Among Lakeside Weddings & Eventsā many wedding sites is Heritage Garden, a lush garden that features a grand walkway, arches intertwined with greenery, and lakefront views.

All locations at Lake Weddings & Events come with both ceremony-only and full wedding packages. These can accommodate between 10 guests for intimate soirees and 100 people for grander affairs.

This one-stop shop approach allows you to minimize stress and enjoy a beautiful and sophisticated nuptials experience in a sought-after metropolitan area.
Lakeside Weddings and Events Center went above and beyond to make our wedding memorable and like it came straight from a fairytale! The view of the lake at the Heritage garden took my breath away the moment I laid my eyes on it but it was even more breathtaking when I walked down the aisle and said āI doā to my now husband. Nicolerose Ramirez was our day-of coordinator and whenever I had a request or question she was on top of it! She was amazing and made our experience that much more amazing. Our photographer, DJ, bartenders, and officiant were all through the venue and they were amazing as well. All in all our experience with this vendor exceeded our expectations and our wedding turned into the most magical night and was better than both my husband and I ever imagined it would be. I would recommend them over and over again to anybody whoās getting married or even renewing their vows! Reviewed on 23-09-2023

This is a late review but Iāve got nothing but praises for the Lakeside. They made everything about my wedding so easy to plan. I was from out of state and just communicated with the coordinator via email. They will provide everything and the prices were reasonable. I highly recommend this to anyone getting married.

