    I owe them everything!

    There is nothing about my wedding that I would change and that’s because of Natalie. From her quick thinking, to her creative mind and knowing what will look best where. My journey from not knowing anything about weddings and planning my own has been long and treacherous, but i wouldn’t change a thing. From the moment I signed my contract Natalie was there for any question, concern and wonder I had about any topic. My night went smoothly and it was magical thanks to her and the team. I did not have to decorate much, since the Allure alone is a beautiful historical hidden gem, but the staff and the feature of having the ceremony, cocktail hour & reception with catering & an on-site organizer worth the money. I will be telling brides, even if I don’t know them about the allure!

    Classic, Timeless Venue

    Natalie, Erin, Michelle, and the staff at The Allure truly know how to create wedding magic. My husband and I had our wedding there this past weekend and could not have been happier. From the moment we signed on with The Allure, the team there has been very helpful and communicative throughout the planning process, even when they were dealing with the horrible tragedy of the Chesterton fire. They were so gracious in allowing us to set up several days beforehand, leaving everyone (especially me) feeling stress-free come the morning of our wedding. The day-of flowed so smoothly thanks to these marvelous ladies and their team; I knew they had everything taken care of, leaving me and my husband to truly enjoy the day and our guests. If great customer care isn't enough, the venue is breathtaking. Few other venues will compare to the timeless class The Allure provides. If this isn't enough to convince you that The Allure should be your wedding venue, just give it a look! I'm sure you'll be as blown away as we were.

    From ashes to magic

    The Allure + Allure on the lake was such a wonderful (although unexpectedly shocking) wedding experience! We originally booked to have our wedding at the Allure on the Lake on 6.8.19. We woke to a flood of news that the venue had sadly burned down the morning of 6.3.19. Natalie, Troy, and all of the staff at the Allure worked so hard to help us find another venue with only 5 days before our wedding. We were able to move to The Allure and had such a magical day. Natalie became like family to me after all of the planning we did together over 20 months. I cherish the friendships I made and the memories will last a lifetime! I highly recommend this venue for your dream day!

Absolutely love this venue, when you are on the outside of the building you would never guess how beautiful it is on the inside. I done know which I line better, the ceremony area or the amazing ballroom. I have done numerous weddings here and everyone that works there are so very friendly and helpful. I have also had the opportunity to dine with them as well and the food was delicious. I would highly recommend The Allure for your very special day.
