We had our reception at Oak Lodge in the Reception Center room for 115 people. All in all our total experience with the Oak Lodge was absolutely fantastic. THE ROOM: The room is beautiful with lots of wood and brick that gave it a very warm, inviting feeling. The set up works great. They have a stand alone dance floor in the middle that is the perfect size. I think this made everyone comfortable and we did not have to encourage anyone to dance... they were all out there before we were! This room is great if you want a more relaxed, warm environment, but still want the very nice looking reception. THE FOOD: The food was AMAZING! And they have so much of it! I got so many compliments on the food and they give you tons of leftovers that my friends and family ate for the whole week after. THE STAFF: I cannot say enough about the staff at the Oak Lodge. They are so quick to respond to you and always friendly and professional. Everyone has such a helpful and great personality. Our event coordinator met with us several times for as long as we needed to make sure that we had all the details worked out. And if we didn't think of all the little details, they did. They take care of literally everything for you. Very easy to work with.

We had our reception here at Oak Lodge, and I can't say enough about the helpful staff. Even though the girl we initially booked with no longer worked there at the time of our wedding, we had about three contact people who took over and did a spectacular job.I had very specific ideas for the decor of the reception, and brought in about 10 boxes of decor the week before the wedding. Oak Lodge set up all of my decorations, including chair ties (which did add $100 to the bill).During the wedding itself, they were very attentive, made sure we got food and drinks, and kept the reception flowing smoothly. After the wedding, they picked up and boxed up everything we had brought for decorations, and my mom got to pick it up a few days later! They could not have made things any easier on my family, and I am so grateful for that!We were very pleased, and highly recommend them.

I could not have been happier! Josh and I looked everywhere for exactly what we wanted and for a reasonable price. When we met with Oak Lodge they were incrediably nice and open to everything we needed and wanted. We only had the reception and had the ceremony at my church. The food was amazing! And nothing short of it. My family and friends are still talking about it 4 months later. I sadly became sick at my reception and the second the coordinator found out she was at my side to see if i needed anything including medicine. (Luckily, I wasn't sick long and was able to get back to fun! ) The decorations were also beautiful. The flowers for the centerpeices fit perfectly with everything! And the plates that were fixed for both Josh and I hit the spot when we got back to the hotel. We had left over pasta that was sent home to my parents, along with the rest of the left overs. Some of bridal party went over to my parents the next day and enjoyed more food. And we had so much pasta some was placed in the freezer. Even reheated a month later.... the food was awesome!

Oak Lodge was wonderful to work with..I planned my wedding fast..on 3 weeks notice and they weren't the first place I looked. After 2 hard, stressful days of calling and setting appointments I ended up going over and the place sold itself! Beautiful..that is what it is..and they were so wonderful to work with. Although my wedding and reception were small by most standards (planned on 80) all of my guests (had 76 show up) had a wonderful time. My mom is still getting calls from relatives that the food was really rich and good. Bryan and I ate on the way to the airport and really were glad to have that huge bag they made for us..they even put fresh rose petals and chocolate dipped strawberries in a container with a nice thank you note. I will always remember my outdoor wedding by candlelight at Oak Lodge!

Oak Lodge was absolutely beautiful. It was the perfect place for a fall wedding. You had many choices for a menu. I ended up picking the perfect combination and people are still raving about how good the food was. The food is also unlimited, literally. We had so much food afterwards we had to give the majority of it away! They decorate for you according to your color scheme so that was very nice. Overall it was a wonderful experience.
