About Strathmere
Strathmere is a 200-acre historic estate just outside of Ottawa, renowned for hosting bespoke weddings for over 35 years. The estate features three unique wedding venues: a 150-year-old stone farmhouse, a 200-year-old restored barn and a Garden House each featuring its own private properties and outdoor ceremony sites.
In addition, Strathmere has 30 overnight rooms onsite as well as a brand-new Wellness Retreat and Spa for all guests to enjoy. Book a tour to explore the grounds and stop by the Cafe at the Retreat to indulge in Strathmere’s famous farm-to-table culinary experience.
The Farmhouse: For the most intimate of weddings. Built for a beloved in the early 1860s, this fieldstone farmhouse boasts romantic detail. Enter down a sweeping circular staircase for your first look or enjoy a quiet moment together nestled in the upstairs alcove. With your closest friends and family, say “I do” canopied under majestic 160-year-old walnut trees. As the sun sets, sneak out past the veranda into the Heritage Garden surrounded by roses and wildflowers alike.
Capacity is 25 to 65 guests for dining and up to 90 guests for the reception.
The Lodge: For the grandest of celebrations. As you twirl across smooth wood grain floors, don’t forget to look up! Your evening will be framed by 160-year-old beams stretching across cathedral ceilings and adorned by a series of six iron and crystal orb chandeliers. Memorable toasts in your honour will be made against a striking backdrop: a soaring limestone fireplace stretching 24 feet high. Yours is a breathtaking ceremony outside overlooking rolling fields. And at dusk, vintage lights will glow for your first dance Al Fresco.
Capacity is from 50 to 200 guests for dinner and up to 250 guests for the reception.
The Garden House: The most enchanting venue is nestled between a grassy hillock and the Woods, The Garden House is hidden on its own 10-acre piece of the property. As you enter, sunbeams stream through wrap-around windows and dance off white gold chandeliers. A handcrafted limestone fireplace with adjacent french doors leads the path to a tranquil ceremony site overlooking the Woods and Orchard. After champagne toasts, let the evening breeze carry you across the outdoor dance floor under a starry and celestial sky.
Capacity starts from 50 to 175 guests for dinner, and up to 200 for the reception.

Strathmere has a natural lush green background and expansive sky if you choose the outdoor space.
The indoor space style depends on the venue. The Farmhouse has a vintage feel with classic details, carving-out alcoves, original crown moulding, oversized windows and more. The Lodge has a warm and rustic feel, with soaring ceilings, a 24ft stone fireplace, original beamed ceilings and giant orb chandeliers.
The Garden House is more modern, with wrap-around windows, a cozy fire place, and french doors leading to an outdoor ceremony site or dance floor, giving this venue an indoor/outdoor feel, complete with crystal chandeliers.
With produce grown here on the 200-acre property, Strathmere offers exquisite seasonal menus year-round that leave guests with full hearts and bellies. The field-to-plate menus are renowned - they use as much as possible from their own fields, including homegrown fruits, vegetables, and edible flowers. The Executive Chef, in partnership with their Lead Grower, creates dishes that are equal parts delicious and beautiful.
Working with a local butcher for all the meat, a fishmonger for fish and seafood, a fromagerie for cheeses, and a local egg farmer, it's truly a culinary experience that will ignite all of your senses.
Strathmere has on-site accommodation that can hold you and your wedding guests. There are 34 different guest rooms on site. The rooms are uniquely set. There are also individual guest rooms and private spaces for families willing to spend private time together.
The venue also has a Wellness Retreat and Space on site that offers bridal services, and other services for all of your guests to take advantage of including yoga, hiking, outdoor hot tubs, massages, pedicures and our Retreat Cafe.
