The Lakehouse by Saphire Event Group: A Coastal Gem That Feels Like Home
April 20, 2025As a wedding photographer, I get the chance to explore so many beautiful venues - and every once in a while, I walk into a space and immediately feel at ease. That was exactly the case with The Lakehouse by Saphire Event Group. It’s the kind of venue that welcomes you in with a quiet elegance and leaves you daydreaming about hosting your most meaningful day there.
From the moment you step inside, The Lakehouse wraps you up in its coastal charm. The space is bright, airy, and intentionally designed to feel both timeless and fresh. It’s neutral in the best way possible - think soft whites, natural textures, and clean lines - making it the perfect blank canvas for any wedding style. Whether you’re going for classic romance, modern minimalism, or something in between, this space elevates your vision without ever overpowering it.
Let’s talk about the bar, because wow - it’s one of my favorite parts of the venue. The setup is simple, yet incredibly inviting. It’s sleek and bright, making it a perfect backdrop for cocktail hour candids or guests mingling with signature drinks in hand. It’s that rare mix of stylish and understated, which is a dream from a photography standpoint.
And then there’s the bridal suite - a true little sanctuary. It’s coastal, it’s calm, it’s flooded with natural light… everything you’d want in a getting-ready space. The palette is soft and neutral, giving you the freedom to bring in your own style without competing with the surroundings. But more than anything, it just feels good to be in there. It’s a space that lets you breathe, soak in the moment, and feel fully present before all the magic begins.
What really stood out to me, though, was the staff. Every single person I interacted with - from the coordinators to the behind-the-scenes team - was so professional, kind, and genuinely welcoming. It’s easy to feel like just another vendor at some venues, but at The Lakehouse, I felt like part of the team. They were on top of every detail, while still keeping the vibe calm and positive all day long. That kind of energy makes such a difference not only for us vendors, but especially for couples and their families.
What I love most about venues like The Lakehouse is how they hold space for your story. The setting is naturally beautiful, but it doesn’t scream for attention. Instead, it highlights what matters most - the people, the emotion, the little moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours.
If you’re looking for a venue that feels polished yet personal, sophisticated yet warm, The Lakehouse might just be your perfect fit. And with Saphire Event Group behind the scenes, you know you’re in incredibly thoughtful hands every step of the way.
