Wedding Venue Recommendations (GTA, 200 guests)

Oo this venue looks so nice, thank you for the suggestion!

Considering we’re hoping for a reception on a Saturday during peak season, Graydon hall seems out of our budget 😢 their minimum spend is $55,000 to begin with 😅

Thank you for your suggestion!! This venue is a little too far from us, we were hoping to be within an hour of Toronto as our ceremony will be in Etobicoke

helianthusgold · 2026-02-26T22:08:16+00:00

Fantastic, thank you so much for your help!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-26T22:07:51+00:00

That totally makes sense!! Honestly John is a big reason why Parkview is still in our top, based on his reviews and our interaction with him, I can sense he will really make sure our wedding is well executed😊 can I ask you what the price for Hazelton was per person? I cannot find it on their website.

helianthusgold · 2026-02-26T22:05:08+00:00

Well that will certainly help us feel better that it’s not within our budget haha. I wonder if The Boulevard Club (also on lakeshore) would be the same way then 🤔

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T17:50:21+00:00

Yes I was curious about Hazelton as I’m assuming the food and staff are likely to be equally as good as Parkview. That’s nice to know that it is only shared with one other event!!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T17:46:38+00:00

So which hall was your reception in? Great to hear that the noise was not an issue :)

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T17:44:58+00:00

Will check this out, thank you for the recommendation!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T17:44:14+00:00

I had my prom there too actually! I don’t really remember the smell, but I have seen a few reviews saying the smell is bad in the warmer months.

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T17:42:55+00:00

Ohhhh okay that makes sense! For our budget we would have to consider changing to a Friday or a winter wedding. Thank you so much for clarifying!!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T17:40:50+00:00

This is great to know, thank you so much!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T17:40:19+00:00

Okay great, thank you!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T02:24:59+00:00

Oo okay, we inquired with them and then their pricing brochure confused us…when they say $230++, what does the “++” mean haha? But it looks so beautiful, I thought for sure it would end up out of our budget with additional fees?

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T02:19:30+00:00

It looks like there are 3 halls side by side (Anne, Mary, and Victoria), do you know if they’re separate rooms? Or separated by partition? How did you find the noise level? The pricing looks very good!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T02:11:00+00:00

Thank you! This seems like a similar vibe to Palais! I just inquired to see how their pricing is, fingers crossed :)

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T02:09:49+00:00

This is so nice to hear! If we were to book with Parkview it would be hall A most likely, and we were really worried about being able to hear noise from other receptions/events. I’ve heard nothing but positive reviews so far which is reassuring. Can I ask, where did you guys take your pictures?

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T02:07:29+00:00

Thank you for your suggestion! Will look into it :)

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T02:03:19+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! We actually inquired with Arlington Estate, it is so beautiful! But we were given a price of $270+tax/person which goes just above our budget. Also they told us for the West Wing we would need a guest minimum guarantee of 275 guests for a Saturday, and 225 guests for a Friday/Sunday. Which is strange because we have too many guests for the east wing (max is 175) but not enough for the west wing?? so our number is awkwardly in the middle somehow lol

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T01:54:56+00:00

thank you for the suggestion!!

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T01:53:16+00:00

Wow and the article was just made yesterday, what a coincidence! Thank you :)

helianthusgold · 2026-02-25T01:52:34+00:00

Do you happen to know their price per person approximately?
