Bridal Shower

We had a wonderful stay at The Dorian! Valet was super helpful, check-in warm and welcoming, and we were upgraded to a beautiful city-view room stocked with Aesop products, snacks, and drinks. Our sleep was amazing, the shower was incredible, and the bed very comfortable.

Room service went above and beyond—accepting a late order and even offering complimentary breakfast to resolve a steak issue. We slept in and skipped breakfast on checkout day, but the exchange point credit given instead was perfect.

Overall: chic boutique charm, excellent service, and a fun, stylish vibe. Perfect for a weekend getaway or quick stop on your travels!

The Dorian is a phenomenal establishment with a great name! The hotel is beautiful and the staff are incredible. The art in the lobby was very creative.

I would especially like to recommend that Baxter (valet) be given a raise. He was incredibly informative and friendly and made me feel right at home during our visit to this great place. I will be putting in a good word for him with management.

I stayed at this hotel last Sunday. The hotel itself was very nice, and the room was clean and tidy. However, apart from late check-out, I did not receive any of my Platinum benefits.
When I inquired at the front desk about the welcome gift, the staff member simply replied, “Only points.” However, according to Marriott’s Terms & Conditions, I should be able to choose between an F&B credit and welcome points, and for properties without a club lounge, guests should receive either points or complimentary breakfast in lieu of lounge access.
In my case, I only received the 1,000-point welcome bonus and did not receive any points or complimentary breakfast for the missing lounge benefit. I also did not receive a room upgrade (which I understand may not be possible at a busy property), nor was I offered the choice between welcome points and F&B service.
Furthermore, when I requested room slippers, the front desk told me they would be delivered to my room, but even after several hours, they never arrived. I had to follow up with a second staff member before I finally received them.
While I expected the service of a luxurious hotel, the staff’s attentiveness and communication unfortunately did not meet that standard, which left me disappointed.

Disappointing Experience – Far Below Marriott Standards

I usually never complain, but I’ll make an exception for The Dorian, Autograph Collection by Marriott.

I get that people would fairly rate this hotel very well—it’s beautifully decorated and stylish, and I’m sure my experience doesn’t reflect that of every guest. In my opinion, the issue I faced could have been resolved easily, but maybe I just had the wrong staff at the lobby this time. So, just be cautious.

I arrived early and politely asked for the room I had reserved: a King bed with a city view. I was even willing to wait until the official check-in time, so there was no excuse for not honoring the request. However, the room I received had no city view—just a view of the side of another building. When I followed up with the front desk, they claimed that no King room with a city view would be better than what I had. I seriously doubt that was true.

Second, be cautious with the “breakfast included” option when booking. Breakfast for one person costs over $40, yet all you actually receive is a $25 credit on the menu. Since the restaurant is inside the hotel and serves only hotel guests, this feels misleading at best—if not an outright scam.

Overall, this experience was well below the quality I expect from a Marriott hotel.

But to be fair, the room itself was nice—view aside.

My husband stayed here for a night after arriving at the Calgary airport on our way to the Rockies. I really wished we had had more time! The room, service, views, and food were all spectacular. I loved the many whimsical ways that Oscar Wilde was incorporated in the design and concept. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go downtown and enjoyed meals at the Wilde and Provisions bar. I was also genuinely impressed by the selection at the mini bar in the room, and would have tried more of the offerings if we had had more time. Highly recommend for anyone stopping in Calgary for a city break!

I recently visited at The Inn on Officers Garden restaurant, for a wedding and it was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and lively, making the day feel even more special. We had the winer room with a stunning wine wall that added so much charm, elegant, and perfect atmosphere. The food was truly delicious — beautifully presented. The service stood out as well: the staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything went smoothly. It was a real pleasure to spend time there and I am grateful for the opportunity to be there.

A wonderful place that I wholeheartedly recommend to others!

We celebrated our wedding at this wonderful restaurant. The location is incredibly peaceful and very beautiful. The atmosphere, preparation, and organization were all at the highest level. Every detail that was important to me was carefully considered.

I especially want to highlight the manager, Ranijth, who organized everything perfectly. We had a private room separate from the main restaurant, which made the day even more cozy and special.

The service was excellent, and the food was absolutely delicious. All our guests were very happy.

