When my husband and I were engaged, we looked at loads of venues; but Iola Lakeside Events just simply couldn't be beat for their price, and all that it included (chair and table set up/tear down, access to their backdrops and decorations, a day-of coordinator, beautiful lighting already set up, and loads more). We ended up using their decorations, altar options, and between those and chair/table set up/tear down, it saved us so much stress and money. For the wedding day they did NOT disappoint; they were incredibly kind, professional, informative, and helpful the whole way. For the wedding itself, our day-of coordinator (Chelsea, we miss you!) was very calm as she managed so many behind-the-scenes details. I had to throw some schedule changes at her and she handled them so kindly and helped make them happen. And the venue itself is absolutely beautiful; the outdoor greenery is so pretty for any season, and the indoor barn is an elegant beauty. The included lights are absolutely stunning and perfect for any time of day. I cannot recommend them enough!

Truly a beautiful and memorable experience. My husband and I loved working with every member from this venue who created such a beautiful day for us. Every detail was attended to and each person from within the package took their role personal and made us feel like we were a part of the family. The entire process from consultation to day of was handled very seriously and as a detail orientated person I couldn’t have asked for a better coordinator. I highly recommend choosing this venue!

Everything about my wedding was perfect. Cristi Johnson really blew me away with the whole day. The location is breathtaking and I couldn’t have dreamed of a more beautiful wedding space.

Working with Sara and Cristi was definitely one of the highlights of our wedding! They are such great people to work with! Not to mention that the venue is gorgeous! They will really go above and beyond to make sure the day is beyond perfect. Couldn't recommend this venue enough!

Iola lakeside exceeded our expectations in every possible way. We couldn’t be happier with how our day turned out. Cristi & Sara were on top of it all from day one. They made sure we had a perfect wedding. The location is breath taking. Our guest loved it! Highly recommend with sticking with the vendors they supply in their package they are all amazing! Pick Iola lakeside for your big day!

Very happy with our choice in deciding to hire Iola Lakeside Events as our venue. They are very friendly and accommodating! Have had ample opportunities to tour and show family members the venue to get ideas for our big day! Beautiful location as well!

Our wedding at Iola Lakeside was even more perfect than we could of imagined. Sara was always quick to reply and offered wonderful different options for packages and pricing that fit for our head count and budget. Sara and her family were so attentive on our big day with every wish and detail we had. From helping with set up to wiping down chairs numerous times when we had a little sprinkle before walking down the aisle, we felt so comfortable knowing our guests were in such great hands. We could not of asked for a better wedding day and we would highly recommend this venue for any wedding, party or event you are planning; you will not be disappointed!

Sara and her family were awesome. The venue is beautiful. They opened their homes up to us so that it would be easier for the bride and groom to get ready. Words can not express how much we appreciated Sara and her family!!!

Sarah, Angela and Cristie were beyond amazing... Im sorry I didnt catch the names of the men on staff, they were all amazing also. There was a torrential down pour minutes before the wedding and the team seamlessly and flawlessly moved the ceremony inside (before it rained). Everyone's attention to detail was superb! You could really see and feel the love and warmth coming from the heart's of EACH staff member. I would DEFINITELY recommend this venue!! Thank you guys for an unforgettable wedding ❤❤❤

Andrew and I got married on 6th October and the entire process was easy from first view of the property until the day of!
This was the 3rd venue we looked at and this was by far the best service and price!
Sara was extremely friendly and welcoming and helped us with decor and organising the day!
The day-of coordinator also did a good job making sure the entire event ran smoothly.
They set up the entire ceremony and reception seating arrangements, and even provided additional decor for us such as swings and a bon fire. We highly recommend Iola Lakeside Events!
