Esplanade Lakes By Doubletree

PRO: Beautiful venue, absolutely stunning, but...CON: Venue underwent construction that completely blocked the view of the lakes from the cocktail area. There was fabric paneling everywhere. Construction workers around during set-up. No mention of compensation was mentioned; we were only told to contact corporate.

The Esplande Lakes ballroom is an incredible gem we were so happy to use the space for our wedding. Our guests are still raving at how beautiful the venue was. The ballroom is unique with its circular shape (making every guest feel like they had a great seat and walls of windows overlooking the spectacular outdoor space. We got married in the fall and did all of our wedding portraits along the garden path the wall of hanging vines, the pond (with swans! and forest made every shot special. On top of this, our coordinator from the venue, Sinisa, was absolutely splendid. He is incredibly professional with a warm and calming presence that instills confidence in every step and he has the executional prowess to back it up. We had a number of vendors and family that helped us put on our wedding day and Sinisa and team flawlessly ensured that everyone had what they needed when they needed it. In addition to this we also got the catering and alcohol through the venue. We had a Greek and Italian wedding so food was super important and the Esplanade team really did an amazing job. The food was high quality and they managed to achieve a staggering level of consistency we heard from numerous guests how great their meal was. The entire team at the Esplande and Doubletree were so kind, accommodating and professional and we could not be more thankful that they were a part of our wedding day. I would highly recommend this venue, the hotel, the restaurant, Sinisa and his team!

The fact that this is associated with their outdated hotel next door blows my mind; however, I try to give honest reviews based on my experiences.This was the venue of choice for a wedding I attended recently, and it was beautiful. Don’t let this corporate location fool you. The wedding felt discreet and away from the public eye, and it was a joyous occasion to celebrate with friends and family.

I absolutely adore this venue for weddings. It's perfect for reception dinners, wedding ceremonies, and photography.

The wedding had a private atmosphere, making it feel like a special event away from the crowd. It was a wonderful celebration with friends and family.
