A fairytale wedding

From the first moment we visited the pavilion for our first walk around to the moment leaving after our wedding was over, we were so happy and grateful with the service we were provided at the pavilion! The email correspondence back-and-forthwas fantastic and all the coordinators where so professional and on top of everything! I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding at the most perfect venue! We had the most elegant and romantic wedding and if that is what you want this is the right venue! Everything was so high class and the value was just perfect! The food was amazing and all our guest had nothing but good things to say! I highly recommend the pavilion for your dream wedding!

An absolute dream venue!

Stanley Park Pavilion was our #1 choice of venue before we even began looking and we are so happy it's where we ended up getting married. It was the perfect location to showcase Vancouver to our many out-of-town guests and the inside is a great blank canvas (all white) for whatever décor/theme you want. The staff worked with us to bring our vision to life and were very accommodating for certain things we needed (special handicap accessibility, dietary restrictions, etc.) Our guests have had nothing but good things to say about the venue and it was the same for us. It's not a "budget" venue (although not restrictively expensive either); however, the money we spent was 100% worth it.

Perfect Venue

I have nothing but incredible things to say about having our wedding at Stanley Park Pavilion. They made the day so easy with all the help they provided throughout the planning process, and the wedding day. The venue itself is so classy, and requires little décor to look stunning. The staff was so helpful in making sure everything ran smoothly, that it made for a stressfree day. Everyone attending the wedding raved about the venue and food!

I had the pleasure of shooting a wedding at Stanley Park Pavilion back in the Spring. What an INCREDIBLE venue! They have recently undergone a huge overhaul of the building and the results are beyond gorgeous! The staff was always very courteous and helpful and the food was to die for! I sincerely hope to shoot more events at this wonderful venue! **Sunflower Photography**

Vivian, Stacey and Chef Nicholas looked after our wedding to every detail. From the tasting to the big day we knew we were in good hands. The venue of course is a Vancouver gem! Very pleased with the classy refurbishment. The crisp white theme made our wedding photos really pop and the colours in the park gave an 'enchanted' feel. We were made to feel very special and our guests were blown away. Thank you Stanley Park Pavilion!
