Fairmont Le Château Montebello

Few wedding mornings could begin quite like waking inside the world's great log château with the Ottawa River just beyond the windows.

Fairmont Le Château Montebello turns a wedding into a true destination celebration, surrounded by forest, water and nearly a century of history.

Couples can exchange vows beneath a riverside gazebo in the warmer months or embrace winter with the kind of snowy arrival that could only belong at Montebello.

Inside, there are spaces for celebrations of many sizes, with the property's current wedding offering accommodating up to approximately 300 guests.

Then there is the château itself.

The enormous log architecture, roaring central fireplace and warm historic interiors mean the wedding never loses its sense of place, even after everyone moves indoors.

Guests can stay right at the resort in rooms and suites overlooking the gardens or Ottawa River.

So when dinner becomes dancing and the final song eventually plays, nobody has to bring the celebration to an abrupt end.

The next morning, everyone is still together.

For couples who want their wedding to feel like a grand Québec escape shared with everyone they love, Château Montebello offers something genuinely unforgettable.
