a wedding to remember

Wow, where do i begin? i’ll start with Egda, the start of the show. we had our wedding here on 12/05/2020. our wedding day wouldn’t have been as amazing as it was without Egda!!! When i first found this place, i’ll say the ONLY thing i didn’t like about this venue was upstairs where the girls got ready. Edga completely surprise me and redid the whole room. i can’t even explain how beautiful she made the room, so i tried to post some pictures. she completely decked the place out and made the room look like it was off Pinterest. she even got me my favorite drink and got my son a gift as well. the guys room was spacious and fun for the guys. they played pool and relaxed as we got ready for the big day. she stocked the guys room with beer and snack. all of my wedding planning was made easy with her, she made my day as stress free as possible. i would recommend this place for a wedding or event over and over again. there was plenty of space, it was beautiful and the bartenders were awesome.
my family and friends can drink and they poured and poured. i felt like Edga truly made our day the best day ever. we love you and appreciate all that you put into our special day. thank you so so much!!!
ps- if you’re thinking about having your wedding here.. do it!! it’s affordable, picture worthy and did i mention you get EGDA?!?

This was the perfect venue for our wedding! We had to change the date for our reception and Chastity was so helpful in finding an available date that worked best for us! We had a bunch of kids at our wedding so having the reception inside was a big plus and it was right on the lake so the view was beautiful with the sunset! Parking was no issue at all and all of our guests were WOWed with how beautiful everything was! I would suggest this venue to anyone and everyone! Best bang for our buck by far!!!

I just had my wedding at this amazing venue on 9/5/15 and it was absolutely breathtaking. It's very up to date from the floor to the ceiling and I was really pleased with the renovations. The venue was perfect for my guests since the ceremony and reception were held at the same location and that was very convenient. I recommend this venue to anyone who wants to have an EPIC and memorable night with a touch of class and excellent staff! Thank you for making my wedding just PERFECT and I plan on having more events here!

My husband and I had never been to a wedding before and truly had no idea what the logistics were until we met with the coordinator at Lakeside Reception Hall. Chastity is extremely helpful, creative and open-minded and our wedding wouldn't have been what it was without her. She helped us through out the entire process and was there onsite the night of which was a huge relief because as many brides may know (many things can go wrong) and she was there helping along the way! I have asked my husband multiple time if we can throw an annual new years eve party here ....of course he said he needs a break from planning but I 100% suggest the Lakeside Reception Hall as the perfect venue for a wedding or a party. Not a single guest had a negative thing to say and that to me made everything worthwhile.

The Lakeside Reception Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding. We had 160 guests and it was the perfect size to accommodate everyone. We held our ceremony on the beautiful deck on the lake and celebrated with our reception in the hall. Lakeside gave us the freedom to bring in the vendors we wanted and were there for us every step of the way. Virgil and Chastity took wonderful care of us the day of our wedding - we couldn't have done it without them!
