My daughters wedding 10/17/2025

I can’t say enough how amazing this venue is, we had the ceramony overlooking the lake with an amazing fountain, cocktail hour on the balcony which was so spacious and the grand ballroom for the reception, the decor throughout made for such an elegant wedding, incredibly the venue comes with a wedding coordinator and we had the best help with Hayley, she was interested in every detail and help tremendously along the way , she responded quickly to emails and calls and we had several meet ups, she troubleshooted if something arose which really not much did because she was on top of everything, she checked on vendors and went over every detail ahead of time, our experience with the venue and Hayley was a #10

Amazing Day!

I would like to personally thank Amy for all her hard work and patience in working with me to facilitate the perfect wedding day for our daughter and her fiancé. We had been on the planning journey about 15 months and I sincerely appreciate Amy's patience, assistance, expertise and professionalism throughout that journey.

Everyone had a wonderful time and loved everything! The staff was amazing and kind, the food delicious and bar was flowing! The grounds and surroundings were perfect for the wedding pictures.

Highly recommend!!

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate our big day than LWRGCC! From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was going to be the perfect place. It is truly such a beautiful venue with beautiful views (especially during sunset)! There were so many great spots for photo opportunities. On top of it being stunning, it is in the perfect location (close to airports and many hotels), which made it convenient for our many out-of-state guests. The food was delicious and the staff were all so incredible! Hayley and Maxine were so welcoming and attentive. Hayley was easy to communicate with and provided so many amazing suggestions that helped make the day even more special. Nothing was overlooked! So glad we chose LWRGCC- everything was perfect!

The perfect day!

Our wedding was just yesterday and I knew I wanted to write a review as soon as I possibly could - LWRGCC made my wedding day absolutely unforgettable. Amy is incredible. Maxine is incredible. Every staff member we had an interaction with was amazing. Even with hiccups in our timeline, not caused by or to the fault of LWRGCC, Amy kept my now husband and I calm and collected, got us back on track and absolutely knocked it out of the park. I am not an easy person to deal with when I’m frustrated and Amy did not bat an eye and absolutely turned my day around for the best. She even went as far as bustling my dress for me! From the moment we booked our wedding date, to the date itself, the communication and attention we received was impeccable. Food is amazing, the venue is beautiful, and I would highly recommend this venue for any event. The attention to detail and eye for aesthetics the staff has is superb. I would get married again in a heartbeat, but only if it were at LWRGCC with Amy & Maxine!

You have to book your wedding here!

We recently had our wedding at Lakewood Ranch Golf and country club and it was nothing short of magical. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew it was the perfect place to say “I do.” The venue itself is stunning—beautifully maintained grounds, charming architecture, and an elegant yet welcoming atmosphere that made our day feel incredibly special.

The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Our coordinator was responsive, organized, and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. They worked seamlessly with our vendors and made sure we didn’t have to worry about a single thing on the big day.

Our guests are still raving about the ambiance, the delicious food, and the overall experience. Whether you’re going for a classic, romantic vibe or something more modern and unique, this venue can truly be transformed to fit your style.

Best decision we've ever made!

I found out about Lakewood Ranch Golf & Country Club because of their great reviews and the moment my husband & I stepped foot into their venue- we fell in love.
Meeting Hayley on top of that has been an absolute pleasure. We are extremely lucky to have met and worked with her. She made the wedding planning process so much easier for us. She answered our emails in a timely fashion and with great detail. She handled my type A personality with so much grace! Their team is extremely experienced and made us feel so at ease with every step of the way. They also coordinated with all the other vendors we hired and we've heard nothing but great feedback from our other vendors about how organized and easy it is to work with LRGCC.

They provide day of coordination and food/ drinks once you decide to work with them. We did the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception at their venue and it made it so much easier for our guests.
We received numerous amounts of compliments about the wedding venue and food itself. It was beautiful and everything we could have asked for! The food was delicious- we got the herb crusted salmon and beef short ribs as our main entrees and it was PHENOMENAL!

My husband and I also come from different cultures (Filipino & Vietnamese) and we had specific requests for our program to accommodate for some traditions & performances we wanted. The LRGCC team handled it so flawlessly and made sure that we don't worry about anything come wedding day. It was truly so amazing.

We highly recommend them! It was the best decision we've ever made !

Above and Beyond

Hayley and all the service providers were exceptional. They were friendly, professional and incredibly accommodating . All of our requests were met with a can do attitude . It rained so we weren't able to have the wedding on the grass near the golf course but the staff quickly made an adjustment so that instead of having to go inside we were under a covering on the patio which turned out to be delightful . The rain and golf course were a beautiful backdrop for our incredibly special day .
The food and venue are top tier . The service was as if we were at the Ritz . We could not be happier with how the Lakewood Ranch Golf and Country Club provided for our wedding. 🙏🏼

Wonderful venue!

When our original wedding venue had to cancel on us just days before the big day, we were in desperation. Thankfully, Hayley and the team at Lakewood Ranch Golf and Country Club reached out a compassionate hand and not only accommodated us last-minute, but made our wedding day even more perfect than we could have imagined. Their communication was incredibly thorough, as they discussed every detail with us, even more so than our previous venue. On the day, the staff's professionalism shone through as they set up everything exactly as we wanted, allowing us to relax and enjoy the beautiful, spacious, and inviting space. The guests were raving about how beautiful the venue was, and how delicous the food was! Lakewood Ranch Golf and Country Club truly went above and beyond to make our special day run smoothly, and I cannot recommend them enough.

Absolute Perfection

I can not say enough about how incredible this venue is. First it is absolutely stunning, second the staff is incredible, third they made sure everything single thing was picture perfect. I wish I could relive this day over and over and over again. Huge shout out to Haley for also being so amazing to work with. 1000/10 stars. I would highly recommend booking this venue!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
