Lakeside Weddings & Events

s on the tables. The staff was not professionally dressed at all. They looked like they were hired off the street or wearing sweats and/or pajamas. The coordinator Leslie was completely unprofessional, talking to my guests about her "dead husband" and not liking her job and wanting to hopefully meet someone at one of the events she oversees. The flowers were wrong, wrong colors, and wrong boquet style.The food was wrong, and the employees took what was left after the first round, so my guests could not get up and get another serving and the wedding cake was wrong. An employee stole an envelope with $500 in cash from my parents' right off the table as they got up to dance. When we confronted Leslie, the coordinator with the situation, she ran and locked herself in her office. We asked her to please check the cameras and video and she refused. She offered no apologies or to look into the situation or till this day no feedback. I have called several times and left several messages for Angelina McKenzie and the conpany owner with no call back. The only thing offered were excuses and trying to put blame back on us by Angelina McKenzie. I left several messages for Angelina McKenzie, Felicia (floral manager) , Alison Johnson (photographer), and the Owner of the company regarding the several issues and still have not heard back from anyone. You and your company made this bride cry on her wedding day, and you should've made sure it was the best day ever for me, my husband and our guests. I do not recommend Lakeside Weddings for your wedding. Let's see how long it takes for a response to this review.

. We wanted something beautiful and quaint while not being too far from the strip. Lakeside Weddings and Events checked every single one of those boxes. Our date was available and everything felt so perfect, we couldn’t send our deposit over fast enough. When I say we were thrilled to have booked this venue, we couldn’t have gushed enough over it. The last 6 weeks, or so, leading up to our wedding we submitted all of the documents Lakeside and Wynndy requested regarding food, music, and so on, everything seemed to be going to plan. We were truly over the moon for this day. Fast forward to the day before our wedding, the first time we got to see our venue in person. Instantly upon arriving to the venue, it seemed no one even knew we were coming - let alone that it was a scheduled appointment. Finally someone acknowledged us and then we were placed with a different woman… a woman who was seemingly brand new to every detail of our wedding. Including financial agreements such as we paid an additional fee for additional time and this person flat out told us we were wrong, despite what the contract blatantly stated. Long story short, this woman was the end to our dream wedding. If it could’ve backed out then and there we would’ve been on our way to the strip to find an Elvis impersonator to host our wedding. And I wish I was exaggerating. But back to before the wedding. Once we were finally able to track down Wynndy, our contact the entire duration of planning this wedding, she also told us we were wrong when I had our contract that clearly showed the additional time paid for in my hands. Both of these women gave us incredibly pretentious attitudes, along with gaslighting us by continuing to tell us we were wrong, the day before our wedding over things that were later found to be correct in our favor. As I was waiting to walk down the aisle, I couldn’t help but realize the song I was supposed to be walking down said aisle to was already playing for the bridal party. All music was clearly written in the documents we were asked to submit. When I waved at the DJ we were given (a part of the venue fee - you get no credit if you want to book another) to let him know the music was off, he just pointed his finger towards this woman ruining our ceremony music, blatantly showing how little he cared about this wedding. Not a single song we requested for our ceremony was played at the correct time. Including the one I was supposed to walk down the aisle to. Fast forward to our reception, when my now husband quite literally had to bribe this DJ with money to get him to turn up the music because even at the back table of a reception for a wedding of 50, I could hardly hear the music. All of this to say if you want to waste your money on a venue who couldn’t care less about you or your desires for one of the biggest days of your life, Lakeside Weddings is for you. They aim to displease and quite literally ruin some of the biggest parts of your day. Overall this is a beautiful venue with some of the worst wedding coordinators I have ever experienced. Did I mention I’ve been a wedding photographer for 12 years? Take my advice, go somewhere else. Sadly, this place couldn’t care less.

ing . (Communication and promises made were never followed up with) 2. Upon arriving to the venue we were told there was a groom suite we would be able to wait in . There wasn't. Just 7 grooms and my parents waiting in a lobby for 1 hour 😒. We were told the day of the wedding that they no longer had a groom suite available and that it wasn't in our contract. 3. Photos took waaay too long . Over 2 hours of our reception time . (I highly recommend getting pictures done in advance by your own photographer) 4. Had our first dance around 8pm and our wedding was supposed to end at 10pm 🤔. Time table was very off and WE had to pay $500 out of pocket to extend our wedding 1 hour. 5. Food was improperly cooked (potatoes were raw and crunchy) and we didn't have enough children plates served which had my guests running down the street to get there kids food because the kids were denied access to our buffet line. 1 hr later they apologized and brought out more kids plates. 6. The DJ ("MC") was absolutely horrible . Made her a whole Playlist which was mostly r&b and hip hop and somehow we ended up with Stand by Me & Bubbly by Colby Callet as our money dance song 🙄🤦🏽‍♂️. She was not involved with the guest and literally stood in a booth the whole time playing songs off of a computer. 7. Guests didn't even know we had cut the cake because the "MC" never announced the cake cutting. 8. A portion of our wedding favors were never displayed with our other favors because they contained alcohol in them and we had children at our wedding (mini liquor store style shot bottles). Instead they were displayed on the bartop which our guest were taking and drinking thinking they were provided by the bar. (This was very upsetting because we paid for the open bar and they were using our purchased favors to serve the guests). 9. After pointing out obvious mistakes a few days after the wedding, the wedding coordinator became very defensive and continued to talk over me while I was voicing my concerns . I found that very rude and unprofessional. The wedding venue did end up apologizing and they gave us our final hour and picture package for free but it came no where close to the money we spent on this event. I strongly advise anyone booking a wedding here to make sure EVERYTHING is written down in the contract you sign. This is a beautiful venue but I can not and will not recommend this place to anyone due to the mistakes that occurred.

