Ballrooms & Conferences at Casino Rama Resort

Casino Rama Resort is for the wedding that was never going to be a quiet little dinner.

This is a place built to handle a crowd.

Nearly 40,000 square feet of event space gives couples room to bring together large families, elaborate traditions, performances, dinner and the kind of dance floor that needs considerably more than a corner of the room.

At the centre of it is the Silvernightingale Ballroom.

The 6,600-square-foot ballroom can seat up to 400 guests for a banquet, with a 21-foot ceiling giving the room the scale a celebration of that size deserves. It can also be divided into three sections, allowing the space to change for a smaller wedding rather than swallowing it.

The Anishnaabe Ballroom offers another option for up to 180 seated guests, while smaller rooms can accommodate more intimate parts of the celebration.

That means the wedding does not have to happen in one enormous room from beginning to end.

Cocktails can have their own space.

Dinner can make an entrance.

Then the lights change, the music starts and the ballroom gets to do what ballrooms were really built for.

The resort's culinary team handles the food, while audiovisual support can help with the moments that need more than a microphone and a hopeful relative trying to connect a laptop.

And because this is a resort, the night does not have to end with hundreds of people simultaneously looking for a ride home.

Guests can stay.

The wedding can become an overnight celebration.

And the morning after, there will almost certainly be two groups at breakfast.

The people who went to bed at a sensible hour.

And the people with much better stories.
