    Lake Affect was the perfect venue for our wedding in May 2025! It was our first and last venue we looked at. First, they only do 1 wedding/event a weekend - which made us feel prioritized and we didn’t have to rush to set up. The space is so cool and you can make it your own style. We got so many compliments of the space and how great it looked. The prices are BEYOND fair - plus the bar service is in house and we had to choose a caterer from their list; we loved that because it was less looking around. They are constantly updating the space to make it better and updated. Stefanie was absolutely fantastic and answered all my questions and was always so prompt! If you’re looking for a space to make your own, Lake Affect is an absolute hidden gem.

    Lake Affect Studios was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was easy, fast, and comforting. They were there for us every step of the way, guiding us through things we never would have thought of on our own. The quality of their work and the value they provided was exceptional - the venue was beautiful, they were incredibly accommodating, and the overall experience was of the highest quality. This venue provides an almost blank slate for your vision, yet it stands on its own as a stunning backdrop. It's clear that the team at Lake Affect Studios are true veterans in the wedding industry and they provide everything you could need in a venue. We are so grateful for their expertise and support in making our special day perfect.

    My wife and I couldn't have been happier with Lake Affect Studios. It's a second floor rustic loft space where you can really make it your own! Stefanie was amazing to work with. Friendly, professional, and flexible with our last second counts. Really don't have anything bad to say!

    We had the most amazing experience having our wedding reception at Lake Affect. The venue was so warm and inviting, and all of our guests had nothing but nice things to say. We had the pleasure of working with Stephanie from the very beginning, and we are so thankful for all of her hard work and kindness as we navigated wedding planning. All of the lake affect staff were fantastic. Very organized, energetic, kind, and helpful. Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding day so perfect:)
