Ritz-Carlton wedding Toronto
The Ritz-Carlton Toronto is one of the city’s most sought-after luxury wedding venues — refined, architectural, and impeccably serviced. From intimate ceremonies to grand ballroom receptions and modern sangeet nights, this venue offers a seamless canvas for elevated wedding design.
At Ethereal Creators, we’ve had the privilege of designing multiple celebrations at The Ritz-Carlton Toronto — including weddings, ceremonies, and sangeet events — each tailored to a completely different vision.
Why Couples Choose The Ritz-Carlton Toronto for Their Wedding
The Ritz-Carlton stands apart for couples seeking a polished, luxury experience without compromise.
What makes it exceptional:
Multiple rooms for multi-day and multi-event weddings
A refined ballroom ideal for large-scale floral and lounge installations
Exceptional lighting that enhances décor without overproduction
Impeccable service, security, and event coordination
A luxury hotel experience for both hosts and guests
From our experience, the staff is collaborative, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in flawless execution.
The Ritz-Carlton Ballroom
Best for Receptions & Sangeets
Capacity
Seated reception: ~180–250 guests
Cocktail / sangeet-style events: Up to ~300 guests
What the Space Offers
High ceilings with clean architectural lines
Neutral finishes that work with both bold and soft palettes
Strong built-in lighting (a major plus for evening events)
Our Experience Designing This Room
We’ve transformed the Ritz-Carlton Ballroom for:
A blue, modern sangeet layered with custom draping, candlelight, and plush lounge seating
A blush and white wedding reception featuring long rectangular tables and a dedicated lounge area
The ballroom’s scale allows for statement installations without feeling crowded, and the neutral base lets each event feel completely different — even when hosted back-to-back.
The Wellington Room
Best for Indoor Wedding Ceremonies
Capacity
Ceremony seating: ~120–180 guests
What the Space Offers
Intimate proportions compared to the main ballroom
Ideal for floral-forward or pastel ceremony designs
Works beautifully for couples wanting an indoor ceremony that still feels soft and romantic
Our Experience Designing This Room
We designed a burnt-orange pastel ceremony in the Wellington Room, using layered florals and tonal textures to warm the space without overwhelming it.
This room is especially strong for couples who want:
A distinct ceremony look separate from the reception
A more emotional, immersive setting
Design that photographs beautifully from every angle
Junior Ballrooms & Salon Spaces
Best for Mehndi, Welcome Events & Intimate Celebrations
Capacity
Approximately 40–100 guests (depending on layout)
What the Spaces Offer
Flexible layouts for lounge-style events
Ideal for cultural or ritual-focused celebrations
A more relaxed flow compared to formal ballrooms
Our Experience Designing These Spaces
These rooms are perfect for:
Mehndi events
Welcome receptions
Smaller pre-wedding gatherings
We often lean into furniture, lighting, and layered florals here rather than heavy staging allowing the space to feel intentional without over-designing.
Design & Logistics: What Couples Should Know
While The Ritz-Carlton Toronto is a luxury venue, there are important planning details couples should be aware of:
Load-in & load-out require extra time due to multiple hallways
Elevator access requires staff or vendor ID clearance
The venue is flexible with early room access when required
Candles are allowed, which opens up strong design possibilities
From a design perspective, planning logistics early allows the creative vision to stay intact without last-minute compromises.
Guest Count & Floor Planning
We’ve designed weddings at the Ritz-Carlton Toronto for approximately 200 guests, with room to scale depending on:
Table style (round vs rectangular)
Dance floor placement
Lounge vs seating balance
Thoughtful floor planning is key to making larger guest counts feel intentional rather than crowded.
Wedding Packages at The Ritz-Carlton Toronto
The Ritz-Carlton Toronto does not offer fixed wedding décor packages.
Instead:
Weddings are custom-quoted based on guest count, rooms used, and catering
Décor and floral design are handled separately by your design team
This allows for fully customized events, not templated weddings
From our experience, design budgets typically range from $30K–$120K+, depending on:
Number of events
Floral density
Furniture and lounge requirements
Custom installations or staging
Why This Venue Works for Multi-Day Weddings
One of the strongest advantages of the Ritz-Carlton Toronto is its ability to host:
Ceremony
Sangeet
Wedding reception
all within the same venue, while still allowing each event to feel distinct and elevated.
With the right design approach, each room becomes its own world — cohesive, but never repetitive.
Final Thoughts
A Ritz-Carlton Toronto wedding is best suited for couples who value:
Design flexibility
Strong service and coordination
A polished, luxury guest experience
