This milestone reflects three years of growth and enduring hospitality. These efforts have built lasting connections with guests and partners alike.

Opening its doors in 2023, Lakehall at Nena’s Sanctuary has grown into a sought-after destination for weddings and events. As Lakehall Celebrates Three Years of Bringing Memorable Celebrations to Life, it welcomes milestone celebrations, corporate gatherings, and community events. Built on a vision of contemporary spaces surrounded by nature, Over the past three years, it has supported celebrations for clients, partners, and professionals.

“It all began when I wanted to create an alternative destination for families to celebrate the moments of their lives that they most cherish,” shared Donnie Tantoco, Chairman of Lakehall.

“We wanted to create contemporary spaces nestled in nature, where discovery, serendipity, and the experiences that can only happen when you escape to nature become part of every celebration.”

Over the years, that vision has taken shape through hundreds of celebrations, from intimate family milestones to grand weddings, corporate functions, and community gatherings. Along the way, Lakehall has become a trusted partner in creating thoughtfully curated experiences, made possible through the collaboration of clients, event professionals, and a dedicated network of suppliers.

Celebrating Three Years Together

To commemorate the occasion, Lakehall hosted a Supplier Appreciation Night. It brought together the planners, coordinators, stylists, photographers, florists, entertainers, and industry collaborators who have played an important role in the venue’s journey over the past three years. The evening celebrated the collaborations and shared dedication that have helped bring countless occasions to life at Lakehall, while also marking the unveiling of the enhanced Lakehall Banquet.

Guests were among the first to experience Lakehall Banquet’s expanded culinary offerings through a specially curated five-course plated dinner prepared by the in-house culinary team, complemented by a free-flowing dessert buffet and ice cream cart. A retrospective gallery featuring event setups and milestone occasions from Lakehall’s first three years offered guests a look back at the milestones, collaborations, and creative partnerships that have defined Lakehall’s journey.

The Next Chapter

Since its initial introduction, Lakehall Banquet has continued to grow alongside the needs of its clients. With the opening of its dedicated commissary, the team has expanded its capabilities to accommodate larger-format celebrations of more than 200 guests while offering a wider range of culinary experiences prepared on-site within Lakehall. Its diverse Asian and continental menus are complemented by plated and buffet dining options, interactive food stations, handcrafted desserts, and flexible styling concepts that range from understated elegance to fully customized event designs. Through more structured catering packages designed to complement Lakehall’s venue offerings, clients can enjoy a more seamless planning experience with packages aligned to their event needs and venue requirements.

Through the evolution of Lakehall Banquet, clients can now experience a seamless celebration where exceptional venues, thoughtfully prepared cuisine, and personalized styling come together under one roof.
