Top Wedding Reception venues in Montreal

Founded as Ville-Marie (City of Mary) in 1642, Montreal is Canada's second-largest city and an exciting place to visit. The Quebec metropolis borrowed its name from Mount Royal, a range located west of downtown Montreal. It rests where the Saint Lawrence River and Ottawa River converge. The city is beautiful overall, but its neighborhoods best display it.

Old Montreal transports you to a different era, with old-world charm and charming cafes and quaint shops lining its cobblestone streets. It also helps that the city is a getaway to other treasured Canadian holiday spots, such as the sandy beaches of Prince Edward County in nearby Ontario.

Montreal boasts of being a top international host, an accolade the city maintains because of its welcoming atmosphere. The town is the backdrop for bachelor/bachelorette parties, business meetings, and other special occasions. Giggster has 281 listings that easily rival the Canvas Montreal reception loft and the Oval Room at the Ritz Carlton Montreal! Explore our curated lists of Montreal wedding venues to find your perfect space.

Giggster's Curated Wedding Reception Venues in Montreal

It's easy to see why Montreal is a popular destination for weddings and other events. Old Montreal offers the perfect setting for a fairytale wedding, with many venues featuring rustic aesthetics and brick and stone walls. Giggster can connect you to an industrial chic space or charming venue for your vineyard wedding.

  • Does unique space, high ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows describe your wedding venue? Look for a castle near downtown Montreal that will sweep you off your feet! Search for an event space that exudes modern elegance with Romanesque/ French-style features, making it an elegant setting for weddings.

  • Giggster has elegant ballrooms with hardwood floors for banquet hall events. Imagine a dance studio with brick walls, exposed beams, and a dance floor. It's the ideal venue for TV commercials, music video shoots, and celebrations like a wedding reception.

  • Are you looking for a modern reception hall for your wedding, corporate reception, or social event? Book a spacious venue that can host hundreds of guests. A venue featuring contemporary decor can accommodate different room modifications, from a stylish reception to a networking session.

  • Book an outdoor terrace for your business dinner or photoshoot. A private terrace can also host intimate weddings, with indoor/outdoor spaces, including a patio space and a fully equipped kitchen.

Things to Consider For Your Wedding in Montreal

Giggster can connect you to hundreds of event spaces suitable for an outdoor wedding ceremony followed by a reception. It helps to know what challenges you might face when booking a wedding venue in the city and how to handle them.

Advantages

  • The heavy French influences and different cultures make Montreal a gastronomic haven. You'll have plenty of menu options for your wedding reception.

  • From raiding the charming stores lining the streets of Old Montreal to visiting world-famous attractions, there's so much to do around the city. Plan an outing with your guests the day after your intimate wedding ceremony.

  • Culture is King in Montreal! Historic buildings enrich the architectural landscape and offer plenty of backdrops for wedding photography.

Disadvantages

  • Outdoor ceremonies have to face below-zero winter temperatures. Couples host weddings indoors to escape the harsh winter conditions, but various venues have indoor and outdoor spaces.

  • Traffic in the city affects commute times during peak hours. Choose a Montreal wedding venue that's easy to reach or schedule your event against the traffic.

  • With more than 70% of the residents speaking French, non-natives usually need help communicating with vendors and event suppliers. However, it isn't the most significant setback because most Montreal venues have professionals who can communicate in English.

The Best Types of Reception Venues in Montreal

Finding a perfect venue gets you closer to hosting your dream wedding in Montreal. Browsing Giggster's hundreds of event spaces can help you pinpoint a rooftop terrace, country club, or boutique hotel for the occasion. If you are still figuring out whether to go for a reception room or banquet hall, these ideas can help:

  • Hotels - Receptions. A contemporary hotel is one of the best indoor wedding venues. Most hotels have spacious reception halls and provide event planning packages, including entertainment and in-house catering.

  • Galleries – Photoshoots. An art gallery can enhance wedding photos with eye-catching details like brick walls and paintings. Though unconventional, you can celebrate your wedding day at an art museum. It's among the small wedding venues that suit couples who prefer a minimalistic vibe.

  • Rooftops – Cocktail Party Receptions. A rooftop is among the best outdoor ceremony options because it offers two venues in one setting. It suits outdoor weddings hosted in months when the weather might turn, providing an indoor space as a backup.

  • Barns – Ceremonies and Receptions. Barns offer rustic elegance for wedding receptions and ceremonies. A secluded setting, a short drive from downtown Montreal, provides the satisfaction of retreating from the hustle and bustle.

  • Restaurants – Receptions - Many couples who host weddings at different venues choose restaurants for the reception. As dining establishments, they provide catering services and can customize the menu for various occasions.

Planning Your Wedding Reception in Montreal

Montreal has a perfect backdrop for your wedding reception, whether you prefer industrial backdrops with high ceilings and a space for a dance floor or a rooftop bar with a cocktail hour. Browse Giggster's selected listings to find an outdoor ceremony and reception venue. If you are still on the fence about which space to choose, these planning tips will help.

Choose the Best Space Decide if you want to host your ceremony and reception at the same wedding venue or in different locations. Pay attention to the facilities and amenities to help you narrow your choices.

Host a Themed Wedding In addition to having a color palette, choose a wedding theme. The two go hand in hand and will help wedding guests know what to wear on the big day.

Get Professional Help – Wedding planners are invaluable resources for your special day. Get day-of coordination if you only need partial help or full-service planning to handle everything from A to Z.

Hire a Band or DJ When hosting a wedding reception, the age-old question remains: band or DJ? Hire an entertainer to start the party and keep it going regardless of your preference.

How to Save Money on Your Wedding Reception in Montreal

Even with a decent budget, weddings cost a tidy sum! It helps to know what cost-saving measures you can implement to reduce your budget, and these ideas can inspire your choices:

Choose a pre-decorated wedding venue.

Unless you have chosen a unique theme, it's wise to book a space with a distinct atmosphere that matches your taste. There are selections of pre-decorated wedding spaces, and all you have to do is add a few personalized touches to make the venue your own—team up with the in-house decorators to transform the space into your dream setting.

Research Downtown Montreal wedding venues.

Even if your budget can't afford a venue that meets the Ritz Carlton or Canvas Montreal Reception Loft standards, you will find a beautiful wedding venue in the city. Giggster has many wedding venues with an hourly rental rate.

Schedule wisely.

Picking a wedding date is one thing, but scheduling the occasion is entirely different. Renting a venue when it's less busy can help you negotiate favorable rental rates. You'll likely get discounts by choosing a weekday night over the weekend. Also, ask for discounts; most vendors are willing to float discounts on early bookings.
