Working with Kacey was amazing! It was the most stress free planning ever. Day of was so seamless and the staff was wonderful and attentive always checking in on us to see if we needed anything. Venue is GORGEOUS!
My husband and I booked with Saphire Event Group for our wedding to be at the Lakehouse before it was going to be renovated and they really brought the vision to life. I didn't feel like I needed to add any additional decoration to the venue. Perfect setting for a clean airy atmosphere. Victoria was our coordinator and she was great the whole time! Everyone at the Lakehouse/Saphire Events was very helpful and always quick to respond to any questions! :)
We had our wedding on 9/7/2024 and we truly cannot stop talking about it. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful but the staff that run the weddings are amazing. We had Victoria for our wedding coordinator and made the entire process and wedding day perfect there is not a moment of the day that I can say I was stressed out or worried about anything because I knew that she would be able to handle it. This also brings me to my bridal attendant Kim, she was again nothing short of amazing, I barely had a second to think I needed something without turning to her with whatever it was. The venue is beautiful, the staff is truly amazing and the food, to no surprise, was delicious. Between us and our friends and family we all can say how amazing our wedding was and I will always push people to get married within the Sapphire Event Group because of how easy and enjoyable Victoria, Kim and the rest of the staff made our wedding.
Any questions?
The Lakehouse has been such an amazing experience. Victoria was our day of coordinator and she was so amazing. She made all of our dreams come true! We had a hiccup with one of the displays and she came up with a great idea and fixed it completely! My wedding came out so beautifully with her help and all of the staff! Thank you so much!
The Lakehouse was an absolute dream come true! Victoria my wedding producer at the lake house was amazing to work with and she did anything and everything to make our day as special as it was. The crew at the lake house were kind, friendly, and absolutely spectacular to work with I could have asked for a better venue and staff to work with . THANK YOU so much to all of you who made our day so beautiful!
Our August wedding at the Lakehouse was a dream come true! It was truly the perfect day thanks to the wonderful staff. They had every moment of the day planned perfectly We cannot thank Kacey enough for her incredible work as our event coordinator! From the very beginning, she was a beacon of organization, creativity, and support, turning our vision into a seamless dream.
Kacey's attention to detail was amazing. Her suggestions were always spot-on, reflecting her deep understanding of what would work best for our theme and budget.
The planning process was stress-free thanks to Kacey's proactive communication through the planning process. She kept us on track with timelines, checked in regularly, and was always available to answer our questions and calm any anxieties.
On the wedding day, The Lakehouse coordination was flawless.
The entire Lakehouse team was a true partner in making our dreams come true. We highly recommend The Lakehouse to any couple looking for a wedding venue and team who will go above and beyond to ensure their special day is perfect.
-Abby H. August 2nd 2024 Bride
Our wedding at The Lakehouse was everything we dreamed of and more! We highly recommend getting married here. Kacey, the event coordinator was incredible, and Becky the bridal assistant was great! Thank you! 💗
I really could not recommend having a wedding at The Lakehouse enough, or any of the Saphire locations. The entire staff is beyond experienced and organized and literally every step of wedding planning could not have been more seamless. As we began our planning, we booked a majority of our vendors from Saphire’s preferred vendors list. Not only were these vendors amazing as well, but they also spoke SO highly about working with Saphire, which was a huge benefit. I also could not speak more highly of our coordinator, Victoria. We met with her for the firs time ~4 months out from our wedding, but she was always a phone call or email away. As the first of my friends and family to get married, I often felt overwhelmed, but Victoria could not have been more helpful and knowledgeable with helping me make so many decisions. Victoria exudes the confidence in herself and her team that was so reassurring, I knew as soon as I arrived at our venue on wedding day, I wouldn’t have to think about a single thing. Our wedding day was an absolute dream. The Lakehouse is clearly such a beautiful venue, but the space is operated by the most kind, enthusiastic, experienced and detail-oriented staff. I have already recommended having a wedding with Saphire to engaged friends, and I hope to be on the guest side of another of their weddings soon :)
My husband and I recently got married at the Lakehouse on August 22, 2024. We had the pleasure of being assigned Victoria as our wedding producer and she was nothing short of AMAZING! It was more than a pleasure to work with her and the SEG team. We also got Becky as our wedding attendant the day of our wedding and she was fantastic, very attentive and helpful throughout the entire night. Victoria is super responsive, kind, knowledgeable and just overall FUN! I can't say enough about how great she was with us. We were very nervous about saying yes to a venue that was going to undergo construction but the venue looks much better than the drawings we were shown and was literally the perfect canvas for our big day. The food was amazing, we were so happy with everything we picked and even heard some of our picky guests couldn't stop eating the food which made us so happy! Highly recommend the Lakehouse, Becky & Victoria to make your special day perfect!!
