A Perfect Wedding Experience

We had a wonderful experience organizing our wedding at Lakeview. We looked at several of the highest rated all inclusive venues in the Columbus area and ultimately decided on Lakeview for the versatile indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces with a beautiful reception area. Lakeview has a cozy, rustic, and elegant setting, and this is one of the more affordable places for an all inclusive venue. It was 20K cheaper than a similar venue we toured. Alexa helped us plan the event. She coordinated the decorations, florals, cake, catering, DJ, and bar. She was easy to reach, answered all of our questions quickly, and made sure everything ran as smooth as possible. There are different packages you can choose, and we added the photo booth where they hung up a sequin curtain backdrop and the photos of guests are stored online and shared after the wedding. We also added the cigar bar which our family and friends really enjoyed. Matt was our DJ and he did such a great job helping us prepare our playlist and organized the shoe game for us during the reception. We opted for an open bar, which our guests loved. The caterer, Gourmet Fresh, prepared an elegant and delicious meal including three appetizers, a salad, and an entrée preselected by our guests. We were allowed to sample and approve the food beforehand, and everything tasted great. Fiori Florals created the perfect combination of colors in the flowers. Our cake by Alice's Piece of Cake was beautiful and delicious. The only vendors we were responsible for coordinating included our photographer (Hailey Lauren Photography), officiant (John Stuber at Columbus Wedding Officiants), macaron baker (Anne Made Sweets), and group transportation (Cardinal Transportation Ltd). I gave Alexa the information of the added vendors and she made sure everything was tied together for the big day. Alexa and my officiant helped me organize the rehearsal the day before which made everything so much easier. After the ceremony, the staff helped us clean up and box everything. On the day of our wedding, I was very worried because I wanted to have the ceremony outside, and the weather was showing a lot of intermittent storms. Alexa watched the weather all day, and somehow she was able to prepare the ceremony outside between heavy showers. Despite the bad weather, everything turned out wonderful. One of the best things about this venue is that it has beautiful options inside and outside for the ceremony in case of rain. And it's so nice to have the reception at the same location as the ceremony. I really loved the spacious area for the girls dressing room downstairs. There is also a nice loft area for the guys to enjoy upstairs. We did not do a first look, so having separate areas for the guys and girls worked out perfect. There was a lot of space outside for parking and we had enough room to park our bus for group transportation to and from the venue for the evening. The staff here all are professional, kind, and courteous. I couldn't have had a easier wedding day, and I am so grateful to all the staff at Lakeview for celebrating with us and making our day perfect.

Perfect wedding day

Our wedding was a day we'll never forget, and that's all thanks to the team at Watersedge. In the midst of a rough year, we weren't sure what to expect for our September wedding. However, the staff made sure our day was perfect. All of the vendors were wonderful to work with and the day was even better than I imagined. Highly recommend checking out this venue, you won't be disappointed.

Amazing venue all around

From the start, watersedge was welcoming and helpful with all aspects of our wedding. I couldn’t imagine a more perfect day, the venue handed everything so the day was flawless. I wouldn’t go anywhere else, unless it’s one of their sister venues! Staff was amazing!! In-house florals were amazing!
