Oakville Conference & Banquet Centre

We had a First Communion Party a few days ago and the party was fabulous because of the service that was provided. It was extremely well planned, and everything was perfect. It went above and beyond our expectations. The staff was amazing, and catered to our every need. The Sales & Events staff were also excellent, and made sure we got exactly what we asked for. Overall, it was a lovely experience.

Had my wedding here two weeks ago and we were overall pleased with our experience! We found the staff easy to work with. The day of the wedding the waiter for the head table was amazing, he checked so many times if everything is great and went out of his way for us. The bar staff also was super friendly! The only negative was that they didn't provide a plate and fork for cake cutting, which seemed odd that I had to think of that to tell them to do, as opposed to them asking us in advance. We would definitely suggest OCC for a wedding venue!

EDIT: It has almost been two months since our wedding and the Oakville Conference Centre has still not tried to contact us to rectify the situation. Talk about "excellent customer service" 🤦 My experience with the Oakville Conference Centre leading up to the wedding was okay. However, once we submitted our final payment, we noticed the service go downhill. There were a couple e-mails that we sent before the wedding that went unanswered. Then, to top it off, the venue put up a tent that completely covered the gazebo where we were going to have our wedding ceremony. It looked absolutely disgusting, and my fiance, who is about 6'4" couldn't even fit under the tent because it was set up so short. Our event coordinator, Lisa, did not tell us that this tent was being put up until a day before our wedding, so we were left scrambling for a backdrop that would make our ceremony look somewhat decent. We should have been given at least a weeks notice that this tent was being put up, and they should have made sure it was okay with us first because we paid to have our ceremony there. We also offered up many solutions to have the tent taken down, like that we would take it down ourself or we'd pay them to take it down, but Lisa was not willing to work with us; she was uninterested and acted like she didn't care at all. The main reason we chose to do our ceremony at the venue was because of the gazebo - if we had known they would cover it because of a 10% chance of rain, we would've chosen another ceremony location. So if you're reading this and you're thinking of using the gazebo for your ceremony, you better make sure there is a 0% chance of rain on your wedding day otherwise they will screw you over. Also, when we first visited the venue, Lisa told us that the walls were 99% soundproof and that we wouldn't be able to hear music playing from the other rooms. This was very misleading. The music from the reception room beside ours was so loud that we could barely hear our speeches. They should either coordinate the time of speeches with each reception room so that no music interferes or just don't tell clients that the wall is 99% soundproof, because it's obviously not. Overall, it was an awful experience and I would not recommend this place to anyone, especially brides looking for a wedding venue. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere.

Had the Grade 12 Grad Celebrations here. Wonderful evening. Accessible with good parking etc.

Big shout out to this place. I worked there couple of weeks ago, and for the first time in my career the couple decided not to feed the vendors (after working for 12 hours). Luckily the owner of oakville conference center treated me and the other vendors like we were his family and offered us a table and food. I will definitely recommend this place to any of my future clients.
