We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Lakeside Villa on July 20, 2019. We had our ceremony outside, and the beautiful grounds created the perfect scenery for our ceremony! The newly renovated ballroom looked amazing for our recepti...on! We had a long engagement, and were able to attend multiple open houses at Lakeside Villa prior to our wedding. This was incredibly helpful, as we were able to meet vendors who we ultimately ended up hiring. It was reassuring knowing we were hiring vendors that Lakeside Villa recommended. We loved how much was included with our package, such as catering, limo transportation, linens, and the florist. The package also provides you with a choice of 2 DJs and 3 bakeries for your wedding cake. I really liked that this still gave us choices, but eliminated the need to spend hours researching our options. On the day of, Amanda and Trish were great! They took care of absolutely everything for us! The food was delicious too. My husband and I loved that they gave us dinners to take home- we didn’t have to worry about cooking the next day while preparing for our honeymoon. The only real difficulty we had during the planning process was ordering the invitations. The response cards did not arrive as we ordered, which Amanda told us about right away and gave us the option to reorder, which we did. Amanda sent us the updated proofs of the response card, but it took a lot of back and forth before the typos were corrected.
Overall, we are very happy with choosing Lakeside Villa as our wedding venue. We truly had an amazing, beautiful wedding and we’ve had multiple guests telling us how much fun they had. The day went by so fast, and we wish we could go back and relive it!
