For some couples, the most memorable weddings are small, stylish and right in the heart of the city. reStays Ottawa is a boutique hotel, steps from Parliament Hill, where an intimate celebration and a weekend stay can come together under one roof.
The SkyLounge on the 12th floor offers floor-to-ceiling windows with views of Parliament, an electric fireplace, a balcony and a commercial bar. It welcomes up to approximately 30 guests and is well suited to intimate cocktail gatherings.
The Private Lounge is a 1,200-square-foot dining room for about 10 to 75 guests. Couples can order from a caterer of their choice or use the kitchen, which includes a convection oven, fridge and industrial dishwasher.
The Courtyard, a 3,000-square-foot space between Sparks and Queen Streets, features greenery, ample seating, a vintage brick wall and stone craftsmanship. It can host up to around 200 guests.
There are also smaller spaces to round out a weekend, including a private theatre with 11 recliner seats, a games room and a boardroom, and the hotel can suggest local catering partners.
Friends and family can stay in the hotel's suites, from junior suites with balconies to two-storey heritage lofts with high ceilings and original windows framing Sparks Street.
Whether the plan is a cocktail evening or an elegant wedding, the hotel's groups specialist can help customize the experience.
For couples who want an intimate downtown wedding with Parliament views and everyone staying close, reStays Ottawa offers a polished, personal setting in the centre of the capital.
