    Our August once in a blue moon wedding

    We had found this venue on line. We went to see it and loved it from day one. The owner Patty and her husband are so sweet. Her cordnator Michelle is wonderful also. She has a tuff job making sure everything and everyone is on track. The venue is a country barn at the lake. Everything went great for our special day. It was so hot but still turned out wonderful. All of our guests talked about how beautiful the place was. Wished I had this venue on our property. Thanks to the Carvers for everything.

    Truly beyond AWESOME

    Wonderful. Not only was the venue beyond mt expectations but Patty helped pull all the loose in together, and just made the wedding so spectacular. It was as if every detail have been considered. I have already started praising this place to the people I know.

    Loved Carver Lake Venue!

    We are so honored that we could get married at Carver Lake Venue. We were a very DIY wedding, and the Carver Lake team was very supportive, and informative throughout the whole process. We appreciated how transparent they were with us, and allowed us to use our creativity as well. On the wedding day, they were so helpful! We had a rainy day for our wedding, and they were supportive and helpful to make sure our wedding was still beautiful!

    Exceptional!!

    My family had a wonderful experience! I have read over a few reviews talking about the owners being there, the different rules, etc. The owners are very transparent and upfront about their requirements before a contract is ever signed. There were no "surprises". Patty calls, texts or emails back either right away or within a decent amount of time. The cost of the venue, for what is included, is very competitive if not better than other venders we visited who didn't offer the amenities Carver Lake did. Thank you all for making our daughter's wedding day perfect and completely dreamy!! Highly, highly recommended!!

    Carver Lake

    As soon as we booked with Carver Lake for our wedding a month ago, we knew we made the right choice! The barn and all of the land is so gorgeous and made for beautiful pictures. Patty was an absolute joy to work with and was always more than willing to accommodate us and help out wherever she could. I would highly highly recommend Carver Lake to anyone that is working with a rather small budget but still wants a beautiful wedding!

    Carver Lake Venue is the perfect place to get married. The Barn and beautiful landscaping provide many photo ops for your special day. The owners are a pleasure to work with and are willing to help any way they can.

    I have had the pleasure of working at the Carver Lake Venue as a Wedding Day Coordinator. My experience with Patty and Tommy have been great. They were very gracious in showing me around the property and listening to what the bride and groom wanted for their special day. This venue is beautiful and will sure meet the needs of any event held there. Patty was available and accommodating to my needs as a coordinator. I will definitely suggest Carver Lake Venue.

    Really beautiful but a bit unprofessional.

    The venue was beautiful and we love it so much! My only exasperation is that the owner brought another couple in during my rehearsal without even notifying us.

    Nieces Wedding

    Patty was a joy the venue was beautiful but several guest mentioned how strange it was for her to sit outside the entire time and watch the wedding and eat our paid for food. Seemed a bit unprofessional. This is definitely not a place for more than 100 people. 130 were very crammed and tables do not seat 10 more like 8

    Ray/White Wedding

    Not enough room for 200 people. No more than 100 for guest comfort. Unlevel ground not conducive for elderly, handicapped and children. Pretty setting.

    Just a Few Items to Make Note of.....

    Beautiful setting for those getting married. Especially earlier in the day and with a small to medium guest list. Definitely does not seat 200 people. We were able to fit (tightly) 130 guests.

    Be mindful of the hours in the contract- No Candles, No using nails/command strips won't hold...can use thumb tacks IF you can get them into the wood. No Alcohol after 9PM, No Music after 10PM and must be packed and vacated premises by 11PM. Which doesn't sound so bad unless you're having a 5PM wedding, the time goes back very quickly. And if you don't mind the owners being there and blowing out your candles 2.5-3 hours prior to end of the evening.

    Great for day time weddings of 100 or less guests!
