About our venue

Sugar Lake is a family owned 135-acre estate nestled in a picturesque Painesville, Ohio. The property is adorned with three magnificent outdoor ceremony spaces, each framed by the beauty of nature, making each vow exchange as intimate as it is breathtaking.

For those preferring an indoor setting, we offer a tastefully designed indoor space, setting the stage for an elegant ceremony.

Post-ceremony, couples and their guests can meander to our generously tented reception area or opt for the indoor reception space, both equally prepped to host a memorable celebration.

Perfectly located

Located just 40 minutes east of Cleveland up I-90, Sugar Lake is surrounded by Northeast Ohio's beautiful nature and is positioned between over 1,000 acres of Metroparks.

Our vibrant, beautifully maintained estate serves as a dreamy canvas for your wedding day, offering picture-perfect moments at every turn.

Our team of experienced planners are passionate about turning your dream wedding into a reality. Whether you prefer rustic or chic, boho or modern, we have the decor and the team to bring your vision to life.

Our day was perfect!

We had an absolutely fabulous experience! The venue was beautiful and exactly what we were looking for and Nadine was such a fantastic help during the whole process and made everything so easy! She walked us through everything and made sure to go over all of the details, was always responsive and quick to reply to any questions I reached out with, and she perfectly captured the vision I had for decorations and honestly made it look even better than I expected! 10/10 recommend!

This truly was my dream wedding!

My husband and I got married here and couldn't be happier. We fell in love with Sugar Lake Lodge the moment we saw it online, and confirmed it with an in person tour. It is absolutely GORGEOUS! And even better than the looks was the staff. Steve and Nadine were just the best people to work with. They truly made our dreams come true without adding a whole lot of work or stress on our parts. They are professional, sweet as can be, generous, and very accommodating.

Would do it all over again!

My now husband and I got married at Sugar Lake Lodge this past August. The day couldn't have been any more perfect! We were married under the beautiful oak tree near the water. Steve and Nadine were such a pleasure to work with, and so accommodating! The property itself really is stunning, and so comforting.  Being able to have both our ceremony and reception there was so wonderful, and they helped fill in the details along the way. 10/10 recommend.

The prefect place to get married

My wife and I tied the knot at this incredible venue earlier this month. Our ceremony was held out by the lake. There's a large oak tree that provided shade for the wedding party. We had our reception in the lodge itself which is a short walk from the lake. There was ample space for the wedding party to get ready. Nadine coordinated the wedding up to and on the big day. She went above and beyond, tailoring every little detail to our particular taste. She was so reassuring and helpful. We couldn't have done it without her!
