    We loved it!

    The venue is absolutely beautiful, regardless of the weather, your ceremony and reception will be beautiful! It was rainy and windy on our wedding day, and we couldn't have been any happier with how the day turned out! The venue manager we worked with was so kind and accommodating. Sage catering was amazing as well! The pricing is reasonable, considering all that you get, and as a UBC alum, we got a little discount, as well.

    Vancouver's Top Wedding Venue 🎧

    Our team has had the pleasure to DJ many weddings at this wonderful Vancouver venue. The service is always top notch, drinks and food are amazing and staff is friendly. The ceremony and dance-floor space is iconic and big. I would highly recommend getting married here.

    Iconic wedding venue

    Cecil Green was the perfect venue for our wedding! The garden is beautifully maintained and the house itself is historic and fashionable. Our event coordinator Amber was responsive and easy to work with, helping us to create the ideal floorplan and going above and beyond to schedule an extra visit to the house. Our guests, many from out of town, loved the views and this was a great place to show off the natural beauty of Vancouver.

    Gorgeous Venue-Perfect for Us

    This was our first choice venue and it exceeded all of our expectations. Its a beautiful venue with amazing decor already in the building, which helped reduce costs to provide our own decor. The gardens made for a gorgeous outdoor ceremony and fantastic pictures throughout. Everything about this venue was perfect for us and our guests were thrilled to be in such a lovely location. We would recommend this venue.

    Stunning Venue, Helpful staff

    My husband and I knew we needed to be married here. And we were so happy when our date was available. The costs was reasonable (astronomical for the size of our wedding) but I recommend it for a larger wedding. Our small wedding got a bit lost in the sheer size of the venue. The team was so helpful and answered all of my questions patiently as I was planning my own wedding. They also were able to deal with my day-of-coordinator once hired. Honestly they made planning a wedding across the country much easier than I expected.
    It rained on our wedding day and although we had planned an outside ceremony, we were easily able to swap over one of the rooms so we didn't get soaked.
    The only thing that was slightly difficult was planning our wedding which was a bit different than a traditional wedding. For example, our vendors were an arcade truck which we needed to find parking for. And although it was an odd request, Cecil was able to help us make it work!
    Overall the venue was amazing and we loved it so much!

    July wedding Cecil Green

    Cecil Green is the most stunning venue for a wedding. They were very responsive to our questions and accommodating to our requests of how we wanted everything set up. The food from Sage catering was absolutely delicious and we got a lot of compliments from our guests that the food was amazing. We held our ceremony outside on the lawn and our dinner on the upper terrace. The views were spectacular outside with all the florals and greenery. I highly recommend Cecil Green for a wedding venue!!

    Beautiful venue

    The venue is absolutely beautiful and everything we dreamed up. On the day of they set up everything beautifully - my coordinator did have to correct them on the set up of a few things. Leading up to the day they were great about answering all my questions, they had mixed up my parking option but it worked out in the end, response time was generally a few days but overall the venue was the perfect wedding venue. They work exclusively with Sage catering which would be nice if there was another option for more flexibility.

    Lovely place. Some challenges

    Beautiful venue - would highly recommend on that count.
    Communication with venue staff was fine.

    Communication with (exclusive) caterer (Sage Events) was a bit more challenging. The people we dealt with at first seemed new in the job and struggled to answer questions that weren't totally run of the mill. Once Bogdan took over, everything cleared up. Thanks Bogdan!

    The menu for 2022 was delayed multiple times, and when it finally came out prices had been hiked by 25% on average (and vendor meals by, somehow, 60% - from $25 to $40). Sure, inflation etc, but I happen to know where to look this up - google "statcan personal inflation calculator" - and grocery price inflation in BC from Feb 2021 to Feb 2022 was 6.6%, and inflation in the "eating out" category in that same period was 3.3%.

    But my bigger issue with the price hike is fair dealing. Nothing would have stopped them from quoting higher prices to us in 2021, at a point where we could have made an informed choice. Once we book a date for a wedding, we're locked in, so a substantial price hike at a point where we can't shop around anymore just doesn't feel like doing business in good faith.

    All that said, the food was delicious and the event went great. If you're prepared for a cost overrun and a bit of micromanaging, I'd still very much recommend this place.

    "The BEST venue in Vancouver"

    “That’s the best venue in Vancouver”. This is what a long-time event planner told my friend when she told her my wedding was going to be at the Cecil Green Park House. And I believe that she was spot on. We loved having both our ceremony and reception with our loved ones in this breathtakingly beautiful home, and many of our guests spoke about how they felt as if they were a part of one big family in the intimate and gorgeous setting of the Yorkeen dining room. We planned our wedding during what should have been a very stressful period – amidst a pandemic with evolving restrictions. But it honestly never felt that stressful and this is partly because of Gordon, Gordon, Gordon! Gordon Purchase was our person! At the time, he was our event manager and he was always there to respond to our many questions, listen to our concerns and calm us down - in the kindest way. We were also very fortunate that Cecil Green is one of the few wedding venues in Vancouver with its own covered patio. Despite some light rain, we said our I do’s outside, with a view of the Salish Sea behind us. And due to restrictions at the time, dancing and mingling wasn’t permitted inside, but because of that large patio and park-like setting, we still had cocktail hour, a foosball table, air hockey and the realization of our dream – a karaoke dance party!
