A DREAM wedding venue!

My husband and I fell in love with Belcroft from the first walk through! It’s the most gorgeous venue that has everything you could possibly want.
The team at Belcroft is what makes it truly amazing through! They are there for whatever you need, and really just want you to have the most perfect wedding day.
I would 100% recommend getting married there!

Belcroft made our dreams come true!

Wow, just wow. This was the most beautiful wedding venue, we got married on the lane way under the trees and it felt like a fairy tale. Our guests couldn’t get over the beauty of this oasis. Beyond the grounds and amenities, the staff at Belcroft were unbelievable! They thought of everything and helped the day run so smoothly. Rachael even brought me and my husband a plate of food before the reception because she knew we’d be so busy! Everyone was just so kind, they are meant to work in an industry based around love. Thank you for the best day of our lives.

Nice venue

The venue was beautiful, Rachael was one of our contacts and she was very helpful & super nice. Natalie, our day of coordinator, was also wonderful. While the wedding itself was incredible and the venue was absolutely beautiful, there were definitely bumps along the way. In our contract that we signed it said all linens were included in the Belcroft package. A couple months before the wedding we found out that was not the case and we had to pay another couple thousand in linens, which we had not budgeted for and were completely caught by surprise. When we addressed it with Katie, one of our contacts, she was incredibly rude about it and basically told us that linens were built into the other caterer's cost but because we didn't go with that caterer (we were given a choice of 2 or 3) we had to pay for our linens, which was news to us. She was very rude and dismissive. We also had A LOT of issues with their bar manager, Alysse. She took forever to answer our questions via email, the meeting we had with her was completely disorganized. She didn't give us all of the information at our meeting so we were made to think we had to purchase our own sparkling wine & pay a corkage fee when really they had their own sparkling wine that we weren't told about. She then claimed my Mom dismissed it and said we'd bring our own instead (why would we pay a $20/bottle corkage fee if we didn't have to?). It took her 2 months to get us the summary/information we asked for at our meeting and sent us the invoice with less than 24 hours to pay it (we had asked on more than one occasion for a cost breakdown as other than the package outline she gave us we had no idea what the bar would cost). The staff during the reception were great, though definitely a little overzealous. They packed up our photo guestbook very early, I had multiple people tell us they didn't get to sign it because Belcroft had packed it up already. We also had beautiful glass names 3D printed for all of our guests for their favour, most of our guests and both Spencer and I had our table cleared and said names cleared with the table and thrown out by Belcroft before we could grab them and bring them home. I was very disappointed as I was planning on keeping mine & Spencer's names as a keepsake from our wedding, not to mention it was our favour for our guests. I contacted Belcroft the next day as at first I thought our names had just gotten packed away in a box and they had said there was nothing in the lost & found so staff would have thrown them all away. Very disappointing & wasteful. Overall, the venue was absolutely beautiful but it was definitely one of the more expensive venues and I expected a bit more from (most of) the staff. Rachael & Natalie were great, if I were rating just the 2 of them it would be all 5 stars. Unfortunately, that's not the case.

Beautiful Wedding at Belcroft

Belcroft was the perfect wedding venue for us. We enjoyed the outdoor and indoor (tent) areas. The bride’s suite was the perfect space. Belcroft allowed us to set up and bring what we needed. They also helped with the set up and cleanup and they answered any questions we had. Rachel was such a help on our wedding day. The grounds are also very beautiful!

The BEST day!

Belcroft went above and beyond in every sense to give Simon and I the best day of our lives! The staff were so accommodating, the venue is stunning (and decorates itself!), and the entire planning process was so simple. They are experts at what they do. Even though they've done plenty of weddings, we felt so special and that they wanted to make our day the best day possible. We felt like we were the only wedding this entire season- that's how dedicated they are! I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a one-stop-shop, amazing atmosphere, great staff, and the best wedding you've ever been to! :) Thank you, Belcroft!

Absolutely Amazing!

We had our wedding in the Marquee Tent at Belcroft Estate in the beginning of October and it was absolutely magical. From the very beginning, the staff at Belcroft made us feel completely comfortable and taken care of. Both Rebecca and Becca helped ease a lot of the anxiety and stress that can come with wedding planning and were always available to answer any questions I had. Becca was a true star in helping making our special day run so smoothly, everything felt effortless the day of and it was all thanks to her. We received so many compliments on the wedding venue especially—it is absolutely gorgeous. I am so happy that we chose Belcroft!

This place is a dream

The most beautiful place I've ever been to for a wedding. The grounds are actually breathtaking, the guests and photographers couldn't believe their eyes. There were too many places to take photos!! This is a nature lovers dream spot! We chose the tent venue ( there is a barn venue aswell which is just as beautiful ) Rebecca was our wedding coordinator and she made the whole experience smooth sailing. She was organized and so quick to respond to every questions and emails. She was so helpful throughout the whole process and the day of.

The testimonials you're about to read on this website speak for themselves and Belcroft Estates and its stunning property are still gaining momentum!

Jeff & I took a tiny bit of time to book Belcroft. This wedding was the first costly endeavor we were jumping into. From the moment we set foot onto the property, we couldn't look back. Belcroft is nothing short of magical.

Belcroft had just built their tent marquee and with every visit a new element had been built and added making it a breathtaking venue. We booked and never looked back.

Belcroft comes with a fleet of preferred vendors whom we made quick friends with. Each and every one of them were an absolute pleasure to work with. From the Spa to the event planner (Victoria Potter) to the caterer (Cabral Catering) to their DJ (Gary G) the entire day was seamless, relaxing, gorgeous and just an absolute pleasure.

There is sinceere enthusiasm and passion that the owners and staff live and breath, and with due right. Everything from the first steps of booking, right up until days
after the wedding date, everyone is smiling, happy to assist and ready to help.

Their hospitality is bar-none. We know we are valued and they did everything to make our wedding ours.

If you are looking for a STUNNING backdrop, GORGEOUS landscape, AMAZING pictures, and a HEARTFELT team, book and don't look back!

Brides..grooms, Seriously. We're real people here giving a real testimonial.. Everyone needs a bit of Belcroft Estates in their wedding. Our guests were blown away by the venue. We're just sad that our wedding day has passed because The entire process was an absolute pleasure.

We will recommend from now to the end of days and support Belcroft on all your endeavors. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts for helping us throw one of the most gorgeous ceremonies and the most top notch reception we've ever attended! We're forever grateful!

Magical Fall Wedding!

We had such an amazing wedding this past weekend at Belcroft Estate! From the time we booked with them to the day of our wedding, we had such a good experience. On the day of our wedding, everything ran very smoothly and the property was absolutely beautiful for our magical Fall wedding.
