Nicole at Lafayette Club was professional, organized, and so helpful throughout the entire planning process. We felt completely at ease knowing that she was there to oversee everything and the setting itself is so beautiful. We would absolutely recommend Nicole and her team at Lafayette Club to anyone.

We hosted my daughter's wedding reception at the Lafayette Club in July 2017 and couldn't have been happier with the event. The staff was amazing, from Brenda who originally met with us, to the last waitstaff at cleanup time. You simply cannot beat this venue for sheer beauty and location. It sits on what must be the most coveted piece of land in the entire state of Minnesota, with sweeping views of Lake Minnetonka. The ballroom's crystal chandeliers are breathtaking, as is its barrel-vaulted ceiling. The Lakeview Room, where we had the cocktail hour, was spacious and light. We set up the photo booth there and a friend played their grand piano. From the Lakeview Room you can walk out to their raised patio which overlooks the lake and golf course. We rented some awesome outdoor patio furniture and set up two "living room" areas on the patio, along with a bean bag game. Guests could smoke cigars and relax with cocktails when they got tired of dancing! The food, unlike many venues, is cooked while the guests are eating the salad course. It's not precooked and warmed up. Many people raved that it was the best reception food ever! The only problem I had was that we were unable to secure hotel rooms for our guests as another member had pre-booked them for her event. But J
ody very graciously gave us one suite that the newlyweds were able to use before leaving on their honeymoon the next day. It was incredible, so don't miss out like we did - book those rooms early!! All in all, we loved the Lafayette Club...so much so that we joined right after the wedding! We have attended weddings at many other beautiful locations, from the St. Paul Hotel to Bearpath to Woodhill to Interlachen, and NONE of them can hold a candle to Lafayette. Our guests are still raving about the food, the room, the decorations, everything. Wait, I have one more complaint: wish we could have extended the night an extra hour or two. ;) If you want to WOW your guests, this is the place for you!!

What an incredible experience!! Not only is Lafayette Club BEAUTIFUL, but they are great to work with through the entire planning process. Brenda was amazing to work with! She always responded immediately with any questions we had and she is very knowledgeable about the wedding industry. I only have great things to say about Lafayette Club! The service was amazing and the food was delicious! We are SO happy we had our wedding at Lafayette. Highly recommend!
