Okanagan Landing & District Community Association

Paddlewheel Hall gives couples a Vernon wedding with something wonderfully Okanagan just outside the doors: a sandy beach, green parkland and Okanagan Lake.

Owned by the Okanagan Landing & District Community Association, the hall sits beside Paddlewheel Park and is specifically available for weddings and celebrations. The surrounding grounds include shade trees, grassy areas, a picnic pavilion and waterfront access, giving couples the chance to bring the lake into the wider wedding day.

The hall itself offers a flexible community setting where couples can create the atmosphere they want rather than inherit a fixed ballroom style. Romantic lighting, florals and personal décor can transform the room, while the nearby beach and park provide a completely different backdrop for photographs and quieter moments together.

There is also real history beneath the setting. Okanagan Landing was once a major shipbuilding and transportation centre, and the community association continues to preserve that local story around the park and hall.

For an intimate wedding, the lake and park can make a smaller gathering feel wonderfully special. For a larger celebration, the hall gives everyone somewhere comfortable to come together for dinner and dancing.

For couples who want a Vernon wedding that feels relaxed, local and close to the water, Paddlewheel Hall offers a lovely combination of community warmth and Okanagan scenery.
