Machella F. Sent on 04/16/2021Dream venue come true
LMEC was our first and only venue we looked at. Our decision was so easy after seeing the venue in person and speaking with the staff. It is a gorgeous venue with lots to offer all in one place. We had our ceremony in the rotunda and our reception in the banquet hall. They have bride and groom suits to get dressed in, lots of beautiful scenery for pictures and much more to offer. Honestly just overall a beautiful venue. -

The Lake Mary Events Center is truly a gem in the central Florida area. It was one of the very few venues in the area that had both a beautiful indoor and outdoor options for the ceremony, with separate cocktail hour and reception areas, a must have in Florida! We had our ceremony outdoors and it was stunning. Our jaws dropped the first we saw the Rotunda! Carmen was super helpful throughout the entire planning process and was very responsive and professional. The facility is absolutely beautiful and we had no complaints with the venue. We were able to use the meeting room to get ready in the morning and combined with the Groom's and Bride's suites, we had more than enough space for our 15 person bridal party, parents, etc to get ready. The price is also super reasonable compared to other venues with beautiful chair options and tables included. I honestly cannot fathom any other venue for our wedding day as LMEC was perfect for us! -

You will not regret this venue. They are more affordable than whatever else you are thinking of in Central Florida if you want your ceremony and/or reception in front of a lake and to have a beautiful Florida charm that you and your guests will dig. Lake Mary Event Center does not feel like either an old, historic nor upscale, highly modern venue. It is somewhere beautifully in between. Your guests can enjoy the beautiful lake, courtyard, and rotunda, while also feeling like getting lit and crazy on the dance floor later on in the same night in the ballroom. The staff are super professional in the whole process and their website and contract make a lot of things self-explanatory rather than stressful and confusing. -

My dream venue
I LOVE this venue. The staff I communicated with was amazing and my day of coordinator was able to take over smoothly in the days leading up to the wedding. The entire venue is gorgeous. I wanted something in a ballroom, but most places were SO expensive. LMEC was reasonably priced. You have to book very far in advance since it's such a popular venue, but it was so worth it. I would have my wedding here 100 times over. -

This venue was super accommodating in us changing the date, and absolutely gorgeous for a ceremony. It’s quiet and private, the rotunda and outside areas are beautiful, and I couldn't have been happier with a venue. The cost was a huge bonus, it’s very affordable and I’d recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful and affordable location. -

Alyssa is the best when it comes to communication and being so helpful with last minute changes. I can’t thank her enough for responding to my emails to quickly and answering all of my questions. The venue is beautiful and worth the cost at having everything you need in one location. -

Perfect lakeside venue!
We just had our wedding at Lake Mary Events Center over the weekend. This venue was exactly what we were looking for and more! The rotunda where we chose to have our ceremony is absolutely breathtaking with it's floor to ceiling windows, natural light, and view of the lake. Our cocktail hour was outside on the lawn and patio where there are two beautiful trellises and a fountain, overlooking the picturesque lake. Our reception was inside the ballroom. It was spacious and also features large windows that look out on the patio and lake. Our guests all commented on what a beautiful venue we had. We chose to the book the venue for the entire day so that the bridesmaids and I could have our hair and make-up done on-site. We were able to use the meeting room to get ready, but they also have a smaller bridal suite where we took pictures and a groom's room where the groomsmen changed. The team at Lake Mary Events Center, including Alyssa, was great to work with throughout the planning process and on the day of our wedding. Highly recommend considering Lake Mary Events Center for your wedding! -

The minute I first walked through the Rotunda I knew this would be our wedding venue! The place is clean, well maintained and beautiful, the staff is professional and friendly, and the price is super affordable and an excellent value for everything you get on top of that!
The staff were super understanding and patient with all the different walkthroughs I ended up having to schedule during all my planning, and were always prompt in replying to all communications for questions or concerns I had. I was even allowed to use our “rehearsal time” to bring our dogs around to the ceremony lawn so they could become familiar with it the day before the ceremony, since our two Huskies were our Ring Bearers.
10/10 would recommend, and use again! -

Naomi W. Sent on 09/16/2021The BEST Venue in Orlando!!! My dream was realized!
You wouldn’t believe the price of this stunning venue if I showed you the receipt myself. This venue is too beautiful and the staff is too fantastic for such a reasonable price lol! In all seriousness, my husband and I had looked at many venues and had even considered spending more than 4K on a venue before touring the Lake Mary Event Center. Everything was impeccably clean and nothing was in tatters. One of my Guests is an absolute clean freak and they made sure to mention how even the vents on the ceiling were super clean which they had apparently never seen at a venue before. The floor to ceiling windows in the rotunda are truly what dreams are made of, it’s was so romantic and the view of the lake is simply enchanting! Alyssa and Gunnar were fantastic and me emails were answered within 24 hours or less usually. The upgraded chiavari chairs were stunning and 100% worth the cost. Included in the cost of the venue price come tons of tables which is unheard of from a lot of venues. The bride and groom suites had a bathroom inside of them and were plenty spacious. The only thing I should mention is that if you want music outside for the cocktail hour you can really only have an acoustic violin, harpist, (maybe a guitar). The event center is very respectful of the neighbors and for that reason you can’t have music from a speaker at all (even a small speaker), you also can’t have a loud musician such as saxophonist. This was easily remedied by simply having my cocktail hour inside the hall area which is still very spacious and I didn’t sweat my Guests or vendors out which was actually very much preferred. All in all this is truly the best venue in all of Orlando. It does not disappoint. Do yourself a favor and contact them for a tour ASAP! -