Victoria was absolutely amazing and made sure our experience with the sapphire group + Lakehouse Venue leading up to and day of the wedding was both seamless and stress free! She literally thought of every single detail and made sure we knew exactly what to expect so there were no surprises day of! The venue was stunning and I would recommend using Victoria to anyone!
just had our wedding at the Lakehouse last weekend and it was the most perfect venue. When we booked, renovations hadn’t even started yet and we booked off of just their inspiration photos. We were a little anxious to see what the final look would be but they surpassed all of our expectations. Victoria, our wedding coordinator, was nothing short of amazing. She’s so personable and easy to get along with. She is so easy to get in touch with and answers every question with care and excitement, no matter how small. She treats the bridal couple as her family and encourages you to call or text with any issues or questions at any time of day. We were so lucky to have her! Becky was my bridal attendant that day and Victoria had said she was “an angel on earth” and she wasn’t wrong. She bustled my dress without question. She helped me out of my heels and got on the ground to buckle my sandals. She had a drink for me whenever I needed it. And she made sure to grab a few of all of our favors to make sure we had some to take home. She thinks of everything and it was so appreciated. I honestly don’t have enough good things to say about the lakehouse and it’s staff. Our day was perfect. The views and scenery were perfect. The vibes were perfect. I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day. 5 stars all around
I'm an officiant and recently worked a wedding at the Lakehouse. I worked the wedding with Victoria - she was very professional, and was on top of all the details! We communicated before the ceremony to make sure the processional went smoothly, which it did, and to make sure the couple and guests knew everything they needed to know at the right time. The venue was recently renovated, and it looks absolutely stunning! I would definitely recommend any couple to look into having their wedding here.

We got married at The Lakehouse on 08/08/2024!! It was the most perfect day. The whole planning process was made soo much easier with the help of Kacey! She was truly AMAZING and such a lifesaver, we were SO lucky to have her. She made sure everything ran smoothly & that our entire day was exactly how we wanted it to be. Our day of coordinator, Becky, was also AMAZING - she was nearby the entire night in case we needed anything and was always checking in. The strap on my dress broke during the first look because it got caught on the boutonniere, but Becky was able to save the day & sew it back on for me so I was not struggling with having to pull up my dress all night long! Becky also bustled my dress for me since my sister forgot how to bustle it (thanks for everything, Becky!!). Becky kept everything organized and packed everything up at the end of the night so all my sister & brother-in-law had to do was put it in their car. They said the venue did everything (they were expecting to gather everything and pack it up!) and said it was absolutely amazing what a huge help the team there was all night long!
When we booked, the venue was under complete renovation and down to the studs - but just seeing the outdoor ceremony area, I knew this was the venue for us. The venue turned out to be absolutely GORGEROUS, better than we could have ever imagined. The guests also could not believe how beautiful it was - we even had guests saying if they got married again, they would choose this venue! It is so simple and elegant - you really don't need much decor - the venue is SO pretty by itself, indoor and outdoor!
We also loved that we did not have to find a caterer as the venue does the catering - the guests raved about the passed apps & dinner entrees!! You can't beat a pretty venue & amazing food!
If we had to do the planning all over again, we would 10000% still choose this venue. LOVED it so much!!!!
We recently had our wedding at the Lakehouse and I cannot say enough good things about the team and the venue. We were lucky enough to have Kacey Sharpe as our event coordinator who helped us every step of the way! She was amazing to work with! When we initially booked our venue it had not been renovated and we were blow away with how the renovations came out. It was truly one of the nicest venues I have ever seen! All of our guest could not get over how beautiful the venue was! The day of our wedding went so smoothly! Kacey and Becky were there every step of the way and made for such a stress free day. We could not have been happier with this venue and would highly recommend this venue and team!
I love love love this venue! We recently had our wedding at the newly renovated ... THE LAKEHOUSE and honestly can’t thank the entire LAKEHOUSE team enough for flawlessly executing our wedding! We could not have been more happy with how our wedding turned out, as it was touch-n-go for a little while with the weather!! But despite the potential rain clouds our ceremony was absolutely perfect!! Our event coordinator, Victoria, did a great job and handled everything with such calmness, grace, and professionalism! She was great throughout the planning process. Our day-of wedding attendant Becky could not have been any better! Her attention to detail and recognizing our every need was refreshing and delightful. We could not of been happier with the team at THE LAKEHOUSE.
