Perfect wedding venue

My husband and I had the most incredible wedding at the Forest and Stream Club. The manager was always available to answer our questions and the service was impeccable. All of our guests raved about the quality of the food and the intimacy of the venue. The grounds are beautiful and the perfect place for any special event.

Parfaite réception

nous sommes tombés amoureux de l’endroit dès notre première visite, avons été plus que convaincu par la dégustation mais la journée et la soirée de notre mariage ont dépassé, et de loin, nos attentes. Le service était exceptionnel, les employés avenants, prévoyant, discrets et sympathiques. Nos invités ont plus qu’appréciés et, nous, si c’était à refaire, nous n’y changerions rien. La nourriture délicieuse, l’endroit!!!! Tout simplement parfait.

Our perfect day.

We planned our wedding very quickly and with a very tight schedule the team at Forest & Stream was very helpful and accommodating in making everything as we hoped. Our guests were so pleased with our venue. We kept getting compliments on how wonderful the place was and how much they loved it. Our November wedding was still so pretty and elegant. We had a picture perfect wedding. We couldn’t be happier that we were married at the beautiful Forest and Stream Club.

The Perfect Venue

From the minute we set foot on the grounds of the Forest and Stream Club, we knew it was where we wanted to have our wedding because it was just so gorgeous. From the forest, to the lake, from the stunning dining room, to the charming preparation rooms, Forest and Stream Club offers the whole package. Through all the planning, Eric was always ready to help and he offered welcomed advice and tips. The day of the wedding, Cynthia and the staff were friendly and very professional making sure we had nothing to worry about. They were definitely a big part of making our special day the perfect day. The attention to the detail was impeccable and the food was absolutely delicious. Everyone was impressed with the Club and couldn't stop talking about how beautiful it was. Moreover, this venue makes for the most amazing wedding pictures. We couldn't have chosen a better place to get married. A special thanks to Eric who was always so welcoming and easy to talk to and to Cynthia for her refreshing energy and the many laughs we shared.

The best wedding venue in Montreal.

The Forest and Stream club is THE place for weddings in Montreal. The location by the water is a one of a kind. Our guest still tell us after more than a month how perfect the venue was. It can match any wedding styles, from Rustic to chic.

Eric, Cynthia and all the team at the Forest and Stream Club were professional, always there to accommodate us on our big day and along the process before.
They literally took care of everything.

The sunset we had on our wedding was breath taking. after dinner every body rushed outside to take pictures. Even at night the ambiance was really intimate and warm.

We honestly couldn't ask for a better venue. No decor was really needed other than the flowers on the dinner tables. The "all inclusive" format makes your planning so much easier and stress free. No need to rent anything other than the band/DJ, the celebrant and curtains if you want to decorate the gazebo in the back.

When we first visited the venue we couldn't believe that we were able afford the place. The prices are really competitive. You have a lot of services for what you are paying for with no hidden fees. Eric was transparent with us during the whole planning.

We are forever grateful to have had the chance to host our wedding at the Forest and Stream Club.

Unimaginable, unforgettable in every way!

Our whole experience from top to bottom was so surreal. It was extraordinary in terms of a venue, service, food and ambiance. From the very beginning from when we first stepped in to see the venue, we were blown away.   Our guests were mostly from out of town, primary from Europe, South America and the US. Everyone was blown away by the romantic beauty of the place. It's being called the wedding of the year or best wedding ever on their social media posts. The food and service were unparalleled. We had some last minute cancellations (as is the norm) and they handled everything beautifully. Our vendors were also treated exceptionally well. They all told us they were well looked after as well. In a few words, outstanding venue, amazing staff and service with attention to details.  It was a worry free beautiful romantic experience. Beyond anything we could have hoped for. We will share these memories for the rest of our life and we are very thankful and grateful to the Forest & Stream for making it happen.   SPECIAL THANKS TO ERIC, TED AND CYNTHIA (and her daughter), for their amazing professionalism, dedication, coordination and patience.

Simply the best!

The Forest and Stream Club was THE BEST venue! We had an amazing wedding day, and many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they've ever been to!

First of all, it is absolutely beautiful. The location is perfect, the gardens and trees are gorgeous, and the view of the lake is unbeatable. Eric, Ted and the rest of the team were extremely flexible and helpful. Eric answered tons of our questions by email, always patiently. We had quite a few vegetarians guests, guests who don't drink alcohol, and they accommodated us very easily. They were always polite and happy to help. We never felt like we were asking for too much.

The day of, everything ran smoothly. The food was very good, the service was excellent. Ted and the rest of the team assisted some of our older guests who had difficulty walking. They even helped us taking down decorations at the end of the night!

We visited a lot of venues in the Montreal area, and we are so happy we chose the Forest and Stream. Some of the venues charge fees for vegetarian options, or only have "open bar" options with no flexibility when many of the guests don't drink. This is something we really appreciated from the Forest and Stream - they are very open minded and accommodating, and won't add tons of fees everytime you modify something to cater to your guests.

Thank you Eric, Ted, and the rest of the team, for helping us spend such a wonderful day with our loved ones.

The best experience at a beautiful location with a thoughtful and knowledgeable team

The first communication with Eric was already pleasant. From providing initial information to setting up a meeting and a tasting, to answering any and all questions inbetween and to the day of, all instances of communication with the team at Forest & Stream Club was easy and informative.

Upon the first visit to the venue, my husband and I felt at ease. The building and its surroundings are at once stunning and calming. We were looking for a space that felt warm, welcoming and familiar - The Forest & Stream Club easily provided this for us. We knew we wanted to book our wedding date soon after our first visit.

The following months would be about setting up a food tasting. My husband and I had the entire front room to ourselves and that experience in itself was a pleasure. Cynthia was very warm, friendly, helpful and informative, offering tips about the food and the logistics of the wedding day. The Chef was also available for any questions and comments as well. All in all, we felt very well taken care of.

Leading up to the wedding day, whenever I had any questions, Eric was very quick to respond to any emails. On the day of, Cynthia was instantly readily available for anything I needed or wanted. She made sure we (me, bridesmaids, husband, groomsman, family etc) had everything we needed, and made sure we were to be wherever we were required to be! It really was such a dream to have her there for us throughout the day and night. She even made sure I was eating throughout the day! The food was so good that I couldn't NOT eat :-) I cannot thank Cynthia enough for making me more at ease on our wedding day. We didn't have a wedding planner; we were very confident and relieved at how helpful and easy it was to work with Eric and Cynthia on the day of our wedding.

We've had many guests tell us it was one of their best and most memorable weddings they've attended - the location, venue, food and staff were a joy. A truly amazing experience and not just because it was our wedding day :-)

The Forest and Stream is a spectacular venue. The water front mansion setting is very romantic and exactly what we were looking for.

We cannot say enough about the professionalism of the staff who helped make our day unforgettable. Eric was extremely helpful with the planning, offered invaluable advice and answered our many questions always with a smile. On the day, Cynthia was absolutely amazing and made sure everything ran smoothly. She helped calm a nervous bride when we arrived, saw us to the door at the end of the night and everything in between. If there were any hiccups along the way we certainly didn’t notice.

Our guests raved about the delicious food prepared by Chef Hamel, the wine and the beauty of the location! If you are looking for an elegant and intimate affair, this is the place!
