Great Toronto wedding venues (I): Graydon Hall Manor

As an experienced wedding Officiant in Toronto and the GTA, I know how important it is to find the perfect venue for your ceremony and wedding reception. For that reason, this is the first post in a series dedicated to take a more personal look at some of the most beautiful, inspiring and interesting locations for weddings in Toronto.

A venue is certainly ideal if it can be both your ceremony and your reception location. This way you, as the bridal couple, and your guests have the opportunity to settle in and get truly comfortable. It is so much easier to maintain a relaxed, upbeat mood if your guests don’t have to worry about gathering up their things and finding yet another location and dealing with stressful parking challenges in Toronto. This combination of one location for ceremony and wedding is the current trend for busy and practical bridal couples.

Graydon Hall Manor, the most elegant venue in North Toronto is the first to be featured in this series of posts that I hope will help you find your very personal wedding location. The outdoor gardens and artistic stonework are beautiful. Every bride has loved walking down the bridal path to their outdoor ceremony surrounded by the exquisite landscaping. Even with a rainy day the beautiful, elegant indoor chapel has soft light pouring through large windows to create a sophisticated ambiance. This is not a poor second choice for a ceremony location at all. In fact, some people choose the chapel over outside as their ceremony location. Everyone knows Graydon Hall’s catering is heaven for foodies. They have built a solid reputation on the trend setting couture cuisine. Über-Chef Arpi Magyar is a super star in the realm of cuisine.


Could this be any more beautiful?
