Richmond Hill Country Club

A wedding at Richmond Hill Country Club unfolds on a private estate where gardens and woods frame the view from nearly every room.

The club sits on Bathurst Street in Richmond Hill, beside an 18 hole championship golf course. Couples can choose indoor and outdoor settings for anywhere from 50 to 250 guests.

The Regency room works for ceremonies, cocktail receptions and dinners, with big windows bringing in daylight over the patio and tennis courts. It is often paired with the Georgian room, which has floor to ceiling windows, crystal chandeliers, a large dance floor and a broad balcony with lovely views.

The Richmond room adds high ceilings, wood floors and its own balcony, while the Library and the Wellington suit rehearsal dinners or a quiet meal for a small group.

An on-site planner and the club's staff look after the day from ceremony to dancing. The chef builds custom international menus, and French service can be added for a more formal dinner. Menus are also offered for brunches and family celebrations.

Beyond the banquet rooms, the club has 15 tennis courts, a spa, a fitness centre and an outdoor pool, so guests have plenty to enjoy.

For couples who picture vows against a backdrop of flowers and trees and a chandelier lit reception to follow, Richmond Hill Country Club offers an elegant estate wedding close to home.
