The Lodge at Katherine Legge Memorial Park

er we could've done our ceremony upstairs in the ballroom. We had enough space for 85 people and everyone loved the place. If you're looking for a quiet, woodsy wedding spot this is your place!

huge park. It’s a perfect spot for pictures. There is a pergola right outside the Lodge and it’s perfect for an outdoor wedding. Unfortunately We couldn’t get married there Because the grass was so wet. But KLM, Uncle Bubs(caterer) and Joie (tent rental) Made it work with an outdoor ceremony on the patio -there also is an upstairs space that’s also a great space for larger events or as a back up and it’s so pretty! We had a tent with string lights on the patio and it looked so beautiful. Dinner was held inside the lodge and then cocktail hour and reception was mostly outside. We had 95 people and we fit perfectly in the dining room. The staff is so helpful and friendly. They were super accommodating. And also great price for the space and all of its amenities. They give you a list of preferred vendors and we chose Uncle Bubs (who are also amazing!) and they all made it so easy for us. It was so reassuring to know they work together often and everything was so smooth. It was a perfect night !

friendly and helpful and made us feel so reassured in the wedding planning process. Our reception was beautiful and we got some amazing pictures on the grounds and inside the Lodge itself! We’d definitely book the Lodge again for a future event!

room but everything worked perfectly! We had 90 adults in the dining room and about 25 kids in the living room with our cake, Photo Booth and guest books. Upstairs was a beautiful ballroom for dancing. Took pictures by the Zook House. We went with a brunch wedding on a Sunday morning and the Lodge was cheaper plus the park was quieter. Bride's room upstairs for all the ladies to get ready in. So happy with our venue choice!

ul with the planning and helped answer any question we had and since we worked with a caterer off their list, they were also very knowledgeable and well-acquainted with the space. They let us stop by and do a couple different walk-throughs and helped by offering some suggestions. The day of, they had everything set-up that they said they would so our caterer could come in and do the finishing touches. Everything worked out perfectly and we were very pleased with our choice of wedding venue!

m of this gorgeous venue! We were extremely pleased with the look and overall feel of this location for our wedding. The reason I gave 4 stars is because the venue staff was not the greatest with communicating and answering some of the questions I sent via email, which made it difficult to plan some aspects of our wedding. I also felt it was a tad pricey seeing as our ceremony and reception were all held inside, where it is quite small. We had under 90 people and it still felt a bit crowded. Overall, the staff was professional and did a wonderful job to ensure our night was perfect.

r, only stairs to the second floor. If you plan to use outside space, keep in mind that they only have one vendor that they work with for chairs and tenting for outside.

gey, not a typical banquet hall or country club. The event coordinators were very easy to work with. The only thing I didn't like was that you get 8 hours for your event, which is fine, but this includes 2 hours for setting up and 1 hour for cleaning up. That means you only get 5 hours for your actual reception. I actually called up KLM to tack on an extra hour so that we could have more time for dinner and dancing, which wasn't a problem because the prices are so affordable. I had more trouble with the set-up situation, because you're only able to set up in the 2 hours immediately before your reception. I was physically getting married in those 2 hours! So I had to appoint a couple of friends to help set up for me between the ceremony and dinner. The whole day turned out wonderfully, I just wished I had been able to set up the night before or early that morning like some venues will let you. All in all I'd definitely recommend KLM for a small wedding--you can't beat the price and how lovely it is inside (and outside; the park has some amazing spots for wedding photos!). Don't let the fact that there are two levels throw you off; I thought it might be weird for people to traipse upstairs for dancing after dinner, but I don't think anyone cared.

from start to finish was amazing. I had non stop compliments all night long about how great this place was. I had both the ceremony and reception at the location and the lodge had the perfect rustic feel that I was going for. I barely needed decorations because the the place has so much history and wood beams and fireplaces and wood floors that you dont have to look for ways to decorate it. I still brought in a few things, but I didn't even have to have a florist, that's how beautiful this place already is. I also got married in November and my photographer had so many places to shoot outside and inside for us. thank you a million times over. it was the PERFECT place for a small, intimate, rustic wedding. exactly what we wanted!!

ad our reception both in the lodge and under a tent in the back of the lodge. I was a little leary of how the split seating would work logistically, but I loved how it turned out! They just finished new landscaping in the back, and everything looked wonderful. Their preferred vendor list led us to Uncle Bub’s Catering, and the staff at the Lodge worked together perfectly with the rental company and with Uncle Bub’s to coordinate the wedding day. It made it so much easier on me knowing that they had already worked together so many times! They knew how and where to set things up, and I trusted their knowledge. Bob worked the day of our wedding, and he did a fantastic job making sure everything went smoothly. If there were any problems that came up, I was (and still am!) completely oblivious to them!

esome as the venue; however, after everything was said and done (AKA paid for & party was over) they were unresponsive and somewhat nonchalant about my concerns. My biggest pet peeve is the lack of follow-up/follow through. The customer experience doesn’t end after you have purchased something, it continues on so that you may get repeat business as well as positive word of mouth (FREE) marketing. I called Jennifer the Monday (March 16th) after my party and I expressed how happy I was with the event, but voiced one concern. I was promised a call back for that Friday (March 20th), but after 2 weeks of waiting I never heard back so I called her again and left a message....It's been over 4 weeks and I never received a response regarding my concern. I simply asked for a partial refund for 30mins as the staff wasn’t able to get the PA system to work at the end of my event and after 25-30mins my guest began to leave. Even if they didn’t agree to grant me a partial refund, it would have been nice to hear back from someone since I was promised a call. Overall, this was a lovely place, but based on the last encounter I wouldn’t recommend nor have another event here as the lack of follow up showed me how much they valued me as a customer.

eption and dinner on the first floor. Katherine Legge Lodge is located on beautiful grounds, and the joy of a wedding and reception can be contained within its elegant, rustic setting. There's no car ride to a separate venue to break the joy of the couple's vows. I highly recommend this Lodge and its staff of wonderful employees, who worked so hard to make sure our daughter's wedding day was magic!

in the direction of everything I wanted and needed....and never said NO! We went a non traditional route with dinner and she was incredibly helpful in making sure everything went off without a hitch! I'd do it all again and I'd do it at KLML for sure!

staff are willing with work with you and create your vision, the park that surrounds the lodge is beautiful, and the unique look makes a wedding special. Plus, at such reasonable rates, we were free to do all kinds of fun things! Only downsides: it can be very difficult to get ahold of the staff on the phone, there was a $500 security deposit that was not well explained (it is in addition to the fee, and then returned later), and the space is smaller (best for 75-120). You also pay per hour so set-up must be right before the event. But if you can make it work, it's worth it!
