"Lake & Wood is such a beautiful property for a wedding day. The venue has so much character and offers a variety of stunning backdrops throughout the space that make the overall atmosphere feel incredibly unique and romantic."

Karissa
"The venue staff was easy to coordinate and regularly checked in, and we felt that all of the standard inclusions (tables, chairs, dance floor, etc.) were beautiful enough and didn't require us to purchase rentals! The weather was perfect for us, mid-October meant a cool 70's in the day and dropped to 60's in the evening but the heaters & dancing helped keep us warm."

Danielle
"Lake and Wood was beyond our expectations. This had been the first and only venue we toured during our venue search and we fell in love right away. It was serene, beautiful and was everything we were looking for. The staff were not only accommodating when we toured the venue, but also helpful with the list of vendors (many of which were the ones we then went forward with for the wedding itself)."

Kelsey
"What an absolute dream come true to have our wedding at lake and wood. The most beautiful magical day and wedding i have ever been too and it was MY OWN WEDDING. We had a very small intimate wedding of 25 people, and man was it perfect. Lake and wood and the whole crew was amazing to work with. I would not change a single thing about my wedding and lake and wood made that happen."

Say “I Do” Beside the Lake

Exchange vows beside the water with towering pines, open sky, and the lake creating a naturally beautiful backdrop. The private ceremony setting feels intimate and peaceful while giving your guests plenty of room to take in the landscape. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or celebrating with a larger group, the lakeside setting gives your ceremony a sense of place that carries throughout the rest of the day.

Start the Day on Property

The wedding day starts long before the ceremony. Our private His + Hers Airstreams give you and your wedding party dedicated spaces to get ready, relax, and settle into the day without ever leaving the property. They're practical, photogenic, and close enough to the action that you can enjoy the anticipation without feeling rushed.

Make the Reception Yours

Our white reception tent gives you a beautiful foundation without dictating the look of your celebration. Add soft lighting, layered tablescapes, florals, a mobile bar, lounge seating, or a dance floor to create a reception that feels entirely your own. With the lake and forest surrounding the space, the setting brings plenty of atmosphere before you add a single detail – mobile bar, outdoor dance floor, or cozy lounge area.

Beautiful Backdrop, All Around

You won't have to go far to find a beautiful place for wedding photos. Follow the water for reflections and sunset light, wander beneath the pines for something more intimate, or use the ceremony and reception spaces to capture the details that make the day yours. With the lake, forest, and open spaces all within the property, your gallery can feel as varied as the celebration itself.
