    Beautiful and lovely venue, service was difficult

    We had a really nice reception on May 10 but the planning process leading up was very difficult for us. Our previous venue coordinator was uncommunicative, unresponsive, and difficult to get a hold of.
    I would wait weeks to hear an answer back. Weeks prior to our wedding, we were introduced to Nina, the new venue coordinator. She was so helpful and sweet throughout the last few weeks of our planning, I felt very heard and comfortable with her.
    We received great reviews on the food and our guests were impressed by the character of the hotel but we had a difficult planning process due to the lack of communication by the venue coordinator. A few of my guests also had a difficult time booking their rooms because the front staff they spoke to were "unaware" of an incoming wedding. Our discount link also did not work.
    Overall, we enjoyed our reception but disappointed in the lack of responsiveness from the venue manager.

    Great event!

    The venue is stunning! We had our welcome party at the venue the Thursday before our wedding. The team we worked with for this event were extremely quick to respond and amazing.

    For our wedding, we had about 100 people. The food was great, venue was accommodating and everyone we worked with was very nice. Communication leading up to the wedding could have been a bit better but overall they were all very kind and we had a beautiful wedding.

    So perfect!

    The Gladstone was the perfect venue for our ceremony and reception. It has everything you need for a truly special wedding- a beautiful, historic site, gorgeous accommodations, great food, caring and helpful staff. We were so impressed by how easy the day was; we didn't worry about a thing! We felt so supported and cared for by the whole Gladstone team and are grateful that we were able to get married in such an incredible space.

    Tip: Make sure you book the Tower Suite- amazing for photos anytime of year! I also recommend hiring one of the Gladstone staff to be in charge of décor set up. Makes things so much easier!

    Beautiful Winter Wedding!

    We had our wedding at the Gladstone Hotel on Saturday February 8th, 2020. It was honestly better than we could have expected! The food was excellent – we had many compliments on it from guests. Initially we had gone with their Winter menu, which was offered to us at the time, and we had chosen the bone-in rib steak and hoisin butter salmon. But to be honest, we were not happy with those selections and asked for alternatives from their non-winter menu. You should know that there was an extra charge to do so, but in our opinion, it was well worth it. We chose the slow-braised short rib and the black cod, both of which were delicious. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful throughout the entire day (checking in on us while getting ready in the bridal dressing suite) and night (checking in with us throughout cocktail hour and dinner) to make sure that everything went smoothly. We paid the extra $100 to have a Gladstone staff member help set up for the ceremony and the reception and everything was beautiful! We loved how everything looked, it was well worth it! We also chose to add uplighting which added a great effect. Having the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all at the same venue was also very convenient for guests. The signature welcome cocktails that were offered to guests when they arrived (we chose “the Salon”, which had Lot 40 whisky, maple syrup, grapefruit and egg white) were a huge hit. Following the ceremony, the cocktail hour was in a gallery that was already decorated with (rotating) art displays, so we didn’t even need to add anything to decorate that room, it looked great on its own! We also had a few family members and friends staying in the hotel and they all commented on how great the staff were in helping them settle in and feel comfortable. They were quick to assist my parents in using the elevator as my father has mobility issues. We also stayed two nights in the hotel – the night of our wedding and the night after. We really enjoyed our stay in the Tower Suite and were so happy to just relax the day after the wedding. We were interested in going to the drag brunch the next morning at the hotel, but it books up fast so make sure to make your reservations in advance. Finally, we would also really like to thank Sarah McGree, she was a huge help in organizing the event for us. She was in regular contact with us throughout the entire process and was very helpful. She answered all of our questions very promptly and offered us planning advice. We were so glad that we had the opportunity to work with her in planning our special day.

    The best venue for a wedding!

    The Gladstone Hotel was a remarkable place to have our ceremony and reception. The character and unique decor in every area made it the perfect backdrop for a wedding. We cannot thank Sarah McGree (our event coordinator) enough for all her hard work organizing and planning our big day in such a short period of time. We really had the most magical weekend and our guests absolutely loved it!

    Winter Wedding at the Gladstone

    Our wedding was absolutely perfect! We can't thank Sarah enough for all your help in setting everything up. The hotel looked gorgeous and The Gladstone Team were all amazingly helpful and friendly. It was an absolute pleasure working with Sarah and the wider team from start to finish. Everything went so smoothly and it was better than we could've imagined. We are so incredibly happy - both still beaming from the day.

    Beautiful Venue with Incredible Staff - Felt Truly Collaborative

    The Gladstone Hotel, and their incredible staff, made for an absolutely perfect wedding day. Their level of detail, and the collaboration we felt, made the planning experience truly special. They handled my mini bridezilla moments with ease, and everyone worked to ensure that we, and our guests, had the best time.

    Wedding Reception

    We knew as soon as we met Sarah that we made the right choice with the Gladstone for our wedding party. All of the staff were incredible from start to finish. Professional, responsive, courteous, accommodating ... the list goes on. The Gladstone is a beautiful location, and we just can't say enough about Sarah, Daniel and the entire Gladstone team.
