Hi all!
I'm newly engaged and beginning the treacherous hunt for a wedding venue. The ceremony will be taking place in either Oakville or Georgetown (still deciding based on reception choice). Initially we fell in love with some places downtown, but have decided for our guests sake, to keep it simple in the west end.
We are doing a cocktail and lunch reception, for about 60-70 people. Small, casual, intimate, not very traditional and no dancing/dj. More cocktail style, but with a sit down lunch.
I'm having a really tough time with venue selection. I love the idea of having a lake-front venue (Harbour Banquet Centre, Oakville/Spencers Waterfront, Burlington), but would rather go a different route than the traditional banquet hall feel.
Can anyone recommend any good, trendy restaurants that might be suitable? Initially - we were looking at two places in the Distillery, and Canoe as our venues.
The last resort would be a golf club - if anyone has any positive/negative experiences in the area, I welcome those.
Broad in nature I know, but if anyone can provide any insight or recommendations, I'd totally appreciate it!
Thanks!
Nicole
