Welcome
Cork & Crate Estates started as a family owned tree farm and was majestically transformed into a one-of-a-kind special events venue. Enjoy the most private and picturesque location in Central Alberta! Cork & Crate Estates offers two specialized venues. A boutique “Teahouse” elopement centre, and a large custom venue “The Courtyard” and “Vine House.” Our 28 acres of amorous trees, sunflowers & privacy fenced estate is located in beautiful Mountain View County. With 45 minutes south of Red Deer and 45 minutes north of Calgary, you can see why it’s the perfect one stop sanctuary to celebrate with friends and family. A must see outdoor haven!
Cork & Crate began in 2012 with the wedding story of the founding owners, James and Rhonalyn Carpenter. Their wedding and love is what blossomed their vision of creating a passionately beautiful experience for others looking to join in union.
