The Grand Hotel

We held our daughters wedding at The Grand Hotel this past New Years Eve 2025 and it was elegant, spectacular and everything we had all dreamed of. Simply magical! From the first meeting and tour we knew the venue and the people running it were special. Every detail was taken care of and we absolutely loved the bridal suite and other rooms and suites being right on site. Everyone is still raving about the food, it was large portions and served piping hot. The venue provided a variety of spaces for people to gather including quiet rooms, the main ballroom and a snug. The bridal suite was spectacular and the wedding and on-site coordinators great to work with. We can't wait to continue to celebrate their anniversary there for many years to come!

The Grand Hotel was the venue for our wedding and it couldn't have been more special. The entire staff is filled with some of the friendliest and most helpful individuals who helped take off so much pressure when it came to all the minutiae of the day. The venue itself was the perfect backdrop and we got a ton of compliments on it from our guests. Also, the food was incredible!!

I attended a wedding at The Grand and my family and I had such a great time. The venue is beautiful! Lovely decor in both the ceremony room and the reception hall. We also had the chance to enjoy drinks and appetizers at their pub and outdoor patio. It was fantastic! The service too was incredible and the food was amazing. From the appetizers all the way to desserts and late night snack tables, everything was delicious. I would totally recommend this venue if you need to host a special occasion!

We got married at The Grand in October of 2025 and it is – without a doubt – the best possible choice we could have made for our wedding.nnThe venue is fantastic – great décor and lighting, nicely sized rooms that will make a great backdrop for all your photos. The Grand had an array of seating and setting options for us to choose from and we were easily able to find a scheme that suited our tastes. We held our ceremony in the front ballroom, our cocktails in the Smith & Barrel Lounge and our dinner in the dining room upstairs. With 45 guests, all three rooms were perfect for our party.nnThe food was a highlight for us and our guests. How many times have you left a wedding underwhelmed and underfed? That will not happen at The Grand. Their chef, Jordan, delivered an incredible three course meal that every guest agreed was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. The wait staff were equally great, serving the courses quickly and seamlessly and making sure everyone’s drinks were topped up. Vegans, picky eaters, omnivores? No problem. It’s been weeks since our wedding and we’re still getting raves from our guests about how much they loved the appetizers, cocktails, dinner and desserts.nnThe real benefit of holding our wedding at The Grand, though, was getting to work with Steve and his staff. There is so much that goes into the lead up to a wedding, but Steve and everyone at The Grand made the whole process easy and worry-free. They kept us on schedule, advised us when we were unsure, provided lots of helpful suggestions that made our special day even more memorable. When it came to the actual wedding day, they made sure everything flowed seamlessly so we could focus on enjoying our guests and our party. Our guests agreed, too, frequently telling us how nice everyone at The Grand was, how helpful, and how well all aspects of the evening were handled.nnTo sum it up, we can’t recommend The Grand highly enough. They created a day that absolutely exceeded our wildest expectations, they were a pleasure to work with from start to finish, and the venue can’t be beat. You’ll love it and your guests will love it

I had the pleasure of photographing a wedding at The Grand Carleton Place in mid-August, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. The venue itself is stunning — elegant, spacious, and filled with beautiful natural light that made capturing the day such a joy.nnWhat truly stood out, though, was the staff. Steve, the manager, was incredibly hospitable and went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly for the couple, their guests, and even us vendors. The entire team was professional, attentive, and genuinely kind, which made such a difference in creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.nnFrom a photographer’s perspective, it’s a dream location with both indoor and outdoor options that photograph beautifully. But more importantly, The Grand Carleton Place delivers an exceptional guest and vendor! experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to any couple searching for their wedding venue.
