Bellamere Winery Venue Review
Bellamere Winery in London, Ontario is a stunning, romantic venue that is perfect for any couple looking for a uniquely beautiful venue to celebrate their special day. As a professional wedding photographer who has thoroughly enjoyed capturing weddings at Bellamere Winery for over 7 years, I am confident that it is a great choice for couples looking to get married in London, Ontario.
There are two main ceremony locations at Bellamere Winery - the Kindred Hall and the Winery. Both the Kindred Hall and the Winery are versatile and customizable to suit the needs of any wedding, whether it be a formal event or a more casual gathering. There is no going wrong with your ceremony location at Bellamere - Kindred Hall, the Winery, as well as the outdoor gazebo are great options. Indoor and outdoor ceremony options are offered at Bellamere to keep things running smoothly regardless of the weather.
The Kindred Hall is the perfect setting for a larger reception, with high ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and grand chandeliers. Both the Kindred hall and the winery have a magical stone fireplace that doubles as a perfect backdrop for ceremonies This Hall can comfortably accommodate up to 300 guests for a sit-down dinner while boasting plenty of space for dancing and mingling. The atmosphere can be described as elegant and comfortable.
The Winery offers some of the same aesthetic components as the Kindred Hall, such as exposed wooden beams and beautiful chandeliers, but is perfect for a more intimate wedding. It can comfortably host up to 150 guests for a sit-down dinner. Some aspects I believe give this space an upper hand include its cobblestone floor and large exposed stone archways.
Bellamere is also a great option for those who are looking to have a ceremony in an easily accessible location. Located nearby both reception locations and the parking lot, Bellamere’s outdoor gazebo easily accommodates all mobility needs.
In discussing some of the fine details that Bellamere Winery attends to, two aspects are outstanding- the staff and the food. The staff at Bellamere Winery are incredibly friendly and helpful, making the planning process and the big day run smoothly. From the initial consultation to the final cleanup, the Bellamere team is dedicated to ensuring that each step of your wedding journey exceeds your hopes and expectations. Additionally, the culinary team at Bellamere Winery consistently develops and realizes spectacular menus, tailored to varying tastes and dietary requests. The food is outstanding, to say the least.
Another noteworthy component of Bellamere Winery as a wedding venue is the bridal suite. This beautifully decorated suite operates as a preparation and relaxation location for bridesmaids or groomsmen before the ceremony. It is a spacious room with a comfortable seating area, a full-length mirror, and lots of natural light.
From a photography perspective, Bellamere winery offers several picture-perfect locations. The beautiful bridge found at the front of the winery makes for stunning photos, as well as the orchard located only a short walk away. This is perfect during the spring and summer but really comes to life in the autumn months as the leaves change colours. The photo opportunities at Bellamere are truly endless as the rustic wood fences, open green spaces, and lined evergreen trees all help amplify the natural beauty of the venue.
With regards to wedding packages, Bellamere Winery offers a variety of packages to accommodate the varying needs and budgets of each couple. They also offer onsite wedding planning and coordination, which removes the stress from planning your special day and allows you to enjoy the experience in its entirety.
Overall, Bellamere Winery is an exceptional event space for those seeking a timeless and tasteful wedding venue in London, Ontario. It boasts an elegant and rustic setting, delicious food and wine, as well as kind, helpful staff.
