Here’s our designer-approved list of Toronto’s top 10 luxury wedding venues for 2025, complete with firsthand experience and insider tips to help couples choose the perfect setting for their celebration.

Casa Loma

  • Location: 1 Austin Terrace, Toronto

  • Guest Capacity: 150–250 guests (indoor/outdoor)

  • Price Range: $15,000–$25,000+ (venue + catering packages)

  • Layout / Floor Plan: Garden ceremony area, multiple halls, and terrace




Time Constraints:
Casa Loma is an active tourist attraction during the day, so vendors are only granted access after the museum closes — usually around 4 p.m. for evening events.

  • Setup Window: approximately 2 – 3 hours (maximum) before guest arrival.

  • Teardown Deadline: typically by midnight or 1 a.m., with all decor removed that night.
    Because of these limits, teams must coordinate precisely with planners, production, and floral vendors.
