Lions Garden

We can not rave about Rene, Klaske and the entire staff of Lions Garden enough!! The level of professionalism is unmatched yet remains to be personable and approachable. We booked our wedding at the venue prior to covid, and originally had it planned for June 26th, 2021. However with everything so up in the air over the summer, we were faced with the decision of do we have a very small wedding of just immediate family or post pone. My now husband called Rene to move our wedding to 2022, 11 days before we set to be married, when they offered us a spot for July 3rd,2021 with out hesitation. They knew how important it was for us to have all our family and friends present since we moved away from our home town and rarely get to see everyone. The wedding day was absolutely perfect, not a single thing went wrong and if it did we did not know about it because Rene and Klaske are outstanding venue owners and diffused situations for us. As a bride the normal nerves set in once I put my dress on the bridal suite but Klaske was right there with a bottle of champagne in hand and open arms. From the time we got there to the time we left, we did not feel rushed or bombarded as they had everything under control. Almost forgot the mention, the property is a photographers dream, so many different locations and golden hour at the barn is breath taking. Unfortunately the washroom house was not up and running for our wedding, but future brides and grooms have that to look forward in the years coming!!Thank you again to Rene and Klakse for the countless phone calls/emails and last minute changes, we owe you guys the worldxoxoMr & Mrs McRobb

Originally my Daughters wedding was Aug 2020, then bumped to May 2021. Then constant changes in restrictions, cause even more change. Lions Garden was nothing but accommodating to us. Day of the ceremony, again the service we received was top notch. It is a beautiful venue run by caring compassionate, people who made us feel very special. We are now looking forward to the celebration/reception in 2022 there as well!Update, wedding celebration was last weekend and it was amazing. Fantastic venue, fantastic staff! Thank you

Our wedding was originally scheduled in September 2021. Due to the pandemic, we had to move it to July 2022. Klaske and Rene accomodated us very well and they were very considerate.The location was top notch. The rustic feel is legit! Their crew at wedding day was second to none. They were friendly, helpful and very organized! We got the kind of wedding that we wanted and and we are really thankful to them as they were a huge part of making that happen. I cannot ask for anything better in terms of dealing with a vendor.I hope I can attend a wedding at Lion's Barn in the future (as a guest of course lol). I am looking forward to that day and say Hi" to their dogs once again."

Me and my husband are so happy we chose to have our wedding at Lions Garden. They have a wonderful ceremony and reception area and even a place for the bridal party to get ready! The entire venue absolutely beautiful and René, Klaske and everyone else there are so kind and professional!! I highly recommend them to anyone having a wedding!!

Rene & Klaske the owners were great! They communicated well with us and the venue is nothing short of spectacular! We had a fantastic day, the atmosphere, photos and people were amazing. The pictures are breathtaking and well worth the trip out there! They do not have running water but it was easily planned around, the grounds are very well maintained! We only had a short time frame for set up the morning of the wedding but, many hands and preparations ahead of time made it go quickly. We fell in love with Lions Garden from the photos and could not have picked a better location for our wedding, we were so pleased at how well everything came together! The reception setting is a rustic barn and I've seen comments about the boards being uneven on the dance floor, which is true and why we came prepared with flip flops for our guests to wear during dancing. It was not an issue for us. Klaske was extremely helpful and gave rides on the Gator from the parking lot to the barn and from the barn to ceremony area when it was needed as well as giving the kids rides! People have also commented on the long walk from the parking lot to the Ceremony/Reception areas, it is not that far and adds to the character and charm of the experience out there! They are very accommodating so if this concerns you with some of your guests I suggest going to view it prior to booking. They do shut down by 12:30am and you need to have your decor taken down by 1am so they can clean, again if you prepare and have enough people this will not be an issue. We loved Lions Garden and would recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a rustic/romantic location. Thank you Rene & Klaske for making our day so wonderful!

I was here for a photos shoot. The owners Kleschka and Rene are such a treat. They are very professional and attentive. The space that they have created it there is fantastic and so beautiful. I honestly cannot describe how wonderful it is there.

