Whether you choose the historic grandeur
of the Fort Garry Hotel, the iconic Fairmont
Winnipeg at Portage and Main, or a rustic
country garden, your wedding venue will
always be your special place.
Fairmont Winnipeg marketing manager Pascale Rocher
says the Winnipeg Ballroom can comfortably seat 650
guests, but the hotel has hosted weddings for as few as
four people, and some couples simply hold a dinner party
at the Velvet Glove restaurant — which becomes an annual
anniversary destination.
"It's where a lot of people got engaged," she adds.
"We can really customize any wedding and we really always
look to make every wedding personalized. We can make it as
extravagant and detailed as they want and we can make it as
basic as they want."
The Fort Garry Hotel offers an equally large variety of options
for bridal parties of all sizes. The 103-year-old landmark has
four grand ballrooms — three of which are National Historic
Sites — among a dozen elegant event spaces. Brides and
grooms can start the day with a Ten Spa couple's massage,
enjoy an overnight romance package, and begin married life
with a leisurely brunch in the Broadway Breakfast Room.
One of Winnipeg's newest full-service wedding venues is Club
Regent Event Centre, which can accommodate 500 guests
