We had our September 2018 wedding here and couldn't of been happier with choosing Brock House as our venue. Everyone you will work with here is a real professional - we had a great experience all the way from booking to planning to the day itself and the follow-up billing afterward.
Brock House had thought of tiny details I would never have thought of. The food was excellent and filling. There is a reason why this venue is one of the most popular in the City - and they live up to their reputation. We really appreciated how much Brock House 'comes with' - you don't have to worry about any rentals whatsoever. We brought in our own decor but beyond that had very little 'clean-up' to do at the end of the night. This was really important to us and I was surprised when venue shopping how difficult it was to find a venue with everything but still in an intimate setting (beyond hotel ballrooms etc.).
What really made the day was the on-site service manager, Leslie, without him I am sure our day would not have gone as smoothly as it did. Thank you Leslie, thank you Brock House!!

Our wedding was more than perfect
The Brock House was perfect, the location is amazing! Right off Jericho beach with a view of the ocean and mountains in the background. Everything was set up for us and required minimal set up on our end! The food was very delicious, and table service was fast and efficient! With the Brock House you're able to customize the menu and they have options for all dietary requirements, I am vegan and my husband is gluten free and we were able to customize our menu to fit us perfectly! Everyone said it was the best food they've ever had! Very impressed! Our day was so perfect! The only thing I would say is that it can be expensive, the little things added up we had to change a few things last minute but it was worth it!

Fabulous venue
When my husband and I first visit the venue we knew it was the one.
We met with Melissa and she walked us through all the offers they had and help us understand what we wanted.
Melissa is friendly, helpful and very professional with a personal touch.
It was a pleasure organising our special day with Melissa who proved to be very reliable and supportive.
As I work in the industry I am very peaky and opinionated. Melissa was very responsive and accommodated every request to the best of her possibilities.
The venue itself is stunning, the food is absolutely phenomenal and the service very professional.
The whole team made our special day truly SPECIAL.

A heartfelt thank you to all of the Brock House catering team. From the multiple planning conversations with Kaitlyn and Hikari, through to the efficient and professional service and kitchen staff on our wedding day, we felt very well taken care of at this charming venue.
Our guests had a lovely time, were delighted with the space (and gorgeous view!) available to us, and everyone complimented the food - everyone loved how fresh the food both looked and tasted.
We couldn’t have been happier with our wedding at Brock House and highly recommend this venue for your wedding.

Beautiful, Professional Venue
Our wedding was absolutely beautiful at Brock House. The location was incredible and the tent was amazing with the lights and chandeliers inside. The Brock House staff were extremely responsive and easy to work with. We made all of our plans with them over email and phone from the opposite side of the continent and it was no problem. The food was great--we got compliments from all the guests on how delicious it was (especially the dim sum bar). And the service from the staff--both the servers and bartenders--were great. There were no lineups for drinks and no one was left waiting for dishes to arrive at their tables.
We highly recommend this venue. The only thing we suggest you do is not book their DJ. Brock House says only one-or-two special DJs are allowed to use their sound system, but the DJ just set up their own speakers anyway. The DJ we used from Brock House, Xtreme Events, did not mic the event very well, brought bad speakers, and did not know the event timeline or music we wanted. Definitely just BYO DJ. But don't let that turn you off from the venue!
Just as an FYI, Brock House has a 1.5 hour set-up window. Most vendors you will talk to will know this and can work around this, but it is best to make sure your vendors are aware of this restriction and are comfortable working within it.
Brock House was an incredible venue and made our day the most special one of our lives. We couldn't imagine having it anywhere else!

Brock House Restaurant's reply:
Hi Julia and Justin!
Congratulations to you both on tying the knot this past weekend! It has been a pleasure planning with you both and getting to know you during this process. I am so happy to hear that you had a wonderful day and that we were able to make this process for you super seamless, even from across the continent!
I will pass along our kind words to our Banquet Staff and Chef – they all work so hard to ensure that you and your guests have the best experience possible with us and I know they’ll love hearing that their service surpassed your expectations!
Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding Dan and X-Treme Event Group – I am very sorry to hear that the DJ which was provided for your wedding day was not properly prepared for the events taking place and provided a sound system that was not well equipped. Our intentions of having an exclusive DJ are to help monitor and alleviate the noise levels throughout the event as we are located in a residential neighborhood. Although some people may be alarmed by this policy, we want them to feel confident that they are in the hands of a company that will provide a high level of service that is consistent with our own. I am very sorry to hear that this is not the service you received and beyond appreciate that you do not want this feedback to reflect on Brock House Restaurant as a whole. As we move forward throughout this season and search for better ways to improve our events, we will keep this feedback in mind.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. Congratulations again on behalf of our team – we wish you all the best on this next adventure together!
Sincerely,
Kaitlyn
Catering & Events Coordinator
Brock House Restaurant