Every time we went for meetings, we always got a little more excited for our wedding because the venue was going to be gorgeous and IT WAS!!! THE LAKEHOUSE and THE LAKEHOUSE team is truly the best and did an amazing job with this venue!! The food and service at the wedding was top-notch–all of our guests had the best time and have been raving about how beautiful of an event it was! Thank You, THE LAKEHOUSE for providing us with such a wonderful experience.
The SEG team is fantastic. You can't go wrong with booking with one of their venues. We got married at the Lakehouse and could not have had a better experience. The venue is stunning and brand new as of Summer 2024. The mix of indoor/outdoor space was absolutely perfect for our wedding day.
The staff and team is really what made it all possible. We had the pleasure and joy of working with Victoria, Event Producer and she made everything seamless. Having an event Producer really took the stress off of planning since there was someone checking in with us along the way. We really got to know her and she got to know us (we're sad that part of wedding planning is over!)
Our day of wedding team was just as wonderful! We wish we got to meet them sooner. They took such good care of us.
Highly recommend booking your wedding at the Lakehouse or any other SEG venue! (make sure you ask for Victoria!)
This venue is just as stunning as the photos. It has to be the most aesthetically pleasing places I've seen in a long time. They truly thought of everything, from the stunning outdoor views, to the landscaping, the large bar area and the massive windows. Additionally, I have to thank our sales rep Meaghan Gurska who was so helpful and informative. I had her personal cell number and she was open to me texting at any time to ask questions which most other venues didn't do. It made me feel like I made the right decision because my fiance and I were taken care of. I cannot wait to say I do!
Our wedding at The Lakehouse could not have been more picture perfect. Kacey and her team had every detail planned absolutely perfectly from the timing of the evening down to the intricate details. The space was absolutely beautiful and Kacey’s team had every bit of the evening under control so we could enjoy our night without worrying about anything!
Our wedding was the second weekend after the renovations. The venue looked absolutely beautiful and every detail was executed perfectly. We had about 205 people attending our wedding and the room still felt big. Victoria R was incredible. She was there with us from the beginning and made sure our night was perfect. She is fun to work with and wants you to have the best night of your life. Although our day was rainy, Victoria made sure to tell us when there was a break in the rain for perfect sunset photos. We are so lucky to have had her by our side while planning our big day… and a HUGE shout out to the chefs. Everybody raved about the food. It was so delicious and hot! Thank you Victoria and the rest of the Lakehouse staff for making our night an epic one!
Our wedding experience at The Lakehouse was phenomenal. The renovations truly came out stunning and exactly like the renderings. Kacey and her team were so helpful in creating the most perfect wedding day for us!! If you are looking for a unique, modern, and brand-new venue, this is the one!
I had my wedding reception here in September and I can not say enough great things about my experience. Victoria and SEG made the process of wedding planning SO smooth. Victoria was always quick to respond with a thorough answer. She gave amazing recommendations from decor to vendors. She was also beyond helpful on our actual wedding day and had every last detail covered. We had so much fun planning our wedding with her! The venue itself is beautiful and right on the lake and the food delicious. I highly recommend to anyone in need of a wedding venue!
We were married on 8.11.23! Victoria and the whole team at Sapphire Group were so amazing on the day of our wedding and the days leading up to it. I had a lot of questions, and they were very responsive each time. We got married the The Lakehouse, and the views were amazing. The food was incredible and people still talk about it! The vibe was calm and their decor has really come along, it went right along with my style. I know they are still renovating, so I am sure it will be even more amazing in the coming years. We wish we could do it all over again! :)
Would definitely recommend working with this amazing venue to anyone who wants an unexpected beautiful lakeside venue tucked in a tiny town. We can’t say enough good things about Saphire Event Group and their work with the Lakehouse. The venue was bought by SEG early on in our planning process which made us nervous. However, from our initial planning meeting earlier this year through our wedding day we had such a pleasant experience working with the whole team! Specific shout out for Victoria - she handled all of our questions and concerns in a timely manner! We felt so supported by her and she was very prompt and friendly in all responses to our many questions during planning. After the big day, which we LOVED, we got so many compliments and positive comments from our family and friends on the venue as a whole. 10/10 would recommend!
My husband and I had our wedding at The Lakehouse on 9/9/2023. It was a beautiful day and came out perfectly because of our wondering wedding coordinator Victoria!! The staff was excellent and took care of everything! We couldn’t have asked for a better venue and staff for our special day!
