View quoted message This is breathtaking! I wish I was in BC!

View quoted message Wow! Absolutely stunning. Going to be a magical winter wedding. That staircase shot will be amazing! It's great that each part of your wedding will be held in seperate spaces and no waiting to transform the room.

If you can afford it, I highly recommend staying the night. We went during the winter and the outdoor pools were so comfortable and relaxing. Even a meal or just a drink in the restaurant seated next to the window overlooking the waterfall feels like bliss.

My wedding will be held at a country club. We like how they only book one party per day so no guests from other events stumbling into ours or vice versa. And we would get access to all of their different event rooms, which are all connected to a common lobby, so no running around random hallways or up and down any flights of stairs to get anywhere. We also like that it's contemporary and how both of the main event spaces have floor to ceiling windows for natural light.

Gotta love the stairwell wedding photo

They have a library that's used as the bridal suite, which also has a private en-suite bathroom. It could also be divided up (you can see where the partition goes on the ceiling) if we choose to have the guys get ready there as well.

Because we're planning a winter wedding and we knew we wouldn't want to be outside, we needed an indoor ceremony space. Unlike a lot of places where they would flip the ballroom from the ceremony to reception, ours have a dedicated space for ceremonies with a balcony that allows our photographer to get arial shots. They do have outdoor ceremony spaces too but we personally didn't explore it.

There's also a separate room for the cocktail hour that's connected to the main ballroom. This allows our guests to enter the ballroom while we prep ourselves in the lobby, away from the group, for our grand entrance.

The ballroom has floor to ceiling windows, which we really like. The soft light and gold furniture gives it a certain hotel-like character so we don't need to do much to spruce the place up but it's also flexible enough with the white walls that you can incorporate any colour scheme into it.

Even though we didn't want an outdoor ceremony, we do want a few outdoor winter photos, and one of the our draws to this place is that they're connected to a golf course, which they run. Even if weather conditions make it so we can't take pictures safely on the grounds, there's still a balcony attached to the ballroom as well as a gazebo outside just steps away from the entrance of the club where we can get some winter pictures in an outside setting.

We had our religious ceremony in the chapel in June! It was beautiful. What will you be doing?

We had 1 venue for the ceremony and reception being out in the nature and then indoors with lots of light coming through. Its the same view as Amanda with a different set up.

This is my venue for ceremony and reception!

View quoted message Oh nice to hear from someone who has actually visited the place! I'm debating about staying the night but that hot pool sounds tempting! I've actually driven there the last 3 weeks just to show people the grounds lol. Looking forward to some awesome photos as well. Crossing fingers no rain.


Tell us about your wedding Hank!

View quoted message Oooh, I took my fiancee to Millcroft for an anniversary dinner and spa session a few years back. Loved the space. Your pictures will be beautiful. And if you're staying there the night before, you get to relax in the hot pool before the wedding!

So many enticing options here!


I’m mixing things up a bit. We’re holding the entire event at an old hotel. We’ll have a ballroom reception but (weather permitting) our ceremony will be outdoors in their rooftop patio / garden.

I wanted to have a rustic barn wedding with a garden like ceremony. I didn't get exactly what I wanted as none of the venue's I saw had exactly all the elements I was looking for or were pricy. I ended up deciding on a garden ceremony with a waterfall and forest back drop and some hidden spots. The reception space is a bit of vintageish rustic feel with stone walls. I still dream about what it would have been like to combine all the elements of the different venues that I liked together. I didn't take any pictures of the venue but here is the weddingwire link that showcases the outside of the property https://www.weddingwire.ca/hotel-weddings/millcroft-inn-&-spa--e11860/real-weddings
