Rocky’s & Makayla made our wedding dreams come true. Not only is it a GORGEOUS venue, but Makayla is so helpful and accommodating when it comes to planning. You truly won’t find another venue that provides as much as they do and as a wedding planner myself, it’s nice to see that venues like this still exist. My wedding was Friday September 27th and that was the week Hurricane Helene decided to make her appearance. Of course, all week I was freaking out about the weather, but Makayla assured me we wouldn’t have to make a rain call until a few hours before the ceremony. While the inside ceremony option was still gorgeous, I of course always pictured my ceremony outside. Thankfully the hurricane passed and it stopped raining at 11am on Friday, so we were able to have our ceremony and cocktail hour outside. It was just absolutely gorgeous. We could not have had such a magical day had it not been for Makayla and her team. Thank you all times a million !
Absolutely gorgeous venue! So many of our guests took the time to mention how beautiful the setting was and enjoyed a drink by the lake as the sun set. Huge shout out to our coordinator Makayla, who made our day a total breeze and stress free, and Mitchell, the greatest transportation specialist a venue has ever had!
We all agree, Rocky's is breathtakingly beautiful. BUT if you're planning a wedding there, bring your own PROFESSIONAL coordinator because they are certainly lacking in that area. Book your appt, take a tour, pick a date, pay, make notes, vision boards, and then it's off to the next future client. My daughters wedding this past weekend was so unorganized and chaotic because of the coordinators. They have zero communication skills. This in turn cost us a lot of valuable time with photographers. They did not go by the schedule. I had to ask who Candice was when she got in the van with my daughter enroute to the ceremony. No introduction, yet here she was, THE DIRECTOR moments away from directing my daughter's magical day. I had to force and initiate that conversation. She is seen in one of our video footage acting a fool towards our seated guests from a distance, trying to get them to rise. She was literally standing there flapping her arms in such an embarrassing manner. If she were at rehearsal, she would've known the Officiant was making an announcement instead of being so incredibly unprofessional. Candice also should have fluffed my daughter's dress at the arch. That too was discussed at rehearsal but again she wasn't present, nor did she follow instruction. I could go on and on about what she DIDN'T do, as she was only seen TWICE the entire night, with one of those times being when she was called out for eating in the bar/kitchen area when she should have been concerned about being behind in schedule and moving forward. Rocky's offers a shuttle van AND a golf cart to transport Bridal and Groom parties on the grounds for photos. Not once did they use both modes, which in turn also put us way behind with our schedules because they repeatedly had to make multiple trips due to our large wedding party of 9 bridesmaids and 9 groomsmen. That, and the fact they were 20 min late, ultimately cost us valuable time with our paid photographer and videographer and prevented my daughter from getting a lot of the photo shots she had envisioned. The bridal suite was beautiful but was not clean upon our arrival. There were cobwebs in the corners, rat feces in the kitchen drawer, and it was stocked with a half roll of toilet tissue, no extra garbage bags, just a few paper towels. The website shows a "team" of coordinators. Our coordinator Makayla, who assisted us from the beginning, was on the schedule for rehearsal. We zoomed through 2 runs of practice with minimal details on her end, so she could be present at the table during the same time for her "next" appt. She did not honor the vision board she had set forth with my daughter and changed things at the last minute on wedding day without telling us. Also on wedding day, they were doing tours as they were preparing for my daughter's wedding. IT IS NOT OKAY TO MISHANDLE AND NOT FOCUS on my daughter's wedding day to book your future clients. If you have a "team" of coordinators, then call them in and let them provide tours and not take the ones we hired for OUR DAY! I will always believe that distraction took away from the details they should've been focused on. While the day certainly didn't go as planned, we won't let that dictate the wonderful memories of my daughter's marriage to her best friend. I would strongly suggest that if you book at Rocky's, please bring your own coordinator or "babysitter" to make sure that the incompetent staff does what they contracted to you they were going to do.
We recently celebrated our wedding at Rocky's, and it was nothing short of magical! Makayla, our coordinator, was outstanding, going above and beyond to make our day perfect. The staff was incredibly accommodating, surprising us with their flexibility and willingness to meet our needs/requests. On the day of our wedding there were multiple staff members making sure we had everything we needed and stayed on schedule - Mitchell, Korleigh, and Jose are amazing!
Rocky's was the first and only venue we looked at because we were immediately sold on the versatility of their spaces. There are a range of options if you are worried about weather conditions or are going for a certain vibe. Our entire experience felt very personalized and the day truly went off without any issues. Our guests were beyond impressed with everything and continually complimented how beautiful the venue was (it SHINES at night!).
Rocky's and the entire staff exceeded our expectations. It's the perfect choice for anyone seeking a versatile, stunning, and unforgettable wedding venue. Thank you, Rocky and team, for making our special day truly exceptional!
We attended our friends' wedding here, and the location was beautiful! Myself and two other arrived mid-afternoon to bring some snacks for the family in the bridal suite, and Juan was very helpful and attentive. Overall, I would certainly recommend this venue for others having a wedding.
As a makeup artist working on site, the venue as a whole really knows what they are doing. Everything is so thought out & absolutely beautiful! But I’d like to really shout out Juan!! He truly made everything so smooth from arrival to departure. He made sure we knew how to contact him & let us know if there was anything he could help with in/out of the bridal suite to just call/text. As a vendor working, I had an early arrival & unfortunately no caffeine. He went out of his way to try to find me some coffee! That level of service is truly unmatched and more than appreciated!!
Gorgeous venue and wonderful staff that helped with all the day of festivities! Juan in particular was an incredible addition to making the day run smoothly, especially for the bride crew - he made sure we had everything we needed. I’d never been to a wedding venue with such helpful staff!
I was here for a friends wedding and everything was perfect. Juan, especially, made sure the day went smoothly and the bride had whatever she needed.
