Our August once in a blue moon wedding

We had found this venue on line. We went to see it and loved it from day one. The owner Patty and her husband are so sweet. Her cordnator Michelle is wonderful also. She has a tuff job making sure everything and everyone is on track. The venue is a country barn at the lake. Everything went great for our special day. It was so hot but still turned out wonderful. All of our guests talked about how beautiful the place was. Wished I had this venue on our property. Thanks to the Carvers for everything.

Truly beyond AWESOME

Wonderful. Not only was the venue beyond mt expectations but Patty helped pull all the loose in together, and just made the wedding so spectacular. It was as if every detail have been considered. I have already started praising this place to the people I know.

Loved Carver Lake Venue!

We are so honored that we could get married at Carver Lake Venue. We were a very DIY wedding, and the Carver Lake team was very supportive, and informative throughout the whole process. We appreciated how transparent they were with us, and allowed us to use our creativity as well. On the wedding day, they were so helpful! We had a rainy day for our wedding, and they were supportive and helpful to make sure our wedding was still beautiful!
