We got married at The Shores on 06/06/2026 and we couldn’t be happier! Laurel and Warren were so great to work with, as well as Proz Lakeside- their catering company. The venue and location is so beautiful and our guests have not stopped raving about it! When we got engaged in March of 2025 this was the only place we wanted to get married at and we are so glad we did!
Our wedding day at The Shores was absolutely breathtaking! From the start, the staff made planning effortless, and Laurel, Warren, Louis, Brady, and their team were amazing to work with. The venue was clean, organized, and beautiful inside and out, with stunning lake views. It truly had everything we needed, making it the perfect choice for our area. The food was delicious with plenty of options, and the lodging was comfortable and convenient for all of our guests. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