From myself and my husband, if you visit this venue and fall in love like we did, jump in with both feet! They even changed companies mid-year when we were still planning with them and they did their best to make the transition seamless. Victoria especially is one of the best humans I've ever met. She helped ease our anxiety, gave us advice and validation, and went above and beyond to make sure our day was what we wanted even with a few wrenches thrown in the works (like the venue's first tornado warning!).
We had an incredible experience with Sapphire Event Group and we loved having our wedding at The Lakehouse! We planned our wedding in 7 months and the entire team at Sapphire was so helpful throughout the whole process. We were so impressed with how much they modernized the venue in such a short period of time after closing on the property! The Lakehouse is absolutely gorgeous as is and we can’t imagine how beautiful it will be after it is renovated this year. All of our guests loved the food and had so much fun. We would HIGHLY recommend getting married there!
Cannot say enough positive about The Lakehouse and my experience with Victoria and all of the staff! My wife and I had our reception for our wedding in July and it was perfect!
The planning with Victoria, tasting with the chef for meal options and reviewing all of the details was effortless. Myself and my wife have been engaged since 2020 and finally we were able to have our dream wedding at The Lakehouse. I can't say enough positive about how the staff supported us and made our wedding such a special day.
In terms of the actual wedding day we had been warned by other that "It will go by too fast" "you won't have enough time to do everything". Our experience at The Lakehouse was the exact opposite! We did have a five hour reception and although it flew by we never felt rushed. Our bridal attendant was BEYOND amazing! She made sure my wife was ready, organized and kept all of the bridal party, parents and myself happy. Any request was carried out immediately and she was attentive to every detail.
The food? AMAZING, we went with both a chicken and a steak option and to this day it still stands at the best steak of my life! The guests couldn't stop telling us that the food was incredible and some of the best food they had ever had at a wedding!
Victoria led the charge and kept amazing communication with our vendors and of course us! We never felt rushed throughout the evening and had a clear plan for what was next.
If there is any doubt in your mind about going here for a wedding, event or party, take a look at the property!! Our guests are still commenting how amazing the view was, right on the water and amazing gardens!
Thank you to all of the staff that supported us and made our day amazing!
Had our ceremony and reception at Lakeside Villa Summer of 2022. We loved the venue! Our guests were very happy with the food, drinks, and setting. We had a beautiful sunset over the lake that could be seen through the big windows during the reception. The lake, dock, and greenery was perfect for photos. We are thankful we chose a package that included a list of vendors to choose between. It made the process less overwhelming only having to choose between a couple vendors and knowing they are at least partially paid for already through the venue package payment.
Amanda, our event planner, was so friendly and supportive during the planning process and at the wedding. She gave us lots of honest advice when planning and was able to accommodate and be flexible with last minute requests. She seemed comfortable and supportive working with a same gender couple and planning an interfaith ceremony. She genuinely seemed happy for us and we couldn't have done it with out her. Tricia, the day of coordinator, got things done timely and efficiently, though her strict nature did cause some anxiety on the wedding day. Overall we are very happy that we chose Lakeside Villa for our ceremony and reception and would highly recommend it to others.
When envisioning our wedding my husband and I wanted a small wedding in an outdoor ceremony space on the water, Lakeside Villa was what we wanted and more! Working with Amanda made planning a wedding in 5 months straight forward, easy, and overall stress free. Our ceremony was held in the garden, the lush grass, water views, and gorgeous perennial flowers being such natural beauty to the table no enhancements are necessary to make the space feel special and being dog-friendly we were able to incorporate our dog into the wedding party. Our reception was held in the lakeside ballroom which provided gorgeous panoramic views of the water and lots of natural lighting set the feel for a relaxed fun-filled celebration. For the foodies: its been 6 months since our wedding and guests are still raving to us (and their friends) about how amazing the food was.
Lakeside Villa is an amazing wedding venue! I cannot say enough good things about them. The location and setting is so gorgeous, right on the water, and the function rooms are just as beautiful! We got so many compliments from guests about how lovely it was! There is a bridal suite and a separate groom suite which was such a nice experience for the groom to have his own getting ready space. The staff is fantastic! Amanda and the rest of the Lakeside Villa staff was so fun to work with, they really helped the day come together flawlessly.
Lakeside Villa also has awesome package pricing which was a big win for us. No hidden costs, everything was very clear regarding what a was and was not included in each package price. Book them ASAP! You won't regret it.