Stacy Santos(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-11-2021 Other than the location I cannot recommend this company. My wedding was 11/27/21 and the only thing that was correct in what we paid for and requested was the actual location and the weather. The staff was not helpful with setting up decorations on the tables. The staff was not professionally dressed at all. They looked like they were hired off the street or wearing sweats and/or pajamas. The coordinator Leslie was completely unprofessional, talking to my guests about her \"dead husband\" and not liking her job and wanting to hopefully meet someone at one of the events she oversees. The flowers were wrong, wrong colors, and wrong boquet style.The food was wrong, and the employees took what was left after the first round, so my guests could not get up and get another serving and the wedding cake was wrong.An employee stole an envelope with $500 in cash from my parents' right off the table as they got up to dance. When we confronted Leslie, the coordinator with the situation, she ran and locked herself in her office. We asked her to please check the cameras and video and she refused. She offered no apologies or to look into the situation or till this day no feedback. I have called several times and left several messages for Angelina McKenzie and the conpany owner with no call back. The only thing offered were excuses and trying to put blame back on us by Angelina McKenzie.I left several messages for Angelina McKenzie, Felicia (floral manager) , Alison Johnson (photographer), and the Owner of the company regarding the several issues and still have not heard back from anyone.You and your company made this bride cry on her wedding day, and you should've made sure it was the best day ever for me, my husband and our guests.I do not recommend Lakeside Weddings for your wedding. Let's see how long it takes for a response to this review. Reviewed on 02-02-2022
Whitney Schwartz(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-09-2021 Donāt book this venue unless it is your very last possible available option in the entire state of Nevada. When decided on a destination wedding in Las Vegas, we didnāt want anything hosted by an Elvis impersonator or any of the other cliches. We wanted something beautiful and quaint while not being too far from the strip. Lakeside Weddings and Events checked every single one of those boxes. Our date was available and everything felt so perfect, we couldnāt send our deposit over fast enough. When I say we were thrilled to have booked this venue, we couldnāt have gushed enough over it.The last 6 weeks, or so, leading up to our wedding we submitted all of the documents Lakeside and Wynndy requested regarding food, music, and so on, everything seemed to be going to plan. We were truly over the moon for this day.Fast forward to the day before our wedding, the first time we got to see our venue in person. Instantly upon arriving to the venue, it seemed no one even knew we were coming - let alone that it was a scheduled appointment. Finally someone acknowledged us and then we were placed with a different woman⦠a woman who was seemingly brand new to every detail of our wedding. Including financial agreements such as we paid an additional fee for additional time and this person flat out told us we were wrong, despite what the contract blatantly stated.Long story short, this woman was the end to our dream wedding. If it couldāve backed out then and there we wouldāve been on our way to the strip to find an Elvis impersonator to host our wedding. And I wish I was exaggerating. But back to before the wedding.Once we were finally able to track down Wynndy, our contact the entire duration of planning this wedding, she also told us we were wrong when I had our contract that clearly showed the additional time paid for in my hands. Both of these women gave us incredibly pretentious attitudes, along with gaslighting us by continuing to tell us we were wrong, the day before our wedding over things that were later found to be correct in our favor. As I was waiting to walk down the aisle, I couldnāt help but realize the song I was supposed to be walking down said aisle to was already playing for the bridal party. All music was clearly written in the documents we were asked to submit. When I waved at the DJ we were given (a part of the venue fee - you get no credit if you want to book another) to let him know the music was off, he just pointed his finger towards this woman ruining our ceremony music, blatantly showing how little he cared about this wedding. Not a single song we requested for our ceremony was played at the correct time. Including the one I was supposed to walk down the aisle to.Fast forward to our reception, when my now husband quite literally had to bribe this DJ with money to get him to turn up the music because even at the back table of a reception for a wedding of 50, I could hardly hear the music.All of this to say if you want to waste your money on a venue who couldnāt care less about you or your desires for one of the biggest days of your life, Lakeside Weddings is for you. They aim to displease and quite literally ruin some of the biggest parts of your day.Overall this is a beautiful venue with some of the worst wedding coordinators I have ever experienced. Did I mention Iāve been a wedding photographer for 12 years? Take my advice, go somewhere else. Sadly, this place couldnāt care less. Reviewed on 28-12-2021
Damien Neves(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-08-2021 Unfortunately our wedding on 8/28/21 was not what we expected at all. Our guests made the best of it while the staff completely dropped the ball for the following reasons.1.Our wedding planner was literally switched 3 times in 1 year of planning . (Communication and promises made were never followed up with)2. Upon arriving to the venue we were told there was a groom suite we would be able to wait in . There wasn't. Just 7 grooms and my parents waiting in a lobby for 1 hour š. We were told the day of the wedding that they no longer had a groom suite available and that it wasn't in our contract.3. Photos took waaay too long . Over 2 hours of our reception time . (I highly recommend getting pictures done in advance by your own photographer)4. Had our first dance around 8pm and our wedding was supposed to end at 10pm š¤. Time table was very off and WE had to pay $500 out of pocket to extend our wedding 1 hour.5. Food was improperly cooked (potatoes were raw and crunchy) and we didn't have enough children plates served which had my guests running down the street to get there kids food because the kids were denied access to our buffet line. 1 hr later they apologized and brought out more kids plates.6. The DJ (\"MC\") was absolutely horrible . Made her a whole Playlist which was mostly r&b and hip hop and somehow we ended up with Stand by Me & Bubbly by Colby Callet as our money dance song šš¤¦š½āāļø. She was not involved with the guest and literally stood in a booth the whole time playing songs off of a computer.7. Guests didn't even know we had cut the cake because the \"MC\" never announced the cake cutting.8. A portion of our wedding favors were never displayed with our other favors because they contained alcohol in them and we had children at our wedding (mini liquor store style shot bottles). Instead they were displayed on the bartop which our guest were taking and drinking thinking they were provided by the bar. (This was very upsetting because we paid for the open bar and they were using our purchased favors to serve the guests).9. After pointing out obvious mistakes a few days after the wedding, the wedding coordinator became very defensive and continued to talk over me while I was voicing my concerns . I found that very rude and unprofessional.The wedding venue did end up apologizing and they gave us our final hour and picture package for free but it came no where close to the money we spent on this event. I strongly advise anyone booking a wedding here to make sure EVERYTHING is written down in the contract you sign.This is a beautiful venue but I can not and will not recommend this place to anyone due to the mistakes that occurred.

Sheltcey Timani(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-04-2019 My husband and I were married here almost one month ago. It was very beautiful. In my opinion, it was pretty pricey for just a 30 minutes ring ceremony, but in the end it was worth every penny. We were able to get married in Las Vegas without the flashy flashy Vegas vibe and everyone there complimented how beautiful the venue was. They have a few different venue options that are all very beautiful. My only wish is that we could have been married at sunset, I was told that they don't book at sunset for the ceremony only option. I also feel like they were just a bit dismissive because it was only a ceremony and not a reception as well, but I don't read too much into it because I live out of state and many things can be misconstrued in emails and texts.

