Rebekah K. Sent on 01/11/2023A beautiful lakeside dream
Our wedding at the Oaks went off beautifully! All off the staff was incredibly accommodating and we were able to have all of our wedding events at this venue. From the shower, to the rehearsal dinner, and family brunch the next day, each spot at the Oaks is unique and creates the perfect setting for your special day. -

Stephanie H. Sent on 12/20/2021The best place to have a wedding!
There is so much I can say about how perfect this venue was. Leigha and Liz were absolutely angels on my wedding day and the whole two years leading up to it. They are so attentive and answered all our questions, they were on top of everything during the wedding and did not miss a beat! They also let us reschedule the wedding two times due to covid and we’re so understanding. The venue itself is stunning and you can tell they put so much work into it. They even added a patio roof right before the wedding, so we were able to have it outside even though it rained!! We are so happy we got married here, I would do it again in a heartbeat.The Oaks Lakeside's reply:
Thank you so very much for your review, Stephanie! It was a long two years, but the end result was well worth it. It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Dan to help make your day as special as it could be, and I sincerely hope you'll drop in from time to time to have some dinner with us.
We wish you all the best! - The Oaks Events Team -

My daughter was married and had her reception at the Oaks this past Saturday. It was amazing! Kristi and her staff dis an exceptional job. The food was incredible and the venue was absolutely gorgeous. My daughter and I could not have chosen a better venue for her wedding. Kristi and the staff at the Oaks helped make it a perfect and memorable day!!The Oaks Lakeside's reply:

Anthony and I are so happy with our vendor choice with the Oaks Lakeside! We knew signing up for a 4 month engagement for a Spring wedding would be difficult (or impossible), but we couldn't be more pleased with our results! We were able to sign with the Oaks in this short time period, as they were available on the date of BOTH our parents wedding anniversaries! The facility was undergoing a HUGE renovation and we were to be their first run (which was a little nervewracking at first but so worth the results!) The new renovations at Oaks Lakeside are so beautiful! They have a HUGE bridal party room (good for the 8-person party I had). There was more than enough room for dancing, outside hangout, photos, and gifts/favors/seating chart. The food is AMAZING! The outdoor wedding ceremony rock pergola location was the reason I picked this venue--I've always wanted an outdoor wedding and the beach on the lakefront was the selling point. We were able to get incredible photos on the beach, wisteria walkway, with many flowers, statue silliness, and first look. I want to thank Kristi & Johnny for being so great about our many little requests & details: holding our date until I had the ringThe Oaks Lakeside's reply:
Thank you so much for the wonder review, Mary! We are so glad we had the availability and that you trusted us to host your beautiful wedding day.
Thank you again, Mary!
Ps. Your picture are Gorgeous! -

Brittany Sent on 11/09/2014We were very happy with our wedding at The Oaks Lakeside. It was beautiful and we received many compliments. The owner and wedding manager were both very helpful and helped us to have the wedding we wanted. We had a few minor things turn out differently then we planned, but because we were on top of things, we were able to communicate this with the venue and they worked with us to fix them. -

Jennifer Sent on 10/26/2010The Oaks Lakeside is a georgous place for a more smaller intimate wedding. The staff is willing to accomidate just about ever wish you could dream of. Audry was amazing to work with. The food was of course so delicious and even though I did the buffet the food did not at all taste like it was mas cooked for a buffet. I would recommond the Oaks to any couple wanting an elegant and yet laid back atmosphere for their wedding. -

Megan Sent on 08/18/2008The Oaks Lakeside is a hidden gem in the Medina, OH area. Growing up in the area, I knew of the Oaks and when I got engaged it was my first and only choice for a reception venue. I worked with Audrey who was friendly, knowledgable and always available to ask questions. Audrey was also very helpful in recommending vendors for chair covers and other services. The food and bar prices were extremely reasonable and my fiance and I had no trouble creating a menu that everyone would enjoy.
If you're concerned about the Oaks being in the middle of nowhere, here's what we did.......We hired BVIP Limo in Seville, OH to provide shuttle services to and from the reception to Hawthorne Suites Hotels in Seville. BVIP let us hire them from 4-6pm and from 9-12pm so we only had to pay them for 5 hours. Hawthorne Suites is also a very nice, new hotel in Seville that all of our guests really enjoyed. This way, all of our out of town guests could get back and forth from the hotel to the Oaks without getting lost in Chippewa!
Beautiful views of Chippewa Lake, gorgeous landscaping (including a gazebo and wisteria-covered pergola), a charming two-level dining area and incredible food....a year later all of my guests still talk about what a wonderful place the Oaks was. I highly recommend it to any bride! -
Tianna Sent on 10/10/2018The crew over at the Oaks was very helpful from day one. They responded right away to our inquiry for the venue and were very accommodating to our wants and needs. We visited the venue several times before our wedding (09/08) and Kristi was always willing to schedule our visits and show us around. Although there were several small hiccups throughout the process and before the wedding, Kristi and Johnny were always willing to work with us. The venue has a rustic and natural feel, with a variety of green spaces to take photos. We were very happy with our venue choice and the day of the wedding was a dream come true.
The Oaks Lakeside's reply:
Tianna & Dylan,
Thank you so much for your kind words. It was my pleasure to work with both of you. Come out and see us for dinner.

Super accommodating and wonderful event!
We originally scheduled our wedding for 8/22/2021, but with my husband entering the military we were u sure if we’d make the date. I cannot explain just how accommodating The Oaks Lakeside staff, particularly Leigha, was during this time. It was almost a year and a half long process from the day we toured the venue to my wedding day with multiple dates changes in between. The food was amazing, everything went off without a hitch, and I could not have asked for a better experience!! I absolutely recommend The Oaks Lakeside for you wedding, especially if it’s under 100 or so guests. -

Very beautiful venue
This venue is very beautiful and the value is great. I would recommend looking at this venue for your wedding. The venue does not have bridal rooms to get ready.The Oaks Lakeside's reply:
Hello Cara,
I am so glad you came out and liked our beautiful venue. I apologize if there was a misunderstanding about a bridal room, we do have two bridal rooms to choose from. Thank you for your Kind review. Have a wonderful afternoon.

Stephanie Sent on 11/15/2019Absolutely Dreamy
I absolutely loved this venue. My husband and I booked The Oaks without even looking at another venue, we knew nothing could possibly beat this location. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and the newly renovated interior is incredible. The new brides room is super spacious and even has its own private bathroom for the use of you and your bridal party. Everyone tells us how amazing the food was at our wedding. Everything went so smoothly on our wedding day as their coordinators truly know how to take care of things behind the scenes without you even knowing. The staff was incredibly friendly and everything about our day was an absolute dream. I would HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone considering it. They make dreams come true ❤️
