Lake Iamonia is a beautiful location. It is very private, the location being 1 mile off the road from a gated entrance. It is all trees and greenery and perfect for a rustic country theme. The thing I liked most about the location was that you could have the entire grounds for the whole day. You could even rent the annex for a fee so you can get ready on-site which was very helpful. The lodge is bare but I liked that because it gave us lots of room to decorate.
My complaints were that they dug up a hole right in the middle of our aisle the day or two before and didn't tell us. We didn't really see a way around it and still kept the set up, just hoping it doesn't look bad in our photos. They also are very strict and were quick to get us out when cleaning, which ended a really great night a little poorly. However, I would still recommend because of the value compared to other locations in Tallahassee.

We were absolutely thrilled with Lake Iamonia Lodge on EVERY aspect. The venue was gorgeous and exactly what we were looking for. Our theme (sort of speak) was a rustic atmosphere and that is what we got. We went very light on the decorations so the venue could speak for itself. We opted to rent the annex so that the girls and myself the bride could get ready at the venue and be rushed. This turned out to be a GREAT idea. Linda Runkle is absolutely wonderful and was so helpful with everything. I would recommend this venue 100%.

The Lodge was a perfect setting for my wedding and reception, it is also very affordable!