That’s why I truly recommend this place for any important event. Our wedding here was simply unforgettable!⭐️

Will forever be my go to hotel in Calgary! Stayed for a week while my son was doing a hockey camp. The rooms were beautiful and the restaurant had the best food. The customer service was absolutely amazing and I truly felt like I was at home. The pub downstairs (with pool table, darts and tv) and the park across the street kept my kiddo entertained the entire time. Not a wine drinker, but they had a very impressive list. The full bar gave me lots to chose from. The food was amazing, but the waitstaff who served it will never be topped by another restaurant I ever visit. The personal connection I made with everyone during my visit will never be forgotten.

Very nice place, great settings. I had Bison steak. Was good, except some gristle that spoiled it a bit. Mash was good, veg nice, sauce good, rich, my opinion maybe add some berries like blueberries raspberries for bit of sharpness. Not really sure it was worth the $60
Would come back😊

I stayed at The Inn last week during a family emergency. The care and concern that the staff showed was truly touching. Everyone was so unfailingly kind. The amenities available on site are great, and the rooms are decorated with such an artistic eye. The linens are of the highest quality, and the beds are super comfortable.

Special mention the bartender/server Sean, who let us stay in the dining room long after the kitchen had closed and looked after our every need. In terms of service, he just went above and beyond.

I can only imagine the care that would be taken in making sure a special day like your wedding would be perfectly executed.

Thank you to everyone at The Inn,
Michelle Finlayson

Did my daughter's baptism reception here. First of all it was a pleasure to work with Romina. She was very helpful and answers your email quick. Every thing went very smoothly.
We did a Brunch buffet w/ a veal roast everything was delicious. It was also a lot of food for the price I paid. The place is also clean and beautiful.
I am overall happy that I chose Villa Toscana for our venue.
I'll definitely come back. Thanks again Romina & to your whole team at Villa Toscana .

We had our wedding and reception at Villa Toscana in July 2025. Romina was a pleasure to work with and made us feel at ease with everything. Everything was great and our guests all left extremely happy. We would definitely re-book Villa Toscana for another event. We can not recommend them enough for a small-medium sized wedding!

Friendly personal, delicious food and very nice decor

Great place to do your family event

Ordered catering from here more than once. Food is fresh and delicious and the prices are reasonable. Staff are lovely from ordering to pick up

We had our wedding Last Saturday, and wow wow everything was wonderful,.the food delicious, and that comes from me and all my guests. The service was impeccable 👌 extra nice workers.
Don t hesitate to book with them.
Thanks so much.

We were overally pleased with the collaboration and final result of working with Espace Franny. For a fair price, they were able to customize a backdrop and the team agreed to write not only the name, but also decorate the wall with butterflies (special request). Be aware that the order has to be paid beforehand, once the team arrives at your location (we asked for assembly and disassembly of the wall).
We had only one minor negative experience when the writing was firstly applied of the wall: the letters were not all aligned and it was very noticeable, in my view. Nonetheless, the team agreed with our point and fixed the issue quickly (you can see the before/after in the pictures). Also note there were some old glue parts on the wall from previous use, but those weren't too noticeable. Overall, we are very happy with the result and guests were impressed with the beautiful decor. Would recommend and would likely use Espace Franny's services again in the future! :)

It was a pretty nice evening that I had, Franny was super cool and so understanding, I'll be back soon!

Beautiful venue. A great rental price.
It was perfect for our surprise birthday party.
I recommend Franny's services.

Great location! Clean, affordable!
We're happy to do business with Espace Franny and rent the venue every week!

Excellent service. Espace Franny is attentive to detail. The room was very well decorated and the expectant parents loved it. Thank you.

My husband and I had our wedding here on October 12th, 2024. Everything was absolutely perfect. I can’t thank Justin enough for being the best wedding coordinator we could have ever asked for. He was by our side through this whole process, was honest and beyond helpful. I would also like to thank Marcos for being an absolute godsend on the day of our wedding. His attention to detail made my vision come to life. Our food was exquisite and our guests raved about how amazing our food was especially our stations during cocktail hour. The staff was also so amazing and caring. Thank you again so much for making our wedding the best day ever!

We absolutely love shooting weddings at Espace Gare Viger, and we consistently leave with beautiful images and happy clients. For couples looking for a memorable and visually striking venue, we highly recommend Espace Gare Viger!

Where do we start…. 🥹 Incredible venue, incredible location, unprecedented staff, unforgettable event, most delicious food +++. We cannot recommend this venue more! Justin is the BEST! he helped us with all the details from day 1, he was extremely flexible with our demands and the Gentile team made this event a fairytale!! The feedback we got from our guests was awesome, everyone LOVED the food and talked about how caring the servers and Maitre were! The stations were generous and extremely delicious as well!
Mario kept coming to me and my husband during the wedding to ask us if we needed anything. Cannot thank you all enough, you made our wedding unforgettable! ❤️

Beautiful venue and excellent service for any event like corporate or wedding. Visited here Sept 2018 for reception. Not sure if food for the International Buffet was externally catered but it was fresh and excellent. Main course food was good too. Wide variety of drinks selection.

