Perfect &
I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! From start to finish, Oakwood made our wedding dreams come true. The event coordinators are amazing at what they do. They are prompt, knowledgeable and beyond helpful. We got married on the lakeside & had our reception by the Gazebo. The venue is breathtaking. The service is spectacular. My guests said it was the best wedding food they have every had. The bartenders made amazing drinks and people rarely had to wait. The night started and ended perfectly, I am beyond happy with my experience. If you are looking for a wedding venue in the IN area, this is it. No need to look further. You won’t regret it!!!!