Lions Garden is a must see wedding venue!!!! The moment I saw it I knew it was where I wanted to get married, and I got about a billion compliments about the venue at my wedding this past weekend. On top of being absolutely gorgeous, the venue owners are the friendliest most understanding and helpful people you could ever imagine. Planning my wedding was all over the place with Covid, and we even ended up changing dates at the very last minute!! Rene and Klaske were amazing to work with every step of the way and really went above and beyond for me. The staff they use for preparations and the bar are equally great and they made the wedding flow seamlessly. Thank you guys so much you’re the absolute best!!!!!

My husband and I just got married at Lion’s Garden this past Saturday (August 10th, 2019) and couldn’t be happier with how everything went. We chose to rent the venue for the additional hours on the Friday, as well as the Sunday for set up and take down. We definitely recommend choosing this option as it allows for stress-free set up and take down.From the first time we visited Lion’s Garden, it was extremely apparent how much pride Rene and Klaske take in everything they do and how they maintain their venue. Throughout the entire planning process, Rene and Klaske were very easy to get a hold of and always quick to get back to me with any answers that I needed.When we first started looking into booking this venue, we noticed they do have quite a few rules in the contract. However, we appreciated the clear expectations and it allowed us to plan accordingly ahead of time, and despite the rules they were more than accommodating in any areas we asked to adjust slightly. We also found that it is due to their high standards that their venue has been able to be kept nothing short of immaculate.Rene and Klaske were available during planning, set-up, the wedding itself, and takedown for any suggestions/recommendations, or support that we needed. We had a handful of guests with mobility issues, and Klaske was always right there ready to drive them wherever they needed to be in their side-by-side (Gator).We did want to take time to address some of the negative reviews we had read when we were choosing Lion’s Garden, because we had such an amazing experience and want people to have specific feedback regarding our experiences on the issues we had read about.1.We had read some reviews that claimed the owners presence was too much during set up, take down, and the wedding.Our Experience: we found this was absolutely not the case. We found it was the perfect amount of involvement. We would see them occasionally to check in if we needed anything but otherwise they left us to ourselves.2. The cleanliness of the porta-pottiesOur experience: The porta-potties were very clean, and were consistently maintained throughout the evening. The washcar we had rented for our wedding broke down half way through the night, causing an increase in the porta-potties being used, and still they were always clean and consistently checked throughout the night.3. There were some other concerns we had stemming from other reviews. We chose to discuss them directly with Rene and Klaske, and they were more than willing to discuss them with us, which left us feeling reassured that we had only read one side of the story. We encourage you to talk to these owners because it will leave you knowing only how much they love what they do, and how much they want to make your wedding day the most amazing experience.Overall we felt that our wedding could not have gone any better than it did, and would recommend this venue to anyone we know. We have already spent the week following our wedding wishing we could relive it over and over again! Throughout not only the day of our wedding but the days following, we have received continuous compliments from all our friends and family about how amazing our wedding was, and how incredibly beautiful of a venue it is.

Cannot recommend this place enough! My husband and I were originally considering just having our ceremony here. However, when we went to view this venue in person, we knew we had to have both the ceremony and reception here. Pictures honestly do not do this place justice, you have to see it in person to really get a feel for how amazing this place is. Our wedding day was absolutely amazing and we could not have found a better place. Everything went so smoothly and every aspect of this place is stunning. All our guests loved it and we continue to get compliments on how beautiful our wedding was. You will have endless places to take photos. We had a fall wedding and this place is just gorgeous in the fall, our photos are all so beautiful. Highly, highly recommend!!

As wedding photographers we really enjoyed working at Lions Garden. You have the option for an indoor or outdoor ceremony plus your reception can also be held there. We loved the chandeliers in the barn! It makes for one of a kind first dance photos.The owners are René & Klaske and they are so friendly to work with. Klaske even took the time to walk us around the property to show us his favourite spots. Highly recommend Lions Garden for your wedding venue.