Saretha99992 (bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-08-2015 Lakeside Wedding Events provided a second to none wedding experience. Under the watchful and meticulous eye of Mrs. Jhanae Loring my sole wedding coordinator, the entire wedding and reception never saw a hiccup or mistake. The wedding and reception was an intimate (70 guests) gathering for family and friends. The venue was warmly transformed into my dream venue and the cost was very AFFORDABLE for everything contained within my selected package. From the plum and silver decor to the gold overtones in the reception room, my wedding vision came true to life. I could not ask for a more perfect place to say \"I Do\". Jhanae unselfishly gave me sage advice throughout the entire process, which included careful orchestration of the menu selection, music, entertainment, wedding decor, and floral arrangements. Because my fiance was in Afghanistan and wasn't due back the states until a week before the wedding, planning rested solely on me, which made me have to rely on Jhanae's wedding expertise. From the day I walked into her office looking for wedding assistance she helped me overcome my nervousness, and wedding jitters. My event was at sunset so the lake was beautiful and the perfect backdrop for the ceremony. I could go on and on about the venue, the extraordinary level of customer service, professional photography, the picture booth, the food and wedding cake bakery and the DJ because each of these services were \"FIRST RATE\". Everything about this place oozed of FIRST CLASS so having your wedding and reception afterwards at this facility makes the bride and groom King and Queen for the day. You will not be disappointed if you decide to hold your magical event at this venue. You cannot go wrong with planning and having your wedding at Lakeside. Trust me on this one :) You will not be disappointed. Reviewed on 16-11-2015

Beautiful venue and a great price. \r\rI loved they they allowed us to bring in our own camera and allowed our guests to take pictures. The photography company that they use is a joke! I have had tons of photo shoots with professional photographers and have always felt the prices were right. However the company they use is way over priced! like hundreds of dollars over priced. To have them put 9 pictures on a disc (that you can barely see online) was 295$ or 100$ per photo for copyright release, (that's insane to me). \r\rThe florist Robin at Lakeside Flowers is Very nice!

Andrea Ligon(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-12-2014 We chose to have our wedding within the same venue as our reception for ease and convenience. The venue was beautiful, easy to find for our guests. We chose an option that included a photographer as it is the contract that we had to use their photographer. I wish we could have used our own as I felt that the photographer was really rushed and missed some moments that we would have liked captured. Our \"wedding planner\" was very nice, however seemed a bit elsewhere on our day. Also we requested to speak to the minister prior to the wedding as we had a special request, first were told we could only speak to him on the day of and then with further requests were allowed to do so. Not sure if our request kind of put off the planner or not or if it was just not typical for bride & groom to be allowed to speak to minister prior as he is subcontracted. We were told at the time of our booking that there were no other events booked that day and therefore could take our time changing into our dinner attire. Turns out there was another event booked and it just wasn't communicated so felt pretty rushed. Our dinner (partnered with Lakeside for timing but was a separate charge) was to be ready for guests by 3:30pm and was not ready so this caused some displacement of our guests as well. Typical Las Vegas weather would have been fine out next to the lake to chat, unfortunately it was freezing. \r\rThe day itself turned out well just wish some of the details could have been handled a little more proficiently for our taste.

Kasey Willhite(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-10-2014 We recently held our ceremony and reception at Lakeside and everything turned out wonderful! There was a little stress with my coordinator being changed 2 months prior to the wedding but everything came together in the end. The day went on without a hitch and was more beautiful than we had imagined. I would definitely recommend this venue for anyone wanting an atmosphere that isn't typical \"Vegas\".

Anonymous (bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-10-2014 If you're looking for a beautiful non-Vegas looking location with the value and perks of a Vegas wedding this is the place for you. All of the staff are very helpful and no matter the request they go above and beyond to make sure that they meet your needs. Jhanae Loring, my coordinator with them, always sent me a summary of everything we discussed so that I could look back at it later and have peace of mind that I had covered everything. She was very efficient but also fun, not stuck up and trying to sell you everything like a lot of coordinators-we would know, we cancelled 16 deposits and our old venue before choosing to do our wedding with Lakeside. \rLakeside has salon and dry cleaning services on site which make it very convenient to get everything done without running all over town. Their onsite florist, Robin Williams is also incredible. We had a special last minute fall request on our flowers which she took care of with ease and made our flowers really pop for our wedding. \rEverything went so smoothly and all of the planning/putting together was so stress free for the price and value of the services received that I wouldn't change a thing and would recommend Lakeside and it's staff to anyone looking at getting married in Vegas. If you're looking for amazing service and a beautiful wedding no matter what your budget is then Lakeside may be for you and your wedding. \rA HUGE thank you to everyone at Lakeside for making this the wedding of our dreams. It was beautiful but at the same time very us and down to earth. Thank you for taking the time to hear us out on what we wanted and not trying to paint a picture of how you thought it should be for us and then selling it to us. You guys are amazing!