Getting to the side entrance is a little tricky by car. Plenty of parking space in the front and side.
Can't recall if there was wheelchair entrance doors but seemed wide enough to allow.

We had our son’s wedding at Gare Viger and it was a wonderful experience! It was a beautiful venue, the food was amazing, the staff outstanding and the ambiance was perfect! A one stop shop with the reception hall offering an outdoor ceremony in the courtyard. Alex was great to work who made sure to deliver top notch service. We were delighted with the entire celebration. Thank you Gare Viger staff !

MashaAllah very good venue to hold an event. We recently had a wedding hosted there.The administration was very cooperative and helpful.
Special thanks to brother Waheed, the chef for preparing delicious Afghan meal for our guests.
JazakhAllah.

Beautiful and well maintained, the steps at the entrance is what every visitor need to be cautious about..high heels and boots may be a bit worrisome at the time of winter or a rainy day... ample amount of parking and a good place to host events.

I had a good experience decorating for my customer small and simple wedding. Good communication, easy to contact anytime . Beatiful hall , big space and clean .I would recommend it for my clients .

Attended Al-Fitra elementary school iftar during Ramadan- was blown away by the atmosphere - brilliant decor, lighting and well executed event. The basement space was used for prayer allowed the upstairs setup to remain intact during the event but could use a little upgrade.

I have been using the hall of peace as an event coordinator for over a year now. I have been very happy with my experience. Whether I was hosting a wedding, any community gathering or my live performance event everything always went very well.

The staff who work here are very friendly and are have been very helpful in addressing both the needs of my clients and any event I have hosted there personally.

The main hall is beautiful with an amazing ambience and great for weddings or larger community event as I have had up to 120 guests at one time and it was still spacious.

The downstairs hall can easily fit a lil over 50 to 60 people and is great for smaller events and gatherings.

There is plenty of parking and my guests have always enjoyed the events I have been able to host here. I am very happy with my experience with this multipurpose event space and will definitely be using it again and again!

Very bad experience, they accused us of leaving a mess after our event and charged us $350 damage deposit.

UPDATE PER RESPONSE

This is a recurring issue that many clients have faced, as shown in your public reviews. It’s important to clarify that there is a significant difference between maintaining cleanliness and unjustly withholding deposits.
We left the kitchen in far better condition than we found it spotless and well-organized without raising any complaints. We swept the floors and ensured the entire space was reasonably clean and tidy. I find it extremely difficult to justify being charged $200 for a single stain on the floor.
Had I known that such an unreasonable deduction would be made, I wouldn't have put in the effort to clean at all. To make matters worse, I only received a partial refund of $50, with the other $50 withheld due to issues with your sound system — which, by the way, wasn’t functioning properly to begin with.
I fully understand the importance of returning the hall in a clean condition. However, returning only $100 — half for a questionable stain and half due to your own equipment malfunction — is excessive and disappointing. This was a truly unfortunate experience.

I really loved my experience until I got shocked by this unjustified bill. I wish you can do something better about or at least give some proper justification so you can keep your clients with good story to be said for all other folks

We hosted our wedding reception here (about 70 people) and it was the perfect venue! It was during a heat wave and they had air conditioning, a big kitchen for our caterer and we had the freedom to bring in our own food, alcohol and chairs (we used their tables and tablecloths) and we had lots of prep/clean up time. Pricing was super reasonable and the light shining in from the windows facing the west lit up the space in the summer! Highly recommend this event space for any need!

1. The venue is nice. However, I have been waiting since April 28th for my damage deposit to be returned. Not only did they assume my mailing address without confirming it, but they also issued the cheque in the wrong name, despite this being discussed and clarified in advance. This level of negligence is unacceptable.

2. The day of my event, they changed the door code last minute and didn’t tell me. I was waiting outside for 20 minutes trying to reach someone.

3. Worse still, every attempt to contact them—whether by email or phone—has been ignored. On the rare occasion you do manage to reach someone, the staff are rude, dismissive.

