Once Norwalk’s best-kept secret, LaKota Oaks has just raised the bar on social events and conference experiences. Rebranding itself, new management is determined to revamp the former Dolce Norwalk. Major renovations are expected to be completed by March 2019, with the ultimate goal of becoming Connecticut’s premier event and conference center.

Their mission is to personify Hospitality Defined at every level, and every turn. To provide a white-glove level of service and attention that consistently deliver on the promise of truly memorable conferences and event experiences. Whether it’s tying the knot in style, a champagne birthday, or a team-building getaway, LaKota Oaks will ensure every piece is in place.

Catering to all types of events, the venue checked off all but one item on a list. The bountiful property unfortunately lacked a covered outdoor space. Recognizing this shortcoming, LaKota Oaks contacted ShadeFX to transform their outdoor patio into a functional and engaging area.

Working together with Eastern Metal Works, ShadeFX assisted in the design of the structure to accommodate five custom retractable roofs. The ShadeFX service team travelled to the timeless property and installed the sun and rain solution. Mounting to the classic black steel structure, the waterproof taupe fabric provides over 1600 sq. ft of protection.

Refreshing the already spectacular venue, guests will appreciate the scenic ponds, deluxe guest rooms and vast number of amenities available. With the addition of a simple sun and rain solution, the patio presently offers complete protection from the elements.

Situated on 66 acres of rolling countryside view, LaKota Oaks is the perfect event space to escape the urban craziness. The patio offers panoramic views of the woodland property, beautifully enjoyed throughout the seasons.

Raising the bar on venues that stand out, LaKota Oaks has everything to offer. In fact, The Knot voted LaKota Oaks “Best of Weddings” for 5 years straight, and again recently in 2018. Accordingly, as the renovations complete this enchanting place will have everyone talking and pinpointing it on a map.
