Cody Sent on 10/03/2025Awesome venue!
We had our wedding at the Drake hotel this past weekend and we are so happy with how it went!! The Drake is a beautiful venue with lots of artsy, quirky touches that make it special. The food was delicious, the space was gorgeous and the staff were all very professional, communicative and accommodating. It was great to be able to get ready at the hotel, as well as provide a place for out of town guests to stay.
We worked with Faegen as our venue coordinator and decided to also hire her as our day of coordinator. She was super friendly, helpful, and enthusiastic when helping us plan our big day. It really eased a lot of the stress of planning to know that we were in such good hands. On our wedding day, she was calm, professional, and made sure that everything ran smoothly. We can’t thank her enough for all of her help!!
I highly recommend The Drake for anyone who is looking for a unique, fun and stylish venue in Toronto for their wedding!

Chris Sent on 12/10/2018Perfect Venue
The Drake was the perfect venue for what we were looking for - which was a venue for 130 people that felt intimate, could provide just enough of the traditional fixtures (ceremony, speeches, etc.) but was also much more of a party. The 'standing buffet' style meant that we could talk to everyone, and the party felt very informal - and the expertise the staff brought to the format meant we could relax.
Plus - the venue is incredibly stylish, and exactly what we were looking for. -

Natalie Sent on 30/05/2017Thank you to The Drake Hotel ***especially Jessica*** for helping to make our wedding dreams come true!! It is difficult to put into words but I shall try. After going to so many weddings, we felt that many of them started to blend in together and they had a similar format. We wanted to prioritize music, dancing, great good, and mingling/socializing in a fun but unique venue. The Drake Hotel could not have been more perfect for us. Jessica was incredible to work with. She is responsive, really understands what her clients are looking for, obviously a great planner, and really goes above and beyond to bring everything to life. There was not one detail missed. The food was incredible and plentiful, and Jessica's day of coordination kept everything on schedule. We stayed on the main floor for dinner and some initial dancing, and then decided to go downstairs to the Underground for late dancing and snacks. We had an incredible live band (Soular) so how could we not use the concert stage down there! We had 150 guests and it wasn't too crowded or too empty feeling. Anyways I digress.... although of course the wedding would have been amazing because I married my amazing husband, it was that much better because it literally brought everything we wanted in a wedding to life. THANK YOU SO MUCH to Jessica and everyone at The Drake for giving us the best wedding, and our guests an amazing night. Everyone is still raving about it and so many people said it was one of the best parties!! Not that our intention was to be the best, but again, just being different helps to freshen things up. If you are looking for a downtown Toronto wedding venue that is not as traditional, with all the bells and whistles, pick the Drake! -
