Two stars go to the absolute gorgeous venue they have to offer.While they offer all inclusive packages everything had to be done seperately which I was fine with as they gave my preferred venues they worked with on every wedding. However I wish I would’ve done my research as the vendors they work with were no wear worth using. Most notable to stay away from is Kathie’s Kreations and Walt as a day of coordinator.The couple that owns the place were pleasant enough but rushed me in and out of my reversal dinner as well as in and out the day of my ceremony. Felt very unwelcome. They also made rude remarks to my bridal party as we were leaving.Also to note while I understand Florida gets hot as I’ve lived here my entire life. The wife drove around day of my wedding in a sports bra and shorts cleaning up and doing chores. Was not a pleasant look for my guests.Again, venue was gorgeous and everything I wanted but I feel brides and grooms can do better.

The Venue by the Lake was amazing! There staff helped with so much with anything and everything that you can think of. It rained on my wedding day so we could not have the wedding by the lake. However, they had everything moved to an area that we could have the wedding quickly so we didn't need to worry. I would recommend them to all brides!