Lakeside Villa was everything I dreamed of for our wedding day. From the very beginning when we booked Amanda she was so wonderful and always answered any questions I had promptly. She would check in a long the way to make sure planning was on track. She made wedding planning very easy for me as they have package deals with great vendor options. The day of the wedding Tricia killed it. She was on top of everything making sure it ran smoothly. The food all came out great! I highly recommend the Prime Rib! The room was beautiful and the view is to die for. Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives and I can not thank Lakeside Villa enough for helping our big day be so perfect.
I fell in love with Lakeside Villa once I saw the views of the water and their beautiful landscape. I knew we had to have our wedding there! Planning our wedding was so easy with them — they help you with the vendors and keep in contact with them to make sure everyone is on the same page. The staff are great and so helpful. Food was awesome too! Our guests continue to rave about how perfect the day was and I couldn’t agree more!
Lakeside Villa was PERFECT for our wedding on 11/27/21. We had an indoor ceremony and reception with pictures outside in front of the beautiful lake. Amanda and Trisha were both wonderful and helped the entire planning process and day of run more smoothly than I could have imagined. Every detail was taken care of. They were pleasant to work with, organized, and fun! I highly recommend this venue.
I can't say enough about how wonderful the lakeside Villa was to have my wedding reception at. Everything was included in the package, Amanda made setting everything up simple and easy, and the reception was absolutely gorgeous. The location in general is also beautiful. If you're going to use this location I 100% recommend having an evening reception so that the sun sets over the water it is absolutely magical. I will always recommend the lakeside Villa for any sort of function but especially for weddings or wedding receptions.
BEST VENUE EVER!!!!
What better way to get married than to do it lakeside!!
Amanda, Trisha and her team made our wedding day so special and they made it look so easy! Amanda worked with us for an entire year (!) and didn’t skip a beat. She is easy to work with and a great source of information and support throughout our entire planning process and day of celebration. And Trisha the wedding coordinator didn’t stop until we had everything PERFECT for our reception and ceremony. They both killed it! Not to mention this newly renovated venue is stunning! The lakeside is beautiful, bright and extremely photogenic. Every one of our guests gave us compliments on our choice of venue. They loved the location, the grounds, the gazebo, the trees and flowers! Also, they have 2 Giant rooms that fit more people than you know and they only do one event a day. If you are looking for a wedding venue or any kind of event, I suggest this place. Thank you Lakeside Villa for making wedding celebration that much more special!
Lakeside Villa is absolutely beautiful inside and out. Our guests are still raving about the food. Amanda was absolutely fantastic to help us with planning from the beginning even when we had to reschedule twice due to the pandemic. Trisha and the rest of the staff were amazing on our special day keeping everything moving smoothly throughout the entire night. We honestly can not say enough great things about this venue.
This venue exceeded our expectations! The staff is absolutely amazing! My husband and I just planned and held a wedding at this venue and during this entire pandemic, there was never a moment that Amanda and her staff were not there for us! Amanda held our hand throughout this entire planning process and made sure everything went perfectly. I can’t thank them enough for all they have done. The venue itself is gorgeous and everything a bride could imagine and want for her special day! There is no other venue I would even think of suggesting. This venue is the complete package and that is including the staff and delicious food.
We had our wedding at Lakeside Villa this month and it was absolutely perfect! Amanda and the staff they are just so amazing!! They made us feel so comfortable and helped make our wedding amazing!! Amanda was just amazing seriously I don’t know if I would have survived planning a wedding in a middle of a pandemic without her she was there every step of the way! The place is absolutely so beautiful our guests loved it so much! Our journey with them is definitely not over! We recommend Lakeside Villa 100 percent you won’t regret it!❤️🤗

Thank you Ann Christina!
I am truly looking forward to hosting your reception next year when all of your family and friends can attend. We will continue this journey together;-)

My daughter and her new husband booked the Lakeside Villa 2 yrs ago. Their wedding date 7/18/2020. When Covid 19 hit we didn't know what would happen. Working with Amanda of Lakeside Villa, made it so easy, even the stress was easy! She didn't push us, didn't demand money, allowed me as mother of the bride and matron of honor to email her as much as I wanted (a lot) without batting and eye! As the phases in Massachusetts rolled out. She allowed us to roll with them. She had an idea for each phase. When the day came she gave my daughter a wedding that was beautiful, elegant, food was delicious, all the little things Colleen wanted were there including the ice cream bar! Amanda had to bring additional staff to work under the government guidelines and made all of the day seem like there was no such thing as covid 19-except for face coverings you would never know! All of the vendors she recommended were exceptional as well! Music on Wheels Pete & Tammy Rivet were exceptional! again willing to work with us no matter what covid brought! Hilary Wood Photography amazing as well! Right down to the Limo by Pro Limo- Amanda Latini you are a special person . Your clients come first and that's what makes your Venue sooo amazing and special. Thank you from myself and Colleen and Rich. I highly recommend Lakeside Villa for a Wedding Venue or any event! - Brenda G

Our wedding was an experience of a lifetime. Leading up to it, Amanda was great. She was always able to answer any questions I had and helped me plan every detail. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. Our ceremony was beautiful right in front of the dock, the grounds provided a gorgeous backdrop for pictures, the reception area was beautiful and the food was delicious. I highly recommend!