There isn’t enough I could say about this venue and the experience of our time here. From the stunning venue, to all the amazing people that helped- it was a great experience. I want to specifically point out Juan, Juan went above and beyond to make the day as easy and smooth as possible. It was very obvious how much he cared about his clients and did everything in his power to make it a a great experience for everyone. He was Juan-derful!!!!
Absolutely beautiful venue! The experience was made by Juan! He was so helpful, kind and patient. He went the extra mile and i can not say enough good things about this man!
This venue was not only GORGEOUS but the staff was amazing! Everyone we came in contact with throughout the entire day (which started at 8am for the girls) was beyond helpful and friendly. Our personal contact for the majority of the day was JUAN! And he went above and BE-JUAN-D! I was a bridesmaid and I was freezing and this man brought me BLANKETS!! He was funny, sweet, and made sure we did not go without. 10/10 recommend this venue and 10/10 recommend Juan!!
My wife and I got married in January and it was the best day. I was nervous about how everything would work out but Candice Rich made me and my wife feel very comfortable and not stressed at all! Loved the venue and the spot where we got ready at. The helicopter was definitely my favorite part. Thanks everyone at Rocky’s for the best day ever!
From the time we said I Do at Rocky’s Lake Estate for my wedding, Candice Rich and her team at Rocky’s, made us feel like our wedding was top priority. They walked us through each step of the planning. The choices are endless for center pieces and all decor. On the day of the wedding they assigned assistants to the men and the women of the wedding party to take care of every need up to the wedding. The bridal suite and man cave was so comfortable and fun. They kept us running on time and the option for the helicopter as the exit vehicle was so unique. The Woodstock location of Rocky’s makes it so convenient for out of town guests to stay close. I recommend this location for anyone’s special day. I loved every single part of our day, everything was handled for us and was so effortless
I was a groomsman in a wedding recently. It was not only fun but handled with excellence. All of the staff was friendly and quick to assist or answer any questions. Juan was especially helpful with the groom and groomsmen. He and Mitchell also were enthusiastic to take care of any needs or drive us around the property. Candice as well was friendly but organized with keeping things moving and finding solutions with any surprise shake ups.
The venue itself was beautiful. A wonderful setting with scenery that encourages one to stop for moments of reflection during the celebratory times.
Thank you Rocky’s Lake Estate!!
Mikayla and Rocky's Lake Estate were wonderful to work with for my son's wedding reception. The venue is super pretty and Mikayla makes the process painless - everything was beautiful and professionally handled. Texting and emailing with Mikayla was easy! Thanks for a fun and memorable day!
One year to the date of our wedding and that should bring into perspective the feeling of bliss that this venue contributed to the day that my love and I became one. We’ve just refused to come down from the cloud that this team and venue left us on. It was a bit of a challenge to get someone on the phone at first. I was so close to giving up on this venue as an option, but I couldn’t get it out of my mind. We knew it was the one just from the photos online. Once the phone was answered it was destiny and complete magic from there on out. This is the ABSOLUTE dream venue. The location, the privacy, the staff, the venue in itself was everything we dreamed of and more. There was not a person that assisted us throughout the process and on the day of the wedding that failed to meet our expectations. I was almost in tears on my wedding day because I left my special order garter at home, just under an hour away from the venue. But one of the RLE coordinators sent someone to purchase one at a nearby store just in time for that portion of the reception! I was blown away! If you are considering RLE, do yourself a favor and end your search NOW! It gets no better than this venue, the ambiance, and the staff! If my husband and I could do it all over again we’d choose RLE again and again! Thank you to the team that made our dreams a reality. We walked away with zero regrets or complaints. #SingleTONSofLove
Candace helped me so much with making my dream come to life. My wedding day was stress free because of her and her amazing work with decorating, handling all my vendors, managing al the little hiccups that popped up & came to check in on me and my bridesmaids to make sure we were all good! She worked her butt off to make the whole day go by so smoothly. I can’t explain how thankful we are to have had Candace as our Coordinator!
I had my baby shower at RLE and it was the most amazing experience. Candice handled everything and made the day a breeze, she truly went above and beyond. It was so beautiful & a day I will cherish forever!
Rocky’s venue was amazing! The staff was very helpful, the entire wedding night went exactly as planned. Everyone works together so well and knew what to do! The space is so beautiful and really spoke for itself. I would recommend this venue 1000% over again. Everyone that works there is great and made our night that much more special.
With no wedding planner, my sister and I took on the challenge of planning my sisters wedding. The first thing we locked in was Rocky’s Lake Estate for the venue, and it was the best decision my sister could have made. Our coordinator Makayla was absolutely amazing from the day we met her. She answered every question that we had, and even questions we didn’t know to ask. There were so many detail options that they provided in terms of setup and decor, not to mention the site is absolutely beautiful. My sister had a fairytale wedding much too the credit of Rocky’s. Booking them was absolutely worth it.
RLE was a beautiful venue to host our wedding. Our guests were all in awe from the second they stepped foot on the property; it’s definitely a stunning, unique venue that makes for a really special day. We also loved that RLE comes with event coordinators and all of the decor (besides flowers). It saved us a ton of leg work and money. Big shout out to Juan & Candace who didn’t miss a beat all day and were a huge part of bringing everything together!
Hidden away from the street, this venue is absolutely stunning. My husband and I knew this was the place as soon as we drove down through the gates. Not only is the outdoor ceremony area gorgeous, but the venue is surrounded by nature and a lake which makes everything feel very peaceful. We wanted an outdoor/indoor venue for flexibility (in case of weather) and Rocky's fit the bill perfectly. Our guests loved it and have continued to rave by how great this venue was.
The layout of the venue worked perfectly for our needs -- it allowed our guests the flexibility to spread out across the huge outdoor areas and the various indoor locations --- which was nice for those worried about Covid. Others enjoyed the variety in the space so they could dance one minute and then have a relaxing drink outside to cool off the next. There is also a cabana of sorts with a firepit where several people spent time throughout the evening.
