    The Lodge itself and the grounds are beautiful! However, the event manager was very disorganized and rude at our walk-through a few weeks before the wedding. On my wedding day another staff member of The Lodge was there and contradicted everything we discussed at the walk-through. Although we kept them in loop throughout the process of creating the master timeline of the day, which stated that the last dance would be at 11:30pm, the staff memeber told my DJ to shut off the music at 11pm and would not let us have our last dance. It's a truly beautiful venue and it's a shame that the staff were difficult to work with and caused unnecessary stress on our wedding day.

  • KLM is a GREAT Venue

    We love working with the team at Katherine Legge Memorial Lodge. The venue is in a great location and is very easy to work at, especially with their full kitchen on-site. It's a beautiful venue for events of all kinds!