ends and family at the sunset with a pretty view, we just missed the sunset because of the weather and it was a little windy, but the place was perfect, met every need and desire we had for our important date, just be aware of weather when you book your date, so you could catch the beautiful sunset.

is time make it longer!! I also recommend Jason, our minister, he added a magic to our ceremony that I can't explain without you having been there to witness it. Perfect venue, perfect wedding, perfect day!!

e photo booth was a big hit. Our guests were amazed. Everyone had a great time. I highly recommend Lakeside Weddings to celebrate your special day.

so we were stressed about booking a venue that we couldn't see beforehand. But everything was beautiful just like the pictures we saw online. If you are looking for a beautiful venue to celebrate your wedding day. I highly recommend Lakeside Wedding and Events! I promise you won't regret it!

he flashy flashy Vegas vibe and everyone there complimented how beautiful the venue was. They have a few different venue options that are all very beautiful. My only wish is that we could have been married at sunset, I was told that they don't book at sunset for the ceremony only option. I also feel like they were just a bit dismissive because it was only a ceremony and not a reception as well, but I don't read too much into it because I live out of state and many things can be misconstrued in emails and texts.

edding coordinator, Lucas, was amazing! He helped us out from day one and was available to answer any questions we had up to our wedding day. Even when a slight hiccup occurred where we had to change the date of our wedding, Lucas made sure that everything would be taken care of and that it was no issue. "No need to stress," is what we would say when I would call asking questions and panicking. It is because of the professionalism of Lucas, the excellent service of those involved with the wedding and the peaceful, beautiful venue that I would highly recommend Lakeside Weddings and Events to anyone considering this location for their wedding or special event.

ls, so it meant slower than usual response times, however, they took care of everything with little oversight or worry. I would highly recommend the location, venue, and team!

s for 1 of the cabs so far. I think the venue is very nice, it was just unorganized. I had more to worry about than I should have.

ng day perfect. We did ceremony and reception here. It was so convenient. They literally provided everything I needed. We are from Canada. So it was so stress free and I can't say enough good about them. So grateful and thankful to have had this as my wedding venue.

th me to make sure I understood what was happening. When the day came, it was perfect! Everything ran so smoothly. The DJ was amazing in keeping the dance floor full and was the perfect hype woman! Our photographer Michael was also wonderful and attentive! He made sure to capture all of the best moments, but he also made it a point to not be in the way of other people. He was also very open and easy to talk to and share ideas with. The food was also amazing! It was a buffet style with a plated starter salad. We also had the option for vegetarian meal for those who wanted one. Those plates were also very good! It really was a dream wedding!

taff there were very professional and very accommodating due to the last minute hustle. Isabel was our planner and was absolutely wonderful. They made our day special when it could have been a complete disaster. Book here.

need- DJ, cake, flowers, photographer, videographer, minister, photobooth, everything! This was very important for us since we did not want to spend all that time finding individual vendors. And the venue is gorgeous! Right on the water! We were in the reception room with the indoor tree, beautiful chandelier, and twinkling lights. The only thing to consider is the size of the reception room. We had about 140 people and the room did seem a little crowded, and the line for the bar did get long but the bartenders did a good job moving people through quickly. We are so happy that we chose Lakeside and had an unforgettable night! Thank you!

about anything the only task I had was picking out the wedding colors and food. My ceremony was beautiful out by Lake Jacqueline so peaceful and serine. I would recommend this vendor to anyone who wants a outdoor wedding by the lake. Thank you Lakeside Weddings.

e took care of every little detail for us, from the flowers to the photographer to an exceptional meal. Karolynn made sure that it was the most perfect day a bride could ask for, staying on top of everything and making sure that all guests, not just the Bride and Groom were taken care of. Lakeside Weddings took all the stress out of planning a wedding and we were able to enjoy our day to the fullest. If you are planning on a Vegas wedding, you need to contact Lakeside Weddings, they will give you a day that you will never forget!

eption was an intimate (70 guests) gathering for family and friends. The venue was warmly transformed into my dream venue and the cost was very AFFORDABLE for everything contained within my selected package. From the plum and silver decor to the gold overtones in the reception room, my wedding vision came true to life. I could not ask for a more perfect place to say "I Do". Jhanae unselfishly gave me sage advice throughout the entire process, which included careful orchestration of the menu selection, music, entertainment, wedding decor, and floral arrangements. Because my fiance was in Afghanistan and wasn't due back the states until a week before the wedding, planning rested solely on me, which made me have to rely on Jhanae's wedding expertise. From the day I walked into her office looking for wedding assistance she helped me overcome my nervousness, and wedding jitters. My event was at sunset so the lake was beautiful and the perfect backdrop for the ceremony. I could go on and on about the venue, the extraordinary level of customer service, professional photography, the picture booth, the food and wedding cake bakery and the DJ because each of these services were "FIRST RATE". Everything about this place oozed of FIRST CLASS so having your wedding and reception afterwards at this facility makes the bride and groom King and Queen for the day. You will not be disappointed if you decide to hold your magical event at this venue. You cannot go wrong with planning and having your wedding at Lakeside. Trust me on this one :) You will not be disappointed.