Though there were some communication delays at first, the staff we interacted with were very nice and professional. Makayla took the time to help me ideate on decor ideas, walking me through their extensive resource room on several occasions. She was also able to make quick last minute edits as our guest numbers changed. From Makayla to Jose, we had a great experience and found everyone to be very helpful and accommodating.
All in all, we and our guests had a wonderful time at Rocky's and if we had to go back we would 200% book there again!
Believe every great review the precedes this one! RLE is exceptional in every way. We hosted our daughter’s wedding at RLE last Saturday night and simply cannot say enough about the venue, the staff, the planning support, and how all of the above came together to provide an event that was beyond anything we could have asked for. Candice provided exceptional support during the planning process, consistently surprising us by what she and RLE would do to support the event. The venue itself is stunning during the day and even more so at night. The outdoor space provides tremendous flexibility and space to offer a variety of experiences for guests, which worked out wonderfully for our at-capacity crowd. We elected to use RLE preferred vendors for catering and photography, and we’re thrilled with those results as well. Our guests cannot say enough about the event, and we truly cannot imagine how our daughter’s wedding could have been more perfect. We are forever indebted to Candice and RLE for providing a wedding for our daughter that was all we could have asked for.
Rocky's Lake Estate was the one and only wedding venue which we toured. The minute I walked through the gates, I knew I found my fairytale wedding venue. Every single time we had a tour of the venue, I was in awe of how beautiful this venue is year round. All the decor is included, and it is beautiful. The best thing at Rocky's though is the staff. Candice was our wedding coordinator and was a calming support throughout the entire process, she allowed me to change my mind and move my entire wedding outdoors while it was snowing right before our ceremony because she knew it was what I wanted. They made me feel like a princess the day of as well. The bridal suites were the perfect place to get ready and relax before walking down the aisle. Leading up to the wedding, the whole coordinating team was the biggest support. About 2 weeks before the wedding, I had a freak out moment and changed my mind about the decor completely and Makayla was an angel staying late with me to figure it all out.
Most importantly, because we did get married on the "snow day" we were so grateful that Rocky's rallied to make sure our wedding day still happened.
Rocky's was the perfect wedding venue and all of our guests agreed it was the most beautiful venue they had ever seen.
My wedding was a dream come true!!!! I cannot describe in words how beautiful this venue was. The staff is so professional and always on top of everything. We have 150 guest and almost every single one was raving about how beautiful every thing was and I was just speechless with the decorations and how they made every detail I wanted come to life!
Special shout out to Candice, Makayla, and Kiernan!
My wedding, this venue, the coordinators, and event staff made this day unforgettable. It was such a beautiful time and thanks to Candice and her team! We are going to remember this day forever
-Shae Andrews
From planning to our get away, everyone at Rocky's made things so easy and perfect. This venue and the people there are amazing. We've had so many compliments from our guest on the venue and are so happy we picked Rocky's to have our wedding.
We had the PERFECT wedding at Rocky’s! Our wedding was originally scheduled for 2020, but due to COVID, we made the difficult decision to postpone our wedding until 2021. Candice, and all other staff at Rocky’s, were an absolute dream to work with and helped us secure our 2021 date. Every single detail was accounted for and Candice was extreme responsive in answering all of our questions and ensuring that we were prepared for our day. We cannot say enough good things about the planning process and the wedding day!! It was all more beautiful than we could have imagined!!
It would take me a long time to tell you every great thing about RLE.
First, the staff…they are like a well oiled machine catering to all your needs. They literally will do just about anything you ask. It’s like the dream team on steroids. Lol Really, they are just that awesome!!!
Then the venue…talk about a fun and gorgeous place to get married! The lake is stocked and its so much fun to watch the fish and wild life while standing on the bridge or sitting in a rocker on the large gazebo that hovers over the lake. Then they have a section where they have farm animals…the mini goats stole my heart. Ok, so those are not even the details that make it a great place to get married they are just icing on top.
When you pull up at the entrance…the gorgeous iron gate opens up to a gorgeous scenery that you will not be able to keep yourself from saying, OH WOW this is gorgeous! I guarantee it. Don’t take my word for it. Go see for yourself and you’ll see what I’m talking about!!!
Then the grounds…they are immaculate and no matter what time of year it is, it looks great!
They have a gorgeous ceremony arbor and a beautiful covered area that you can get married in a still have a beautiful ceremony looking out onto the lake.
Now, the the unbelievable part… they have a whole storehouse of linens, decor, centerpieces, to decorate your wedding THAT THEY DON’T CHARGE YOU EXTRA TO USE AND THEY DO THE SETUP!!! Unheard of!!!
That saves so much money on decor and rentals! And their price was the same as many venues that only rent the space.
The arbor provides the most beautiful setting for the ceremony. Ohhhh and at night the whole place becomes a wonderland with twinkling lights and the colored fountain out on the water and if you want something unexpected they have a helicopter pad submerged underwater that comes up out of the water like a scene from 007 or something for an amazing getaway… or maybe even if someone wanted to make a grand entrance that’d be cool too!
All in all, you be glad you chose this venue for your wedding! To say I highly recommend is and understatement. Do yourself a favor…get married there!
Thank you RLE for always putting me at ease and answering all my questions being excellent and more than generous in the services you provide!
Pure magic. This is how I describe our wedding and this is how I would describe Rocky's Lake Estate. Not only is the venue absolutely breathtaking (a sentiment echoed by all of our guests) but the Rocky's team (headed by Courtney) was an absolute pleasure to work with and made the whole process of planning and pulling off our wedding a breeze.
The planning -- My husband and I live in New York and planned our entire wedding from afar. Most people we spoke to thought that this would be extremely stressful for us given that we didn't have easy access to the venue or vendors that we ultimately hired. But Courtney and her team made themselves fully available to us whenever we needed over the year of planning. All of our phone calls, emails, and texts were quickly answered. In addition, she gave us amazing recommendations for vendors we should use. These vendors are experienced in working with Rocky's, which meant even less work for us to coordinate. The whole process made wedding planning a joy for us!
