Outstanding experience!

Our wedding went so smoothly. The venue is beautiful and private. The staff were also incredibly kind and helpful. Julia was our day-of coordinator and I can't say enough about how helpful, caring and calm she was, she really made sure our day was perfect. I would definitely recommend this venue to any of my friends or family looking or an Ottawa wedding venue.

Great day at Orchard View

They really worked with us to give us exactly what we wanted. They postponed our COVID wedding with no extra fees and even allowed us to use the property for a mini pre wedding vows ceremony with no extra charge. Beautiful venue and staff!!

So wonderful!

This is going to sound less like a review, and more like a love story, as we have nothing but appreciation for the incredible service provided by Julia and Adam from Orchard View. Julia and Adam did everything in their power to accommodate us in the planning of our wedding day. We got engaged in August 2021, discovered Orchard View in September, and were married there in July of the following year. Though the 11 months of reviewing and considering details and options could have been daunting, it was made a breeze with the expertise of Adam and Julia.

We had the pleasure of attending the Taste Testing Day in March 2022, four months before our wedding, and that is when the realities and possibilities of getting married in this space came to life for us. While we loved the venue, that day we got to experience being wined and dined by the team, and it was so lovely. The food was delicious, the ambiance was so nice, and the kindness and attention to detail by the staff was exceptional. We were treated so well, despite being in a room full of people, and were confident that our guests would get a similar experience.

More details were confirmed over the months to come, and we applaud Julia and Adam for keeping calm in spite of all the moving pieces. We reconsidered our options several times, our guest count was constantly evolving as the pandemic restrictions tightened and released. They were so incredibly patient as we discussed how we could accommodate our friends and families, and made sure that we didn’t forget about each other in the midst of it.

The day of our wedding, we could not have hoped for better. They were able to make space for the bride and groom (us) to get ready and our entourage. They were supportive of our family, friends, photographer, DJ, and decorators. We remember seeing Julia helping set place cards along with the decoration team, while Adam weaved in and out of the kitchen and our wedding hall. They were clearly busy, but ALWAYS had time for us and for our last-minute questions. And they were always so calm. While the day had its stressors, none of it came from Orchard View or its staff. We lacked nothing, and they did everything that they could to ensure that our day was glorious. And it was.

Throughout the planning, it remained evident that Adam and Julia from Orchard View had our best intention in mind. For example, we had a lot of discussions with regards to drink options for the venue. While we wanted to be generous with our guests, we did not want to break the bank. Adam and Julia were both very much willing to examine options for us, and ultimately, we were able to find an arrangement that worked for all of us. The best honeymoon surprise was getting an email from Orchard View saying that we were going to be REIMBURSED because we saved so much on the bar tab. Adam and Julia are honest people, and vendors true to their word, truly looking out for us.

Now, we have been married for four months, and still look back on our wedding day fondly. While there have been several wedding planning lessons learned, getting married at Orchard View is one of the sweetest elements of our journey, and one that we would change. Huge thank you to Adam and Julia from Orchard View, as well as to all the staff that made our wedding day so precious. We wish you nothing but the best!

Absolutely Perfect!

We had to post pone our wedding twice, so dealt with Orchard View for almost 3 years by the time the wedding day arrived. They provided advice, kept us very informed on any changes, and accommodated everything we asked for. The food on the menu was EXCELLENT :) The day of the wedding, the coordinator Julia checked in on us every 30-45 mins to make sure we we’re okay!

The grounds were very well kept, newly painted building, and was perfect for photos!
It was so nice to have everything all in one spot.

Thanks Orchard View :)

Stunning venue

I loved my experience with Orchard View from start to finish. From the beginning, I REALLY didn't want a farm or barn wedding venue, and it seemed like that was the majority of options in the Ottawa area. Orchard View is a stunning garden/natural setting only 15 minutes south of the city. The value for what you get is truly amazing and the photo options are unparalleled. Summer 2021 they installed a 60'x80' tent on interlock behind the pergola which is beautiful and allowed us to have a truly Covid-safe and distanced reception. Taylor helped me through a pandemic postponement and the uncertainties leading up to our July 2021 event (with all the what-ifs and lack of clarity from government regarding re-opening). They were able to provide customized menu items, some at no extra charge even! They also completely renovated the bridal suite which is now HUGE with fantastic natural light for doing make-up.

The staff was incredible - everyone from the grounds team, to the set-up crew, to the servers and bartenders made me feel like they wanted us and our guests to have a great time, which is more than just great service. They wanted us to be there and they wanted us to enjoy ourselves.

They were also really flexible with set up and pick up. For a nominal fee, the staff packed up all the stuff we brought (and we brought A LOT) and we were able to pick it up the next day. I appreciated the obvious care the staff took with my belongings - things were carefully placed in boxes, rather than just thrown in.

I will forever recommend Orchard View for anyone planning a wedding around Ottawa. The gorgeous setting combined with the professional and supportive staff helped make our day an extremely special one!

Stunning venue

I had my wedding of 86 guests at Orchard View on Sept 15th 2019 and it was perfect! I DIY'd most of the decor so we came early to set everything up, but the ballroom is already so gorgeous it doesn't need a ton of decor! Planning the wedding was as stress free as they could make it for me, and despite being switched to a new coordinator midway through my planning, my wedding day went off without a hitch! Adam, the owner, is super friendly and accommodating. The Bridal Suite is beautiful and it was so nice being able to get ready right on site. We booked the Terrace Room, so we married under the Pergola (gorgeous) and had our reception in the smaller ballroom. It was the perfect size for our number of guests. They say it can fit up to 120, but I think anything over 100 would be pushing it. For dinner we had the Supreme of Chicken and it was SO GOOD. Like stupid good. Way better than what we were even served at our tasting. We also had a dessert trio of cheesecake, chocolate cake, and tiramisu, and that was also out of this world delicious. My only complaint is that the banquet chairs they have on site are hideous, so you'll have to rent chairs from another company or rent chair covers. It'd be nice if they had different chair options themselves that were in line with current wedding trends to save some of us DIY brides a little bit of hassle. Other than that, zero complaints. I would 100% recommend Orchard View to anyone.

Excellent venue

When looking for a venue we wanted somewhere that could accommodate our dog and was within our budget but didn't feel like a cheap place. Thankfully, we found Orchardview! The team was so quick to reply to my emails and meeting with them just solidified our decision, they were nice and helpful and it really came through they wanted to make our dream wedding come true! After signing with them, they were always in contact with us to ask if we needed help or had questions and gave us little reminders of important dates like sending invitations. They were also so accommodating for having our sog in our wedding which was a must for us. On the day of the wedding, they worked so hard for us to have a slideshow up and running that we had made but wasn't able to play - we are so greatful for their hard work on it because it made our wedding to have it up and playing! We were in the smaller of the two rooms (the rooms are separated by a soundproof divisor) and you couldn't hear the other wedding going on next door, it was wonderful! The grounds were so clean and well kept with gorgeous photo opportunities, the food very delicious, the service was excellent, the sign out front saying our names made us feel like celebrities, and the new interior renos looked amazing. I would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a memorable wedding day!
