About

On WeddingWire since 2011

Ardea Country Club (previously East Lake Woodlands Country Club) is a wedding and event venue located within the East Lake Woodlands neighborhood in Oldsmar, Florida. Accompanied by two golf courses with rolling greens and old Florida vibes, the Club is the perfect location to celebrate your special life events with friends and family.

The Club features three outdoor ceremony sites – the Oak Garden underneath a breathtaking mossy oak, the Lounge Terrace with unmatched views of the fairway, and the Front Drive porte cochère, where couples can say their vows in front of a white balustrade overlooking manicured grass.

Our indoor spaces boast 11,000 square feet of newly renovated event rooms, creating separation and intimacy for your guests. Host cocktail hour in the lounge with a private terrace and reception in the Woodlands Ballroom, which has a dance floor and seating for up to 175.

Interested in an intimate affair? Our Windows on the Green includes floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the putting green and can accommodate smaller groups of up to 75 for bridal/baby showers, rehearsal dinners, anniversaries, and more.

Full catering and bar services are available to include curated packages and custom menus built to accommodate your event needs. All bookings include tables, chairs, linens, small centerpieces, glassware, flatware, cake cutting, setup/breakdown, and parking. Optional upgrades include floor-length linens, Chiavari chairs, drapery, valet, and more.

Absolutely Amazing!

My (now) husband and I were looking for a small, intimate, and affordable venue for our big day. I met with Emma and she shows my MOH and I everything, was super detailed oriented and gave me SO many options. Leading up to the ‘big day’, Emma was always super responsive and made sure everything I wanted was notated and correct. Working with Emma felt like I was working with someone I’ve known for years. The day of comes! We couldn’t have had a better group of staff for our ceremony and reception.
Koni, the Banquet Manager made sure everything was perfect, constantly checked on us and went the extra mile. Johnathan, our Server for the night, made sure everyone got their correct order, checked on us and made sure everyone was happy with their meal. Shayla, our bartender was SOO sweet, everyone got to speak with her the most, she was SO kind and when we left for the night, she ran out of the venue and brought us our wedding sign, we almost forgot! We honestly couldn’t ask for a more perfect day, I am SO happy we chose to work with Emma and Ardea Country Club.

Wonderful Rehearsal Dinner/East Lake Woodlands Country Club, Oldsmar, FL

We had a wonderful wedding rehearsal dinner on Friday evening, August 21, 2020 for 65 attendees at East Lake Woodlands Country Club in Oldsmar, FL! Everything from the planning to the execution of the actual dinner was excellent! The food was wonderful, and we were able to have a tasting of the food to be served prior to the event and consult with the head chef! A special dietary request (gluten free) was made, and the attendee requiring this raved over the gluten free meal provided! The servers were all professional and attentive to our guests. Covid-19 precautions were taken from beginning to end, including table set up and other precautions (face masks, etc.). The venue was set up in advance so that we had plenty of time to decorate. The venue itself is lovely, and we were able to have music of our choice played. A special thank you to Hunter Beals, Private Events Director, who was involved every step of the way! She was responsive to all requests and present at the event to ensure everything went as planned! It was a pleasure working with her! We highly recommend East Lake Woodlands Country Club for your event!
