    BEST DAY EVER! Vista Lago Ballroom was the perfect venue for my wedding! If you're looking for an all-inclusive venue in Miami specifically West Kendall this is the place for you! The venue is stunning inside and out, the food was incredible, and the staff are so professional and some of the nicest people in the wedding industry! Great affordable prices for what was included! My husband and I had the best time ever and our guests said it was a wedding of a lifetime! Thank you to Raquel, Jose, and Shantel all your support through the planning/executing process!!!

    Our twin daughters sweet 16 was amazing. I can not give this business ten stars so five will have to do. To begin with, the professionalism shown as well as the attention to detail surpasses any expectation I may have had of good service. The food was ten stars. The cakes by Edda were ten stars. The flowers by Gladys Flowers were gorgeous and also deserve ten star. The staff was ten stars. This service was exemplary and I will definitely be calling them again. It has been my honor to work with the entire team. Raquel knew what we wanted before we even knew and she executed the plan with a sophisticated touch like no other. We could not be more pleased.

    Attended a wedding here on 11/22/19 . From a guest point of view: Good : *Venue was beautiful and it did not feel like I was in a ballroom setting. The interior is white with wooden floors and it serves as a perfect canvas for any event style. * I truly loved the set up for the reception by the lake. Bad: * This location was hard to find with all the construction happening in the area. * A few party-crasher from the ducks and of housefly during the reception. * For food, the bride chose the chicken and steak dinner - it was very to salty for me. The bread was extremely hard : /.

    I could not begin to say how many wonderful thingsmeet experienced during our family event at this facility. The location is beautiful, well maintained and it is impeccable. There I definitely a great deal of pride from the owners, not to the mention the personal attention and the service from the staff is remarkable. The catering options are very affordable and very tasty. The owner Racquel is extremely resourceful and is magnificent and a wizard with small children. Everything about this location is convenient, beautiful, and affordable. The design and layout lend itself for a very family oriented event to be highly successful and intimate yet class. It's a beautiful hall and we were so fortunate to find it. And prices aRe very affordable.

    Came here for a wedding.. very nice venue space perfect for weddings. Features indoor open space as well as a large patio that is on a lake with a nice view. The landscaping and space also seems to be well maintained.

    I am giving this place 1 star because it held the most magical day of my life. The location itself is beautiful, the building is clean, well maintained and the inside of the ballroom is gorgeous. The food is delicious and everyone loved it, the wait staff was only serving certain tables during cocktail hour. Our head tables didnt try the cocktail hour apps. Our wedding was rained out, so we had to improvise and have our ceremony inside. Thank god for our wedding planner because all the staff from this venue did was RUSH her... they didnt allow us to set up until 3PM and they didnt give us any staff to help set up because "you have your own wedding planner she can do it"... the day before the wedding I was being stressed about something I wanted last minute and instead of helping me they made it more stressful. To put the icing on the cake the owners never told us the lake was UNDER CONSTRUCTION. A big yellow bulldozer in the middle and a mountain of rocks would be the backdrop of our ceremony pictures, when everyone noticed including the photographers they told them "use photoshop" what kind of attitude is that? This venue only cares about MONEY... once you pay them they are done. Do not recommend im glad its over and we enjoyed our wedding day....

    This venue was overall everything I wanted! We wanted to have a little bit of the beach, feel without having to be outside for hours, and the inside is beautiful with the high ceilings. We booked this venue in February 2022 and the staff was very flexible with the number of guests and payments that had to be made leading up to November 11, 2023. as we got closer to the date, Shantal was very helpful in helping me finalize the final details and helping me book any other vendors that I needed. The last week before the wedding day my coordinator was in constant communication with the venue to ensure everything would be perfect and Racquel was amazing the day of. Racquel ensured that me and my now husband got hors d'oeuvres from happy hour as well as drinks, and she even went out of her way to take pictures of us on her phone, while the photographer was taking a few. I think that's a nice detail to mention, because at the end of the night I wanted to make sure I had some thing to see! Overall, I have nothing but good things to say about this venue, and I really recommend for anyone to book them and to have Shantal as your point person.

