. The interior is modern and provided a neutral palette to match whatever we wanted. The windows overlooking the lake brought in so much sunlight. The outside where the ceremony was held had vibrant greens leading up to the lake. There was also plenty of lounge space for cocktail hour held outside or inside. We also loved the dock that’s attached to the venue which we found provided some of our best photos. We had many guests say it is the coolest wedding venue they’ve been to.
The food was unbelievable. 3 months later and we’re still salivating thinking about it and getting compliments from our guests.
In addition to the team of professionals that made our dream wedding a reality, we have to give a major shoutout to Victoria, our event producer and the light of our lives.
Victoria was incredible. She was well organized, communicative, flexible, and thoughtful in helping to execute our vision. She may be 4’ 10”, but she commanded everyone and kept the whole day flowing. She eliminated issues before we even heard a whisper of them and checked in on us throughout the day. Our day was incredible and Victoria was a major reason.
Becky, the bridal attendant, was also amazing. She kept us fed, organized, and calm. We didn’t have wedding parties, so she literally delivered my vows to our officiant, bustled me and remembered & put my veil on (which I had forgotten in the bag).
The entire crew was unbelievably professional and efficient. Our car wouldn’t start when we were leaving and only a few workers were left. Aubrey and two others stayed to jump our car and ensure we got home safely.
From selecting the venue to execution of the big day, this group exceeded expectations each step of the way and made our wedding day more memorable than we could’ve imagined.

The Lakehouse exceeded our expectations. We booked it before it was newly renovated because of the way they described what they were going to do. And they blew it out of the water....
We couldn’t have pictures getting married somewhere else. Everyone I talked to had a blast and complimented the food which I feel is very hard to nail with a big number of guests. But the food was phenomenal. And the staff was AMAZING. Right from booking it all the way to the day of. Madison helped us booked and answered any questions we needed during that time. Then we had Daniella and I can’t say even great words about her. She was there through it all. She made the planning process super easy and stress free. And then day of Julie was wonderful. She helped me calm my nerves and was by our side all night getting us whatever we needed! Aubre was there to help with anything needed that day as well! I wish I could relive the night over and over again! I cannot begin to explain how happy we are to have been married at The Lakehouse.

re you eat and have drinks all night. The food was amazing not a complaint. You get a wedding planner a few months before the wedding and they communicate with all your other vendors and make sure everyone is running on time and everything is set up just how you want it. They made the stress of having a wedding very minimal. Highly recommend

for our wedding coordinator and made the entire process and wedding day perfect there is not a moment of the day that I can say I was stressed out or worried about anything because I knew that she would be able to handle it. This also brings me to my bridal attendant Kim, she was again nothing short of amazing, I barely had a second to think I needed something without turning to her with whatever it was. The venue is beautiful, the staff is truly amazing and the food, to no surprise, was delicious. Between us and our friends and family we all can say how amazing our wedding was and I will always push people to get married within the Sapphire Event Group because of how easy and enjoyable Victoria, Kim and the rest of the staff made our wedding.