For a place that charges good money, the customer service is shockingly unprofessional. I would strongly caution anyone considering this venue: the stress and lack of accountability are simply not worth it

We rented the social lounge on May 7th for Eid party. It’s a nice big facility and has almost everything you’d need for a social event including the audio visual equipment (TVs, projector with screen, podium, microphone and laptop connectors). Comes with pre set tables and chairs and extra chairs and tables in the closet. Big kitchen that can be rented separately and a wet bar with a fridge. Lots of lighting in the room. Lovely service from the administration team, clear instructions and a nice big parking lot. They have a main hall that’s even bigger just no projector so we ended up booking the social lounge instead. Lovely place and lovely administration. I’ll be renting this facility every time we need to have a social event!

Cinnamon was very pleasant to work with regarding our questions and concerns when we booked the main hall. Place was very clean, also received my deposit a couple days later with no issues. Will be recommending this venue to friends and family.

I highly recommend this place for any special occasion, such as birthdays etc. It's incredibly comfortable, well-organized, and clean, with a minimalistic color scheme that I adore. Stephen's accommodation and responsiveness to all inquiries were outstanding. Our son's birthday party was filled with joy, thanks to this wonderful venue. Thank you so much!

We booked the North Hall for my baby's 1st birthday. We had 55 guests in total. I have nothing but good words for Highland Park Centre. The hall and kitchen are clean, newly renovated and beautiful. Ample parking space too. Stephen, the manager, was very accommodating and patient with my gazillion questions. He made sure that our event was a success. Thank you again! We will surely book the hall again for our future events.

P.S If you're reading this review and still looking for an event place to rent, see the hall for yourself. You'll never regret!

What a nice hall and the price was right from what I heard the hall received a renovation and it is very nice in there. It was nice to have the kitchen to heat up food and fridges to keep our drinks cold! We had our wedding here July 9, 2022 with about 50 people. We booked the north hall which can hold 60 people max. Stephen the manager was very efficient in answering all my questions I had with a quick response time. We had planned our wedding on shorter notice but we lucked out with the hall being free on our day and had me booked up in no time. Thank you Stephen for all your help. The hall was to close down for 10PM which was perfect for us. I truly liked this hall! Everyone had a great time.

Had an amazing experience booking and hosting at Highland Park! Stephen was so easy to work with, answered all questions so promptly and followed up post event immediately!

The event space was absolutely perfect for a Baby Shower of 40 people, would absolutely rent again and recommend the space!!

We booked Main Hall for our Son’s Christening Party. We had a great experience with their hall manager Stephen, he was very responsive and easy to work with. He was so prompt with email replays and very helpful, provided answers to all our questions. Very beautiful spacious hall. There's also a nice playground outside for the kids. The only downside is that there is no AC but they have a big fan which helped a bit. We just had very active party and lots of dances so we warmed up:)
Definitely recommend the hall and will book again for future events. Our guest’s also really liked the hall.

A few things to know if you're hosting an event here:
The venue is run by the city and they have agreements in place with a rowing club to use the facilities. You will have people in and out using the bathrooms as if they are open to public despite your having paid for the space. You can call the city office to dispute this but you will have to fight for exclusive use of the space.

There is a lot of junk hanging around the downstairs rooms. Chalkboards, drum sets, broken chairs. It will not be moved.

After 11pm, a security guard is stationed inside the venue. This is disconcerting because guests automatically assume that there is an issue. However, it is nice to have someone watching the door and you do not have to wait for someone to arrive when you're ready to leave.

If you are rentjing for more than a few hours, you will have to call the city each time you want to arrive or depart the venue. They do not give you a key. You can only access as of 9h00 - basically the same hours as Maison du Brasserie museum.

The fridge is residential not commercial. Same for the stove. You will have to turn on the bar fridges upstairs when you arrive so that they chill before your event, otherwise prepare for warm drinks.

The views and access to the canal boardwalk are amazing. The stone walls make for beautiful photo backdrops and the 2nd floor terrace is a great feature.

Lovely lake shore view. Clean, airy and has a nice secure balcony. Great venue for medium or small conferences

Went to a wedding here in September and the place was spectacular. The old vintage look the building has updated by modern decor inside made the place very cozy and enjoyable . Not sure if the staff is always the same however if so they were on point and very welcoming . I would highly recommend this place for someone looking for a wedding or just to rent out for corporate occasions etc .

Historic building by the water. Great for intimate wedding/gatherings. Small kitchen for caterers. The parking lot is public and can not be reserved for private functions.

Nice location but very small parking for a reception hall.

We recently had a wedding at Lago and it was everything we wanted and more!

From the very beginning Gyneya and her staff were amazing. They are very detail oriented and do everything in their power to take all the stress off of you and onto them. Your wedding is their priority and they want your vision to come to life. Their pricing is very fair and transparent.

