A dream wedding at the Algonquin

Our wedding at the Algonquin was gorgeous. We worked with Kate, the wedding and event coordinator, who answered our countless emails and questions and was present during the wedding rehearsal and wedding day. Kate was the utmost professional in all our communications. She worked with all of our other vendors to make the big day run smoothly. The Algonquin is a historic hotel set in a really cute fishing village. Our family is from all over Canada so no matter what, our wedding would end up feeling like a 'destination' wedding. We are so glad we chose The Algonquin for our wedding. Our guests loved exploring St. Andrew's and were impressed with the European/fairy tale look of The Algonquin. Many guests stayed at the Algonquin and enjoyed the restaurant, pool, grounds and room while other guests chose to stay in some of the smaller hotels or airbnbs. I was happy that our guests had a choice of accommodation that fit their style and budget. In addition to this, everything in St. Andrew's is within walking distance so no one had to worry about drinking and driving. The hotel is a part of Marriott properties which means your event will come with Marriott points (yay!) but also some strict operating rules that independent hotels may not have. For example, no lit candles, no confetti and they couldn't be as flexible as we had hoped with the ceremony and reception locations. However, in the end these things did not affect our day at all. The wedding was accessible for our older family members who have trouble with stairs. We were not able to attend a menu tasting due to them only being scheduled at certain times of the year. We didn`t need to be worried though! The buffet at our wedding we really good! Much better than we expected! Guests commented on the tasty salmon and great selection of appetizers. They were able to accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and shellfish dietary restrictions. Thank-you so much to Kate and the team at The Algonquin Resort for making our day run so smoothly. We are looking forward to returning to The Algonquin Resort for years to come to celebrate wedding anniversaries. St. Andrew's will always hold a special place in our hearts!

We got married in St. Andrews on July 10, 2015, and our Reception was at the Algonquin Resort. From the very beginning, the staff at the hotel were very accommodating, right down to Chef making the menu of our dreams come true! Our guests all enjoyed a wonderful stay as well. A beautiful day that exceeded all of our expectations!
