Ottawa Wedding Resources
and Links

Ottawa is endowed with such a wide array of venues suitable for holding wedding ceremonies many of which are also great for wedding receptions. The challenge is to find one with the right capacity for the number of guests you anticipate as well as having the desired ambience for the date you have in mind.

Having performed over 2,000 ceremonies since we started, we have first hand familiarity with all of the top venues and most of the the others in the greater Ottawa area. We are experienced with the unique features of each location and how you can maximize them or adapt your ceremony to their individualities.

Feel free to consult with us about your wedding plans before you book a facility for your ceremony or reception and you could learn about some hidden gems that could save you thousands in your wedding budget, including ones which allow you to select your own caterers and also run your bar, without the usual mark-ups.
