LakeWatch Inn

LakeWatch Inn was the PERFECT venue for our wedding! The venue is beautiful and unique both inside and out. Nicole was an absolute dream to work with! She was beyond helpful and always answered my millions of questions and emails, as I was planning a wedding from out of state. The grounds are beautiful for an outside wedding and photos. Everything from the space to the food to the staff was phenomenal! I cannot recommend a better place to get married!

The LakeWatch Inn was the perfect place to have our wedding and reception! They were so easy going and accommodating, even when I asked if we could hang over 1000 paper cranes from the ceiling (and they did without a hitch - it looked awesome). Nicole even allowed us to come in Thursday and Friday before the wedding for setup and rehearsal. The day of we were battling heavy rain, but when the sun came out they quickly dried the chairs and we were able to do everything outside as planned! For the cocktail hour and reception, the food was exactly what we asked for with the tasting, and they had all of our favorite beers ready to go. Guests are still raving! You can tell Nicole has been doing this a long time - she steered us in the right direction every step of the way. 10/10 would use LakeWatch again!

When my husband and I walked through the doors of The LakeWatch Inn we knew right away that this was the perfect venue for us to celebrate our wedding day. It had the exact rustic, yet very chic, vibe we were looking for. As soon as we met Nicole, she put our wedding stress at ease and we knew that planning out our day would be a great experience, even though we were doing it from across the country! She just “got us” right away and throughout our planning process she helped us make some critical decisions while guiding us with her wisdom and experience! The Space: The Inn itself is set on such beautiful land and the views created the perfect backdrop for our wedding ceremony. The grounds are kept so nicely and our guests could not stop talking about how gorgeous the scenery was. There were many stunning photoshoots which took place throughout the day/night, both by our photographers and guests! The space inside comfortably fit all of our guests (167). Nicole, once again, expertly guided us in decorating the room to make for a colorful and elegant feel and helped us to add our personal touches from afar! The porch, where we held cocktail hour and housed the bar for the night, provided a fun space for our guests to flow in and out and take a break from dancing to chat. Many of our family members and friends commented on how nice that was! The Food: Chef Kevin and his team executed a delicious cocktail hour that provided a wide variety of options for our guests’ palates. The dinner meal was even more delicious! Our guests are still raving at how impressed they were by the way their meals were cooked and how unique and flavorful they were! My husband and I loved having a sampling of all the dinner options to snack on during the evening and then to take back with us and enjoy when our big day came to an end! The kitchen was so flexible and was able to accommodate for some of our guests dietary restrictions (gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian). Not to mention, the presentation for everything was so beautiful! The Last Minute Details: As many brides, grooms, and their families know, the day before the wedding can get a little hectic. When unexpected hiccups arose, Nicole knew just what to do! From dealing with an emotional bride to making our space coming together when she had a to-do list of her own...Nicole stayed professional and helped us all keep our cool! All the last minute plans would never have come together without her and we left for the rehearsal dinner knowing the next day would be the best day ever!... The Big Day: ...and of course it was!! To say that Nicole and her team went above and beyond to make all of the elements of our wedding day run smoothly and beautifully would be an understatement. We, along with our family and many of our guests, can not say enough about the way Nicole helped us carry out the wedding of our dreams. Even our dog, the ring bearer, would say that Nicole made time for everyone that day in order to make sure everything went as planned, if not better than the way it was supposed to!

We chose the Lake Watch Inn mainly because of the aesthetic of it, it is an absolutely beautiful barn space. Nicole worked with us and she was fabulous, dealing with all my crazy and making the place look even better than I could have hoped. The food was excellent as well. We had a buffet with carved beef, chicken cordon bleu, green beans, roasted potatoes, and rice. We got tons of comments on how cool the space was and everyone seemed to like the food as well. Price was fairly reasonable, and even when we needed a minister at the last minute due to an unforeseen cancellation, Nicole got someone to come out last minute to work with us. I could go on and on about all the things I loved! Everything was completely perfect!
