Wedding Hall

As this is the venue at which events are held (and not the actual events), I'll base this rating on the overall layout of the place and the nailed-down amenities. The grounds were well maintained even after the first 2 days of the Big Valley Jamboree 2018. The free water areas were well stocked and easy to find. Volunteers and workers kept the place neat and tidy throughout the day by picking up garbage and recycling. The only reason this isn't a 5 star rating is that there is not enough permanent structures for shade on hot/sunny days. You have people spending good hard-earned money but they bake in the sun because there is very limited places to find refuge from the sun. Please provide more covered areas for shade. Otherwise, it's a great venue for outdoor festivals!

Great place for group gatherings and events only downfall is no WiFi bathrooms too close to the kitchen

Nice place.

Tracey took our newborn and maternity photos and we were SO HAPPY with them. She patiently worked with our children and ourselves to create natural poses, a few candid shots, and some great artistic photos. I was nervous about having photos taken because we are awkward and our children are very energetic, but Tracey gave us confidence and direction and the photos turned out so beautifully! We would 100% book again for our next maternity/newborn photos and recommend to anyone looking for wedding photography. (Wish we knew about them when we were married!)

Easy to bring a large group to. Because of buffet it is a short time from arriving to everyone having food. Nanaimo bars were great. Reasonable selection. It would be nice if they had more than one credit card machine takes a little while for 10 people to pay. Chocolate fountain is awesome.

Nice place for modest weddings and family gatherings

Beautiful community

This is a beautiful building. Perfect for community orientated events and organizations. The outdoor gardens, the cafe and library are all lovely. Rooms are available to rent for birthdays, weddings, etc. I love that the city invested in such an important facility to bring community together.

Top notch place, I was trying to hold out until after my daughters wedding but here goes...the ladies in there were so great to deal with. All bridemaids dresses, wedding dress and mother of the bride dresses came in as ordered. Fittings with Beth were wonderful. They acknowledged my daughter every time she walked in the door. This is huge for customer service. Great job ladies.

Nice and maintained place

Great wrestling

Bill Nielsen Trails are awesome anytime of the year :)

I had my Wedding here. It has a decent sized kitchen and hall area. We are very happy with our choice. I would recommend this place for anyone having a smaller event. 😊