ADDED BONUS #1: Rocky's has amazing decor available at no additional cost. We ended up incorporating so many of the props and flowers into our ceremony and reception layouts, turning the venue into what we envisioned and making it perfect.
ADDED BONUS #2: Rocky's has a gorgeous indoor back up space in case it rains. Luckily, we had beautiful weather on the day but this is definitely a concern for any couple planning an outdoor wedding and knowing we had a perfect indoor spot as a back up definitely took a lot of stress away leading up to the day.
The day of -- As expected, I was nervous. So was my husband. And if it wasn't for Rocky's (Courtney and her team), I'm sure we wouldn't have been able to pull off such an amazing wedding. Courtney was there at all times making sure everything went smoothly. It ended up being a beautiful day that we will remember forever!
We can't recommend this venue enough!
My dream wedding came true - Thanks to Rocky's and Candice! We got married in April 2021. My husband, my parents and myself could not have asked for a better venue to work with. They made everyone feel so welcome. Candice was a dream to work with. She was very responsive and helped make all my ideas come to life. We seriously had the best day ever! All of our guest keep talking about how beautiful everything was. The property is breathtaking! We also have to give a huge shout-out to Seth for going above and beyond for our wedding party the day of. The day wouldn’t have gone as smooth as it is without Candice and Seth. Everyone is raving about our helicopter exit! Best exit ever!
There are not enough wonderful words in this world to express what an amazing wedding venue Rocky’s is! The property is immaculate, absolutely gorgeous, and has such a nice flow to it from ceremony into reception. The property is a dream in and of itself but I haven’t even gotten to the people yet! They’re the best part! I hate that our wedding is over solely because I will miss getting to see and talk to them so regularly! A few things I want to make sure to highlight that would make you want to book them:
1. Candice. She’s been with Rocky’s since the beginning and is the absolute best resource possible! She helped answer endless questions and sent us links to all kinds of helpful planning tools and wedding sites. She kept things moving so well on wedding day too and she’s truly just a gift to be able to have help you.
2. Rain plan. Everybody’s always a little nervous for rain on their wedding day when you initially plan an outdoor ceremony and on my wedding day it rained all the way up until about an hour and 20 minutes before ceremony time. Rocky’s is amazing in that they have gorgeous options for outdoor or indoor so I wasn’t too nervous either way but ideally wanted things outside. They set up both options, inside and outside, just to be safe but trusted me when I said I wanted it outside and went into motion and it ended up being perfect! But all day they were so great about the rain and prepping and it was so nice to not have any stress about that.
3. Their whole package truly cannot be beat. We looked at countless venues and the fact that Rocky’s has all these different decor options on-hand to choose from just made the entire process so simple and nice.
Thrilled to be able to say there’s not a single thing we would’ve changed! We had the best day every and Rocky’s will forever be the most special place to both of us! It’s the perfect place for a wedding and I’m absolutely going to recommend them to everyone!
Rocky’s Lake Estate and Candice Rich were the perfect remedy for this anxious MOB. I have to admit that I came into my daughters wedding as a type A planner, while she is the no worry it will all be fine type...yikes. I thought I would have a stroke before the big day ever arrived, but Candice assured me regularly that it would all be fine and that my daughter would have her dream day. The day before the wedding we had hiccups with one of the vendors, but behind the scenes (without the bride even knowing) Candice helped me with the vendor and put in extra time and effort to make things perfect. As I lay in bed unable to sleep the night before the wedding, Candice sent me a text promising that my daughters wedding would be everything she dreamed of...it was even MORE. The venue and staff were amazing. Candice went so far and above to make sure every detail was covered to perfection. I can not imagine a more perfect event. Rocky, his venue and staff will always have a special place in my heart for providing such a magnificent day for my girl and her husband.
Wow! This place is the most magical setting for a wedding. Everything about it, from the aesthetically pleasing drive through the gates, to the incredible staff I would never recommend anywhere else! Candice, Caroline and Anna really headed up making my wedding seamless and even dreamier than I could imagine! They know exactly what they are doing!
I wish I could leave more than 5 stars! Candice and the crew at Rockys were absolutely more than we ever expected. They made our day so perfect! Even with all the commotion and drama that happened at our ceremony, they made sure the day still went as planned! We actually had no clue! Thank you Candice for making my dream wedding when i didn’t even know the dream I wanted! We appreciate all the hard work you guys put in through the entire process! Thank you! If you guys are looking for a venue look no more Rockys is THE place for any event!!
I just had my wedding at Rocky’s Lake Estate, and it was my dream wedding!!!! This place is flat out gorgeous and the staff is fantastic. My mom and I were so worried about being stressed about the wedding, and Rocky’s Lake Estate took all of our worries away. Caroline, Anna, and the rest of the staff were absolutely fantastic! Deciding to have our wedding here was the best decision we made! Thank you!
What a dream!!!! I highly recommend Rocky's Lake Estate to any future bride & groom. I love all of the additional décor that Rocky's offers at no additional cost. Our guest still talk about our helicopter exit. Candice and her team went above and beyond for us on our big day after having to reschedule due to covid. Our wedding day was magical and I couldn't of asked for anything else. Candice goes out of her way to make your wedding dreams come true.
This venue is absolutely beautiful! We had the most amazing wedding and everything went off without a hitch. Our day of coordinator Caroline Mckeon pulled everything off flawlessly for us. We cannot thank the team there enough for making our amazing day happen. I would 1000% recommend this venue to anyone and above all would recommend Caroline for their day of coordinator!