We had our wedding here this past September and it was stunning! Amanda and the team were amazing to work with through all the months of planning and preparation.
They were able to accommodate my dietary restrictions as well as those of my guests (allergies & a few vegetarians). The food was delicious!
The day of was perfect and I didn't have to worry about a single thing. All the vendors recommended by the venue were perfect and everything was delivered on time. The staff for the event were extremely friendly and ensured that my husband actually ate our food while it was still hot! A rarity for weddings!
Our ceremony was right before sunset and the whole venue was beautiful. We cannot say enough good things about this venue, they made our day unforgettable <3
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 reception! 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!

Thank you, Kelly, for taking the time to write us a review! Those response cards were definitely frustrating, but I'm glad we finally got them right! I loved your decor and the light pink looked so beautiful!
I wish you and Alex the best!
We had our wedding at the Lakeside Villa (formerly known as the Monponsett Inn) on May 11, 2019. From the moment we decided to use LV/MI as our venue, we knew we had made the right choice. I don't even know where to begin with how happy we both were with our special day, the staff were incredible and worked tirelessly to make sure our day went off without a hitch! Amanda, the Wedding Coordinator, made us feel at ease upon meeting her; being very personable, having a great sense of humor and always making herself available to answer the silliest of questions right up to the eleventh hour. The location on the Monponsett Lake made not only for a spectacular view but a gorgeous photo backdrop as well. The food was delicious and they were able to accommodate our guests with dietary restrictions without issue. We can not say enough wonderful things about Lakeside Villa! A very big thank you to everyone at LV/MI who helped to make our day perfect! <3

Monponsett Inn was the perfect location for our wedding! The staff there, including Amanda, were so professional and walked us through all of the details of our wedding. They did everything from helping us find our vendors, checking in about our plans, and walking us through the details of the ceremony and reception beforehand so that we could relax and enjoy our wedding! The location was beautiful, and our guests loved the waterfront views for the ceremony and cocktail hour! The food was delicious, and the chef was very accommodating for the dietary needs of several of our guests! I cannot say enough good things about Monponsett Inn and the staff! We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great location for a reception or function!

Thank you, Stephanie, for taking the time to write this review. We appreciate it! We enjoyed hosting your wedding!
We wish you and Jeremy the best!
Your photos are beautiful BTW!
My husband and I chose Monponsett as our wedding venue for our August 18th 2018 wedding and we couldn't have been happier with our day. The weather wasn't on our side for our 4:30 ceremony, but Amanda and her staff did an amazing job making sure everything looked beautiful indoors. Our guests all had an amazing time and we just can't thank you all enough for your time, energy and all your hard work. Thank you so much for helping to make our day so memorable and special.
I just want to thank u and your amazing team. Our wedding was beautiful.. All the staff was amazing but i do have to let you know that a lot of my guest was and is still talking about one of your wait staff Crystal.. They all said she was polite, funny, helpful and just super friendly. She danced with our guest and was loved by all.. Tricia was amazing to me and my girls. She promised everything would work out as id like it to and she was on top of everything. She was a great help. The other staff was amazing to.. The guest and ourselves loved the food. It was so delicious.. We are very happy with everything..
Just wanted to say, everything was great! Thank you guys soooo much!!
Thank you so much for everything!
We had an amazing time -
Victoria was fabulous, so so helpful...
Food was fantastic, service was excellent...
Everything was perfect!
Thank you so much for everything. Our wedding was amazing, everyone had so much fun and we couldn’t have done any of it without you!
My husband and I are delighted to write a review for the Monponsett Inn. The staff at the Monponsett Inn were absolutely amazing, catering to our every need and fixing some of the smaller problems that always arise, so there was not the slightest worry. Amanda and Victoria were beyond helpful during the entire planning process with punctual emails responding to my every question and I had many! The woman who helped us the night of was hilarious, helpful, and wonderful, making one of the most important nights in our lives the most memorable. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful and it made for breathtaking pictures in the gazebo, on the boat dock, by the water fountain, and in the beautiful gardens. The guests raved about the food, especially about the steak tip appetizer. My only suggestion would be to pass out the cake to each table instead of having it on a table in the back. Many people did not realize the cake was there. Again, we cannot thank the Monponsett Inn enough and would HIGHLY recommend them to everyone.
