There is the option to use just one room or to move between venues. Available venues include the banquet hall, ballroom and restaurant available to use for wedding events.
Services offered
Couples can book the York Mills loft for ceremonies, receptions, engagement parties, rehearsal dinners and bridal showers. They also have the choice to utilize the following services:
We recently had our wedding this past Saturday at YMG2. My wife and I were floored at how wonderful everything looked and felt. A number of guests also complimented the decor, and never knew this place existed since it's hidden in an industrial complex. Claire has been a great help from the start, being flexible with our numbers, and guiding us through the process. We had multiple compliments about the food, from the appetizers to the entree, and the speed of service . We used CaterTrendz Culinary. The bar was staffed with 2 bartenders and they were able to provide speedy service with getting the drinks out.
We would highly recommend YGM for any event!

Amazing venue!
Just had my wedding at YMG (1) last weekend and it was absolutely perfect. The food was delicious, you can do so much with the space and everyone was really great to deal with!!
I fell in love with the venue because of the chairs, hah, but it was really perfect.
My only comment is that we originally were supposed to have our cocktail hour in the new outdoor reception (YMG0) and the week before the wedding they told us we couldn't have food or alcohol outside, so that was quite disappointing. But, it all worked out.
Would definitely recommend YMG to anyone!

Amazing from start to finish!
Wow. All we can say is wow. From start to finish, it was a pleasure to work with them. From the incredible taste test to the wedding day, it all came together and was a perfect magical day. The food was great, the venue beautiful. Thank you so much!

I had both mine and my brothers wedding in this venue. We had a great experience in both weddings. Ymg Staff was very helpful, professional and knowledgeable of our wedding customs and did their best to make our wedding a memorable one. Isaac is an amazing person, he was always available to help whenever we needed and tried his best to accommodate our unreasonable demands at times. The gallery is beautiful, spacious and well decorated with lighting with a nice dance floor. There was barely any need for external decoration. I want to Thank Isaac, Aileen, Frances, the office team and the wonderful waitstaff for making us a memorable occasion! Thank you!