We were in the Vista room (upstairs) with around 80 guests and it was the perfect size. The dance floor was able to be open all night and no tables needed to be moved after dinner.

The food is phenomenal! Many of our guests made specific points to us on how great the food was. And as a bonus the portion sizes are large too!

I used to work for a catering company as a server for weddings and have been to many venues. I can say this is the best venue I've ever been to and cannot recommend it enough!

The cheesecake is also out of this world!! We had a handful of guests make the point to let us know it was the best cheesecake they ever had.

If you're still reading this, stop! And book your date already before it's booked up.

We held our wedding reception at Lago this past spring, and it was exactly what we had prayed for. The space was inviting and well-organized, with a sensible layout that worked well for our guests. We especially appreciated its interior industrial design and beautiful views of Dow’s Lake.

Planning with Gyneya and her team — including Kayly, Kim, and others — made all the difference. They were welcoming, efficient, and generous. Even during our reception, Lago’s staff members were incredibly kind, considerate, and accommodating, all of which contributed to a smooth and enjoyable evening.

The food was excellent — fresh, well-seasoned, and beautifully plated. Our guests' favorite dishes included the fried halloumi cheese skewer hors d'oeuvres, the heirloom tomato salad appetizer, and the braised beef short rib entrée. Gyneya and her team were very flexible with our dietary requests. Service throughout the night was attentive and well-paced.

We're so pleased to have chosen Lago for our wedding reception and would confidently recommend it to any engaged couple looking for a great planning experience and a memorable wedding celebration!

My Daughter got married there last night and it was perfect. The venue was just the right size for the event, we had the service first and while the family left for pictures, the staff set up for appetizers and dinner. Appetizers were a selection of deep fried cheese sticks and spring rolls etc. they were all done perfectly and sauces were delicious. Dinner did not disappoint either, there was a choice of salmon, strip loin steak or risotto. They again were perfect. Crème Brûlée was the finishing touch and was spot on. The staff and the facility was so polite and polished I couldn’t say enough about them. Gyneya coordinated a fabulous evening. As for the room itself, the lighting was beautiful and a perfect backdrop was a warm evening on Dow’s lake. I hope this doesn’t come across as AI because it was real and for our Daughter and Son-in-Law it was perfect. Thank you.

Amazing wedding venue! Staff were amazing all night :) Food was delicious. It’s nice that it’s on the water so you can hangout outside if you want as well.

My husband and I got married here last month. This place is a hidden gem in my opinion. You get a whole wedding package, amazing food choices, and the staff goes through the whole planning process and schedule with you. You bring your own decorations but they set everything up for you. It’s also so affordable compared to other venues. They made the whole experience easy.

We couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue! From start to finish, Tony , Pat and Sonia were absolutely amazing. The service was absolutely exceptional—professional, attentive, and genuinely caring.( request Silvana- she’s the absolute BEST) Every detail was taken care of, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy the day.
And the food? Incredible! Our guests are still raving about it. Every course was beautifully presented and delicious, with options to suit all dietary needs.
If you're looking for a venue that combines top-tier service with unforgettable food, this is the place. Highly recommended!

Was at Chateaubriand for a wedding and food and staff was amazing. The staff was great ready to serve and help us out throughout the evening. 5start ratting. On the other hand the food was so good I could of had seconds on all the servings. The chef’s dishes were so tasty unbelievable. Not too salty not too greasy. Just perfect. And the quality of the food served was excellent. The sauce in the pasta was not cut with water like many halls do today. The appetizer were delicious and didn’t taste the freezer for once. I strongly suggest this Hall for parties. Way too good Chateaubriand. 5star reception Hall. Thank you

We went there for a wedding a few weeks ago and it was phenomenal. I'm not sure if it was the marrying couple's requests, but the food was unreal. Amazing! So much of it and it was very good. The variety the quantity it was just all there. I've been to a lot of weddings and this was really exceptional. The bar was open. The buffet was a continental buffet. It was really special and really amazing

This past Saturday, we celebrated our wedding at Le Châteaubriand. The food and service was phenomenal. All night we received compliments from our guests!

My husband Nestor and I want to thank Pat, Tony, and Sonia for all their hard work and professionalism. They were always there when we had questions and went beyond what was asked for. The day of the wedding, we were completely stress free as Steve and Tony communicated directly with our vendors and took care of everything! That’s what mattered most to us.

I highly recommend Le Châteaubriand for any of your events. Thank you again to everyone at Le Châteaubriand. You made our dream come true!

