Calling all ladies who got married at Lake Natoma Inn
I have a friend that is getting married there in September. She asked if I had any recs for vendors so I thought I would see who you guys used...... Any info is much appreciated! I don't know what they provide and what they don't provide as a venue. So i don't know what recs specifically she needs. TIA!
Re: Calling all ladies who got married at Lake Natoma Inn
We got married at the LNI last year. When they have their tasting there they will have a bunch of vendors to meet with.
We used:
Botanica Floral Deisgn- Audrey Gardemeyer (she is great at stretching a budget)
DJ Sundance- Cannot say enough amazing things about him!!
Freeport Bakery
The Lake Natoma Inn was a great place to get married!
My brother and SIL got married there and I know they used a woman named Cheryl Porter for flowers...she has a business out of her house and the arrangments turned out AMAZING. She has an FB page if you want to search her "Cheryl Hamilton Porter".
DJ -- SJs Disc Jockey: Gregg did their wedding, and Joe did ours (a year earlier)
Photography -- Emily Heizer Photography (eheizerphotography.blogspot.com)
I didn't get married there, but I used the Flower Shop in Fair Oaks, and since they are "The Florist" of Mt. Vernon Mortuary they were a lot cheaper for weddings-And they were gorgeous!

Also, I used Tim Kennedy of Matrix Style DJ- Tim Kennedy. Prices were great and he was awesome.

Delta Limo for our Limos to/from the wedding-I even used them to shuttle people from the hotels.

We had our reception out there, but plenty of folks have had ceremonies there too.
We used G. Rossi Florist in downtown Sac.
I can't seem to find my photographer online anymore. (Which is weird, because he just did my BIL's wedding last year...) It was Enchanted Photos.
Our DJ was a friend of a friend.
Everything else we got there. (Chairs, linens, food, etc.) Bringing in your own wine and paying corkage can actually be cheaper if you do the Bev Mo Buy 1 Get 1 for 1 cent sale.
What room are they in?
One thing I do remember: if there are multiple events going on that day, parking SUCKS. My photographer was almost late to the reception. It was worst because we got married off property. But just be forewarned.