We got married in October 2018. Monponsett Inn was the easiest decision, as our package we chose provided so much ( linens, florist, invites, limo service, cake, cocktail napkins, outside ceremony service, . etc) and all at a very afforadable price. Amanda and Victoria are super easy to communicate with and were so helpful !! I emailed them what felt like constantly about every little question I had up until the wedding. I’ve been telling all my engaged friends to choose Monponsett for their venue ! The grounds outside where we got married is breathtaking. The best choice we made !
We got married at Monponsett Inn was on July 20th, 2018 and words can’t express how breathtaking Monponsett Inn made our whole wedding. Our ceremony was outdoors because they have a wonderful scenery of a pond and dock area. Our indoor reception was just as charming too, which was just right for us. We had a blast and so did our guest! The food was superb, and they are very accommodating to food allergies or restrictions and our guest. All of our guests continue to share their positive compliments on how delicious their food was and experience at our wedding.
Amanda and Victoria were supportive, flexible, responsive, prompt, professional, and so amazing to work with. They helped us every step of our planning process and when there was a concern they were prompt in solution. They were a joy to work with and will work to make your wedding day go smoothly.
If you are looking for a lovely location that is affordable with great quality, we highly recommend Monponsett Inn! They made our wedding day a dream! We are looking forward to celebrating our one-year anniversary at Monponsett Inn because know it will be just as wonderful as our wedding.

Our wedding was on September 29th and we are very happy with our wedding experience at this venue. The grounds and reception were so beautiful. We received many compliments from our guests and the food was delicious and plentiful. The staff was friendly and attentive. We are very happy we chose the Monponsett to host our special day!
My husband and I had our ceremony and reception at the Monponsett Inn on Saturday and it was all we could have dreamed of! Trish was AMAZING making sure everything went smooth. Could not have gone off as well without her! The food was amazing as well as the bar staff and waitor. Thank you with all our hearts for making our day so special!
Amanda and George are amazing. They are down to earth people who know their worth and make it more affordable. Without their talent hard work and hard workers our day wouldn’t have been as perfect as it was. Thanks again to the Monponsett
From the moment I started emailing Amanda I knew I was going to connect with her. She always got back to me in a timely manner and believe me with a year and a half of planning I had ALOT of questions. She always knew the right thing to say and where to send me when I needed outside advice. The fact that Amanda and I connected on a more personal level made it even better, she would check on me periodically and knew when I was having a rough time. She really made me feel special. The vendors were easy to work with and knew the ins and outs of everything I needed/wanted. This was a big relief. The chef met with us and took into consideration the picky eaters we were and the guests with even more pickiness then us. The day of our wedding couldn’t have went smoother. We had a coordinator named Trisha and she was out of this world. She was spunky and knew just what to say to our crazy wedding party, and especially with having our four children in the wedding Trisha was the assertiveness we needed and got! Up until the last second I was at the venue that night amanda and Trisha were there for us and I couldn’t have been happier. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for our amazingly flawless day!
All our love,
Mr. & Mrs. Levine

Amanda and the team at the Monponsett Inn are phenomenal - we could not have had a better experience! We chose the Monponsett Inn for our August 19, 2017 wedding reception venue and since day one, Amanda ensured that every question, every detail, and every aspect of the reception was answered and taken care of. We really can't say enough about Amanda - she's so responsive and helpful and made sure that the reception planning process during our engagement was so smooth.
On the day of the wedding when we arrived at the venue, we couldn't have been happier - the sunset was gorgeous and the perfect backdrop for our photos, the room was decorated and set up perfectly, and we were greeted right away by Patricia, our onsite reception coordinator from the Monponsett staff - she was the BEST. We loved our experience and we're so glad that we chose the Monponsett Inn for our big day!

This was the perfect wedding venue! We had our ceremony outside in the gazebo and our reception here! We used the complete wedding package and it made wedding planning so simple and stress free. Their wedding package includes so much! It includes the food, cake, invitations, napkins, limo ride, flowers and so much more! Everyone we worked with at the venue was so helpful from the day we booked until the wedding day. I cannot recommend them enough!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this review! We all enjoyed working with Jenna and Chris. Their love is truly something special.