We had our wedding reception at Châteaubriand, and words cannot express how grateful we are for the most amazing night of our lives. From start to finish, Pat, Tony , and Sonia went above and beyond to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. Their guidance, professionalism, and care made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable.

The staff at Châteaubriand was exceptional—every single detail was handled with such attentiveness and warmth. Our guests are still raving about the beautiful atmosphere, and the incredible food.

It truly was the best night we could ever ask for, and we will always be thankful to Pat, Tony, and the entire Châteaubriand team for making our wedding unforgettable. Highly recommend to any couple looking for the perfect wedding venue!

We recently had the pleasure of photographing a wedding at Mont Blanc Reception Hall, and it genuinely felt like a hidden treasure! From the moment we stepped inside, the warm atmosphere and distinctive charm of the venue drew me in. If you’re on the hunt for a place that combines both character and sophistication, Mont Blanc Reception Hall is an excellent choice! We are really looking forward to returning to capture more beautiful memories in this delightful space!

My wife and I had an amazing experience for our wedding at Le Mont Blanc. Working with Angie, Enza and Luciano was a breeze, they are always available to help you organize your event. The service was good and our guests are still raving about the quantity and quality of the food! Great choice for a venue

Excellent experience at this beautiful location. Wedding was fantastic, the event hall was elegant. Service was professional and excellent. The food was definitely high-end quality Italian!

The barista Ramona was a highlight. A beautiful venue I would recommend for any special event.

Food was good, first floor salon was very small and extremely hot, Parking a bit away (end of the street). service not five star asI was drinking my wine and sudenly the guy came and pick my glass cuz he wanted to empty the table. Samething happened to my appetizer dish.

The salon is absolutely stunning!
The old church architecture creates such a unique and serene atmosphere and intricate details. A blend of the classic aesthetic with modern salon amenities is perfection.

Booking this venue for our wedding was the best decision we ever made. We’ve seen weddings at many locations in Montreal and surrounding areas including la Maison Principale, the Ritz, Sugar Shacks and others. We took a gamble by booking the Salon as we had never seen a wedding there, but that was a bit of the appeal. We wanted something special and unique. In order of priority for us, here are our highlights.

Where to begin with the food! Be it the cocktail period, the main dish or the dessert table, everything was phenomenal. Quality AND quantity were amazing (and I have Egyptian parents who won’t shy away from complaining about food)! We never had a fish option at a wedding with so much richness that it held itself against the filet mignon in terms of quality and flavour (we served the Miso Cod). On top of all that, we had many guests with severe allergies and they all came to tell us how this was one of the first weddings where they didn’t get an allergic reaction proving the quality and organization of their kitchen.

Talking about organization, Danielle (the venue’s owner) and Emilie (the included wedding planner) were both amazing at giving us the guidance we needed to make our day perfect specifically for us. Danielle was mostly there in the big picture planning and Emilie on the week/day of. Because the day of the wedding is so important, Emilie was the highlight. No need for another wedding planner, she’s the real deal. Organizing the timing of the ceremony (which we did on site), moving things along, coordinating with the vendors, remembering little details, fixing bumps in the road and going out of her way to get someone to pick up our midnight meal from McDonalds, she did it all with the utmost skill! We couldn’t tell her thank you enough!

Last point to highlight, which initially wasn’t so important, but was highlighted by so many of our guest was the lights and sound in the hall. The lighting changed throughout the night and was always beautifully adjusted to set the right mood. The stereo system was never too loud to make you feel uncomfortable, but was heard all across the room. The speeches were so crisp that recordings of it on iPhones were perfectly understood (something rarely seen). Our DJ hooked up to their system and the rest was easy.

I could go on, but really I’m not including negative points as my wife and I couldn’t think of any! This was truly a magical day made extra special by the amount of quality work that The Salon Richmond team put into it. Thank you to everyone!!

I would highly recommend this hall for any event. Le Salon Richmond is breathtaking. The lighting, sound & overall ambiance are among the best I've seen in Montreal. It's also a nice feature that the lighting is adjustable throughout the event. I was hired independently to film a corporate event and I witnessed the guests visibly enjoying themselves. Their team felt professional & I also felt that the staff was present for the guests' needs. The bar service was in demand all night and they delivered. Also has a nice stage. Great building for a wedding.

Beautiful old church that will have you feeling like you entered a party in Blade. Spacious place to host private events like company parties.

This space is so beautiful, peaceful and the sound, accoustics travel well throughout the space. I really enjoyed my experience here and am looking forward to returning. I would definitely consider renting the space for a big event.

