A day never to forget

We had our wedding at inn on the lake on 3rd August 2024. We went for the lakeside package. This included so much, Including a room for the bride and bridal party the night before and for the bride and groom the night of the wedding, there dj, table centrepieces, toast master and so much more. This for us was great as it means we didn't have to worry about to much. We had a fantastic day, the room was set up so beautiful with our colour of choice. The weather was perfect so we was able to get married outside. We have some fantastic pictures of us overlooking the lake. The dj was brilliant and did really well to play our list of music we wanted. We had serval meetings before the wedding so they good get an idea of how we wanted it. As every wedding is different. I would highly recommend inn on the lake to anyone getting marred. Eszter did an amazing job at making our day a day to remember.

Our perfect wedding day!

We found this venue by complete accident, but the moment we viewed it and met Natalie we knew we wanted to get married there! We got married outside next to the lake and wow the scenery was completely beautiful, beyond perfect, the room where we had our wedding breakfast had beautiful draping which looked stunning! The food was unreal, highly recommend the steak which I could have cut with a spoon, I had multiple guests coming up to me complimenting the food! It was just the most perfect all rounded venue! Natalie and her team couldn’t do enough for us, any problem was sorted quickly and no ask was too much! I will forever recommend this venue to everyone! It was an amazing day!

Dear Inn on the Lake team, I just wanted to say a massive thank you to all the team who helped make my nieces wedding such a wonderful event. Everything was seamless and served promptly, professionally and with a smile. It is quite possibly the best wedding I have ever attended, and that is down to the lovely people in all areas; reception, bar, restaurant, housekeeping, banqueting. A special mention to Lesley for her wonderful guidance throughout the celebration, she knitted everything together

Mr & Mrs Seccombe

If I could give more stars I would! ✨ We fell in love with the inn on the lake before we had even gone to the open day and after going that was the icing on the cake! The grounds and the lake are breathtaking and we knew this was where we was going to get married! Natalie and Eszter have been absolutely amazing the entire process and have made it such a lovely and enjoyable planning process. Our day was just perfection I couldn’t fault a single thing. All the recommended suppliers were amazing! We have had nothing but compliments about the food from everyone! It truly was the most amazing day and I wish I could re live it all again! Thank you so much to the inn on the lake for making our wedding dreams come true! 🤍💍

Best day Ever! Mr & Mrs Saunders

We can't thank Natalie & all the staff at Inn on The Lake enough for giving us the most amazing wedding day, Everything was just beyond perfect from start to finish & if we could live the day again we honestly wouldn't change a single thing. The lakes, woods & jetty provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. We would like to give praise to the chef who created the perfect wedding breakfast. The DJ topped a great day off with the perfect set that had nearly everybody up dancing.

Response from the venue

Thank you very much for your wonderful feedback. It means a great deal to us, and we wish you both all the happiness in the world together.

Just a quick thank you

Just a quick thank you to you both for all the hard work you both put into our wedding day. You really made this a special day not only for Hazel and myself, but for all our guests, everyone of them expressed how much they enjoyed the day and how all the staff there on the day contributed to a 1st class event. We cannot thank you enough for a 1st class organisation that you provided for us, especially bearing in mind that this took over 2 years to eventually happen.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Inn On The Lake?

A wedding back in 2019 was like being at a 90s dance festival! We had Ultra 90s (band) creating an insane rave with glowsticks, glitter face painting, a spectacular lightshow and a packed dancefloor. Outside was a BBQ, an ice cream cab and a caravan photo booth. The fireworks later that night were incredible.