We got married at Rocky's in 2018 and I cant praise this venue enough! Candice Rich was our coordinator and without her our vision would not have came to life. I am so indecisive, and I was so overwhelmed with trying to plan a wedding. I don't have good taste, and i can never decide on anything. Candice was amazing throughout our process. She helped me coordinate what would look good where and gave me so many ideas I would have never thought of on my own. (I even changed my wedding colors because of her suggestion, which was the best decision ever) I could not have dreamed of a more beautiful wedding! It was everything and so much more! Every detail was so thought out. The venue alone is breath taking, but adding Candice's décor designs just sends it over the top. I wanted to get married outside by the pond, and of course it rained on my wedding day. The staff was so on point, they had my back up plan to move it inside ready to go in minutes. (and it was just as beautiful) 10/10 recommend getting married here! There's no other place that has all the amenities Rocky's have and such an amazing staff!
I truly cannot say enough great things about Rocky's Lake Estate! We had our wedding there in July and it was absolutely perfect! The venue is so beautiful and enchanting - it's rustic yet elegant at the same time. Walking into the reception for the first time as husband and wife and seeing how our vision came to life was honestly breathtaking! Our coordinator was Candice Rich and all I can say is that she is simply the best there is! She was so helpful throughout the whole process. Planning a wedding in the middle of a pandemic was super stressful at times and Candice always had my back and was willing to do anything she could to help me to make sure our wedding was exactly what we wanted. The day of our wedding ran so smoothly, probably because everyone at Rocky's is so nice and accommodating. I think it makes a big difference when you can tell that people love what they do and that shows through every person I ever encountered at Rocky's! I have gotten so many compliments from guests who were blown away by how unique and beautiful our venue and reception was! I truly would not change one thing about our wedding and would recommend Rocky's Lake Estate to every couple looking for a wedding venue!
Rocky's Lake Estate was the perfect venue and had everything I dreamed of and more for my wedding! The entire venue is absolutely breathtaking! Candice Rich was my wedding coordinator at the venue and she was absolutely AMAZING! She was so helpful every step of the way during the entire planning process! She made everything I had envisioned for my wedding day come to life! Candice also made sure everything ran smoothly on the day of the wedding! All of the staff at the venue on the day of my wedding were amazing as well and made sure they did everything they could to help anyone and everyone! All of our guests were blown away by the venue and every aspect of our wedding and have not stopped complimenting it! I wouldn't change a thing about my wedding and I would highly recommend Rocky's Lake Estate to any and every bride!
We were so happy with our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding at Rocky’s Lake Estate! The venue is so beautiful and picturesque, and our coordinator, Courtney Morris, literally took care of every detail from the beautiful decorations to bustling Anna’s dress. No stress. No last minute details to worry about. Just time to enjoy all the special moments of the day. We really wanted to have a wooden cross to use in the background of the ceremony and when we mentioned this to Courtney, she checked with the owner and they built one! That is just one example of the many ways she went above and beyond to exceed our expectations and to help Anna and Jacob have their dream wedding. All of this during a pandemic! They created a safe environment for our wedding and no one got sick! The day couldn’t have been more perfect and we are so thank for the RLE team! We have no reservations in giving them the highest recommendation. Happy Wedding Planning!!
Rocky's Lake Estate was the perfect venue in every way! The whole place is breathtakingly beautiful, inside and out. They have so many options for decorations and are willing to accommodate most requests. Candice was AMAZING at helping us plan, keeping up with details, and making our wedding day run smoothly. She really helped me envision my perfect day, and brought it to life! The bride and groom suites are well kept and spacious. The staff are super friendly and willing to help however they can. All of our guests were blown away, and our special day was truly magical! We cannot recommend them enough!
I cannot say enough good things about this venue. Candice was a dream to work with and understood my vision completely. The staff made sure the day flowed perfectly! The place looked so gorgeous for our wedding, all of our guests still talk about it and say our December wedding looked like something out of a movie. Highly recommend!!!
I couldn't have imagined a more perfect venue for our wedding!!! We got so many compliments on how picturesque and fairy tale-ish it was! Candice and the whole Rockys Lake Estate team were flawless in making sure we had the most perfect day!
I cannot say enough good things about Rocky’s Lake Estate! Rocky’s Lake Estate (RLE) was truly the perfect backdrop for our dream wedding. Every square inch of the venue is so, so beautiful. Truly every guest I talked to the night of our wedding said it was the most beautiful wedding venue they had ever been to. People are still talking about how beautiful our wedding was months later. Candice Rich was my venue coordinator. She is an absolute DREAM to work with! She truly does anything and everything in her power to make sure your day is everything you have dreamed of. She is extremely responsive and helpful with all aspects of your wedding. She is so knowledgeable, and has great relationships with other vendors which is so, so helpful. The great thing about RLE is that they already own all of the décor you could ever dream of, no matter what your style or theme is. This means no worrying about renting or buying décor (and having to figure out what to do with it all later), no worrying about DIY projects that don’t turn our right, and huge savings in the floral area because the florist can use RLE’s vases and other floral design elements! The bridal suite is absolutely gorgeous. It’s so comfortable to get ready in and it’s a beautiful backdrop for getting ready photos. Although I didn’t see the groom’s suite in person, my husband and his groomsman really loved it! RLE is a photographer’s dream. There are endless places to take photos, no matter what style you’re looking for. No matter what time of day it is, the natural lighting is so beautiful. At night, RLE has the whole venue perfectly illuminated. The gazebo is an amazing perk! We had s’mores there during our reception, which was a fun treat for kids and adults alike. The boathouse bar is the perfect place for a picture-perfect cocktail hour. It’s great to have a bar outside and inside the reception area, so no matter where in the venue your guests are, they can grab a drink quickly. RLE is constantly making improvements to their venue and the services they offer. If you’re thinking about how to make your dream wedding, I highly recommend starting with Rocky’s Lake Estate!
