My husband and I got married here June 1st this year and would highly recommend the Lake Nepessing Boat Club to any couple looking for a wedding venue. Absolutely beautiful setting both inside and out. If you haven’t been here in the past 3 years, check it out.The new owners, Justin and Tracy, have updated the venue and it is beautiful. They also go above and beyond to make the venue exactly what you envision for the day of. All of our vendors had nothing but good things to say about how accessible the building is to bring in and take out any equipment. They offer the option to book it for the entire weekend (highly recommend) which allowed us enough time the day before and after to set up and tear down without feeling rushed on our wedding day. Perfect venue for a lakefront wedding.

Their communication style put us at ease and made us feel like their top priority. The quality of their work and the value they provided was unmatched - their space is clean, spacious, and highly customizable, allowing us to bring our wedding vision to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
My Husband and I visited 5 venues and fell in love with not only the Holly Vault but also Alisa and her team. We fell in love with the unique space and felt that it was the perfect space for us. We loved that the venue offered and/or included: linens, tables, chairs, silverware, plates, catering, drinks, coordinator, getting ready space, and ceremony options. Alisa is the best of the best and thought about every detail that I would never have thought about. She made our day memorable and seamless from start to finish. We were truly able to live in the moment and didn’t have to worry about getting drinks, missing our desserts or appetizers because they were placed at our table throughout the night. Alisa was so easy to work with and her communication was clear and fast. If I had a question I would just either email or text her and would get response within 24 hours. I was completely confident in the team and they made wedding planning easy and my wedding day seamless. Out of all the venues we visited and all teams we have met, the Holly Vault collection is truly the best venue and the team is the best of the best. I wish I could relive my wedding day all over again because of this team and venue!

The staff at Waldenwoods Resort & Conference Center responded to every question, comment, and request very promptly, at least within 48 hours. I preferred email over phone calls so I could keep track of our conversations, and they fully delivered for our wedding day. They not only answered questions and requests, but I also had full confidence they would execute everything flawlessly. The Sunshine Cove was drop-dead gorgeous and an absolute steal of a price. It could not have been more magical for my husband and I. It was everything in my Pinterest board and more! You could not have gotten a more perfect outdoor, lake wedding style for the price they offer. We added drapery that enhanced the magical experience but it could also do without it. The lake was stunning and I can't even believe how beautiful the sunset looked across the lake. The nearby photo backdrops were also stunning! whichever direction you faced, the backdrop was amazing. We were in one location but the photos felt like we were in 10 different locations which brought different experiences in the photos. The staff at Waldenwoods was truly helpful on the day of our wedding. They made us our own plates and got us drinks so we didn't have to go through the buffet. Before the ceremony, they hid me away as the bride so no one would see me before the walk down the aisle. They got me a chair and kept me hydrated in the reception area. They were so thoughtful and really cared about my experience as a bride! I highly recommend Waldenwoods Resort for a stress-free wedding day. They think of everything and will do what they can to help you or give you confidence for your special day. S/O Jaiden for our gorgeous photos - insta: japhotographytn

Got married here 5/11/24, the staff was very attentive, food was amazing, and the mansion was so beautiful. The 2 hours before the ceremony were chaotic since rain was on and off and we were unsure if an outdoor ceremony would happen or not. 10 minutes before the ceremony started staff ran out wiped all the chairs, and were able to make it happen! Received tons of compliments on the beauty of the venue, and how delicious the food was. 4/5 stars just because at the end of the night we were pushed out faster than our allowed 30minutes, the manager was literally locking doors as people were walking out of them, and we got a couple complaints about the bar staff. Besides that it was all amazing

I’ve put off writing this review because I didn’t want to do a disservice to the Treasury. To start, the venue is stunning, it made planning so easy for a bride like me who had no idea where to start for decor. The thing that you can’t see in pictures is how incredible the staff is. They were super communicative throughout the entire process. Any questions I had, they would answer within a day or two of me reaching out. They were proactive when a deadline came up, sending a heads up message a few weeks before so even if I had forgotten, I had time to get everything together. Finally, I did not expect their attentiveness on the actual day of our wedding but Hayley and Josh helped make us feel so special the whole day. The discord on wedding Facebook and TikTok is that the venue coordinator is there for the venue and to not expect them to help out day of except for anything venue related. That was not my experience at all, for example, I got sucked into talking to guests while dinner was being served and yet almost an hour after everyone ate, Josh arranged my husbands and my dinner in the private room, and it was freshly cooked and still hot. My wedding day was one of my best days so far, and so much of that can be attributed to the Treasury.
