Unique Outdoor Wedding Venue

From the moment we first arrived at Drysdale's, my now husband(!) and I knew immediately that we wanted to get married there. It was the first venue we looked at, and needless to say, it was our last. We were completely charmed with Drysdale's train, the adorable red benches, the beautiful grounds and the greenhouse complete with twinkle lights.
Our wedding took place on August 10th, 2019 and we were lucky enough to have a sunny summer day. We were married under a beautiful oak tree surrounded by friends and family. Following the ceremony was cocktail hour by the gazebo where guests mingled and played lawn games. From there, dinner (a summer barbecue) and reception was held in the greenhouse. The wide variety of settings meant our guests were never bored and created such a fun atmosphere. We received so many compliments that our wedding was unlike anything people had been to before and was so different from your typical banquet hall wedding, which was exactly what we were going for.
The team at Drysdale's, especially Luke, were very responsive, usually getting back to me in a matter of hours. They were extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to make our wedding day absolutely perfect. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
Thank you Drysdale's for everything! :)

Enchanting and Affordable!

I had my wedding at Drysdales on July 13th and had a very positive experience with them. The staff were friendly and helpful every step along the way. We were able to bring all our own vendors and had access to our spaces for the whole weekend. Camping for our guests was an extra bonus. My only suggestion would be to update the patio with a more elaborate pond or water feature. Overall a wonderful experience and I’m so happy we can return there each winter to buy our Christmas tree.

Amazing venue!

Drysdale's Tree Farm is incredible at anytime of the year. We held our wedding here on October 7,2017 and we could not have picked a better venue! Our guests were able to enjoy the stars, greenhouse atmosphere and haunted hay ride! I definitely recommend going with Drysdales for any occasion not just a wedding venue.

So happy we picked this venue !

As soon as we had our tour - we knew we were getting married here ! The whole property is stunning and a photographers dream to get the best wedding photos ! So many magical spots for ceremonys and photo opportunities! The greenhouse provides the perfect reception area and it's so nice that you can customize it exactly how you want. We did a very rustic country theme and the whole venue fit perfect !

Response to COVID19

We had our wedding scheduled for June 2020 at Drysdale's and it was obviously affected by COVID. Prior to this Drysdale's was okay to work with in planning the wedding, no true complaints. But once we were faced with the reality we could not have our wedding, their true side came out. Their e-mail response time was unacceptable. Their offers on solutions to couples who had to cancel their weddings only benefited them. They were requesting an additional large installment of money to secure a date in 2021, ignoring the fact that we may have to cancel our 150 person wedding even when it was a month away and government restrictions were still at 5 people. They did not even entertain the idea that they would return any of our money. I understand this is a difficult time for businesses, but we felt they were stealing our money and refusing to work with us or hear our concerns. Talking to the owner was useless and he was very difficult to get a hold of. If everything goes splendidly maybe they are okay to deal with but as soon as there is a problem they were unprofessional and their true motives came out, which is that they were only concerned with their business and not the customer.

The only best to get perfectly beautiful trees!

I purchased Christmas trees as decor for my winter wedding. They looked and smelled amazing. In terms of quality, you cannot go wrong with Drysdales trees.

Beautiful Glass Greenhouse Space

Drysdales was a great venue for anyone looking to really customize their wedding reception. The greenhouse space on its own is a beautiful space and the possibilities are endless. We decided to do a "Lord of the Rings" style forest wedding and the staff at Drysdales was happy to work with us to make that happen. They were professional, courteous and very accommodating.

Thank you Drysdales!

Unprofessional

If you are considering renting the greenhouse for your wedding or event, I would highly suggest thinking it through as this is not a professionally run facility. We live out of province and chose the location as my fiancé grew up in the area. The communication from the staff left a lot to be desired as we waited weeks for responses to simple questions. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our booking 6 months ahead of the date for family reasons. Nicole said she would let us know if the facility was rebooked for that weekend and that she would be in touch to discuss our partial refund. No contact was ever made- but we received a cheque in the mail for 25% of our deposit back. Multiple emails have been sent, with no acknowledgement from Drysdale’s staff—and we are kind professionals so it’s not like these were harshly worded, rude emails. We just don’t understand how this family run and operated business feels it is okay to benefit from our misfortune as they made full payment on whoever booked the location for the date we gave up. If anything, it would have made more sense for them to keep 25% of our deposit as compensation for the handful of (delayed) emails exchanged during the early planning phases.

Couldn’t ask for a better venue

I wanted a do it yourself venue and I knew Drysdale’s would give me that. Planning during 2020 was hard but Drysdale’s was so quick and easy to communicate with I never once questioned what regulations may have changed because Serena was quick to Reassure us...10/10 hands down wedding venue of our dreams!