Lakeside Desert Shores was an amazing place to have a small intimate wedding. The event was in what I call the Secret Garden. (Heritage Garden?) Guests walk along a slate stone pathway covered by flowers & greenery to a landing that looks out on the water dotted with rows of white chairs for guests to be seated at. We got married under a beautiful gazebo covered in greenery with ducks and swans in the background. All the guests commented that it was one of the most beautiful weddings they had been to because of the intimate setting. They were not expecting that in Vegas. Our Coordinator Wynndy was the best. She was so friendly, extremely nice, efficient and accommodating Someone I consider a friend now. The day of the wedding she was so organized and everything ran exactly as planned, which never happens. I was very happy with Lakeside and would refer anyone looking for a special place to get married away from the strip. Everything is basically done for you and you don't have to worry about a thing. Try to plan it around sunny weather but even if it rains Lakeside has a plan B. Reviewed on 12-05-2014

Alicia (Cashman Photography) took over 300 pictures and had so much patience with us.

I had my wedding at Lakeside Weddings on March 29, 2014. The service was great, the food was great, and the dancing was great. As the planning process took way, Lakeside Weddings was so helpful in helping along the way. It seemed like each month I was contacted by each department to plan the flowers, the food, the cake, and photography. It was a smooth process especially since I do not live in Las Vegas.

Nora Rodriguez(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-06-2013 The Lakeside Wedding venue is breathtaking and it allows for the wedding pictures to come out amazing! However, the service is little to be desired. It took days to receive a returned call. The assigned wedding planner knew little about the options available. The wedding pictures were delayed, when promised within 10 days they would be ready. In fact, I called several times before I received a concrete answer as to why the pictures had not been sent to us. The flowers which were on the bouquets were fresh and the bouquet was simply elegant. Nice job. Lastly, the guests are sent on their way immediately once the ceremony is done. I did not like this since we wanted to take pictures with our family and friends. Overall, i would not recommend this venue. Reviewed on 11-07-2013

Candace Kmitta(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-09-2011 I can't give them enough praises! In addition to the typical wedding jitters one gets while planning their own wedding we were also in the process of moving for school. Besides not wanting to cheapen our vows by doing it in some Las Vegas casino, this place offered the type of midsummer night's dream atmosphere I've always envisioned. The location is about 20 minutes away from the strip and the ceremony and reception site are right next to each other by a lake. The ceremony site was an intimate little garden down a hill. There is an archway that you walk under as you go down towards the lake to take your vows. It is very enchanting with all the green foliage surrounding you and does wonders for blocking out that Vegas heat. The reception banquet hall, which was just a short walk away from the ceremony site, included a large hallway and dining room area. I'd say the place has a french nouveau feel to it from the orientate golden framed mirrors to the lighted tree in the middle of the dining room. Besides having all those little details that were so unique, what I loved most was that this was an all-inclusive deal!!! It included the ceremony & reception site, photography, florist, catering, d.j., limo, cake, and a wedding coordinator! Our wedding coordinator Felecia Bulliner was absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend her! She is so energetic and an inventive woman who will help your vision come to life. You can tell she has plenty of experience in wedding planning just with her touches of detail and how smoothly everything went. We can't imagine our day would have turned out as perfect as it did if we would've coordinate it all by ourselves. I truly think this place is the way to go, all of their vendors are craftsman at what they do and there is a variety of choices Lakeside offers to make you're wedding dreams come true within your budget and without all the stress!

Amber Redding(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-04-2011 We used Lakeside for our wedding and reception in April. The venue was beautiful. We got married in the Heritage garden, under an arch overlooking the lake. Willow trees on both sides, swans in the lake, and even a hummingbird flittering around above our heads! Reception was inside their banquet hall, a room with floor-to-ceiling windows on one side that created a bright and sunny ambiance (we got married at noon, reception from 12:30-3:30). \rThe \"all-inclusive\" package made planning easier than we could have imagined. We didn't have to interview outside vendors or anything--it truly was a \"one-stop shop\" with everything onsite, and we were quite happy with all of the vendors. DJ, cake, photography, flowers, catering, wedding coordinator, everything was included in one price. The photography print package was not included, but the photographer's time spent at the wedding and reception was. There were small extras we paid for outside the base price, such as bouquets and boutonnieres for the wedding party (my bouquet and his bouttoniere were included), white chair covers with colored sash for the reception, etc. From research we did with other \"all-inclusive\" packages at other locations, the price we paid seemed pretty reasonable.\rCommunication was one of the only negatives of the whole experience with Lakeside. It was sometimes difficult to get ahold of our wedding coordinator, and she didn't return phone calls and emails as quickly or reliably as I would expect. But she was very attentive and very knowledgeable when we did talk and meet, and made everything very easy. \rOverall, we had a great experience at Lakeside and got tons of compliments from guests about how beautiful and well-coordinated everything was.
