Windermere Golf Club Reviews

Windermere was the perfect location for our wedding! The setting was so beautiful for an indoor/outdoor wedding. The staff was so easy to work with and made the day perfect!

Windermere is a beautiful venue! We had our ceremony and reception there and it was perfect. My bridal party and I got ready in the bridal suite and I even decided to have the bridal suite package that included drinks, food, and champagne which was perfect for getting ready!
Heather, Brittany, Andrea, and the entire staff are great to work with and made everything perfect and go so smooth. It rained the morning of our wedding and the ceremony was outdoors, but the ground was soaking wet and the team at Windermere was able to move the venue closer to the clubhouse, so the ceremony could still be outdoors and it was perfect!!! The food was delicious, we had cocktail hour with bacon wrapped scallops, cheese display, and teriyaki beef kabobs. For the reception it was a seated buffet and everything was cooked perfectly nothing was overcooked or under cooked. I was told by guest of how good the food was. One thing I loved about the venue was the views it has the water and weeping willow which are perfect for photos. I highly recommend Windermere for a wedding venue you will not be disappointed!!!

We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception at Windermere in June and we could not have asked for a more perfect venue. We had the ceremony down by the lake, which was a perfect setting for a June wedding, and had our reception inside the clubhouse. We had around 150 people and it was a perfect space for that number. Brittany was hired in the middle of our planning process, and the transition from working with Lisa to Brittany was incredibly smooth. Even being new to Windermere, she was always able to accurately and quickly answer all of our million questions and accomodate all of our requests. The staff did all of the setting up and breaking down of tables and chairs, folding napkins, tying bows, etc. which was a huge help. They even had the reception room set up the night before so that our vendors could come as early as they needed to on the day of the wedding. The bridal suite was large and comfortable and we were able to come as early as we wanted on the day of the wedding to start getting ready. The food that we chose at our tasting was yummy, and the selection of different beers and wines at the bar was pretty large!! I am a huge perfectionist and had such a detailed vision for my wedding. This sometimes leads to disappointment, however Windermere did NOT disappoint! My husband and I agree that our wedding was more perfect than we even imagined. I would recommend Windermere to anyone looking for a wonderful venue!

Amazing venue, they executed everything that my husband and I wanted to make our day special. Lisa is amazing and listens to everything you say. She goes above and beyond to make sure your day goes as planned. Above all, they made my day stress free. Before i forget, the food here is amazing, i still have guests talking about the food especially their coconut shrimp.

We went to look a lot of venues...but Chris and I couldn't have picked a better one for many reasons. Our wedding was everything we wanted and more. Not only did Windermere provide great service to us during the wedding-- they also provided it before and after the wedding. The ceremony was perfect. The back drop of our ceremony was perfect along from the arbor to the chairs. Our guests enjoyed the cocktail hour and buffet. The reception was amazing due to the recommendations Lisa made. The linens made everything really come together and pop. The flowers were everything we wanted and our DJ rocked. Everything came together just as we wanted and you can't put a value on that. However, when it falls within budget it does get a little sweeter. This wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for Lisa and Sarah. They are very reasonable and suggest other extremely high quality vendors with a reasonable price as well. I wouldn't get married anywhere else.

Thank you,
Chris and Jackie

I would recommend Windermere Golf Club especially Lisa and her staff to anyone looking to any type of event venue. They are great at listening to what you envision and helping you find the best way to make it happen. My husband and I were very pleased with the entire planning process and the wedding!

We had an outdoor wedding ceremony at Windermere, with a reception following inside, and everything was fantastic! Lisa was a wonderful event director and worked with us to ensure that every detail was perfect. They really went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly and everyone had a great time.
I would highly recommend Windermere as a wedding & reception venue-- they made ours memorable and we loved it!

Windermere Golf Club,

Jamie (Catering Director) of Windermere and her staff did a fabulous job making our wedding one of the most spectacular days of our lives. My guests could not stop raving about the service. The food was delicious and the beer was flowing. The venue was absolutely breath-taking with all the little details they help put together. Jamie was very professional and flexible when I had questions abour specific things and was always able to give an answer to my questions. She was always able to give her full attention at our meetings and wrote down in detail as to what we wanted. The night ran flawlessly and it showed to our guests. The valule of the venue was extremely reasonable and there were countless of options and a variety of food and bar packages to choose from. I never felt that I had to choose something that wouldn't appeal to my guests or at my request. Thank you so much for making this day the best day of our lives, because of Windermere Golf Club Kevin and I will have the best memories of our lives and we owe a lot of thanks to them.

