We held our wedding at Studio 96 - both the ceremony and reception - and were so pleased with every aspect of it. Sylvia was awesome to work with, a very clear communicator she helped walk us through many of the details and coordinated with our other vendors to make the day run incredibly smoothly. The venue itself is beautiful, with all sorts of small areas with comfortable seating to have quiet moments, and the perfect sized dance floor and main hall to party it up. Studio 96 was one of the stars of our wedding day, and we would absolutely recommend it as a wedding venue.
Studio96's reply:
Again, heartfelt congratulations to you and Kim! It was an honour
and joy to help you with your wedding planning. The ceremony in the lounge was a great choice and a seamless flow into the Main Hall evening celebration. Stir catering and Revolution were wonderful additions to accompany your wonderful wedding day. Wishing you only love and dearness in your years together.

A beautiful venue! (Ceremony and Reception)
This venue is unbelievably beautiful. It was the perfect size for our 96 guest list (they can accommodate more). It has beautiful architectural arches, a fake 'stained-glass' frame to allow you to project a picture on the wall, and lots of bohemian and eclectic mirrors and furniture to give it a comfortable and intimate feel. We immediately knew we wanted our wedding here as soon as we saw it. Sylvia was our venue manager-she gave us a lot of advice when needed and knew the ins and outs on events, which we appreciated in the wedding preparations and planning. She was like our wedding planner, and that it important to keep in mind when booking this venue. It made the rentals/catering/sound/decorating/liquor-bartending planning that much easier for us.
I know that our guests also loved the venue. It makes a nice impression-nice lobby, beautiful double door entrance (allowing privacy before the bride walks through), lots of space for a dance floor, an original brickwall basement for cocktail/appetizers while the main floor is being flipped for the reception. The washrooms are very modern and new, updated air-conditioning, and they provide a bose sound system for us to use for the ceremony and reception (just plugged in with my laptop playlists).
The weather was luckily rain-free, so we were able to take pictures right outside and the lighting was very nice with the trees/bushes in the background. Borden park is super close and we were able to take wedding pictures there.
We don't regret paying the extra money to have the wedding here (I don't take that lightly, since I know that there are cheaper places than this one). We wanted a venue that allowed us to have both the ceremony and reception in one place, and the ease of doing both here was seamless. We highly recommend this location!
Studio96's reply:
Dear Angie & Gil,
It was an honour to be part of your wedding day. I so enjoyed getting to know you both and help organize all the little details to bring your dream wedding day into reality! It was lovely to see you change into your different traditional outfits during the evening bringing cultures together and dancing the night away. I will remember you and your families dearly. Enjoy your new bond, and enjoy one another always!

It was the Ceremony of my dreams
There are no words to describe how absolutely amazing Diana is and how breathtaking Studio 96 is. We fell in love with this venue the moment we walked through the door. It is a hidden Gem in Edmonton! Diana was responsive to any questions we had and she helped make our day go off without a hitch. The decor in Studio 96 is stunning and it makes the venue feel so romantic and chic. All of our guest have told us how they all loved the venue. Studio 96 was the best vendor we booked for our wedding and I couldn't be more happier with how our day turned out. Thanks Diana and Studio 96 for the amazing memories you helped us create

Perfect Edmonton Venue
We had our wedding at Studio 96 in March 2018. I cannot say enough good things about the venue and the head Coordinator Diana. Our wedding was absolutely perfect there. It is such a unique venue, with ample parking for guests. When booking a wedding at the Studio, you can setup the night before, and pack up the next morning. We had both the ceremony and reception at the same place, and Diana and her team took care of the entire room flip. The space is perfect for an intimate setting, and has great sound to have a great dance party into the evening! The bar setup is really good and provides ample space. The downstairs is all exposed brick and a great backdrop for photos. We absolutely loved working with Diana, she made our day absolutely perfect! We have heard nothing but wonderful feedback from our guests, many of which even mentioned how lovely Diana was to get to know during our wedding weekend! Thank you to the entire Studio 96 team for making our wedding so perfect for us!
Studio96's reply:
hi Lindsey,
Thank you so much for such a beautiful review! We really appreciate it.
I will also share it with Diana. Yes, we all agree- Diana is fabulous to work with.
Congratulations on your recent Wedding! Wishing you a lifetime of love, happiness, tenderness and warmth!
Regards,
Amy

Perfect wedding venue - flexible, helpful and unique
Our wedding at Studio 96 was amazing from top to bottom. The venue is gorgeous and Sylvia and her team are professional, warm, and so knowledgeable. We had the most perfect day in the most lovely setting.
Studio 96 looks after everything on the day of, and I had complete confidence in every aspect of the day going off without a hitch (which is quite unusual for me because I am a real worrier). Knowing that my husband and I, or our friends and families did not need to be rushing around setting things up added to our enjoyment tenfold. Leading up to the wedding day, Sylvia meets with you to plan everything, offering great suggestions and reminders, and then helps to organize drop-off and set-up of various vendors. Overall, she made sure that we got to spend our time and energy with each other and our guests and that was exactly what we wanted.
Studio96's reply:
Loved your stunning vision for your day dear Raina & Ryan! The bookmark name tags were a great touch. It was your warm hearts and lovely togetherness that made it so easy to help you plan your wedding day. Would love to see your wedding photos when ready, feel free to post any as well. Thank you both and wishing you long and happy days together!

The perfect wedding venue
A day we will always cherish...had our wedding here on June 1st and it was truly magical. Thank you to Sylvia and the other staff at Studio 96, for creating such a special place for so many memories to be made.
If you are planning a wedding, this is a must see venue. The decor is so beautiful, so that's already taken care of. We had our ceremony upstairs, then a cocktail hour downstairs while the staff flipped the room for our reception. Our guests loved being able to have everything in one location, it made it easier for everyone.
Sylvia made everything come together on the day of so that we didn't have to worry about anything. She did a wonderful job coordinating everything so that the day went smoothly. It was much appreciated.
Wish we could do it all again :)
Studio96's reply:
Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to write! It was our honour to be part of your wedding day, and lovely to have gotten to know you both. Kelsey & Bryce, wishing you both a wonderful forever together.

Studio 96 - absolutely outstanding!
Studio 96 was an amazing venue! We were able to have the ceremony, picture session and reception all in one location without feeling cramped - absolutely perfect for an Edmonton winter wedding. Sylvia was very knowledgeable and came prepared with details, helpful ideas and suggestions. On the day of our wedding, Sylvia was there to help things move along. Couldn’t have done this without her help. All our guests had only compliments. It was an incredible day. Thank you, Sylvia and Studio 96
Studio96's reply:
It was an honour to be part of your wedding day! Wishing you both sweet togetherness always in you bond and life together.
Thank you!
Sylvia
