Applewood / The Shaver House

Applewood is made for the couple who believes a wedding can be tiny and still feel enormously important.

Set inside Broadacres Park in Toronto, the Victorian Shaver House dates to the nineteenth century and now welcomes intimate marriage ceremonies.

The historic home accommodates a very small guest list, creating the kind of ceremony where couples can actually look around the room and see every person who came to witness the promise.

That intimacy is the heart of the experience.

There is no giant aisle and no distant back row.

Everyone is close.

The house brings the warmth and character of an old Toronto home, while the surrounding gardens and front porch offer lovely photograph possibilities during the warmer months.

Small receptions and family gatherings can also be arranged within the property's rental limits.

Applewood is particularly beautiful for couples planning a civil ceremony, second marriage, elopement with family or simply a wedding where thirty meaningful guests feel more right than three hundred.

The scale may be small.

The moment is not.