Windermere was the perfect setting for my June wedding. We got married outside by the pond and had the cocktail hour and reception inside. I just loved how it had indoor and outdoor space. We had about 140 people. We did have to put 3 tables outside on the patio, but our friends like to be outside anyways and we didn't start the dinner till 8pm so it was nice and cool. It would prob. fit 100-120 for everyone to be inside comfortably. Jennifer Osmanson was wonderful. She is the coordinator there and she is awesome. She helped me the whole way and answered any questions that I had. I can't tell you the number of times we went and toured and brought people back. At windermere they don't nickle and dime you for everything. For example, there is no extra cost for standard linens, chairs, and you can actually use the centerpieces they have (hurricane vase, with marbles and a candle, with a mirror underneath). It was the best value for the money that you will find anywhere. It was perfect. The price i put included all rentals, food, beer/wine.

Windermere is a beautiful place to have a wedding! My wedding was absolutely perfect in everyway! Jennifer Osmanson and her staff are very friendly and helpful! I can not say enough good things about them!

Perfect venue for our 100 person wedding. Has a warm feel right off the bat. We loved working with Lisa and she put us at ease about everything. Was so nice to not have to worry about food or the staff. They took charge and handled everything- we just had to show up!

I couldn't say enough good things about the Windermere Golf Club. The only con about the venue is that you really need to start the wedding ceremony after the golfers are gone. However, during the summer is not an issue in any way. My wife and I had an amazing wedding at Windemere. I was shocked how far our money went at this location as we were on a pretty tight budget. The grounds are awesome and having a lake side wedding at this location is a beautiful as any place. I'll always thank Jennifer for making out wedding stand out despite the low budget we were working with.

We could not have asked for a more beautiful day or location! A few hiccups, but nothing on the day of the wedding. Andrea and the staff at Windermere truly gave us a day that we will remember forever!

I'm so glad we went with Windermere Golf Club as our wedding venue! We were actually already booked with another vendor when we stumbled upon Windermere. Even with losing out on our deposit with the first vendor we still stayed in budget and couldn't have been happier with our switch. Diane & Jamie were great to work with!

Overall, I was pretty happy with my choice in venue. The servers were really great at the reception. My husband did have a few problems before the ceremony though (which I was blissfully unaware of) :). The ladies had a bridal suite upstairs. When the men arrived, they asked where they should change and they were told there wasn't anywhere for them to change. They ended up changing in the bathroom downstairs and a bridesmaid had to go down and pick up all of their things. I think my husband would have liked to have somewhere to "base" from and relax before the ceremony, but there wasn't really a place for that. Also, Its unclear exactly what happened, but apparently there was loud rap music coming from the clubhouse next door right before my ceremony, and when my husband asked them to turn the music off, he was told "There isn't anything we can do about that." Our best man ended up getting VERY firm with the wedding coordinator and they found a way to call over to the other clubhouse and shut the music off. I'm glad they were able to fix that, as I would have been very upset to walk down the isle to "Baby Got Back", which is apparently what all my guests had to listen to as they walked in.

I thought I was getting a really good value at the time of my wedding, but just a few short weeks after my wedding I look on thier website to see a "special" which is almost HALF of what I paid. I paid less than the rates in brochure and Needless to say, I feel pretty ripped off right now!

I do have to say the food was great, and the cake maker they reccomended (Cake Envy) was the BEST cake ever and AMAZING prices!

BTW, they serve Barefoot wine at the bar as thier house wine... If you haven't ever had it before...Its plain terrible.

Golfers were still playing, which would be okay if they were QUIET, but many guests tell me they were laughing and yelling during the ceremony. I didn't hear it, so no harm no foul.

Overall though, it was a wonderful expierece and Jamie and Diane were pretty awesome and helpful!!! Glad I got married there overall!
