    Beautiful Location

    The Boathouse was gorgeous and the location was fantastic, all of our guests loved the venue! It was easy for our vendors to set up and take down their equipment. It was easy for us to reserve, pay, and communicate our desired layout with their provided floor plans. They even had access to a playground outside that the kids enjoyed.

    Beautiful Venue & Friendly Staff

    Our wedding reception took place at the UBC Boathouse in October 2023. The venue is gorgeous and offers stunning views of the sunset. The staff at UBC Boathouse are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Shivani and Amelia were very kind and helpful and provided recommendations for vendors and layouts.

    Gorgeous venue

    If you want a venue with outdoor ceremony by the water. Then an indoor reception with beautiful wooden beams and windows, this is the place! Parking can be a challenge and sharing common spaces with rowers was busy, but we had no big issues! The groomsmen were even chatting with the rowers sharing their fried chicken. Everyone was so kind.

    Beautiful View with Intimate Setting

    UBC boathouse is super organized and the staff is helpful in making the event planning so much easier. The view is absolutely stunning, and intimate which makes this venue the best choice for a small to medium sized wedding.

    Beautiful Venue

    We absolutely loved working with UBC Boathouse. Not only is the venue beautiful and doesn't need much decor, the staff was responsive, friendly and so incredibly helpful when we had to move our wedding date. Highly recommend!

    Beautiful!

    Just had our wedding here, and all we heard all night was how beautiful our venue was! Not only are the views incredible, but the room itself is gorgeous too. Staff were always quick to respond to my many questions, and they pulled off flipping the room from ceremony to reception in lightning speed during cocktail hour.