I had my wedding at Rocky’s Lake Estates in July! I knew from the moment we pulled into the venue that this is where I want to get married! It is such a beautiful place! The staff is AMAZING! They made planning this wedding so stress free! They are so helpful and their planners know what they are doing! They made everything look so beautiful! I couldn’t imagine a better place to say I Do! By the way... the bridal suite.... SO BEAUTIFUL!
We had our wedding at Rocky's Lake Estate at the end of August. I can't imagine a more beautiful venue. The property is secluded and very fairytale like. There are trees all around and a beautiful lake. The service was also top notch. I was originally a little hesitant when I learned their prices, but we took a tour anyway. They do all the planning and coordinating as well as the decorations. The price more than makes up for all they do. They handled so much for me, let me know what all I needed to do and when. Candice and the team were all so kind, helpful, and professional. Day of went so smooth too and everything was amazing and beautiful. They kept us on track and gave us an assistant to help with whatever we needed throughout the day. Thanks so much to all the staff at Rocky's! I highly recommend this venue!
Rocky’s Lake Estate was the last venue we visited and we completely fell in love with it. The property is magical! You have to see it in person! We got married on July 27th, 2019 and we could not be happier. Courtney Sheffield and her team did an amazing job to make sure our day was perfect. They definitely exceeded our expectations. We continue to receive comments from our guests saying how beautiful and organized everything was. I wish we could do it all over again! Thank you Courtney and the RLE family for making our dream wedding come true!
From the moment we came to Rocky’s Lake Estate, everyone was very professional and personable. It is SUCH a beautiful venue and Brandon and I knew it was right for us! Candice worked with us predominantly and she goes above and BEYOND to make sure the couple is happy. She is the kind of personal who will sit with you and talk through every detail. We are very thankful to know her. On the day of the wedding, the entire staff was all hands on deck. Our wedding will be one we will cherish forever and Rocky’s Lake Estate player a huge part in that. We love you and highly recommend this venue! Also, we were married in a Catholic Church and still chose it for our reception. The beauty is quite breathtaking and worth every penny!
We fell in love with this venue when we pulled up to the gates and saw the lake. It was exactly what we were looking for! We wanted an outdoor wedding, but also wanted a gorgeous reception. The location is perfect! All of our guests were amazed that the venue existed! Several friends came up to us and said that they wish they had known about it when they were getting married. The suites to get ready in were absolutely amazing!
We loved that they had open houses where we could see the venue in action and get to meet the vendors. Everyone on their vendor list is top notch and will deliver an exceptional product!
The only thing that could have been improved was communication. There were a few times were multiple emails had to be sent before receiving a response. The day of there were several details that weren't brought up during the meetings, and the details that were talked about during the meetings were forgotten. It was nothing too major, but it did add unneccesary stress.
We had our wedding at Rocky's Lake Estate on May 25, 2019, and I don't think I could have asked for a better venue, and more importantly, a better team at the venue to help make the day absolutely perfect! Candice Long was our primary coordinator, and words cannot describe how amazing her and her team were! From the beginning, they made sure we had everything covered throughout the planning process. They provide a checklist as you go through the planning process and even set up a few in person meetings before the wedding to help keep your ducks in a row. I can't stress enough how amazing Candice was! She was there from Day 1 up until the end of the wedding helping out to make sure I did not have to worry about a single detail on wedding day. If you are in search of a wedding venue, I strongly urge you to check this venue out and meet with one of their team members. You won't be disappointed!
Thank you Candice and team for everything! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!
Our wedding was absolutely magical at Rocky’s Lake estate! We’ve been encouraging all of our engaged friends to go check it out because the minute you see it you fall in love! The entire process was completely stress less for me thanks to the amazing wedding coordinators that work for the venue. We wish we could get married all over again just to experience it one more time!
We have had the awesome opportunity to work with this venue many times! Rocky's always has their clients' desires at the heart of what they do. The staff is very attentive, the grounds are GORGEOUS and the location is super convenient.
We love working at Rocky's and can't wait to go back!
Where do I even begin? Candice and her team at Rocky's went above and beyond our expectations to pull off the wedding of our dreams. Everyone at the venue is SO easy to work with, and they make the planning process so so simple. I truly could not have done this without Candice. Our guests LOVED the venue, and there's so much space for everyone to have a blast. If a little issue came up (like me inviting too many people) the Rocky's team always had a solution. They took the stress out of the planning, and they had the day of coordination down to perfection. They literally think of EVERYTHING so that you don't have to. Plus, you have the option to leave in a helicopter, and I can assure you, that will be the best wedding day surprise to your guests EVER. I wouldn't change a single thing about our special day at Rocky's!
There are literally no words that could ever describe my experience at Rocky's Lake Estate. This venue goes ABOVE and BEYOND to accommodate anything and everything you want/need leading up to your wedding day and even more so on the big day. Courtney Sheffield was so easy to work with and listening to all of my wish list and then made all of it come true and more. We had the most amazing day from starting in the suites early, being transported around the venue for pictures, hidden before the ceremony, and dancing the night away. The landscape was in pristine condition and looked beautiful for all my guests. I had multiple venues appointments booked, after seeing this place and falling in love I cancelled them all. Best. Decision. Ever. This was the first one I saw and I just knew it was the one. I cannot say enough and recommend this place times 100000. Thank you so much to Courtney and her team for constantly supporting us, keeping us on time, and allowing us to have the most special, stress-free night of our lives! CHEERS!
I cannot express how magical this venue is. Our wedding was nothing short of incredible and it was mostly due to the amazing scenery, thoughtful touches, and flexibility to create your own vision. Candice, our wedding coordinator, was with us throughout the whole planning process. She took ALL the stress out of the wedding day. From all the meetings up until the day of I knew our wedding would be amazing and all because of her. Our wedding day ran so smoothly. At least half of our guests commented on how it was the most beautiful and classiest venue they had ever seen, and even mentioned how everything ran so smoothly. The value you get with Rocky’s is also incredible- they have ALL the decor, which was huge for us. Their preferred vendors were equally amazing. I will definitely be looking into having future functions at Rocky’s, as they do more than weddings!! Thank you guys for making our wedding day so magical!!
