  Guests still raving about our wedding!

  We booked the Spice Factory for our October 2023 wedding and we could not be more happy with this decision. Our guests still continue to say how this was one of the best weddings they had been too and could not get over how gorgeous the space is. All the staff are so incredibly helpful and the coordinator Jana was amazing to work with. We loved that we did not have to buy a ton of decor as they have a room full of items donated from previous weddings to use. Plus, the space itself is so beautiful with the exposed brick, the Edison lights, and the detailing of the ceilings that decor was not something you needed. The food was also amazing and the desserts were to die for. Highly recommend this venue!

  The best wedding venue and amazing staff

  We recently had our wedding at the beautiful Spice Factory. It was the absolute perfect place for us to be married. The space is so unique with having three different floors to use, making the transition from ceremony to cocktails to dinner and reception seamless. The food and service exceeded our expectations. The staff were exceptionally helpful, from always being so kind in answering our questions to going above and beyond to recreate our favorite cocktail. We couldn’t recommend this venue more.

  Terriss Corrado Wedding

  From the moment we showed up for our first tour, to the morning after our wedding Jana and her team were incredible. The food, bar menu and every accommodation they made for us was perfect. They helped us with everything, promptly responded with answers to questions and even helped us with things we missed. Felt more like being around family than a business. We highly highly recommend this incredibly beautiful venue!

  Perfect Venue for elegant yet casual

  My partner and I were looking for a wedding venue that could host our ceremony, cocktail, and reception. Spice Factory was amazing during our year of planning. They were so collaborative and always focused on making our ideas and dreams happen. On the day of, the staff was very attentive and ensured our guests were looked after including well fed and quickly served at the bar. Jana and her team are amazing at making it all happen on the day of. We had 0 wedding regrets about our venue and wish we could do it all again.

  Best decision we made

  If you are considering booking The Spice Factory for your wedding, do not hesitate! Our wedding could not have been what it was without The Spice Factory staff. We original booked our wedding for August 2021, but we had to reschedule due to the pandemic. The Spice Factory was more than accommodating and we actually got more than we originally paid for due to all the amazing updates the venue made during the pandemic. Haley, the venue cooridinator, is phenomenal!! She's is quick to respond and was available for anything I needed. She has lots of great insight, experience and opinions. Much like Haley, the rest of the staff are great. Chef Dez and the team in the kitchen work quickly and prepared an amazing meal for our guests. We loved having access to the entire venue. We had our ceremony on the top floor, dinner on the second, and finished the night with dancing and drinks on the first floor and patio. The bridal suite is massive and has lots of great natural light which our hair and makeup team really appreciated. The venue has lots of great decor available and I was able to setup early which made the day of so much more enjoyable. The venue is beautiful and gives the perfect modern/industrial feel. Thanks to The Spice Factory, our wedding day will be a day that we remember forever.

  Run don't walk...

  Words cannot fully describe our experience with The Spice Factory.
  We booked our wedding for September 2021 back in 2019, before the pandemic. A world away from where we are now.
  
  With all the stress of planning a wedding through Covid-19, starting a new job and just watching the world burn, I was an absolute nervous wreck and very disorganized. The on-site wedding planner I had met before the pandemic was no longer working there, so I met the new planner, Haley, in the months prior to the wedding.
  
  Haley was an absolute DREAM to work with. (Truly the entire staff was incredible, but Haley deserves a shoutout for dealing with my many emails and phone calls.)
  Throughout this entire process she was just a call away. Always helpful, efficient and kind. She was constantly checking in with my MOH the day of the wedding to ensure everything was running smoothly.
  Thank you Haley so very much for all you did for me leading up to the wedding!
  
  The Food. Where do I begin? Absolutely delicious. Our guests were blown away by the cocktail hour and the dinner. Chef Dez and his team have curated a number of gorgeous menus and were so accommodating with any substitutions/adjustments that we needed. (Sick getting a sad, damp portobello mushroom as the veg/gluten-free option at most venues? That won't happen here.)
  
