Fabulous and easy!

We are the “hands off” couple! That did not stop Mary Ellen and her crew from giving us the perfect day. They thought of everything so we didn’t have to! They helped recommend vendors and gave guidance where needed. I couldn’t recommend them more.

The PERFECT Wedding Venue

Our wedding at Deer Path Inn was absolutely perfect and went even better than we could have imagined! The team was incredibly attentive, helpful, and friendly and answered every question throughout the planning process and the day of. Michelle, Al, Felix, and the rest of the team were amazing from the start of the day all the way through the end, keeping the evening on track and ensuring we had everything we needed. We were beyond lucky to work with them and they made our wedding weekend perfect!

A timeless venue set in one of Lake countys most beautiful towns, Lake Forest. Deerpath Inn is a great venue to have either an intimate wedding out on their private terrace, or a large scale reception in the private ball room. The staff throughout the Inn is ready and willing to do what it takes for your day to be spectacular.