I just got married here on the 23rd and everything went so perfectly! I wouldn’t have wanted to get married anywhere else but here. Everything was absolutely beautiful and so very well organized! They took everything I had in my mind and brought it to life! It was the absolute best day ever ❤️
I don’t even know where to start when I write this review because I have so many amazing things to say about Rocky’s Lake Estate! My HUSBAND (so much fun to call him that now) and me got married there this past weekend and it was truly the best day of my life! We didn’t know about RLE initially and were almost positive we were going to get married elsewhere.... until one night at dinner when a friend saw us out and congratulated us on our engagement and told us him and his wife got married at RLE and before we decide anything check it out because we will for sure change our minds! Wellll.... we did!!! Our wedding was so special because of RLE! Courtney and Candice are the most caring and hardworking duo you can get. Not to mention “The Rocky” of RLE shuttled me away to avoid guests arriving and head to the bridal suite and made sure I had a beverage and was completely comfortable before I walked down the aisle. They make sure everything looks beautiful, is special and that you have the best day! You don’t have to worry about anything on your special day. They have it planned so perfectly that all you need to do it enjoy your day! As far as the property at RLE... the pictures online are pretty but in my opinion don’t do it justice!!!! It’s even more spectacular in person! From the fountains to the Chandeliers to the rustic furniture, gorgeous bridal suite to get ready, nice grooms suite with a pool table, golf carts for you guest if needed, waterfall on the windows, flower wall, decorations, pretty lake with a gazebo, the lights that looks so beautiful at night, to a perfectly decorated arbor and aisle I don’t think it could get any better! So... if you are a bride and looking for a place that makes you feel at home and a princess bride at the same time, I challenge you before you book anywhere else to just stop by Rocky’s Lake Estate because I know you will fall in love... I did!
Where do I begin... My husband and I were married at RLE on 4/28/2018. We knew we wanted to have our wedding at RLE as soon as we pulled up to the gate. Everything about this venue is breathtaking! Candice and her team were extremely nice, professional, and made sure the planning process was easy and stress free. The staff made sure that every detail was covered on the day of and that our wedding day was perfect! Our family and friends are still talking about how amazing the venue and wedding day were. I could on and on about RLE because EVERYTHING was absolutely beautiful!
Where do I even begin? First off ... every square inch of this venue is beautiful. They have plants everywhere. They also offer tons of options on decor which took sooo much stress out of the equation. Candice (the wedding coordinator) is literally the perfect combination of sweet/but takes no ish. She made the day so smooth & helped with everything and anything she could. 10/10 recommend.
This venue is just AMAZING. I had searched through many photos and went to a few venues that were pretty picturesque, but this venue blew it all away. It was so convenient, the staff is young and very flexible with what you want and love new ideas, and as the couple getting married, they do not want you to worry about ANYTHING! They were so wonderful to work with and I cannot say enough. I had the best day and I mean everyone, EVERYONE, that went to the wedding talked about how amazing the venue. We could not have chosen better!
Our daughter was married here on 10/27/2018. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting and beautiful wedding! Candice and the staff supported and help guide us throughout the whole planning process. When the day finally arrived we felt confident that everything would be taken care of so that we would be able to enjoy our daughters wedding. They did not disappoint! Everything came together beautifully and made for a perfect wedding experience for us all. They have a system that works and we highly recommend Rocky's if you are looking for a beautiful setting, a support staff to meet your every need, and a place to make wedding dreams come true. Thank you Rocky's for helping create some memories we will cherish forever!
BEST VENUE EVER! Thank you so much for making my best friends day complete! Candice met our every need before we even knew we needed it. She was always 5 steps ahead!
My son is getting married next Friday at Rocky’s. We have had the best experience with Candice Long as our coordinator through what we assumed would be a very stressful process. It has not been! She has been great at staying on top of things and easing our minds. She is very professional and always knows just what is needed for our situation. I recommend her and RLE highly!!
My wedding day was absolutely perfect in every way. Candice and the team at Rockys made my vision come true, they were all AMAZING. I was completely stress free the day of and everything ran so smoothly. The venue is so beautiful and I received so many compliments from my guests saying how much they enjoyed it. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this venue for your fairytale wedding!
My husband and I got married here on September 28 and everything was so beautiful!!! The staff was so helpful and did a really great job!! Everyone loved the wedding!!! I am so glad we chose Rocky’S Lake Estate!!!
I do not have enough amazing things to say about this venue!! It is a little slice of heaven right in Woodstock! Candice made our day run smoothly and perfectly! Throughout my entire planning process she was amazing and answered any silly little question I had. Starting the planning process, I had so many worries of all the things that could go wrong. Candice quickly showed me that there was absolutely no need to worry, I was in great hands, and she was correct! Rocky also made sure that the helipad was ready right in time so that I could have my dream helicopter departure! I could go on and on about this venue. The staff and venue is beyond perfect!
Wow!! Where do I begin...we got married on 9/8/18 at Rocky's and we couldn't have picked a more perfect place for our big day!! To start, Rocky's is so accommodating with anything and everything. The entire staff at Rocky's wants to make sure your day is absolutely perfect!!! Candice, the event coordinator, is absolutely AMAZING!!! I am a "perfectionist" and a "planner" so as you can imagine wedding planning was stressful for me, but Candice made sure to always ease the stress, offer advice, and help bring it altogether!! She is the EXPERT when it comes to planning a wedding. There were so many things I would have never thought of that she made sure to mention and take care of. The day of she was the "savior" of the day making sure everything went as smoothly as possible. She even redecorated my cake when the baker dropped off a cake that looked nothing like what I had requested. In addition, what other venue provides all the decor for the wedding? So many people waste money on decor that they aren't ever going to use again. Rocky's provides it all. I highly recommend booking your wedding at Rocky's.