This was a very nice museum, but definitely overshadowed by Heritage Park.
The staff were very friendly, and the house itself was well cared for.
There was a great number of historic artifacts in the museum, and the front terraced lawn is very beautiful.

We liked this place, especially interiors, which is so beautiful with antique furniture telling the stories of how people were living back then there is also a history of the Logheed family. I was really inspired by her wife personality. Great venue for small event or date night.

I love this museum. I really have a good time knowing about the history of Alberta. I went there during Christmas, however the staff said depending of the season they change the decoration. The museum has a small vintage shop where you can get some sourvenirs

Constructed in 1891, this grand sandstone mansion was originally the residence of Senator James Alexander Lougheed and his wife, Isabella Clarke Hardisty Lougheed. The house stands as a testament to Calgary's rich history and architectural heritage.

Cool place attended a wedding there was pretty sweet everything was great the staff was friendly everything was cool they had a great job set up

I had an amazing experience working with Effie. I hosted my bestfriend bridal shower at luluthia design party room and Effie brought my vision to life. Thank you so much for an amazing experience and memories that would last a lifetime

I did my baby shower in Luluthia Party Room and everything was great from start to finish! It was easy to communicate with Effie, and she did most of the organizing so I had nothing to worry about. I just sent her some inspiration of what I want and I told her my expectations, and she did everything I expected and even went beyond! The decor was BEAUTIFUL, the service was excellent and the organizing was all done well. I brought my own food and she took care of all the presentation, setting up the table, the decor, and she had one staff available throughout the entire event. I highly recommend this venue for small events, I will definitely go back for more events of mine!

I organized my daughter’s first birthday at Luluthia party room in April! It was absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond to meet our expectations and even exceeded them! Thank you so much for making my little girls day so much more than it could have been.

I recently hosted an event at Luluthia Party Room, and I cannot praise them enough for their outstanding service and exceptional venue.

I cannot recommend Luluthia Party Room highly enough. Whether you're planning a wedding, corporate event, or any special occasion, this venue will exceed your expectations. Thank you to everyone at Luluthia Party Room for making our event a resounding success.

For all your floral requirements, this is the premier destination. Furthermore, they offer a party room and a balloon shop. I highly recommend this establishment for parties and exquisite floral arrangements.

The management, staff, kitchen and security did a fabulous job on accommodating with all the needs . We 100% recommend this place again for hosting any sort of events. Thanks Magnolia Banquet hall

We had Wedding/Reception at Magnolia Banquet Hall! It was a full crowd that was amazed all night long with the design, the service, the food, and special attention to detail that was given. Magnolia Banquet Hall ownership, management and staff are nothing short of amazing! Their service is above and beyond what is expected. Even though our party was as organized as can be, it would not have been the same if we had chosen any other location. Magnolia Banquet Hall helped make our wedding the best event so far! We will definitely be referring all of our friends and family and be returning for all of our future events!

Thank you to Magnolia Banquet Hall!

We recently had our daughter’s wedding at the Magnolia Banquet Hall. Just wanted to say that everything from start to finish was first class. We asked Jimmy (Manager/Event Co-ordinator) to do “family style” meal – this is where all the food is served on each table. As we wanted an Indian catering menu, mixed with some Arab style food, this was not an easy request – especially with 350 guests!

We had a few meetings with Jimmy before the event and he took care of everything from the timing, catering and to coordinating with the decorators. Our decorators had great cooperation from Jimmy and his team, and when we arrived at the hall before the wedding started, everything looked amazing. We also liaised with the DJ – who was great to work with and was very experienced.

The food turned out even better than it was at the food tasting. So many of our guests complimented us on how great the food was, and how much they loved the hot appetizer station during the cocktail hour (see photos.) The kitchen timed everything exactly to our agenda and as soon as the speeches were complete, the food was being served on the tables.

This was the first time that Jimmy had done “family style” service and it was truly amazing and beyond our expectations. The food arrived hot at each table and it looked like there was 1 server for every 2 tables. The food arrived promptly, and our guests were very impressed with this service. (It sure beats lining up at a buffet station, especially for 350 people.) All of our guests were impressed, and we were extremely happy that we used the Magnolia Hall for our daughters wedding. I would recommend them in a heart beat. Thank you to Jimmy and his amazing team.

Thank you Magnolia for making my mom’s birthday so special. Your staff are amazing.
From planning to execution, everything ran smoothly and exceeded our expectations.
The decor you provided for the event was stunning, elegant, and exactly the atmosphere we had hoped for. Thank you so much for helping us create precious memories.

