Carleton Golf & Yacht Club

There are wedding venues beside water, and then there are places where the river seems woven through the whole celebration.

Carleton Golf & Yacht Club sits along the Rideau River in Manotick, surrounded by fairways, mature greenery and a peaceful waterfront setting only a short drive from Ottawa.

Couples can exchange vows beside the river before moving toward cocktails on the private dock and patio.

The banquet room welcomes up to approximately 160 guests, with a fireplace, full bar and porch overlooking the water. During warmer months, the riverside patio offers another beautiful place to gather.

The best part may be those few minutes after the ceremony.

Guests begin celebrating.

The newlyweds stay near the river for photographs.

Everything that felt urgent an hour earlier suddenly feels very far away.

Then everyone comes together again.

Dinner begins.

Speeches become stories.

The light changes across the Rideau while the room slowly becomes louder.

For couples who want an Ottawa-area wedding where water, countryside and an elegant reception all belong to the same place, Carleton brings them together beautifully.
