They are too busy to respond to emails. Its best to call or meet in person to save the date.
If you are looking for a classy, fun and unique night this is the venue for you! However take into account that you need to have the $5000 dollar deposit to secure a date and dates run out quickly. So my suggestion when you see the venues is that you are ready with the minimum 5000 at a reach to make the deposit right before the dates disapear. Also there are winter promotions that are worth taking into account if you are willing to pick any available date!

Amazing wedding reception on Oct 26, 2018
We would like to extended our sincere gratitude to the whole staff that had been a part of our wedding reception! All of our guests enjoyed and were very pleased with the beautiful venue, professional and friendly staff, and the amazing food! We are so glad we found this gem in Toronto!
From the servers, bartenders and doorman who were pleasant and professional; the floor manager, Joe, who was pleasant and on point, he even assisted with rescuing my wedding dress by finding a Tide-to-go to remove the food stain on it. He was readily available throughout the night and made sure that me and my husband had eaten and had been well hydrated; the sound and lighting technician who had even introduced himself before the reception started - he was very professional and had done an amazing job; the Vice President (Teresa) and Event Manager (Sarah) were so easy to talk to, professional, and were prompt to respond and to accommodate when we had inquires or requests that needed addressing (thank you so much Teresa and Sarah, Matt and I are very impressed by your outstanding service and patience!); and to the kitchen staff who were excellent in their service - everyone were able to enjoy each meal or snack that was served. We would like to appreciate everyone's hard work and dedication to high quality service to your clients.
Thank you so much for making our special day extra memorable. We hope that Eglinton Grand will continue to excel and be well known not only in Toronto but in the country! Cheers!
Sincerely - Diana & Matt

Amazing experience all around
The Eglinton Grand is a venue like no other: Timeless, Romantic, Intimate, Sophisticated. On top of that they're a 1-stop shop, doing their own catering, bar service, lights, music. The reviews from our guests speak they loudest: Joe was amazing and ensured every guest was taken care of; service was 5-star; they took care of my special dietary restriction. My husband and I would absolutely recommend anyone looking for a high calibre venue to select EGLINTON GRAND. Beautiful from beginning to end!

A night to remember
The Eglinton Grand went above our expectations for what our wedding could be. From the moment we spoke with Theresa through the final details with Sarah, we knew we were in good hands. The entire staff helped my husband and I have the most perfect night with our friends and family. We went with the buffet and everyone commented that it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. Lots of variety for even the most picky! They even work with you to make sure that any guests with food intolerance/allergies are accommodated. The red carpet entrance to the venue and the personalized marquee (along with other options for personalization throughout the ball room) really made planning this fun. Great features, beautiful venue... Highly recommended, over and over again!

Great Venue
Overall this venue is great for an event/wedding. The service from the staff was very well run. The dinner service was very well run - many guest commented at how smoothly it ran and how the guests got their food very quickly. The meal was quite large and very filling! many of the guests commented how stuffed they were! many people didn't touch our late night or sweets table because the meal was so filling! The bar was serviced well throughout the night, and really can't complain about the high level of service throughout the day. Great place to hold a wedding. We were very happy with our day!
