The Carolyn Baldwin Lake Pavilion

eautiful place not only for weddings but for other events as well.

mprovements and planting flowers made the venue even more breathe taken. We loved it!

vendor recommendations, or jump right in and help us with anything we needed. The venue was simple but beautiful, and was exactly the kind of place we were looking for. Joanna even let us fish on our wedding day haha! She was great to work with and the venue was very reasonably priced. We also used her service to rent all bouquets, centerpieces, arbor florals, aisle décor, and other floral arrangements. Everything she put together for us was stunning, and being able to rent it was such a nice option to have. My husband and I would 100% recommend this venue and owner to anyone looking for a beautiful little outdoor spot to get married.

with. I was planning the wedding from New York, so I was really scared about all the details and worried because I wasn't able to come see things in person. The whole time Joanna was super helpful and made sure we had all the information we needed to have a wonderful day. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, no matter which season. We had our wedding right as the leaves were at peak foliage and it was beautiful. It was a little chilly the day of, but we were able to have the propane heaters running underneath the pavilion and all the guests had a great time. The sound system is really good, and it's so convenient to have the ceremony and reception in one place. The only caveat is that the pavilion is kind of isolated from anything else to do on the weekends except maybe some walking and hiking. However, this is compensated for in the price. You will be hard pressed to find a better financial deal with the offerings and capacity of the Lake Pavilion. GREAT if you are on a budget, and in my opinion you don't lose out on anything by picking this venue over something more expensive. Thanks Joanna, for everything!

he ceremony and reception in the same place, and the kind attention to detail of the staff really made our special day amazing. The lake is gorgeous, the pavilion is lovely, and there was everything we needed. Our guests all complimented everything extensively. Plus, the pricing was very affordable, coordinating everything was easy, and Joanna was so helpful. If you’re considering having your wedding here, DO IT!!! You won’t regret it.

decor. Joanna is very responsive and provides great advice and communication.

r limited) at the venue and it made it very easy to not get distracted from the busy everyday life! I loved it! My guests were engaging and danced more than I could've imagined. We were immersed in the wonderful evening! I appreciate all of Joanna hard work for making the venue beautiful! She was updating me every step of the way (in the event of rain), for rain they had beautiful tent walls they could put up, in the event of cold weather they had 5-6 giant beautiful silver heaters! The day was so amazing! 10 / 10 would recommend.

oothly. We could not have asked for a better venue! The venue is breathtaking. It was absolutely beyond anything I had envisioned. I would recommend this venue to any couple that looking for an oasis to celebrate their day!

we get compliments all the time on the photos. Our guest are still talking about our wedding almost 2 years later. If we could get married again every year there, we would! You can’t go wrong

lan options (had it setup the night before) and was super flexible the entire time. I would also like to mention that Joanna was my photographer and did all of our floral arrangements too. The venue is set up with ample parking, a a cute little bridal suite, a mini kitchen(very helpful for the caters), wonderful restrooms and of course the gorgeous pavilion with the lake and ceremony space right behind it. Also, all the extras that she has avalivle are nice too. It is like a one stop shop for wedding awesomeness! I would 100% recommend this venue and urge you to check it out!

I highly recommend destination location Carolyn Baldwin Lake Pavilion in quaint Farmville, VA, and suggest renting the Lake House as a bonus to the get away.

not! The lake house is also a nice little touch. Fully stocked with everything you need and in such a pretty location. I would recommend this venue to any bride!

d friends. JoAnna was most helpful in providing guidance and support for our wedding preparations. The weather was perfect for an Autumn wedding, as the colorful leaves provided a great background and reflected on the lake. Everyone was relaxed, comfortable and had a great time! Also, the atmosphere was so kid-friendly and the children had fun, along with the adults.

specially since we had it on a monday. I would definitely recommend this location for any couple!

Owner who was so helpful in helping plan, suggesting decor and takIng videos. she was there for planning , rehearsal and setting up the sound system and the wedding. we never felt abandoned. we were also given freedom to set up a few days before and could clean up the day after which was such a blessing as we were all so emotionally spent after the wedding. one woman fromD. Came to me and said she has been to 20 vip weddings, but this was the best ever!
