If you're thinking about having a wedding at trout lake I would rethink your venue. It was a terrible sign that every time I spoke to someone it was a new staff member and it seems like a revolving door there, they've had a new wedding planner... four times over since we booked last year. Not a good sign. Now one of the reasons we booked with them is because when we sat with the owner he said he took pride in the fact that unlike other venues they don't charge for every little thing, but that is in fact exactly what they do. When we got to the venue they had a staff member Who barely greeted us tell us that we could put our decorations in the bridal suite but that she was not responsible if someone took them, I totally understand that concept but that's not really how you greet the couple coming to get married there. Maybe say that after saying hello, welcome, congrats etc.When I first booked with them I was told that I would have a wedding coordinator, not only one but three, and the three that worked there that night did not do anything for me, my wedding planner did everything, one of the girls didn't even fix my dress before I walked it down the hall with my father and she was standing right there.Right before our rehearsal dinner we were informed that we could not bring our decorations in and set up until 230 when our wedding literally started at 4:30. We asked them how they expect us to do that and they just shrugged their shoulders and said they didn't know. When we asked if there was any possible way we could do it sooner they told us we would be charged hourly to come in earlier, and that is not some thing they talked about until that day, he felt trapped we had no other option. But to ask if we could come earlier and pay more money. They totally blindsided us. My three year old popped one confetti pop in our bridal suite and when they saw it they told my wedding planner that they're charging us extra for a cleanup. Thankfully my wedding planner did not tell me about any of this until after the night because she already knew how frustrated we were at them. At the end of the night they started packing in the tables and chairs before our guests even left, our wedding ended at 10 PM and they were folding up those chairs by 9:50, some of my guests photos even got thrown out on the tables by staff members. When we were leaving they informed us five minutes before 10 PM that we had and then take all of our decorations that night out of the venue. We were baffled, they did not mention that prior and we had just gotten married we were not expecting to drag all of our decorations out that minute. They were completely unaccommodating and handed me my cake in a box as we gathered all of our decor as fast as we could.They didn't congratulate us, they didn't save a plate for us, they didn't help us, they were cold rude and totally unprofessional. In my opinion this place is charging people at a venue level but they cannot properly perform at a venue level. Trout Lake is not a wedding venue I would ever recommend again after my experience.  
I didn't plan on saying anything but seeing as though they are already posting about their wedding tonight that they're having congratulating the couple that's there when they didn't even say a word to us, take one photo, or tag us in anything, it's a huge slap in the face.
Don't use trout lake as your venue if you want to be welcomed and feel congratulated as a newly married couple.
