Dreams do come true

A dream of mine as a child was to get married in s big red barn, when I met Debora and heard her story in bringing life back to this one of a kind gem I knew it was the one! Debora and her staff are charismatic and hard working, they helped us out along the way to create a dream come true!

1000/5 stars

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Deb and The Heritage Centre team!
They truly helped bring my husband and I’s dream day to life. First of all the venue is STUNNING. Our guests still can’t stop talking about it!
Everyone was so amazing to deal with! They were very flexible, professional and SO helpful. From the second we met Deb, we knew that there was no other option for our venue, and our wedding was in incredible hands!
I can’t recommend it enough!

Amazing All in one venue

If you need it they have it. Indoor ceremony, outdoor ceremony, multiple reception halls, places for wedding party to get ready, multiple bars, absolutely amazing grounds. Talk to Deb. Absolutely amazing experience at this venue so much so my brother also got married here.

Amazing venue

I cannot say enough about this venue. Deb is by far the most accommodating and helpful person. Venue was spectacular and the staff go above and beyond to help you. Deb worked with us during Covid and was honestly the most caring person, allowing us to have both an elopement and rebook our date to another date after Covid. 10/10 worth your time and money.

Beautiful venue and wonderful staff!

There were so many extra's we could use for decorating, this is a beautiful venue with lighting and décor before we added our own decorations. Booking with Debra was so easy and on the wedding day the staff was amazing. They saw all details and tented to them before we needed to think of it. It was a memorable day and I wouldn't hesitate to use this venue again! Great for photos inside and out!

Beautiful rustic wedding venue

We got married at The Heritage Centre in September and had a fabulous day. The various spaces have been thoughtfully curated, and the staff was incredibly helpful in ensuring the day flowed seamlessly.

Overall great experience

Overall great experience. Absolutely stunning venue.

The girls and I had an amazing little house to get ready in. Watch those stairs though, they’re steep. The boys also had an amazing getting ready room.

The hall is beautiful and the barn chapel is stunning. Magazine worthy! Such an amazing space. The groomsman room doubled as a kids room for naps; with games and an Xbox in there.

You DO NOT need to buy directional signage or really any signage as it’s provided; didn’t realize that until we paid for many rentals.

The one thing I will say is to write down everything and be mindful with your booze; and triple read the contract. We were told we could bring our own table wine and beer. A week before hand; after buying a LARGE financial amount of beer we were told we couldn’t do that. It worked out in the end but it caused unnecessary stress.

Be careful with bridesmaid and groomsman gifts if you plan to give and open them there. As a VERY rude comment was made to the mother of the bride saying “there’s booze in the groomsman gift bags. They’ll end up drunk and puking in my parking lot”

Well, that indicated that not only did the owner go through our gift bags; but that comment was rude and uncalled for. Nor did it happen.


All in all Deb was wonderful to work with. And we will be back for their Christmas markets and summer farmers market.

Dream Wedding

We got married at the Heritage Centre in June and it was nothing shy of amazing! We live on a farm close by and Deb and her staff were so accommodating in letting us bring several big pieces of farm equipment to the barn and parking it there to complete our day! This really shows that anything here can be made possible. I really loved the fact that Deb already has so many decorations and things to choose from, this really saved a lot of stress leading up to the day! Overall I wish I could marry the same person all over again... I wouldn't have changed our experience here one bit. An exceptional venue and staff, without all their efforts our day wouldn't have gone as flawless as it did. 10/10 recommend this venue to anyone!

Easy owner to work with & beautiful venue!

This was the most perfect venue for our May wedding! When I say that Debora is one of the most down to earth, kind and caring business owner we’ve ever worked with, we truly mean it! She worked with us every step of the way and allowed us to decorate and create the wedding of our dreams in her venue. But with how beautiful this venue is, you really don’t need much in terms of decoration! They can provide some decor if you’re in need of basic ones, which really helped us as well! Our family and friends enjoyed the venue and it was just the most perfect spot for a fireworks display at the end of the night. I highly recommend this place and we are so happy that we had our wedding here. Thank you Debora and staff for helping make our big day so special!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I spent 30 years planning our venue and after celebrating a major milestone birthday in 2017 I took the big leap and made my life long dream a reality by building and opening The Heritage Centre!!
