Rock Island: Onsite Ceremony Locations
If having your ceremony and reception in one location is a must for your wedding, we’ve got you! At Rock Island Lake Club, we have three ceremony spaces to choose from that are all just steps away from cocktail hour and reception. Say “I do” alongside the lake with a picture-perfect backdrop, on the deck overlooking the lake, or in the ballroom. Having backup options on your wedding day is crucial! Keep scrolling to see the different ceremony spaces onsite at our wedding venue.
Lakeside Ceremony
The lakeside ceremony space is what wedding dreams are made of! The trickling waterfalls, the tree-lined lake, and the singing birds create the most serene (and picturesque) setting for your wedding day. Check out our blog post featuring photos from each month at Rock Island to see what the views might look like for your lakeside wedding ceremony!
Envision yourself walking down the aisle to meet your future husband or wife by the water.
Deck Ceremony
When you want to get married outside, but mother nature has other plans… you get married on the covered deck overlooking the lake! You’ll still get the lake views that you fell in love, but you won’t have to worry about staying dry. This location is set right off of the ballroom and is open on three sides.
The sound of the rain + the lake views create such a romantic vibe— see the proof for yourself here!
Indoor Ceremony
Windows
Fireplace
If you’re getting married in the winter or if the weather isn’t what you had hoped for, the indoor ceremony space is for you! We have two options for indoor ceremonies— the windows or the fireplace. We’ll set up the ballroom for you to say “I do” in front of the windows or in front of the fireplace. Both options are cozy and romantic!
We’ll transform the ballroom for your ceremony and then we’ll work our magic to flip the space for the reception while you and your guests are enjoying cocktail hour.
Since weather conditions can be unpredictable, it’s important to have a plan b and c. When touring wedding venues, be sure to ask them if they have backup options, and make sure you like all of the backup options! At the end of the day, the most important thing is that you’ll be marrying your best friend no matter where that might be. All of the ceremony spaces at Rock Island provide a unique, yet beautiful setting and we hope you fall in love with each one like we have! Want to learn more about wedding ceremonies at Rock Island?