Our wedding coordinator Candice was on the top of everything. I felt so comfortable with her and felt as if I had known her forever!!!.
Big girls catering was just amazing!!!!. Vita did such an amazing job with managing everything.
Rocky's Is a beautiful location...just so comfortable and stunning.
I knew I would love this place from the moment I stepped foot onto their property! Candice went literally above and beyond to make my dream wedding come to life. It literally rained on my parade and it wasn't supposed to until the day of leaving little time to move everything per last minute back-up plan. She was willing to make everyone wait just for me to have my ceremony outside (which I opted not to do), she was not only an amazing coordinator she was an outstanding support/mentor throughout a crazy, stressful, and exciting day! Rocky's exceeded our expectations and we will cherish our memories spent on the best day of our lives forever.
We got married at Rocky's on May 19th and everything was absolutely perfect! The whole planning process went very smoothly. All of my questions were answered promptly, the meetings went as scheduled, they were very accommodating to our vendors and made sure our day went perfectly. The staff was outstanding and rolled with every punch that came their way. If anything went wrong on our wedding day, we had no idea because Courtney and the rest of Rocky's staff took care of it. May was the perfect time of year to get married at Rocky's because of the beautiful landscape. It made for such a magical backdrop for the day. We also were so pleased at how much Rocky's expanded since the time we booked. It just kept getting better and better. We highly recommend Rocky's Lake Estate! Such a treasure in our little town!
Where do I even begin...
Our wedding at Rocky's surpassed all expectations and was beyond the wedding of our dreams. The property is magical and the staff is truly passionate about making sure YOUR day is amazing. Candice is so wonderful and I cant thank her enough for working with me for 14 months to make sure every detail of our wedding was perfect- and it was. If you are thinking of getting married here, you have found your place! The RLE family is going to take care of you and your guests will talk about it forever.. we just had the wedding of the year as far as any of my guests are concerned! I am SO happy that we will have such wonderful memories of our wedding for the rest of our lives.
Thanks Rocky's, thanks Candice!
Everyone at Rocky's was absolutely wonderful. They made sure my wedding went smoothly and was stress free. I absolutely recommend them as a wedding venue.
Where do I even begin? Rocky’s Lake Estate in itself is a beautiful, amazing place. It is so gorgeous, day and night. Such a hidden gem! But what really makes RLE so great, is the folks who run it. Candice was our primary wedding coordinator, and she is literally, AMAZING. Her and the other RLE staff take care of EVERYTHING on the day of the wedding, down to every last detail. They make everything go so smoothly and totally stress-free for the bride and groom. Candice had wedding planning meetings with us all the way from a year out, 6 months, a few months, one month, and the week of our wedding. She goes over everything with you to make sure that every detail is correct and the way you want it, so you can have the perfect wedding of your dreams. We honestly could not have picked a better venue. I would highly recommend anyone to check out RLE if you are looking for an all around amazing wedding venue and experience!
We had our wedding at Rocky's on 9/29/17 and it was absolutely fantastic! Candice, Courtney and Elizabeth are so kind, helpful and relaxed which helps during what can become a stressful time. They even were incredible with helping out with our two year old flower girls. The venue is absolutely beautiful and our guests were very impressed. The price is good, you can pick your own vendors, they have pretty much every decoration you could need already there, and you can buy your own alcohol. Wedding days are hectic no matter how organized or planned out they are. This crew will stay positive and have your back. I would recommend this place to anyone!
Rocky's Lake Estate was the perfect venue for our Tolkien-inspired wedding! The staff was wonderfully accommodating, and everything went so smoothly throughout the night! I will definitely recommend Rocky's to any future brides!
The perfect venue! Candice and team are truly the best and they made my day run worry free and memorable
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this GORGEOUS wedding venue and the incredible staff that runs it. Everything turned out better than I could have imagined, they were far above what was even expected. All the stress was taken off of me because they literally do it all in one spot, which is absolutely the way to do it when planning a wedding. They are personal, kind, generous and a dream to work with. SO SO thankful for all they did for us! This is the BEST place to have a perfect wedding day!
My daughter was married at Rocky's on 9.9.17. I cannot say enough about how pleased I am with everything! Candace was our coordinator, and she was such a tremendous help, and has so much to offer because of all her experience. My daughter is very detail oriented, and had a lot of questions and requests. Candace was very accommodating, and always gave her good advice and reminded her not to worry because she had it all under control:) Well, she was right! On wedding day, I was nervously trying to make sure everything was going as planned, to try and take some of the worry and stress off my daughter. I was in awe at just how organized everything was "behind the scenes", from working with the vendors to communicating with the entire wedding party. When we arrived, the grounds crew was working to put the final touches on the venue, and the RLE crew was busy putting out all the decorations and flowers, just as we had requested! Your every need is taken care of on wedding day- no matter what! My daughter had ordered her groom a gift to give him on wedding day, but it had been lost in the mail. After arranging with the post office to have it delivered to the venue on the day of the wedding, Candace and Elizabeth made sure to pick it up, wrap it, and hand-deliver the package to the groom!! That's the kind of service you get at Rocky's!! Even the sweet little guy on the golf cart was busy going back and forth to make sure everyone at the bride's and groom's suites had all they needed. The grounds at Rocky's are absolutely beautiful and well-kept. All of our guests were very complementary at not only how beautiful the venue was, but at how no detail had been overlooked. I am one happy momma, and my daughter is a very happy bride! Thank you Candace and RLE staff for helping to make sure this wedding was perfect!!
I had my wedding at Rocky's Lake Estate in June of 2017. Rocky's exceeded all of my expectations and made my dream wedding become reality. From the first time I saw their page on the Knot, I fell in love with the venue. Rockys was the first venue I visited and I was sold after meeting Candice, my wedding coordinator. She is a very busy person plan
