    We had our August wedding at The DeKoven Center and it was absolutely magical with the flowers blooming everywhere! The venue manager, Nicole, was so helpful throughout the entire planning process. She was very quick to respond to our questions and we sat down about a month before the big day to finalize all the details. Nicole made sure everything was perfect. The venue itself is beyond gorgeous with the unique chapel; spacious Great Hall with high ceilings, string lights, and raised dance floor; lush gardens, and lake views. It was the ideal backdrop for our fairytale wedding. The venue is elegant yet whimsical and our guests wouldn’t stop talking about it! Their staff was fantastic as well, helping everything run smoothly day-of. I cannot recommend The DeKoven Center highly enough for couples wanting a romantic, one-of-a-kind wedding!
