Most amazing forest wedding!!
We couldn’t have asked for a better day to be married! We had the most amazing time and loved to share this day with our family and friends! The whole process with Kortright was very smooth and easy, Coordinator Kanak was absolutely amazing to work with, and also gave us many suggestions throughout the planning process. Absolutely a dream to work with her! ❤️
Cant recommend them enough!!

Beautiful venue
The venue and staff the night of the event were fantastic but make sure you hire your own coordinator. We had Kanak as our venue coordinator and were extremely underwhelmed. We had other peoples contracts with their personal information sent to us by mistake, would go months without responses to questions about the venue (eg. set up and tear down for dance floor vendor), we weren’t told the balcony was out of service until two weeks before our event even though it went out of service months prior, had our final details meeting where she hadn’t read anything we submitted in the package prior to the meeting, requested a second details meeting because she didn’t save any of her notes, she left before the reception started….
Thankfully, we had our own wedding coordinator who is an absolute dream. I would recommend Belle (bellesevents.ca) to anyone using this venue, she was absolutely incredible and this day would not have been the same if we just relied on the venue coordinator.The venue and staff the night of the event were fantastic but make sure you hire your own coordinator.

Thanksgiving Wedding
We worked with Jeffrey to plan our forest fairytale wedding and we were not disappointed at all! Jeffrey was able to make everything happen. The tables were even set up early so the venue space could be decorated way ahead of schedule and it just made for the most stress free wedding I could have ever imagined. All of our guests complimented how amazing everything was. It was truly a dream come true!We worked with Jeffrey to plan our forest fairytale wedding and we were not disappointed at all!

Beautiful Outdoor Space
We loved the cathedral of trees setting for our ceremony, it was perfect for us and for the photos we had envisioned. Definitely would recommend couples having their ceremony at this site if they are going for the outdoorsy magical vibes especially because of the twinkle lights above. Our coordinator Kanak made sure everything on their end was set up prior to our ceremony and in a timely manner. She was responsive and helpful answering any questions or concerns we had as well.

Thanksgiving Wedding
booked our ceremony over 2 years before our wedding, throughout the two years the original person we booked with changed and we never received communication about this until we reached out again. The ceremony component and planning were quite smooth, with paperwork and meetings. Rehearsal was also okay, too bad there is no evening lighting as it got dark at 630pm and was too dark to practice. The day of coordination was good, no hiccups or questions.

August 3 Wedding - Beautiful Location Among the Trees
A great big thank you to our event manager and her team! We held our wedding ceremony in August at the Cathedral of Trees location. The venue was spectacular and exactly what we had envisioned for our ceremony. It was a bit hot in August, but luckily, barely any bugs at all. We had a fantastic time here and our ceremony was a great success!
The beautiful scenery was a given, considering the location, but it was thanks to our event manager and her team that made it perfect. We had full day and tight schedule. When it came down to the wire, we realized that we forgot the bouquet coming from our morning ceremonies. Our first look was saved for the walk down the aisle. It was when I had lined up and basically ready to start the ceremony, that I received a call from my frantic sounding wife, stating that she forgot the bouquet. I had tried reassuring her that we'll just go without it. Luckily, our bridesmaids were quicker thinkers than I was, and brought up the issue to our event manager, which she then effortlessly whipped up a very professional looking bouquet from flowers that she scavenged with what she had around the building. So it came as surprise, not only how gorgeous she looked when she had walked down the aisle, but also that she came with a gorgeous bouquet of flowers! The bouquet honestly turned out more beautiful than our original one.
The team at Kortright was very accommodating. The process leading up to the day was overall smooth, communication was great, and we're so glad to mark this milestone at Kortright. We're so grateful to our event manager, Kanak, and her team! It was an absolute pleasure working with her. Thanks again, and we appreciate everything you've done for us!

Amazing experience - August 2024 Wedding
Our wedding at Kortright was nothing short of perfection! From the moment we toured the beautiful outdoor grounds and indoor spaces, we knew it was the one. The venue is absolutely breathtaking, with stunning forest greenery, amazing balcony overlooking a valley, bright and cozy indoor reception area, classy ‘glass house’ outside, and a romantic atmosphere. It really set the perfect tone for our special day.
But what truly made our experience unforgettable was the amazing staff. They were attentive, professional, and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. While there were a few hiccups like ensuring a kids camp was out of the venue before the start of our wedding, almost everything came together without any snags.
A huge shoutout to our incredible event coordinator, Jeffrey Tsang. Jeffrey was great to work with—his attention to detail, creative ideas, and calm demeanour made the entire planning process stress-free. On the day of the wedding, he orchestrated everything, ensuring that we and our guests were well taken care of and all of our questions/concerns answered.
If you're looking for a venue with a magical outdoor feel and where you'll feel supported by an outstanding team, look no further. We can't recommend this place, the staff, and especially Jeffrey Tsang enough! Our wedding day wonderful, thanks to them.Our wedding at Kortright was nothing short of perfection!

Dream venue for a forest wedding!
We had our wedding at Kortright this summer and we couldn’t be happier with our day. Kortright was the perfect venue for us and our 110 guests. Our dream was to get married in the woods and at Kortright we had exactly that. Kanak was amazing to work with and she helped iron out every detail, from ensuring we could have an outdoor ceremony and indoor/outdoor reception, accommodating the complex dietary restrictions of our group, and helping us customize all the little details of our day to ensure neither my husband or I were stressed. Our wedding was truly the happiest day and the peaceful environment of Kortright, and the friendly staff, helped make it all possible. Our family and friends had the best time and keep telling us how much they loved the venue and the food. We can’t recommend this venue highly enough!We had our wedding at Kortright this summer and we couldn’t be happier with our day. Kortright was the perfect venue for us and our 110 guests.

Sept 2024 Wedding
Having a wedding among the trees is unique compared to the usual gardens and golf courses. The ceremony area and other facilities are beautiful, and there is plenty of forest around to get wedding photos.
The planning process was easy. The provided forms were clear about the available choices. The execution on the day of was professional. Even though some of the setup was different than we had asked, they immediately fixed it as soon as we brought it to their attention.
For the reception food, we got lots of great feedback all around. Since we had lots of Chinese people at the wedding, we chose the Chinese fusion menu. Kortright also did a great job at accommodating anyone with vegetarian diets.
Good venue. We hope to return one day as a guest.Having a wedding among the trees is unique compared to the usual gardens and golf courses. The ceremony area and other facilities are beautiful, and there is plenty of forest around to get wedding photos.

Wedding of our dreams!
Weddings can be stressful with planning and the nerves on the big day. Our wedding at Kortright could not have gone smoother. Jeffrey was our point of contact and was always available for any of our questions. We had a video meeting with him and exchanged many emails. He was present for our rehearsal (and answered many of our families questions), along with our wedding day. The food and service were amazing! We got married 2 months ago (July) and still have guests telling us how impressed they are. Now for the venue … we could not have picked a better location. STUNNING! We had our ceremony in the cathedral of trees, cocktails in the glass house, reception inside the forest gallery and evening dancing/party back outside at the glass house. Pictures cannot do justice. Thank you again Jeffrey and the whole Kortright team!Weddings can be stressful with planning and the nerves on the big day. Our wedding at Kortright could not have gone smoother.
