⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Morningside Inn is absolutely gorgeous! My husband and I started our love story by visiting beautiful lakes, so having such a breathtaking lake view made our wedding feel extra special. The landscape was picture-perfect and made for stunning photos.

The food was delicious with a great variety, and their all-inclusive service made planning so easy. Lesli, our planner, was super organized, nice, and always quick to respond.

On the wedding day, the coordinators and staff were amazing—they handled all the decorations and set everything up even better than I imagined. I didn’t have to worry about a thing, and they packed everything up so quickly afterward.

Thanks to Morningside Inn, we had the wedding of our dreams. The pricing was fair and the service was exceptional. Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend this venue highly enough. As a PhD candidate, I truly could not handle wedding planning stress, and because of this, It took us 6 months to find a venue that was accessible, in our price range, beautiful and all inclusive. Morningside inn had that and more. When they say you just need to show up on your wedding day, they were absolutely right. They handled everything and Jessica and her team made it run perfectly. I even noticed during dinner that an heirloom bracelet had fallen off and before I had the chance to panic, she said I got it don’t worry and found it before dinner was over. They even allowed us to use extra bubbles they had because we didn’t plan a send off. I’m eternally grateful for the Morningside Inn team, specifically Leslie for answering all my panic texts prior to the event, and Jessica during the day of for pulling off the wedding of my dreams. Thank you so much!
