    Make the Most of Your Wedding Open House Visit

    Attending a wedding venue open house is an exciting step in planning your big day! Here’s how to get the most out of your visit to Carmens Event Centre.

    Come prepared

    Before the event, make a list of important questions and criteria that will help you determine if this is the right venue for you. Think about details like maximum guest capacity, available amenities, parking and accommodations options (we have both onsite), and catering services. The clearer your vision, the easier it will be to determine if Carmens is the right fit. 

    Bring Your Support team

    Whether it’s your fiancé, a parent, or a close friend, having trusted people with you can be invaluable. They can offer fresh perspectives, help you brainstorm ideas, and ask questions you might not think of.

    Explore The Venue

    Take advantage of the opportunity to tour the fully renovated space. Whether you prefer a guided tour with a member of the Carmens wedding team or a leisurely self-guided walkthrough, keep an eye out for key features like our foyer, ballrooms, couples suites, and bars. Imagine how the venue can be personalized to reflect your style, and don’t forget to snap some photos for future reference.

    Check Out Our Packages, Amenities & Services

    Ask about what’s included in the wedding packages and what enhancements are available. In the mezzanine, visit our decor showroom to view all the decor available for your wedding. Our in-house wedding planner is there to guide you on how to transform our space to match your wedding vision.

    Sample the Food

    No open house is complete without delicious food samples! Sip some bubbly, savour the hors d’oeuvres and sweet treats, and take this chance to ask about catering services, menu customization, and how dietary restrictions are handled.

    Picture Your Day

    As you explore the venue, start envisioning how your wedding day will unfold. Where will the head table go? What floral or décor elements would complement the space? Picture your celebration from start to finish and ask our wedding team how we can effortlessly bring your vision to life.

    Connect with Vendors

    This is a great chance to meet some of Carmens’ trusted preferred partners. Since the vendors have been handpicked for the open house, you’ll save time vetting service providers. Get a feel for their professionalism and creativity, and start building your dream team for the big day.

    Secure Your Date

    After the event, take a moment to review your notes and photos, discuss your impressions with your support team, and reach out to the Carmens team with any additional questions. If the venue feels like “the one,” don’t wait too long—secure your preferred date before it’s booked! We’ll even have some special booking offers available for couples that attend our wedding open house.

    Visit The C Hotel

    Don’t forget to check out the C Hotel next door – we include honeymoon suites in most of our wedding packages and it’s the perfect place for out-of-town guests to stay after your big day.

    We can’t wait to meet you!