  The Bar & Service. The bar staff were so much fun and our guests had the best time with them while ordering their drinks. They brought so much personality and fun to their service while being very professional.
  
  For the sake of writing a review that people will actually read, I should wrap it up here.
  You will not be disappointed with entrusting your wedding/event with the team at The Spice Factory. 10/10 all across the board.
  
  TLDR; Our wedding day was perfect, and The Spice Factory was perfect :)

  Incredible in every way

  Planned a wedding in the middle of a pandemic and I could NOT have asked for a better venue to go through it with. Throughout the entire process and with ongoing changes in restrictions/lockdowns etc. they remained professional, reasonable, punctual and informative. Haley and Chef Dez were kind, knowledgeable and incredibly accommodating.
  The day of was amazing, set up was beautiful, the flow of the day was well organized, even when using all three floors. The staff on the day of were great, guests were raving about the kindness of servers and bartenders. Food was delicious and beautifully presented.
  The mood and ambiance of the Spice Factory is unmatched for a true Hamilton wedding experience. I would recommend this venue a hundred times over.

  No flexibility

  The Spice Factory is absolutely beautiful and we were looking forward to having our wedding here in November 2020. However due to all the uncertainty surrounding COVID 19 we made the decision to postpone our wedding to 2021. This is where everything went wrong and the staff and owner at the Spice Factory continue to be unreasonable and refuse to honour our contract. When we originally signed our contract in August 2019 we included the option to bring our own outside caterer in the signed contract and put down a deposit with both the Spice Factory and our outside caterer. When we decided to postpone our wedding due to these extraordinary circumstances surrounding the coronavirus our caterer and other vendors were extremely accommodating. The same cannot be said for the Spice Factory. If we wanted to postpone our wedding and still use the outside caterer as per our contract we were told we could only reschedule to a date between January-April 2021 and that if we wanted a date between May-December 2021 we would have to use the Spice Factory in house caterer since they are planning on phasing out using outside catering. We then asked for our deposit back because that would not work for us and we thought they would be understanding due to everything going on with COVID 19. If we were to use their in house caterer it would be significantly more expensive than using the caterer we had already hired plus we would loose our deposit with the caterer we had put a deposit down with. We also asked that they please make an exception due to COVID 19 and let us use our outside caterer for a date between May-December 2021. They still refuse to accommodate. We do not think we are being unreasonable as no one could have expected this to happen.

  The Spice Factory was magical on our wedding day!

  The Spice Factory was an amazing venue for our wedding ceremony and reception. It is spacious and accessible, and allowed for an effortless flow through our day with the multi-level event spaces. The backdrops this building offers really shocked us, and the staff throughout the day were amazing, very accommodating to our guests needs. Chef Dez also did not disappoint - the food was awesome, and our guests were offered GF, V and Veg options. Highly recommend!

  Perfect little COVID wedding

  We hired the Spice Factory for our June 2020 wedding but of course, had to postpone due to COVID19. Spice Factory was great during the pandemic - they let us choose a backup date anytime in the next year. Choosing to be optimistic, we went for an early September date and are so glad we did.
  Spice Factory adapted to the new regulations and let us know what the new reality would look like. We worked with Natasha who designed floor plans to match our bubbles for both tables and ceremony. She also helped us do almost everything on the patio, flipping it after the ceremony so our guests could stay outside. While we lucked out with weather Natasha mentioned that they'll be putting an awning in next year so that more people can be outside no matter the weather.
  Our wedding motto was 'whatever is easiest' which although that got complicated with the pandemic, Spic Factory met our every expectation of easy. I loved that they provided everything - linens, furniture, some of the decor, and beautiful getting ready space. It's centrally located and they are so flexible with what they allow you to do in the space (we brought a ping-pong table).
  It was heartbreaking to change our plans but in the end, I could not have been more pleased with our wedding. Thank you, Natasha and Des, for your hard work leading up to the wedding and on the day of.
