Aimee M. Married on 14/01/2023It was the most perfect day
We absolutely LOVED our whole experience with Cellar 52!
Our coordinator Amanda was such a sweetheart and even came to the rescue last minute with our name places. 😅🤍
Everything was taken care of which removed so much of the stress for not only myself but my wedding party as well. One of the best parts was just chilling with my people, listening to tunes and eating some delicious foods!

Still in the talks with this venue, hoping to come to a resolution. Will update my review if my current situation is solved. But as of right now, they agave scammed me out my money and are refusing to let my wedding happen. -

We are getting married next year, but Cellar 52 has been a pleasure to work with thus far! I can't wait to work with them in a more personal manner as our date approaches! -

Jessica J. Married on 04/08/2022Amazing venue and exceptional team for an intimate and beautiful wedding!
We choose Cellar52 for our wedding day as the perfect intimate, romantic, and beautiful space. From our first tour with Trella to our final day with our Coordinator Emily running the show, we experienced nothing but kind, professional and attentive service. We loved the option of booking their room suites (Hotel 52) for day-of getting ready and staying in afterwards. The air conditioning in both the hotel and main venue is not nearly as strong as you’d like it for a summer wedding, but even through the sweaty day the team at Cellar52 was amazing! They were professional, the venue was clean and set up properly, our day of coordinator Emily was pleasant and on top of everything and the day was amazing, even despite the fact that it rained! The team is always willing to accommodate requests, including sparkling water and an extra entre with the groom’s meal! We cannot recommend Cellar52 enough for your special day! -

We had our wedding here in July 2022, and they were wonderful to work with. They were great at helping us plan and organize our day. They were great at communicating throughout the process. On the day of, they set up and dealt with everything, so we could just enjoy getting ready. They made sure we were taken care of all night! -

Alannah W. Married on 26/06/2022Beautiful Venue, Amazing Coordinators & Staff
We just had our wedding at Cellar 52 on June 26, 2022 after having to postpone from 2021. Cellar 52 was absolutely a dream to work with. The girls are so lovely, helpful, organized and accommodating. We felt supported every step of the way and they helped our dream wedding become a reality. From the big things to the tiny personalized details. We chose the riverside package and the ceremony was STUNNING. Our guests had so much fun on the patio cocktail hour and they could not stop raving about the food at the reception (this is not your average wedding food let me tell you!). What we loved is that everything is on site including bridal suites to make the day stress free. Everything went seamlessly the day of because of the amazing coordinators and crew at Cellar 52. 10/10 would recommend Cellar 52 to any future couple looking to get married. Wish we could do this day over and over again! -

My husband and I got married at Cellar52 in December 2021. We had a great experience overall!

Jennifer P. Married on 20/08/2021They literally made our day perfect
We instantly knew when we were looking for a wedding venue that Cellar 52 was the most promising. Cellar 52 got back to us first, offered us a tour immediately, and very generously even gave us a bottle of champagne at the end of our tour as a congratulations gift! We went home right away and got our money together to secure our date. They were the only venue who already had a Covid plan in place and lenient contract terms in the event of a lockdown.
From having their own catering company, to including staff, tips, plates, tables etc. we loved that we had a full turn-key package with them! Truly leaving it to the experts to take care of us.
Trella, Stephanie, Kristi, Jenny, and the entire team know exactly what to do to make a couple feel valued. Never had they missed an email or forgotten a detail. You can see how passionate and positive the whole team vibe is by their work ethic and zest!
We felt so loved and taken care of on our day, and every other couple we’ve talked to who got married there has said the same.
Literally the whole day went off without a hitch. Everyone had us covered where we didn’t even realize we needed them!

Meet the team
We are Trella and Stephanie, the friendly faces behind Cellar 52 in St. Jacobs. It has always been a dream of ours to operate our own event venue! We promise to provide you with our expertise and advice every step of the way through your planning process! We didn't end up in the wedding world by chance, it is by choice and success. We are excited to share that with you.
We are two very best friends who love food, wine and travel. We were room mates at Wilfrid Laurier, where we completed our Business degrees together. We always had the drive to work for ourselves & together. We have that once in a lifetime type friendship, you don't find it everywhere and we don't take it for granted.
We gained our experience in this industry from our restaurants but our passion has shifted to catering, weddings and events.
The corporate world really opened up our eyes to creativity and pushing boundaries (thank you, our corporate clients). Companies trusted us to plan, organize and cater some of their most elite events. It was fun and challenging! These perfectly planned and buzz worthy events pushed us to move into the wedding world, and we just fell in love with it. (yes, we fell in love with the love of weddings).
We know your wedding will be one of the best, most important days or your life and it is an honour to be trusted and so closely involved. We do not take this responsibility lightly, and are committed to using our vast experience and attention to detail to curate a day you wont forget. It is our personal mission and company standard to ensure your wedding is everything your ever imagined from your walk down the aisle to the late night dance floor.
We are committed to you, our clients. You are forever family for us, and we can't wait to make your dreams come true.
We love what we do, and we hope that it shows.
Can't wait to meet you,
Trella and Steph
