    Excellent experience except for the parking. We thought the gated lot next to the building was there's but it was not available. Everything else was top-notch. Thank you!

    I booked this space for my wedding reception and could not have loved it more! It was the perfect mix of modern, industrial, and rustic. The ideal blank slate to create our dream space. Our theme was moody and romantic, and it turned out better than I could have envisioned. I loved being able to customize the color of the uplighting, and choose our own signature cocktail for our bar menu!! The venue coordinator was so great to work with- quick and clear communication, and made things as easy as possible for us as the big day came closer. The venue was easy to find, and had plenty of space (and then some) for our 100+ guest count.

    As a wedding photographer, it was a pleasure to work at Lake Affect Studios! Everything was well organized and the courtyard outside provided us with a pretty, protected space for portraits during a very windy day. Definitely recommend! Images by Jennifer Elizabeth Photography.

    My clients Cait & Zac had their ceremony and reception at Lake Affect and it went off without a hitch. The ceremony space was ample and has a very cool industrial vibe to it. The bistro lighting in there is amazing. The reception space was perfect for dancing the night away. The staff was so helpful and readily available to help. Fantastic location for a wedding or event! photos by: Me and the Moon Photography

    This is a nice venue. I attended a bridal shower there. My only complaint is that this is very industrial decor. There is nothing to absorb noise. So even though sitting at the same table, it was hard to hear those a chair or two away from me.

    I attended this venue as a vendor with Cleveland Bazaar and it is fabulous! The full bar is a plus, also serving coffee in the am.

    Absolutely fabulous! My daughter's baby shower was a success! The space is huge and it allowed us to keep it Covid safe for all in attendance. I can't say enough about how beautiful it is inside. It's very well kept and clean. I have to thank Amanda for her assistance throughout the entire process. I will definitely use Lake Affect Studios for future events.

    They have a good sized art show every year with a lot of local craft and artists. Fun, unique items.

    If you are imagining a relaxed, rustic-industrial style for your wedding, Lake Affect Studios is the place for you! This venue is the most beautiful blank canvas that you could imagine. Our goal was to have both the ceremony and reception at the same venue and Lake Affect Studios had exactly that. The industrial warehouse space had more than enough room to support our ceremony including a large bridal party and 150 guests. We utilized their main space for our reception, that included a built-in bar, mood lighting, and a stage which helped to create the romantic and chill atmosphere that we were going for. The space had the ability to feel intimate without being claustrophobic. Our guests had ample room to move about, either hanging at the bar, dancing on the dance floor, or hanging in the back playing games. The private bridal suite made it easy to take a step away or have a celebratory moment with our bridal party. The venue staff did not go unnoticed and went above and beyond to help make our wedding day a success. Finally, a big shout out to Stephanie who worked with us to make sure we had a layout that would work for their venue and a timeframe that fit the night. She supported us in our bar decisions and even allowed us to take pictures on the roof. She was an excellent resource and supporter for our non-traditional wedding.

    IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT BLANK SLATE LOOK NO FURTHER!! we had our wedding/ reception here August 26th, 2023 and hands down was the best venue ever. ALSO it was the first a and only venue we looked at because it was that perfect. Stefanie Chips the venue coordinator was extremely helpful from the very beginning until the very end and even after the end when our hot messes forgot some things there. She made the day so special to us. She was literally my angel the day of the wedding! The beauty in this place is amazing and can fit whatever theme you want to portray for your day! Also the natural light in the place is breathtaking. The bartending staff was perfect and fast with our family and friends! I couldn’t recommend this venue more to people!!! It truly was the most magical experience!! Thank you Lake Affect and thank you so much to Stefanie and the staff there!!
