The Perfect Day
Rush Lake Memories, LLC was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. Mike, Amy, and the entire Heater family were incredibly professional and accommodating throughout the entire process. The beautiful landscape, clean facilities, and stunning ceremony setting exceeded our expectations. The Heater family went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of during the preparation, rehearsal, and on the wedding day itself. They were present and available to meet any and every need we had. If you are searching for the ideal wedding venue, look no further than Rush Lake Memories - they will make your dream day a reality.

A Dream Come True
We got married at Rush Lake Memories this June and we had a wonderful experience! The staff were super friendly and willing to answer all of our questions. They were super accommodating of our needs and flexible to ensure we had the best experience possible. Throughout the entire process, Rush Lake Memories had great communication with us! The day of our wedding, the event space was extremely clean and well organized. The Bridal and Groom suites were really nice to get ready in, and everyone was so welcoming! The venue is absolutely beautiful, and having a beautiful ceremony space in the same location as the reception was really convenient for us and everyone who attended. If you are considering this venue, I highly recommend contacting Rush Lake Memories! We are so grateful for all that they did to contribute to our special day!

We got married here yesterday- when I tell you it was the most beautiful night I mean it. This venue is gorgeous. The owners were extremely helpful throughout the process, Mike and his daughter Amy were amazing. You can tell they have thought of it all- lights in the parking area, EXTREMELY clean bathrooms, air conditioned bride and groom trailers, the most beautiful aisle I have seen, a separate area for food with more than enough storage and space, plenty of rehearsal time and set up. The whole night people kept saying “this is the most beautiful venue I’ve been to!”. Thank you to the Rush Lake Memories team for making our special day so much more memorable.

Rush Lake Memories gave us the wedding day we’d always dreamed of—and so much more. From the moment we arrived, the property felt peaceful, beautiful, and genuinely special. The views, the layout, and the atmosphere create the perfect backdrop for a celebration, but what truly sets this venue apart are the people behind it. Mike and Amy are absolutely amazing. Their kindness, professionalism, and passion for what they do shine through in every detail. They were supportive, responsive, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire process. You can feel how much they care about every couple’s experience. On the day of our wedding, they were organized, reassuring, and genuinely invested in making everything run smoothly. Because of them, we felt relaxed and fully present in the moment. Our guests were blown away by the setting, and we were blown away by the care and dedication that went into making our day perfect. If you want a venue that is breathtaking, stress-free, and hosted by two of the most wonderful people you’ll ever meet, Rush Lake Memories is the place. Mike and Amy helped make our wedding unforgettable, and we are forever grateful. Highly recommended—five stars aren’t enough! ✨💍