The venue was very beautiful. It was spacious for all the guests. Booking it was a breeze. The ladies there are awesome and very helpful if you have questions. A tour is available and a rehearsal is included. Their responses are prompt. If you can, rent the entire building. There is plenty of parking and it is easy to find from I-4 and the SR417. (We used Magic Occasions (food was excellent) which is one of the recommended caterers.) We had ceremony in Rotunda, Cocktail hour in Front hallway, and Reception in Grand ballroom. All indoors because it is Hot this time of year and luckily because it rained. I believe I dealt with Linzee but Alyssa gave us the tour. Hey, listen don't waste your time looking around for a place. This is it! Use the caterer and it'll be easy peasy. It has great photo ops. There's a bride dressing room (a little on the small side if you have more than 2 bridesmaids)and a groom dressing room. Restrooms are nice and clean. The staff was there minding the building really but they were pleasant. You do have to be out by the time of end rental so that you get your deposit back. We decorated ourselves and took it all away ourselves with the help of some friends who stayed to help and friends who came before the ceremony. Anyway, enough said ! Pick this venue and relax. -

From the moment you walk in your breath is taken away of how gorgeous this place is. We got married in the rotunda facing the lake and everything loved it. Our guests were taking pictures in front of the lake as their background. The staff super friendly and helpful! -

I cannot say enough great things about Lake Mary Events Center!! My experience was an absolute dream! The venue is beautiful inside and out! They maintain it so well! The inside is very clean and the outside is perfectly manicured as well! The staff is so responsive and professional and answered my questions quickly and politely. This venue is very affordable and allow you to bring in your own vendors and give recommendations, as needed. This venue is perfect for both indoor and outdoor weddings! They have a gorgeous rotunda with elegant drapes and floor to ceiling windows that wrap around the room in a half circle with gorgeous views of the lake and pergolas. If you choose to get married outside, the lawn is perfectly maintained and the sunset on the lake is really beautiful. I was a 2020 covid bride and had to reschedule my wedding ONE WEEK before my wedding, which absolutely broke my heart, but the kindness and compassion they delivered warmed my heart and they helped me postpone my wedding not just once, but Twice!! To say that our wedding day was worth the wait would be an understatement and we are so grateful to have had our wedding at Lake Mary Events Center. I will never forget our experience and would highly recommend this venue to any central Florida bride. -

LMEC is the place to get married!!!! I knew long before even being engaged that this was the venue I wanted to get married at after attending a wedding here. Little did I know how amazing the venue and staff, especially Cristin Rumler would be in the midst of planning a wedding during a global pandemic. My day was an absolute dream come true and the venue is absolutely breath taking - HIGHLY RECOMMEND! -

I found this venue on wedding wire and I am absolutely grateful I chose it! The Lake Mary Events Center staff was amazing and very helpful with everything! Not only is the venue stunning, but it's a great deal. We received several compliments from our guests, it was wonderful to get ready at the same place where the wedding was held, clean, comfortable, beautiful, and I could go on but I don't believe I have all the words. My day went by beautifully, despite it being a covid wedding. I highly recommend this venue. -

The Lake Mary Event Center was a beautiful venue! It was so romantic, and the way the light hit the Rotunda during the Golden Hour was my favorite part. Thank you Cristin at LMEC who was my point of contact. She was amazing and helpful throughout the whole process. -

Lake Mary Events Center was the perfect venue for my husband and I. All of the staff was very easy to work with, there was plenty of room for all of our guests, and to top it all off, we had the most beautiful weather and sunset over the water on the lake on our special day. The staff was very understanding when we had to change our date due to COVID, making a stressful situation a little more bearable! I’d consider the price to be reasonable for such a beautiful venue. I would highly recommend Lake Mary Events Center! -

Where do I even start!? First, Lake Mary Events Center, Cristin Rumler, and their entire staff are absolutely phenomenal. Absolute dream to work with. In the midst of a global pandemic, TWO postponements, and so many other changes they were kind, patient, understanding, and so incredibly helpful. They understood the importance of keeping people safe during this crazy time, but they also understood the importance of still having a special day.
Second, the place is stunning (obviously.) My husband and I wanted an outdoor waterfront ceremony, but we wanted a beautiful backup plan (because...ya know, Florida weather.) This place checks all the boxes. The lakefront views, the rotunda, the ballroom ... it's absolutely picture perfect. And, compared to a lot of other Florida venues it felt very affordable.
To sum it up, if you're comparing and contrasting a bunch of Florida venues: stop here. Book Lake Mary Events Center. You'll get stunning lake views and a team of the kindest professionals you'll ever meet. -

The location and building are so beautiful! We got married here in February 2020 and it was a seamless process! I was somewhat concerned about hours as we had to be out of the building by 11:00pm but it worked well and I was very appreciative of the help we got throughout the day. We got so many compliments on our venue and loved having ceremony and reception all together! Would 100% do it the exact same way!
