My dream venue




This venue has always been my dream place — the moment I first visited, I knew this is where I want to get married. 🌿✨ And being able to finally celebrate our day there felt like a dream come true.
From the very beginning, the team helped us so much with planning, questions, and details. But what I want to give the biggest standing ovation to is our wedding coordinator of the day, NARISA. She was absolutely incredible. Truly a gem. 💛 She handled everything with care, professionalism, and so much heart. She made sure everything ran smoothly — for us, for our guests, and even for our families. We felt so taken care of the whole time and I could really feel how much she wanted the day to go perfectly for us.
There were a few moments of miscommunication and some areas where the team felt a bit less attentive, especially towards the end after she went home. It was a disappointing in that part for me and my family specifically . But when we shared our feedback with her, she responded so professionally and respectfully, and handled everything calmly. That kind of attitude means a lot. 🌿
The stars of this review are for her and for how she represented the venue with such grace. I really hope the team can improve from the feedback we shared — because with coordination like hers, this place truly has the potential to be perfection.
Overall, it will always be a special venue in my heart, and I’m grateful I got to say “I do” in the place I’ve always dreamed of. 🤍

Wedding Nov 22, 2025

My husband and I could not recommend Swaneset enough! The venue is absolutely beautiful and the overall experience that was provided went above and beyond what we were expecting. Our Event Manager, Narisa, was extremely attentive to our needs and was constantly checking in to ensure that we were feeling comfortable with how the evening was going. Narisa also did a phenomenal job in keeping everything on track, as per the schedule. We didn't end up hiring a Day of Coordinator, and I don't feel as though it was needed because of the service that Narisa provided. One final note is that the food was also exceptional. We had a number of people share that this was the best wedding food that they had ever had.

Swaneset is a fantastic venue for a wedding and I would highly recommend them!

Fall 2025 Wedding

We had our wedding at Swaneset on October 12th, and it was truly the most magical day! From the moment we started planning, Malissa and the Swaneset team were an absolute pleasure to work with. Malissa made the entire process so smooth and stress-free — always organized, responsive, and patient with all our questions.

The venue itself is breathtaking, and so many of our guests commented that it was one of the most beautiful and memorable weddings they’ve ever attended. On the day of, everything ran seamlessly thanks to the staff’s professionalism and attention to detail. We felt so well taken care of from start to finish.

We’re so thankful to have chosen Swaneset — it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Highly recommend to any couple looking for a stunning venue and an incredible team to bring their dream day to life!

Dream Wedding Venue

Swaneset was truly amazing. The responsiveness and communication levels with our coordinator Melissa made for such an easy planning process. As soon as we booked the venue we were given several supplemental planning guides and helpful tools (ie. floor plan, list of recommended vendors, month by month planner). We had several check-ins to see where we were with booking vendors and RSVP's, we also had an in person meeting which gave us clarity for all the little details. We attended the Bridal Show and Pasta Night offered by Swaneset to meet vendors and taste the food we chose for our wedding. At the end we stayed within our budget, and chose the "A Cut Above" menu option for our buffet dinner, and then did an open bar and had table wine in addition to the bar. Altogether, we stayed within our budget, including the bridal room rental (with an early access fee - water provided), sheridan room rental (nespresso machine inside no capsules), swaneset room rental, food, liquor/wine (open bar [we did not hit our limit]), and misc. taxes/fees. Would highly recommend Swaneset to anyone looking for a beautiful romatic venue - castle/bridgerton vibes.

Beautiful venue, amazing food!

The venue was absolutely beautiful and the food was incredible, we received so many complements on the food from our guests! Michelle was our event coordinator and she was incredible. Michelle was so helpful throughout the entire process and helped bring our vision to life seamlessly. We had both our ceremony and reception in the main ballroom as it was raining - and everything was perfect. The transition from ceremony to reception was seamless, and the layout was great. Both my husband and I were able to get ready in separate rooms and my husband was able to golf a round with his groomsmen in the morning and use the facilities at the venue to get ready. The food - wow. Incredible selection, and they were so accommodating to allergies and dietary restrictions. Everything was so delicious. Thank you Michelle and Swaneset team for bringing our dream to life on the most special day of our lives, we can't wait to return and relive our special memories, thank you!

