Winnipeg Wedding Venues
Cost?
I happened to stumble upon a thread online Jan.6/2023 on how much people were spending on venues. So here are some screen shots of some responses that are very valuable.
Advice and questions to ask
My personal advice for wedding couples doing research on a wedding venue:
Book early
Booking your wedding venues is the number one priority once you have your wedding date. This is because wedding venues do get booked at least 12-24 months in advance just like wedding photographers.
Research
Also choosing the right wedding venues will depend on how big your guest list is, the weather, location, and many other things. Therefore do your due diligence and research them thoroughly so you end up with the best fit for you.
Winnipeg Wedding Costs
I have a whole blog post on how much weddings in Winnipeg cost. Make sure to check it out.

Guest Count and Budget
Finding the right wedding venue will depend on a few things and need to be determined before you look. The first thing I would want to know is, how many guests are coming. The second thing would be my wedding budget and what I can afford in Winnipeg.
A lot of wedding venues don't allow outside catering or alcohol, so that has to be taken into consideration. According to my wedding survey, most reception venues range from $6000-$30,000, with, and without catering.
Vibe/Style
I'd also want to have a place that fits the vibe I'm going for and theme. For instance some venues scream laid back, country/farmhouse, and others can be more classical and prestigious. Picking the right one will have to fit your personalities as well.
Furthermore, if nothing fits your bill, you can always get creative and find a uniquely private location. A location for your ceremony or reception that maybe others haven't thought of. For instance, a cozy backyard wedding at your friend's house in the country can always be an option. And likewise, your favorite restaurant for an intimate reception is common as well. This will depend on how large your wedding is of course.
Some more questions to ask yourself about winnipeg wedding venues are:
- Can people get to it and back home safely after a night of drinking?
- Is parking an issue?
- Can I have both wedding ceremony and reception close by? Too much travel can cause extra costs and burn time especially for photos and video.
- How many bars does it have? Will my guests be able to get drinks without too much stress and waiting around.
- Is it easy to find? Do I need to put up signs on the way to it or draw out a detailed map with instructions to guests?
- Is it easily accessible for the elderly or handicapped?
Destination wedding venues
For destination weddings do your research if they have plan B's at the resort in case of bad weather. By doing a little research you can find some very cool wedding venues off the resort as well. For instance, old churches or ruins that date back maybe a thousand years.
With that said, there are many beautiful resorts that look absolutely amazing and throw awesome weddings.
Here's a great list I found of the 50 best destination wedding locations by the Knot for some ideas.
Wedding Locations abroad
Finding a nice waterfall as a backdrop or a canyon can be possible. However, you should always seek the advice of a wedding planner in the country and area to make sure you get the right permits and permissions. Otherwise, you could be looking at some hefty penalties and fines. Breaking laws in other countries can also mean jail time so please make sure you seek professional advice.
