Lavender on the Lake Reviews

Everything you could ask for in a wedding venue - stunning lake views, beautiful scenery, gorgeous barn, breathtaking sunsets, amazing owners. I 100% recommend!

I found Lavender on the Lake on social media and fell in love with the pictures! The sunsets are amazing over the lake and the venue is spectacular! The wonderful owners gave us a tour and we booked immediately! Coming from an event background I recognize the the thought process behind the placement of everything! Such attention to detail! We can’t wait for our big day!

When I went on my tour at Lavender on the Lake with Jason and Shelley, I instantly fell in love with their space, their envision, and their overall strong value for their upcoming business. Lavender on the Lake made me feel so special and personalized that I could never imagine going to another venue. I had an amazing experience communicating with Shelley and Jason. I had specific envisions for how I wanted my special day to go about, and they were very accommodating and understanding regarding those visions. Once we agreed upon all of the logistics, a contract was timely sent over and we booked immediately! When they were explaining their vision for the venue, you could really feel their passion and attention to detail, which made me so excited going into booking my wedding! Not to mention the fact that their entire family (and more) were working during my tour, and I can really see everything coming together. I could keep going on and on, but I overall had an amazing experience in every aspect with this venue and I could not be more excited for my special day!! 10/10 recommend for anyone and everyone looking for a wedding venue!!!

Every encounter I had with someone from Lavender on the Lake was awesome. They are super kind, understanding, and flexible when it came to envisioning how I wanted my special day to play out. They also had amazing communication when scheduling tours and honestly just chatting about plans. I would totally recommend for every one!!!

We cannot wait to have our wedding at Lavender on the Lake! The entire family was out there working and we feel like we are a part of the family already.

As soon as my fiancée and I saw this amazing venue we knew it was our place. We have it booked for our fall wedding. The sunsets are absolutely stunning. The building was exactly what we wanted. The owners have been so easy to work with. I know we are going to have the wedding of our dreams.

Very rarely do you feel completely surrounded by a private, tranquil and heavenly space while attending intimate ceremonies or weddings. Lavender on the Lake is just that…a little slice of heaven that transports you somewhere else! Florida at its roots is on display and the sunsets are awe inspiring! The architecture of the building is classic and stunning! What a gem of a find!

I have done a lot of events and this is such an amazing venue. The views, the space for the vendors was incredible, and the attention to details for the vendors who come into the venue is a dream.

This venue is not completed currently but it's beautiful and the vision they have for it is great. I fell in love with this place as soon as I went to tour it. I originally planned to have a 2 day Indian wedding at this venue.

If you are looking to book this unit, I would say there are a few concerns as there are a lot of promises of getting things done on time which seem close to impossible in a little over 2 months (June 1st is their first wedding). The biggest reason I did not go with this venue is the Owner's Wife Shelley. She was very sweet during the tour, but she is frazzled very easily. She was not open to sending a contract for review before giving a verbal yes, she provided incorrect information regarding the ability to bring home cooked food for the Hindu ceremony and did not mention the day of coordinator requirement that is in their contract. Although these might seem minor, the situation that caused me to run in the opposite direction of this venue is Shelley's comments. I had sent an email regarding possibly having only one of my events at their venue and asked if the pricing provided was dependent on doing both days. She then called me, so I asked her the question and her response were "Yes" and then later said "No." That caused confusion so I asked the question again. She then responded with, "I will not be bullied into an answer." That statement threw me completely off and was extremely uncalled for and rude. It's her job to be able to provide those answers or state she will get back to me. At that point on, I asked for a sit-down meeting to also ask a few other questions and she stated I had to email so she could consult with an attorney. That seems very extreme regarding basic questions around the venue and contract.

In all, I DO NOT recommend booking them as they created added stress around something that should be exciting as an engaged couple. If she acted like this prior to booking, I could only imagine the hardships I would have if I booked the venue.