I simply cannot say enough about Monponsett Inn! The staff are amazing and all of vendors are incredible! Everything from the owner having coffee with us when we first looked at the venue to after the wedding when our event planner Amanda gave us hug as a thank you for working with us! The venue, the views, and the prices can't be beat! Monponsett Inn is simply the best, no contest!

Thank you so much for writing this review! Your wedding day had so many heartfelt moments. The first time I saw you, I had to catch my breath you were so beautiful. When your dad had his first look, I had to hold back tears. When your groom ...
couldn't hold it together when he saw you for the very first time I had to hold back tears yet again. Your wedding day will stay close to my heart because the love you have for each other is so pure. You can see it when you look at each other. I am so thankful that I had the privilege of helping you plan your wedding. I wish you both the best.
Love this venue! They went beyond expectations when everything finally came together. I wanted to hit the reset button over and over again. They are there step by step, and everything was stress free. Not to mention how beautiful the landscape is and how gorgeous the room came out for the reception. Definitely found a place we will never forget and will go to for our wedding anniversary every year.

our love is something special. I can't wait to see you at your one year anniversary and hopefully sooner.
My wife and I were recently married at the Monponsett Inn. The location on the lake is simply gorgeous. The reception rooms were neat and clean. We were in a room that overlooked the lake. It was so pretty with the sun setting behind us. Amanda was so very helpful every step of the way. She worked with us to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams. She provided us with a checklist so that we knew what we needed and when we needed it by. It took a lot of the stress out of the whole process. Trisha was wonderful as the event planner during our wedding. She made sure we were where we were supposed to be, when we were supposed to be there. I would highly recommend having your wedding at the Monponsett Inn!

Poor customer service right from the beginning when attempting to hold a date. Was told they would "hold" a date and then had another couple interested and told them they would "hold" it for them as well. Gave them weeks to decide and when they finally did, they were given the date over me. The military and weather are big deciding factors for this venue on who gets first pick on a date, regardless if you inquired first. Can't imagine how the rest of the process would go if this was an issue from the start. No thanks! Beware!
This venue was perfect from the day we went and looked at it two years ago. Amanda the wedding coordinator is fantastic. The packages are awesome they make everything so easy for you. Between the limo and the flowers and the food choices its all in one place and you don't have to panic about finding a million different vendors. We chose our own DJ so we were able to get a credit towards our price which was fantastic. You can email the venue and less then a couple hours later you have an answer from Amanda. The setting outside for the ceremony is GORGEOUS! The lake and new fountain make the perfect back drop for your photos. The food was fantastic and everything flowed perfectly! I would give this venue 10 stars. The prices are so affordable for people on a budget and you get a fantastic wedding experience! LOVE LOVE LOVE! Thank you Monponsett for making this a day to remember!
After going the a bunch of other venues and leaving with sticker shock...a friend told us to go take a look at Monponsett Inn since they had their reception there. It is a little bit of a drive to get there...but it's worth it! Amanda was great from day one. She answered all of my questions super quick and took care of everything. Their wedding packages include pretty much everything you need with options to upgrade. The day of the wedding everything went smooth. I didn't have to think about anything. They let me know where to be and what needed to be done and at what time so I wasn't worried about it and could hang out with my guests longer. My only regret is not having a longer reception! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to have a fun wedding at a beautiful location without breaking the bank.
Where to begin.....Both my self and the groom could not be happier with the decision we made of getting married at the Monponsett Inn. In comparison to other wedding venues the Monponsett Inn passes other venues in all categories in our opinion! The venue is beautiful inside and out. The lake front views are gorgeous as well as the the ball room for the reception. The staff was very helpful and polite, the food was like no other, guests were raving about the quality and taste of both the appetizers as well as the meal. Also the bartenders worked with me prior to the wedding to help mix up a signature drink to help tie in my fall themed wedding. But MOST IMPORTANT person at the Monponsett Inn that you will work with what feels like side by side is the GM Amanda. SHE WAS AMAZING TO WORK WITH!! She made me feel as though I was the only bride that she was working with. Any thing that I requested she some how made it happen. If it wasn't something they normally do it wasn't a no or we don't do that it was always, let me figure it out and get back to you on how we CAN get it done and she did! Whenever Amanda said she would do something, she did it no matter how big or small. I knew I could count on Amanda. Even to the point that I didn't want to email her on a holiday because I knew she would get back to me that same day...and she did! It seems as though not much upsets Amanda or gets her sweating and that is someone you need to have by your side during this very stressful process! Amanda was defiantly the MVP of my wedding planning process! Amanda is worth her weight in GOLD!
