I just had my wedding at L'Espace Canal last weekend, & what an incredible experience! From planning the event with the venue coordinator, Alexa, to the flexibility with menu creation with chef Stuart, the communication & coordination was so professional & seamless. We also had an amazing day of experience because of Jaime, Tony, Jonathan, & Rohit. We are filled with gratitude that the whole team made our wedding so memorable & perfect!!!! We got so many compliments from our guests on the food, drinks, & service.
Superbe endroit extérieur pour le mariage ! Le restaurant était correct, mais les Wellingtons étaient beaucoup trop cuits.
Au niveau du mariage, nous avons été déçus par l'organisation, le planificateur a eu des ratés & son comportement ne nous a pas tout le temps plus. Concernant le DJ, la déception était immense, il a joué ce que nous avions demandé à ne pas jouer & n'a pas joué ce que nous avons demandé. Il était en outre terriblement mal habillé pour un mariage également.
Moralité : un superbe endroit, mais à refaire, nous ferions différemment.
We recently had our wedding held at Espace Canal this past weekend & it was the most beautiful day. We were very lucky to have worked with Alexandra for many months leading up to the big day as she helped us a lot with any questions we had, many many emails were answered. She is a pleasure to work with & goes above & beyond the call of duty. We also thank her & Jaime for making sure that everything ran super smoothly on the day of as our coordinator. The wait staff & our Maître D (Toni) gave excellent service & people were very happy with all of the food that was served. It is a beautiful venue that is perfect for an outdoor ceremony held along the Lachine Canal with a beautiful gazebo in the garden area, making it all very magical. We could not have asked for a better wedding & highly recommend this place for a great venue location!
I had my wedding here & it was incredible! The staff is so helpful on the day of, you feel like a guest at your own wedding! & i didnt even have a wedding planner!
The food was delicious & all my guests said so. Even with a mishap with communication with the DJ, the music was great & the night was unforgettable.
Ambroisie is so gorgeous, it really is a beautiful place for a wedding.
Thank you to Tony, Jaime, Alexandra, & all the wait staff for making my wedding incredible.
A beautiful place, with a cozy elegance. I had the pleasure of flowering a wedding here, bud vase centerpieces, & a wild-style bridal bouquet. To date one of my favourite locations to flower. I also returned on another occasion to dine with friends at the restaurant, I absolutely loved the french onion soup, & the steak frites was very good.
Could not have asked for a better wedding venue. The coordinators & staff were kind & professional from our first tour of the location to when we were closing out the reception. We were able to have a menu that was everything we ever wanted. The food was so good that we had multiple guests ask if they could take some home.
Multiple times throughout the night, the staff brought food specifically for my wife & I to make sure we were eating. They were making sure to take care of us while we were occupied on taking care of our guests.
Unfortunately, it did rain on our wedding day so we could not have the ceremony outside. Luckily our venue coordinators, Alexandra & Alice, along with our personal coordinator Steph, came together to set up the most amazing indoor ceremony that we will remember forever.
We can say in full confidence that this is THE place to get married.

Superbe endroit, personnel accueillant. Seul bémol, le terrain n'est pas privatif & les passants viennent avec leurs animaux pour leurs besoins... pendant une noce... c'était un peu spécial.
