Sechelt Inn

A coastal wedding can be at its loveliest when nobody has to choose between celebrating late and staying close to the people they came to see. Sechelt Inn brings that easy weekend feeling to the Sunshine Coast, pairing guest accommodation with Fred's, the waterfront restaurant connected to the inn.

Couples can hold a ceremony nearby, gather for a reception or wedding dinner at Fred's, and have guest rooms only steps away when the evening winds down. The restaurant can host a full buyout or a smaller group, making it useful for everything from an intimate elopement dinner to a larger celebration, rehearsal evening or family gathering.

Food is designed around relaxed, family-style dining, with Italian-inspired starters, salads, pizza and pasta. It is the kind of meal that encourages people to pass plates, linger over another conversation and feel as though they are sharing something together rather than simply being served beside one another.

There is an understated romance to keeping the whole experience this simple. Ocean air outside, dinner glowing through the windows, family staying nearby and no late-night drive separating everyone as soon as the music stops. For couples who want their wedding to feel like a small coastal escape, Sechelt Inn lets the celebration unfold with the ease of a weekend away.
