Gui and Gen were nothing but excellent to us on our wedding day we cant thank them enough. Everything was great the grounds were beautiful for our pictures and the placement inside, magical. We loved the food and have had our guest just rave about our wedding. Some of my family and guest also said "that's the best wedding ive ever been to." "that's going to be a hard wedding to top". again great venue and I highly recommend it!

I am someone who is easily stressed when planning events. In the weeks leading up to my wedding, a number of people kept asking me if I was stressed and I would simply reply with "No, everything that I could possibly need to worry about is already being taken care of by Bean Town." However, even though I read all of their reviews & knew I had nothing to worry about, words truly cannot describe how amazing this place and their staff truly is. Leading up to our wedding day I continually pictured my dream wedding, knowing full well that it may not all work out the way I want it to, but somehow they made it all happen. The grounds are breathtaking, the food is to die for and the service is out of this world. They staff work their asses off and do everything in their power to make your day perfect and ours truly was. You really do feel like a king and queen as the bride and groom. I did not hear any complaints for any of my guests and almost all told me it was the best wedding they've ever attended, some even said it was better than their own children's. Genevieve is so easy to work with leading up to your wedding and replies to any inquires you have quickly. Pascale follows you the day of your wedding and is takes care of all of your wants and needs. Our day was so organized and everyone there was so attentive, there was no detail missed. I hope I am lucky enough to attend another wedding here as a guest and relive the magical day they create all over again.

They truly are terrific !!
This review honestly doesn’t even explain enough about how amazing Bean Town Ranch is.
Unfortunately due the the covid -19 pandemic my fiancé and I had to over come some financial hurtles. We reschedule our wedding and the finally had to cancel our wedding.
Although we won’t be having our wedding there, I wanted to express how amazing they have been regardless. They were so flexible and not to mention their communication is very good and fast. I can’t even count the amount of times I emailed them and had a response within the day sometimes within 10 min.
We had come across some miss-communication with them in the end and when they saw we were upset they reimbursed us with our deposit.
This are truly about the wedding couple and if they make a mistake or there is some kind of Miss- communication they do their best to immediately solve and come up with solutions.
They truly understand the financial burden that comes along with planning a wedding and they have consistently put the feelings of my fiancé and I above their own business to make sure we were happy.
I know any couple will be happy to have their wedding there and I will recommend them time and again.
They truly give you so much for the rates they charged compared to majority of wedding venues in Ottawa.
