Awarded Best of Zola
The Willis House is a gorgeous wedding venue with a naturally beautiful house and landscape, tucked away in North York. Lisa and Todd put countless hours of work into the upkeep of this stunning property. Many of our guests complimented us on our selection of wedding venue and on how courteous the owners were. From the first meeting through the cleanup process, Lisa and Todd were phenomenal to work with. They worked tirelessly on the day of the wedding to help set up, coordinate vendors, direct traffic, assist guests, and clean up. We appreciated the exceptional guidance and assistance they offered during the preparation for the big day. Lisa followed up with all of our questions and requests in a timely manner. They went above and beyond to make our wedding a day to remember.

Historic Shady Lane provided excellent communication throughout our wedding planning process. Their coordinator Caitlyn was very good about keeping us informed and addressing any of our questions or concerns. The venue itself was beautifully stunning, with a gorgeous greenhouse and very spacious reception tent. When it rained on our wedding day, they were quick to accommodate and rearrange the setup so our guests could stay nice and dry inside the greenhouse. They also offered golf cart transportation, which our guests really appreciated. While their preferred vendor list had some great options, we ended up finding an amazing makeup artist that wasn't on their list. Overall, Historic Shady Lane contributed greatly to making our special day unforgettable.

The team at Well Wishes Farm was straightforward and easy to work with from start to finish. Their rustic, beautiful venue was the perfect backdrop for our special day. The owners, Mr. and Mrs. Brady, were on-site in case of any issues, but everything went off without a hitch. With 5 children between us, we're quite used to hiccups, but Well Wishes Farm exceeded our expectations. We still can't believe how beautiful everything turned out, and we can't thank the Bradys enough for trusting us to run with our vision. It was perfect! Also hike up the hills for sunset pictures…they WILL be worth it!!
