Beautiful Venue

We truly could not have asked for a better venue for our wedding!

From the very beginning, working with Lori was an absolute treat. She was always incredibly responsive, accommodating and flexible throughout the entire planning process. One of the things we appreciated most about Bergthal was how much freedom we were given to make the wedding feel like ours. So many venues have strict rules around what you can and can’t do, whereas we always felt like we had the autonomy to bring our ideas to life. As someone who had a LOT of ideas and details haha, this was such a dream!

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and having access to the chapel, outdoor space and reception hall allowed us to have our entire wedding in one place while still having each part of the day feel different. We were also incredibly lucky to have a beautiful dry lightning storm in the evening, and being surrounded by the open landscape gave us some of the most amazing wedding photos we could have ever hoped for.

Our guests had an amazing time, the venue looked absolutely beautiful on our wedding day, and we are so happy we chose Bergthal Event Centre. We have so many incredible memories there now and would absolutely recommend it to other couples looking for a beautiful venue with a lot of flexibility to truly make their wedding their own.

The only heads up to couples we would like to pass along is this a very much complete DIY wedding, we worked with approximately 20 vendors including HMUA, rentals, DJ, photobooth etc. We also ended up renting a refrigerated trailer and bringing a deep freeze to hold all food, drinks and ice. It all worked out in the end but a lot of work leading up to the day.

With that being said, it was worth it 100%. Thank you Lori and Bergthal team!

Bergthal Event Centre

We are so pleased to have had our wedding here at Bergthal. The venue is intimate but still spacious. Offering both ceremony and reception spaces. Madelyne was professional and so accommodating to all our requests. We were so happy to work with someone so kind and diligent to help make our day special. Highly recommend Bergthal, as the space can be multiple purpose and not just for weddings!