Second time visiting and I already know there will be a third, a fourth, and countless more. Every dish was a work of art—creative, perfectly balanced, and absolutely delicious. My favorite was the pad see ew, and I was so caught up enjoying it that I completely forgot to take a picture. The atmosphere is pure elegance, from the romantic lighting to the plush, comfortable chairs. Our waitress, Barbara, was warm, knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure. I’m already counting down the days until I can come back for brunch.

This was our third visit and it is ALWAYS fabulous. Great atmosphere, wonderful service, and food with flavour combinations that are pure delight. We liked every dish we tried - three different appetizers and three mains. The espresso martini was also a hit. Very lucky that Stittsville has a place of this calibre in our area.

Delicious food, great atmosphere and amazing, knowledgeable and friendly staff!
Me and my husband decided to try our first ever tasting menu and they did not disappoint! Great serving size, and the server (maybe the owner) explained every dish and ingredient to us. He also confirmed nothing was overly spicy as I couldn't handle spice and was willing to change the later dishes to accommodate my palette.
Will have to come back to try other dishes and pairings!

I was clearing space on my phone by deleting photos when I realized I had never shared my experience at Next. I celebrated my birthday there two years ago, and the memory is so valuable that I feel it’s worth sharing—even after all this time. we went for their menu tasting. The place was beautiful and the food was delicious But the most remarkable part of Next is Michael, the chef and owner. He’s a genuinely great person who makes every guest’s experience truly special

Our 1st time eating here, Service goes beyond for you!! The meal, salmon was delicious found the sauce a little salty for my personal taste but my taste buds for the app, main and dessert wanted more. Didn't get to see the washrooms, really liked how pride was evident every where.

We had our Valentine’s Day dinner here and everything was spectacular! The food was to die for - seriously we loved everything. The drinks were great too. What made it an extra special night is how above and beyond the staff went to make our night memorable. They customized everyone’s menus to include both people’s names so you can take it home as a souvenir, and they took a Polaroid picture of each couple for them to keep. Service was amazing too - everything came out fairly quickly and our waitress was so kind. The atmosphere and vibe was nothing like any other restaurant I’ve been too; it’s hard to describe, looking like you are almost in a house. It’s a huge space with only ~17 tables, making it feel very exclusive. It was my first time here and I would 100% recommend. Hope to visit again in the future!

We recently celebrated a birthday party at Parlor Restaurant, and it was a great experience! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was eclectic and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a special evening.

The food was absolutely outstanding. The Tuna Tataki was a standout—prepared beautifully with a delicate balance of flavors that melted in our mouths. The scallops were another highlight—perfectly cooked and paired with a delicious sauce that brought everything together beautifully.

Beyond the amazing food, the service truly elevated our experience. Our waiter, Aba, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. He made sure everything was perfect and went above and beyond to make the night special.

We are looking forward to returning!

Rather ingenious higher end bistro that really leans into its eclectic aesthetic. Love the interior design and focus on unique dishes/drinks. We tried the tuna tataki which was fine then went with the hen and brisket. Both mains were well seasoned and sauced enjoyably. It's a fancy place and they take care of you well but do expect a finer dining price point.

Amazing staff, definitely delicious food. Lovely indeed.

We went to Parlour with a large group to celebrate a birthday and really had a memorable experience. Our server Allison went above and beyond! The food was delicious, with plenty of crowd pleasing dishes (gluten free options, lots of veg dishes. I loved the number of options they had for zero proof cocktails for those not drinking. The location is stunning!

Rajveer banquet hall hands down one of the BEST in Calgary! The owners are absolutely incredible — kind, hardworking, and always going above and beyond to deliver exactly what you need (and more!). Their dedication and passion truly show in everything they do. They don’t just execute your vision — they elevate it, adding their own creativity and influence to make your event unforgettable. No one can beat their energy, service, or commitment. They make every party a dream come true. Highly, highly recommended!

I attended a party at Rajveer Banquet Hall this past weekend and had such a great time! The hall was clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated. The staff were super friendly and made sure everything ran smoothly. Food was delicious and served on time, and the vibe overall was perfect for a celebration. Would definitely recommend this place for any event!

My husband and I had our reception at Rajveer Hall last week and it was amazing. It was a great pleasure working with the hall, management really did everything they could to bring our reception vision to life. We received so many compliments with how the hall was set up - many guests saying it was the best they had ever seen. The food at Rajveer Hall is the best out of any banquet hall venue in Calgary hands down. We had the best time at our reception here!
