Overall, it was a beautiful day!

The weather was beautiful, though a little warm. It felt really special having our ceremony in their newly renovated outdoor ceremony space along the River. And we were able to have a water station set up for guests to have a drink before the ceremony, due to the heat.
Having cocktail hour on the balcony was beautiful, everyone enjoyed the view! We didn’t get any of the passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour but everyone who got some seemed to enjoy them. I would definitely recommend getting one of the added food stations they have to offer!
The dinner selection was great. We upgraded one of our dinner entree options and three quarters of our guests had prime rib! Though, there was miscommunication throughout dinner and some peoples dinner was cold and my dessert was taken before I got to eat it, overall everyone had good things to say about the food. And the late night taco buffet and poutine buffet was a huge hit! Everyone loved it!!
Sunset photos were beautiful on the green, and all GCC members who passed by us throughout our day were the most polite people ever.

Overall, throughout the planning process, and through some staff changes prior to and during our wedding, the staff at GCC were polite and prompt. We appreciate their patience throughout the planning process and the effort made on our day.

Amazing venue

This venue is gorgeous and Suzanne was fantastic. The venue looked gorgeous when all was said and done (it's beautiful with no decor but the decor made it feel unique to us) and Suzanne always answered my emails in a timely fashion. We also had an indoor ceremony and the room was flipped impressively fast. I cannot say enough good things, the price included an open bar and they all went above and beyond the call of duty for everything. Have your wedding here it is a magical place with food that's to die for, guests have been messaging me for days raving about it. 10/10 would get married here a hundred times if necessary

Fantastic!

For our wedding we worked with Suzanne at the galt country club and we can’t recommend her enough. She put up with so many questions and emails and phone calls from me in the weeks leading up to our big day. Everything ran so smoothly and we were so thankful to have Suzanne there. She even looked like she was having fun and not just ‘working!’ The food was amazing, the venue was beautiful, the outdoor ceremony space was so nice and the service staff were great as well. We had no complaints about our day at all!! We would definitely recommend GCC!

September 2022

We had an amazing wedding day at GCC. It was beautiful and the staff there are so kind and helpful. Suzanne was very responsive and helpful planning the day and ensuring everything ran smoothly. The food was excellent! We didn’t get to try the appetizers but the dinner and late night pizza and poutine were delicious. We love our photos at the venue especially the ones down by the river. The bridal suite was large which is great as others I’ve seen are very small. The only hiccup we had was I don’t think they were prepared for how much our guests drink and dance (to be fair they are a wild crowd). The bar was backed up and the dance floor very hot (although it was a hot night). Overall an amazing day we had so much fun. Another plus was the social membership, we love the golf course!

Absolutely Amazing!

We just had our wedding at GCC, and it was better than I could have ever imagined! The staff were incredible and helped us so much through the day, and made everything go so smooth. But a huge thank you goes to Suzanne, for making the wedding planning so simple and had everything run like clock work that day. You took the stress away and let us enjoy the moments that we'll remember for the rest of our lives. The grounds were stunning and the outdoor ceremony was just so beautiful. All the guests were raving about how beautiful everything was. Can't thank you enough for making our special day possible!

Perfect Day

We were married at GCC on October 23, 2021. Our original venue wouldn't accommodate us with a new date when we had to postpone from 2020, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise because we could not be happier with how our wedding day went.

During the planning process, Suzanne was beyond responsive and answered all of my very many very specific questions. The rehearsal dinner was great for getting an idea of how the day would go, and the food was fantastic.

On the day of, the room for getting ready was made available as early as we needed it, and Suzanne checked in on us regularly to answer questions, and bring us drinks and lunch. At no point during the day did I feel like I had to stress about any details and everyone was incredibly accommodating to small last minute tweaks and answering questions throughout the day.

The ceremony area and the reception hall are both absolutely beautiful spaces. We heard from many guests how much they loved the venue, but most of all everyone raved about the incredible food.

I can't say enough good things about the experience and if we could do it all over again we would have booked GCC to begin with. Stunning venue, amazing food, and unbeatable service from Suzanne and the rest of the team at GCC.

Dream Wedding

We just celebrated our wedding day at the Galt Country Club after 2 postponements due to covid. I can’t even begin to explain how stressful this the whole situation was. Suzanne, the wedding coordinator was absolutely fantastic and handled everything with ease. She worked with me to ensure she met all my needs and trust me there was a lot. Suzanne was quick to respond to my emails and even called a few times to check in to see how we were doing. The venue is beautiful they recently installed a bunch of chandeliers in the room which made it even more beautiful. The staff are very friendly. The food was AMAZING
Especially the roasted beef tenderloin it was perfectly cooked. The late night table was a hit can’t go wrong with Pizza and Poutine. Hats off to the Chef. 3 Days later and we’re still receiving compliments about how good the food was. The grounds are amazing for photos we even got taken out in a golf cart. You honestly can’t beat the price for what’s included. I HIGHLY recommend this venue. Thank you Suzanne and GCC staff for making our day magical. Natasha and Robert Langendock

Great beautiful venue

This venue is a beautiful place to host a wedding and the pricing is just right! We were so excited for all the little perks the GCC staff were going to do for us leading up to the wedding and thought we were so lucky to have found such a supportive venue. The tasting was beyond delicious and the staff were so kind! Unfortunately our promised perks stopped there. There was a bit of miscommunication on what we needed to pay for outside of the wedding itself (lunch for the bridesmaids, etc.) as the way the coordinator made it sound at the initial meeting, this was to be included in our quote price. We were also told we would have a lot more support during the day than what we actually got. The event coordinator made promises to us that didn’t end up happening (getting driven back into the golf course for photos and getting some of the appetizers packaged up for us to snack on during photos). The event coordinator also told us initially that she could set up a lot of the stuff. Although I did a lot of the set up myself, she did not offer to help me during the time and instead was using my time to show the room to other couples. I would be okay with this if I was still getting the support I needed. There were also things that she told me on the day of that she would do for me that never got done (handing out the boutinieres and bouquets, setting things out between the transition of the ceremony and the reception - all our favours weren’t set out and now we’re stuck with a significant amount of left overs). The venue was beautiful and the day was amazing, however, I felt that on the day, our coordinator’s mind was elsewhere. The coordinator is so kind and was very supportive leading up the the day, but like I said, I felt like her mind was elsewhere.

Stunning location & fantastic experience

I booked with Galt Country Club in 2019 before COVID19.
The venue was very accommodating when we needed to change our date and guest list in order to adhere with provincial guidelines.
The outdoor ceremony space is lovely and makes for incredible photos!
Suzanne is an absolute pleasure to work with, and very timely in responding to inquiries! She is friendly and was incredibly helpful on the day of!
I would absolutely recommend Galt Country Club!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
