Best decision ever!

We had the wedding of our dreams at the The Luminaire. From the moment we booked, the Luminaire team made us feel like family. Leslie, Balie, Carl, and Travis exceeded my expectations in every category. They provided a list of preferred vendors which were reasonably priced & all had outstanding reviews- I was super happy with the vendors that we decided to go with. Their online portal made payment super easy, & the private facebook group Luminaire Brides was an awesome way to ask questions & see what other brides were doing for their weddings. The team really goes above & beyond to make your experience with them very special & personalized. Our whole wedding experience was so amazing, especially during COVID. We booked the venue when they were still building in February & when COVID hit they made us feel so at ease. We literally had no concerns because of how quick they were to answer questions, & to reassure us that they would be with us every step of the way, no matter what happened. We loved all the complements that friends, family, and even our vendors were giving us on how beautiful the venue was. It made us feel on top of the world! It's been almost two months since we were married and our guests are still raving about how perfect our day was. I can’t thank Leslie, Balie, Carl, Travis & the rest of the team enough!! I absolutely love them and it was such an honor to have them be apart of such a special time in me & Sterlings life.

They Will Always Prioritize You

I had the amazing opportunity of working with The Luminaire Team for my couple's November wedding.

Every characteristic of this venue was thought out with detail - the double rounded bar, chapel, cocktail hour space and the outside views are gorgeous.

We had a firework grand entrance and the outdoor lake area was the perfect setting to create the romance and excitement.

Any question we had, the team was readily available to answer and/or help to the best of their ability. When selecting this location as your venue, feel safe in knowing they will always prioritize your experience as the couple, your wedding party's experience and the guest experience.

A beautiful venue and a professional vendor

The Luminare should be on your short list for your or your child's wedding. From the initial tour to the wedding day, they were both very professional but with an added excitement for the bride and groom. There policies were straight forward and they were always quick to respond to any questions. The wedding went very smooth with the Luminaire staff working closely with the vendors. We received many compliments on the location of the venue and how beautiful the facility is. I highly recommend them for your next event.

Amazing Amazing!!

The Luminaire is so beautiful and all my dreams came true! A very modern venue and wonderful staff and very understanding!! We booked our wedding date 1 year and 7 months in advance! And whenever we needed them or had questions we had no issue to get in contact with them. The packages they have make planning so much easier, no need to look all over for vendors as they have the main ones in the package and they are worth it! I definetly recommend The Luminaire you wont regret it! Our wedding day was so amazing! If I could relive it all over again I would do it the same way at the same venue! Thank you Luminaire for such an amazing memory that my husband and I were able to create!

The most beautiful venue

We were deciding between this venue and another and we are so glad this is the one we chose! The owners and all of the staff really made our experience amazing. Pictures of the venue are beautiful but it really doesn't do it justice until you see it in person! It was raining on our wedding day but since the chapel, cocktail area, and reception area are all inside and connected, it didn't even put a damper on our day and I wasn't stressed about it. I absolutely loved the pews, floor to ceiling windows, and chandeliers in the chapel. My husband and his groomsmen loved the grooms suite. The absolute only downside is that the big pond was a chocolate brown color but I believe that was due to recent weather. Still sooo beautiful and 10/10 recommend this venue!

1000% Recommend!

The Luminaire was the perfect place for our wedding! The venue itself is beautiful and once it was all set up on our big day, it was perfect! Our entire experience from the tour of the venue a year and a half ago to the wedding this past weekend was amazing! We chose to select an all inclusive package that included the venue space, food catering, cake, flowers, and DJ. They made it very easy to set up the meetings with each of our vendors that were included. We had 3 meetings with our event planner, Mary, in the year leading up to our wedding that were all very helpful. I was one who asked for lots of suggestions and she was always more than happy to help! Mary was also our day of coordinator and we can not thank her enough for making our day so great!! Our event manager, Rachel, was also so helpful and running all around for us the day of! I would 1000% recommend The Luminaire!

Exceeded our expectations - great venue!

The Luminaire exceeded our expectations as our wedding venue. Not only is the venue stunning (as expected), but the customer service is beyond amazing. Mary, our in-house wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to help make our wedding day perfect. She's very good at what she does and completely understood my vision from the start. From the planning process to the actual wedding day, she was with me every step of the way to make sure my vision came to life. Rachel, the venue manager, was also amazing and helped us in any way she could. Even the venue owner, Balie, was super helpful and stopped by on our wedding day to give us her best wishes. Literally, the entire staff was a joy to work with and made the entire process enjoyable. I can not recommend this venue enough!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
