Are you envisioning a fairy tale wedding set against a picturesque backdrop? Look no further than the Tavares Pavilion on the Lake. Serenely floating over beautiful Lake Dora, this tropical-inspired waterfront oasis is furnished with natural fibers, lovingly restored antiques, and original artwork.

Tavares Pavilion consists of an 8,000-square-foot two-story event center. On both floors lie indoor ballrooms that offer floor-to-ceiling windows for a covered ceremony or reception for up to 190 guests. The Ballrooms offer elegant espresso Chiavari chairs, aircraft aluminum tables, and handcrafted artistry.

Our carved, two-tier, winding wood staircase with a back glass wall overlooking the lake is a beautiful space to say your “I Do’s”. In addition, the venue has a 150-foot brick-paved pier that can be used for a stunning outdoor ceremony or a reception under the stars.

Your wedding day should be nothing short of magical, and Tavares Pavilion on the Lake promises just that.

Amy and the rest of the staff were OUTSTANDING! I was completely out of my element planning the wedding for my son and his beautiful bride but this venue was so perfect and the staff walked me through it. December is the perfect time as the venue is decorated \"to the nines\"! Everything fit into our budget and it was a huge success. I highly recommend this venue for a wedding.
