In June I was lucky enough to be invited to a friend’s wedding at one of our favorite venues, Brix & Mortar in Yaletown. Until I was able to be a guest, it was a wedding venue I always love due to how great the staff always are to us, and how pretty it is.
Now that I have been a guest, I cannot rave enough about this award-winning wedding venue. It is suitable for up to 95 people to sit down and 120 cocktail reception. The venue itself needs extraordinarily little decoration, even though that is my business, I will share the secret that candles are the only necessity. It is such a great space for the ceremony in the atrium and reception in the restaurant & atrium. The atrium in summer is cool and in winter it is warm and rain-free. It is the perfect setup. Yes, I am raving but it’s well deserved.
The food! I cannot say enough about the food. The appetizers were delicious and the standout for me was the “fish & chip”! When we sat down to dinner, we received top service. Our meals were piping hot and delicious. They have enough staff to ensure your wedding is well served.
After dinner, desserts and coffee were served in the atrium. Dancing was in the bar area. By the way, the bar is a golden glowing “want to hang out at” area. You just want to order something. I was the DD, so it was ginger ale but it was still amazing to stand at. I will not talk about my Husband lol! He had a hand signal with the barman. As the dancing continued the staff danced too as they went back and forth.
In short, it was professional, relaxed yet managed and business to business I think they have figured it out. 750 plus weddings later - they know how to help you have a wonderful wedding day celebration.
