Greg and I couldn’t be happier with the venue or the service that the Lake House Reception Center provided! We had recently been to another couple’s wedding at a popular venue in Baton Rouge. The food was terrible, the cake was terrible and the over all coordination of the wedding was lacking. Lauren guided me through every step and calmed my nerves about all my concerns. Lauren and her team were top notch!! We even caught a picture of her smiling while she was videoing our first day. Thank you so much for making our day even more special than we could imagine!
