Stunning and beautiful day of experience, preparation a bit difficult

The Edgewater Manor is one of the most picturesque venues I've found inside and out for a mid-size wedding. The grounds are small but beautiful with a ceremony space right on the lake and a beautiful covered area for cocktails/rain plan. The mansion is great for photos with a lovely stone facade and beautiful castle-like interior. The crew involved on the day of was excellent, prompt, polite and accommodated everything we needed. Bastion and Joe took care of us very well. The issue was that, leading up to the wedding, Peter was difficult to stay in touch with. He would often answer only one out of three questions asked in an email and he also promised us things that the events manager later told us were impossible which caused a lot of unnecessary stress the week of the wedding. You also aren't allowed to have sparklers or confetti (or rather you are allowed confetti if you make your guests clean up the lawn after which, of course, we didn't do) so factor that in to your planning. We wasted time and money prepping confetti before we found this out and that was disappointing. The food was delicious and everything else was great, just make sure you don't trust what Peter says until you confirm with Bastian.

Amazing Venue, Beautiful Gardens, Great Food & A Fantastic Team!

We booked the Edgewater Manor for our wedding in July 2022 after our original venue closed during COVID. Peter, the owner, is so flexible and really works with you to match what kind of food and style you'd like for your wedding. The staff were all amazing during the times we visited to have dinner and they were happy to answer any questions we had. The gardens and Morris room are incredible, we had so many guests asking how we found this venue and raving about the food. Everyone was so stuffed from the 5 course meal and they all raved about how delicious the meal was. I couldn't recommend this place more to any couple, and we definitely plan to come back to celebrate our anniversaries!

Best Venue for a Wedding Reception!

We had our wedding at Edgewater last week, and it was an incredible experience. All of our guests have been raving about the ambience, the venue, food and service!

A huge thank you to Peter who worked with us to plan the event and Baastian who was there on the day of the event to ensure everything went smoothly. Baastian made sure that my husband and I had time to eat and drink in between all the photoshoots and events, checking in on us regularly - this really made us feel taken care of!

A thank you as well to all the incredible serving staff who were soo hospitable and kind! Overall, very happy we decided to go with Edgewater as our reception venue!

Gorgeous Venue Extraordinary Food

My husband and I were married at Edgewater manor and we believe this is the perfect venue! You get the beauty of the lake and the elegance of the historic building. Our guests enjoyed the beauty of the outdoor space and all of the seating that was provided to allow for social distancing.

Since we were still dealing with restrictions due to covid 19 we had our dinner outside on their covered patio. The staff did an amazing job catering to everyone’s needs including bringing around gluten free bread and providing lactose free and vegan options for our guests.

We received so many compliments about our choice of venue and the quality of the food. We look forward to returning to Edgewater manor to celebrate our anniversaries for years to come!

Thank you to the even staff that helped make our day so unforgettable!

The Best Wedding Venue!

Edgewater Manor is the most stunning venue in the GTA! If we could give them more than 5 stars we would! We had our Wedding here at the end of August where ourselves and our guests were in awe of this one of a kind property! Bastiaan and his Team executed the event exactly as planned, being a constant support answering hundreds of our questions promptly and professionally. Their food and service is second to none (another praise from all our our guests), with a wide selection of options and the ability to customize the menu to fit your vison. The orders of our guests were taken at the table, which our guests commented on the impressiveness on the a la carte service for over 100 people.

We would highly recommend this venue to everyone, and will be sure to visit the restaurant for years to come.

Best Day Ever!!

Thank you for making our dream day a reality! The food was amazing (two weeks later and we still have guests talking about how good the food was); and the venue is absolutely gorgeous, from the outdoor ceremony surrounded by water to the indoor marble staircase as your enter the manor. We even were blessed with a cotton candy sky sunset - it was epic! We had the pleasure of working with Peter who was very easy to work with and answered all of our questions. The event staff were flawless as well. Everything was perfect! Thank you!!
