“We simply could not have imagined a better venue: My wife and I had the most charming, relaxed, and gorgeous wedding on August 30, 2026, at Kingsville Lodge. We had clear, helpful communication with Sharyn throughout the weekend as well as leading up to the big day. The lodge was perfectly clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything you needed to feel at home. The venue's ample bedrooms made it so that the bridal party could all stay together, right there on site. I'm so thankful for the time we were able to spend there leading up to the ceremony. In addition to the many nearby attractions, the Lodge's lake, kayaks, hot tub, fireplace, and games facilitated the perfect relaxation before the big day. Sharyn also did our photography and was there as we prepared. The value of her calm demeanor and intimate knowledge of the facility simply cannot be underestimated. There were so many small things that popped up that she resolved. I know so many couples are flustered or even discouraged with the stresses of their big day, but we genuinely got to enjoy our wedding, thanks in no small part to Sharyn's excellence. Even when it started _raining_, the venue's ample resources and Sharyn's extensive preparations made adapting our plans easier than we could have ever imagined! The Lodge's decoration packages are aesthetic and chosen with excellent taste—we were very impressed. They have been curated with genuine passion for beauty. Chairs, tables, linens, decor, the wedding arch, and so much more were all available, easy to find, and flexible for whatever vision you might have in mind. There is also a book with pictures of how the decor has been used at the venue in the past, if you would like to browse what's been done before. I'm sure that no matter what kind of wedding you have in mind, there will be a package that suits you. ***1000/10***, we could not recommend the Kingsville Lodge highly enough.”