    We hosted our company Holiday Party at Vista Lago Ballroom and we had the most wonderful experience! Every member of the staff was helpful and kind. They went out of their way to make our night special and we cannot wait to celebrate there again!

    From the moment we met Raquel and Jose we knew we were in the right place! They took the time to explain every detail of what Vista Lago would offer us if we chose them for our wedding. Having previously been guests there at one of our best friend's wedding, we knew the quality was top notch. That helped us make the decision to book with them for our big day. Honestly, it's the best all-inclusive event location in Miami. What you get for what you pay is beyond what you would expect. In the 6 months between our booking and the wedding day, Raquel was available to answer every single question I had (which, when planning a wedding mid-pandemic ends up being many more questions than normal). She was patient and helpful every step of the way, always cheerful and friendly. On the day, they took care of EVERYTHING. Every single piece of decor, every detail, was arranged exactly how we had asked for it to be. As soon as our ceremony ended, we were asked what we wanted to drink, they made sure to have a plate with the food our guests were enjoying during the cocktail hour to make sure we didn't miss out, they bustled my dress, went over our music selections to make sure when we entered the reception the rest of the night would be just as perfect. The food is delicious! Several guests commented afterwards how much they loved it. The music was awesome...they listened to what we asked for and delivered 100% of it. We were so happy on our wedding day and love that we get to reminisce on how wonderful it was thanks to everyone at Vista Lago! Can't recommend it enough!

    Nice chandelier.

    This is our second time coming here for a Christmas holiday party for my wife's work. It's a beautiful view of the lake in the back. With a nice water fountain. Inside is nice. The food could be a little better but makes for a nice place to have a business party.

    Best Day and Wedding EvEr!!! Not saying that because it was our wedding, hehe. But Vista Lago and their entire crew were amazing. Everything came out exactly how I wanted it. So beautiful and fun. I can't wait for our 10 year anniversary to do it all over again!

    Ana S.

    What a terrific job. Vista Lago delivered across the board. José, Rachel, Leydis and Ceci are fantastic they really listened and followed through. No detail was left out. Rachel and Leydis worked the actual night of the event and were completely in control of all aspects of the night. We were the in town contact and coordinators for an out of town bride and groom. The vista Lago team made this pure joy. The food was great. The tasting was delicious but so was the food at the event. A mojito bar for a welcome drink at this casually elegant guayabera event. The DJ was truly a professional and he kept the party going and blended the music seamlessly.

    See all

Through the rollercoaster of planning a wedding during COVID-19, Adri remained cool, calm, creative and flexible. She helped us downsize our 300+ person wedding into a gorgeous and incredibly special micro wedding with our immediate families. Adri is an incredibly detailed process manager and her design sense is unparalleled. But what really sets her apart is her beautiful spirit and passion for creating extraordinary events. It is truly a joy to work with her, and she radiates a calming presence that puts everyone at ease. She treats her clients like family, and is kind and collaborative with every vendor. There were so many instances when Adri went WAY above and beyond the scope of our contract to make sure every our wedding weekend was absolutely perfect. Even her amazing husband Gabe (who is a full-time firefighter) showed up on multiple occasions to help!

She took the time to learn about us and hear what we like, and carefully curated the wedding of our dreams (with, of course, her unmatched creativity). Miami is an intimidating place to plan a wedding, and she made the process smooth and easy. Having someone with expertise surrounding budgets, reliable vendors, and flexible venues is key to being stress-free while planning a wedding. We got so many compliments from guests saying it was the "best wedding we've ever been to." I'm not sure if my husband and I will ever be done looking at pictures from our day; it was the best weekend of our lives. Forever grateful for Adriana + team for making it happen.
