Amazing group

My fiance & I were invited to this venue for a fun Friday night holiday date night. Their invitation also gave us a chance to get out of the house amidst cov19 in a safely distanced & intimate environment while also being given information regarding what the venue offered. We were greeted at the door by the entire crew for just the 2 of us which started the night off with such a VIP feeling, hospitable experience. Upon being given a complimentary charcuterie board w/a wide variety of snacks, fun cocktails, & the opportunity to make a cute "Our 1st Christmas Engaged" ornament, we were given so much more than one could ask of a venue or its supporting members. It's not every day you can meet all the supporting vendors you could possibly need on your big day all in 1 spot, being able to ask all the questions you have for them. Not to mention the vibes they give off being a team that's worked so well together for a large number of years created such a sweet feeling & very comforting to see. They were patient, sweet, informative, kind, so very personable, and just all around fun to spend your evening with & hang out. Tell me there is another vendor out there who will also, for the price of $0, give you advice on helpful tips you might not be able to hear from anyone else. Not only did they offer tips for the big day regarding things like lighting & how to get the pictures you want but they eagerly gave you a guided dance lesson, relationship pointers & marital advise for a continued strong marriage after the fact once the exciting day was something behind you. This venue with it's crew of supporting vendors was the very 1st one we saw on our journey of venue hunting, and we wanted so badly to book them right there on the spot. We are venturing around because its just what you do when you've only seen 1 place but it will be a very hard example for other vendors to try and follow or compete with for sure!

Most unique space in the entire Midwest!

This place is NOT your typical banquet hall with old furniture, disco balls and chandeliers from the 50's! Shores feels more like a lodge in Yellowstone NP! It is warm, inviting and spacious. And the owner runs the place like a well-oiled machine! Our day - even with rain at an outdoor setting - was flawless.

Beautiful Venue!

The shores of Turtle creek was such a beautiful venue. I would Highly recommend. You have the whole property so it is just your event going on and the scenery is just beautiful especially in June which is when we got married. You don’t need a lot of decorations because the venue itself is just stunning. Anna was wonderful to work with! She was on top of everything and even though she is not a day of coordinator, she helped to make sure everything went smoothly on our wedding day. We did a butterfly release during the ceremony and this venue was the perfect backdrop. Anna was absolutely amazing and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding at the shores of turtle creek! I cannot say enough good things about this place. 10/10 recommend!
