They can organize a ceremony in the Observatory with its stunning vantage point over the lake. The venue space is also ideal for receptions.

Services Offered
Spencer's at The Waterfront’s management is happy to welcome parties to the venue and excited to assist couples in planning their event. They allow to-be-weds to choose their own outside vendors, granting them control over their party. The staff can be on hand during the event to help set everything up and to clean up afterwards. Delicious cuisine is offered by the kitchen team with a focus on seasonal Candian produce and seafood.
The team at Spencers is phenomenal. They were professional, kind and flexible throughout our planning process, and were accommodating with the ongoing changes with Ontario's regulations. We were only allowed to have a 10 people reception due to COVID restrictions, but it felt the most normal we have felt all year! The team did a really good job at ensuring we had everything we needed, our guests were happy and everything went smoothly.
Highly recommend this venue. It is beautiful, the food is delicious and it is easy accessible if you're from Toronto.

Dream, magical wedding
We can't even begin to express how happy we are that we chose Spencer's for our wedding! The venue was absolutely beautiful, with the most perfect view of the waterfront. There were lots of different spots to take pictures. We had to lower our guest count and change our date due to COVID, and Jocelynn was so accommodating with everything from day one. She was super quick to respond to any questions we had! Our day-of coordinator, Briar, was absolutely AMAZING. She was constantly there for us and even brought us things before we even realized that we needed it! We highly recommend Spencer's to anyone, for any size wedding! Thanks Spencer's!!!!

Gorgeous venue
Having my wedding at Spencer’s at the Waterfront absolutely took my breath away the day of the wedding. It was more gorgeous than I remembered. Walking down the isle awaiting to marry the man of my dreams all while looking at the scenic waterfront views is a memory I will always cherish. I applaud and thank Jocelynn for always responding in such a timely manner. The staff were absolutely AMAZING. Even the chef out did himself; all my guests truly enjoyed their 3-course meals. The bartender was very professional and greeted my guests in a kindly manner. Overall, I have never been more pleased. This venue is not only gorgeous from the moment you walk in but you have every staff member doing such a phenomenal job.
Thank you very much for helping to create not only such a beautiful day for me but also a very memorable one.

Absolutely Amazing!!
Highest of recommendations to Spencer's and Pearle Hospitality.
They went above and beyond to make our special day happen - on April 30th - during Covid.
We were married on our front step, with 5 people present, minding social distancing (Burlington Bylaw Officer approved - yes, there were two present on the street).
Jocelynn was absolutely amazing. She delivered meals for our family to us, to send with our families (who were in cars parked across the street).
The meals were absolutely amazing, and packaged individually, ensuring ingredients didn't mix, for freshness and deliciousness!
I highly recommend Spencer's and Pearle Hospitality.
They have been absolutely amazing to us during this difficult, stressful and emotional time.

Perfect!!!!
From the first meeting until our wedding day Spencer's did a phenomenal job!! The venue was absolutely stunning! We got so many compliments on the food and service! We had a lot of dietary requirements and Jocelyn and the chef's made sure they were all taken care of!
Sunny was amazing the day of making sure everything ran smoothly, taking care of the small things, keeping me hydrated with water and champagne and reminding us to eat!!!
The view was gorgeous with the floor to ceiling glass windows it gave us an outsider wedding feel.
When things calm down and the world is back to normal I would recommend this venue for your dream wedding
After planning weddings and events throughout Toronto since moving to Canada, Jocelynn began as a coordinator at Whistle Bear Golf Club before moving to Spencer's as a Special Events Consultant. Working along side couples as they plan the beginning of their lives together, is one of the reasons she loves her job so much. Love, happiness, family and joy are among some of Joce's favourite things, and the ability to help her couples incorporate each of those into their big day means the world to her.
