Exactly what we Wanted!

Elle is an absolutely beautiful venue and the flow of the space is perfect! We loved having everything in one place, it made our wedding day a seamless experience! Every aspect of the venue is gorgeous - the morning of suite is large and bright, the outdoor ceremony location has a beautiful backdrop and lots of space, the cocktail hour on the patio is cozy and fun, and the ballroom itself is stunning. It has lots of space, huge windows, and helpful features like a water dispenser and 360 bar.

The whole property is very well maintained and perfect for photos! We and all of our guests enjoyed making use of their flowers, trees, and scenic backdrops (gazebo, water fountain, river, fields) for photos!

Elle, and especially our day of coordinator Piper, helped to make our day unforgettable and so much fun! The built in coordination helped us to plan our day and keep things on track. When we had a bit of a cake-related emergency, Piper went above and beyond to help us recover - so much so, that no one knew that there was ever an emergency, it all looked so intentional.

We would absolutely recommend Elle!!

Amazing wedding venue and lovely experience

We had our wedding at Elle by Stella in early September 2023. The venue was set up beautifully and everything went according to plan. Our guests really enjoyed the food (it was more unique and flavourful than generic venue food) and our coordinator, Paige, was super organized and accommodating. We would recommend this venue and the Stella Co. team to anyone!

Stunning Venue

We got married at Elle Oct 2023. Every part of our wedding experience was such a dream! Our coordinator, Madison, made every single one of our ideas come to life. She was so helpful in making decisions and made sure that we didn't forget anything in the planning process. The food was incredible and we are still dreaming about it weeks later. The venue is stunning and had all of our guests swooning. We could not be more thankful for Elle and the team for making our day one to remember. Would definitely recommend a wedding at Elle for anyone looking to have a stunning day and a no stress day!

Our dream wedding

We are still beaming over our experience at Elle by Stella!! From our tour with Stephanie, we knew we had found our wedding venue - bright, airy, modern and elegant with gorgeous indoor and outdoor spaces. Not only is the location stunning, but the process of booking and planning was incredibly seamless. The Stella Co team and our absolutely wonderful coordinator Madison were so helpful - we were sent so many resources, tips and cues to ensure nothing was missed during the planning process, while also having complete autonomy over all the decisions. Our wedding day went on without a hitch and the extra touches and details from Madison and the team made us feel so special. We cannot express how grateful we are; our day was PERFECT!

Amazing and reliable

We recently had Stella co./ Gilt catering provide services for our wedding and I can hands down say they were the best vendor we had a pleasure of working with. They are great at keeping in touch as well as super accommodating and so helpful through our entire wedding journey. The service was great and the food... absolutely incredible!! We had a back yard venue and they were on top of keeping the food hot and fresh the whole time and the amount of guests commenting on the flavour of every single meal served was phenomenal. We cannot recommend them enough ! Jenny was our catering coordinator and fantastic to say the least. It's a lot to plan a wedding in general and Jenny was so helpful with everything even with recommendations that didn't have to do with their catering portion! All in all 10 out of 10 experience !

Most beautiful venue

I highly recommend booking your wedding with Stella, either Elle or Cellar 52. We had the most intimate special outdoor ceremony, and the venue space doesn't feel cramped for dancing. I had the wedding of my absolute dreams at Elle by Stella

Perfect June wedding with AMAZING coordination team

We had our wedding here in June 2022. Despite being one of the first weddings at the new venue, everything went perfectly. Gillian, our coordinator, made sure everything ran smoothly on the day of. The team sends detailed questionnaire's out during the planning process to make sure we did not miss a single detail.

We got so many compliments on the food. It was absolutely delish. We had the salmon, braised ribs and Thai green curry on our menu. The food was expedited quickly and efficiently.

The grounds are AMAZING for a spring/summer/fall wedding. So much space and beautiful gardens and vines.

The building is very modern now that it is newly renovated. Cute, unique, touches all around the place like the flower wall paper and modern couches, and the flower installment above the head table is GORGEOUS.

Thank you so much for making our dream day come true! Would recommend this venue and the team to everyone. The team and owners are well experienced in the field and it really shows.

Best of the best!

The Stella CO. crew were the only venue we ever even considered - from our first meeting with them, we knew we did not need to look anywhere else! Not only are the venues absolutely beautiful, the team is so easy to work with. They made planning a wedding in Covid completely stress-free and seamless. Food + drink was also incredible. We absolutely loved our planning process and had the most incredible wedding day!

Our dream day with The Stella Co.

The Stella Co. was a dream to work with, from start to finish. The team was insightful, knowledgeable and kind and were able to execute our vision perfectly! We would use Stella Co. to celebrate everything and anything in the future - thank you for the perfect day!
