Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Lake Shore Country Club, Erie

A wedding at Lake Shore Country Club comes with Lake Erie in the picture. The North Lawn, with woods around it and the lake beyond, is where the club holds outdoor ceremonies, and its flat ground makes rows of chairs and a straight aisle easy. That mix of trees, open lawn and water gives your wedding photos and video a setting that feels far from town, even though you are only minutes from the rest of Erie.

You can keep the whole day here: an outdoor wedding ceremony or even a reception on the North Lawn, then dinner indoors. The Renaissance Grand Ballroom holds up to 300 guests and can be divided into three smaller rooms for a more intimate wedding reception. It has its own bar room and lounge attached, and a large window that looks out on a private garden patio with outdoor seating, a pretty spot for cocktail hour and a few candid pictures. For a smaller gathering, the Green View Room seats 40, with two working fireplaces and a view of the 18th green, which suits a bridal shower or rehearsal dinner.

The catering director and executive chef work with you on custom menus, wine and linens. For your wedding videographer, the attached bar and lounge keep the noise of cocktail hour away from the ballroom during the toasts, and the lawn is lovely for a slow processional when the weather cooperates.

• Call the catering department to check your date and talk through the North Lawn and the ballroom.
• Have a rain plan for an outdoor ceremony on your wedding day.
• Walk the lawn with your photographer, and ask about photo and video guidelines.

A little about Lake Shore Country Club

Lake Shore Country Club was established in 1929 as a private golf club. It has since grown into a family club with an 18-hole course, a lakeside swimming pool and tennis courts, all overlooking Lake Erie.