Dream wedding

Swaneset is a beautiful venue! They only have one wedding a day so the entire place is all yours! Since they’re so popular, it does book up quick! We booked our venue in Nov 2023 and our wedding was June 2025! Holly was the first person we were in contact with and she was super prompt and very easy to work with! She answered all our questions thoroughly and was very pleasant! When it was coming close to our wedding we were paired with Sam who was our event manager/coordinator on the day of our wedding! Sam was great to work with! Very friendly, kind and detail oriented! Our family and friends couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the food was and how beautiful the venue was!! We opted for the tiramisu for dessert since someone once mentioned to me that it’s to dieeee for! Our biggest regret was not eating it at the wedding since we were so busy!! Thank you again to Holly, Sam and the Swaneset team! You guys made our dream wedding come true!

Like a Fairytale

Swaneset was incredible. From the first time we reached out to the venue, to attending The Swan event, to the rehearsal and the day of, we were taken care of every step of the way. Melissa was incredibly helpful and patient and beautifully helped planned the whole event.

She has great energy and made the day truly magical. The portal was easy to update, the food was incredibly delicious and had a great variety, the bar staff were quick to get orders and drinks ready and our entire experience was fabulous.

I highly recommend this venue for how picturesque it is, how accommodating the staff and coordinators are and how incredibly smooth everything went!

Nothing but kind words!

Dream wedding venue

We truly couldn't recommend Swaneset enough as a wedding venue!

One of the biggest reasons we chose Swaneset was the flexibility in ceremony spaces. We fell in love with both the indoor and outdoor options, which was especially important to us since our wedding was at the end of May when the weather can be unpredictable. It gave us peace of mind knowing we’d be happy with either setting—rain or shine.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Melissa as our planner, and we’re so grateful she was part of our day. She was calm, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. She helped us bring everything together seamlessly and exceeded all our expectations when it came to food and beverage. Melissa was exactly who we needed during the planning process—thoughtful, responsive, and so supportive.

Having worked in the wedding industry myself and experienced many venues, I had high standards for service and food—and Swaneset did not disappoint. While they don’t offer private tastings, they do host a wedding show in February where you can sample their menu and connect with vendors familiar with the venue. I highly recommend attending!

In the end, we received so many compliments from our guests about the food and drinks, which was extremely important to us. The quality was top-notch.

Yes, wedding costs can be surprising, and Swaneset was slightly above our initial budget. But we can confidently say it was worth every penny for the level of service, professionalism, and overall experience. The pricing is fair for what you get—and we wouldn’t change a thing.

Thank you, Swaneset, for helping us create the wedding of our dreams. We’ll be forever grateful to your team—and especially to Melissa!

The Wedding Of Our Dreams

We recently got married at Swaneset, and we can confidently say it was the most perfect day from beginning to end. Everything ran so smoothly, and we truly felt taken care of throughout the entire process.

Narisa was absolutely amazing—attentive, organized, and incredibly kind. She made us feel heard every step of the way, and because of her, we were able to fully enjoy our big day without a single worry.

The venue itself is stunning—our guests couldn’t stop raving about the gorgeous views and the elegant setup. And the food? 11/10. Every dish was delicious, and we had nothing but glowing compliments from everyone.

We highly, highly recommend having your wedding or any special event at Swaneset. The entire team is professional, experienced, and simply amazing at what they do. We’re so grateful to Narisa and everyone at Swaneset for making our wedding day so magical. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Once your date is booked, I will always be available to answer your questions and guide and assist you into a smooth and seamless wedding day.

Catering and Event Manager

Hi! My name is Danielle. I started with Swaneset at the beginning of 2016 as a Wedding and Events Coordinator. I studied Event Management and graduated with my Diploma in 2014. I have always had a passion for weddings and Swaneset is an outstanding place for me to put my skills to work. My detail oriented and calm personality is a great suit for the job. A month or so before your event we will get together to organize everything to create a perfect day.

Michelle Vincent
Event Manager

Hello! My name is Michelle, I’ve always had a passion for creating unique and beautiful experiences. This passion led me to graduating from BCIT in 2013 with an Associate Certificate in Marketing Management with a focus on Event Marketing and Event Planning. Implementing my education through four years of practical experience as an event bar manager and later a position as a special events assistant coordinator at a popular berry farm and estate winery. Armed with a competitive education, a wide variety of experiences, and a naturally detail-oriented mindset, I joined the event coordination team at Swan-E-Set Bay Resort and Country Club in January of 2018. As a professional wedding specialist, I believe the key to creating a one-of-a-kind lifetime event is through the support I give to clients from the beginning to the end of an event. Keeping in mind their vision of their special day, but providing them with the tools and inspiration to do so. From the initial meeting, menu planning, to the rehearsal and the day of your special occasion, I hope to create your dream come true.

For most of my adolescent life I trained as a competitive dancer, I now try to keep up some training when I’m not taking care of my two Cavalier King Charles dogs, Tennessee & Whiskey.
