Perfect wedding in paradise

Robin and her team went above and beyond to ensure our day went well. They were always there to answer any questions and put our minds at ease. The catering staff was very friendly and worked very hard. We are so thankful and happy we chose such a stunning venue as RBG for our big day.

Wonderful Experience

Robin, Deanna and their teams were absolutely wonderful to work with. We had a specific vision for our wedding to be a celebration of both of our cultures and they were able to make that happen. Our friends and family are still talking about how much they enjoyed the food!

Hi Katie, on behalf of RBG, it was my pleasure to help you plan your special day!
I wish you and Robb many years of happiness, maybe we will see you around in the gardens now that you have a membership.
Don't forget, we do baby showers too! LOL

Beautiful venue. Amazing staff

I have to start by saying Brooklyn and Robin played a big part in making our wedding wonderful. Brookly’s energy is just what I needed to ease any jitters I had that day.

The gardens are absolutely beautiful and with the renovations they recently have made it picture perfect.

Amazing!!!

I had my wedding reception at the RBG in July of 2017 and I am so glad that it was suggested to us by a good friend! I would highly recommend this venue! It is beautiful!
Robin was amazing to work with and we emailed back and forth almost weekly it seemed. She was always quick to respond to any questions I had. Her and the team made my day so so special!
The food was amazing!!! We had nothing but compliments on the service and food itself! Because we did not want a traditional sit down wedding, my husband and I opted for a cocktail reception. There are so many options and packages you can build on which made it so easy for us! We had Hors d'oeuvres being served throughout the entire evening along with a taco and poutine station. These were definite hits with our guests!
Our pictures turned out beautifully and were so convenient as you have access to the gardens for the duration of your reception, as do your guests!
Another great aspect is you receive a one year membership to the RBG after your wedding!!!
I was extremely happy with how everything turned out and came together! It was such an amazing experience to plan my wedding with Robin and her team, and I could not have wished for a more beautiful day!!!!!

Beautiful venue

We had our reception in the Peter and Camilla Dalglish Atrium and it’s such a stunning space. I loved how we didn’t need to give too much thought to décor because of the beautiful green living walls, glass walls, and glass ceiling. We used the living walls as backdrops for our Polaroid table. It definitely didn’t feel like your typical wedding venue. The food and service were excellent, it was comparably priced to other similar options, and for the most part, the venue was pretty accommodating with our requests leading up to the day. My only note is to make sure to have a list of questions ready before you sign with them, and get answers in writing. As I have heard is the case with a lot of venues, sometimes the information you get at your first meeting doesn’t reflect what you should actually expect. Overall we are happy with the reception party and felt it was perfect.
