“We take care of everything.” That’s the slogan for the Niverville Heritage Event Centre, and something they strive to live up to. From the venue to décor to catering, the Heritage Centre does it all. If you’re looking for a stress-free wedding experience, this is the place to do it.
The centre employs two event planners, both capable and ready to help you create the wedding of your dreams. They also have hostesses to ensure your event runs smoothly, bartenders, professional serving staff, and experienced cooks.
With 20,000 square feet of flexible space, there are a variety of great locations here for a stunning ceremony.
“We have rustic country to modern elegance,” says Jessica Cole, Heritage Centre event planner.
The ballroom is spacious and attractively decorated, with carpet throughout for comfort as well as a hardwood dance floor. Elegant chandeliers and subtle side lights can be fully controlled for just the right lighting.
Next to the ballroom, the atrium is one of the most popular spots for bridal couples to tie the knot. A high ceiling and heavy timber-frame structure makes the perfect backdrop for a simple yet elegant event. A wide wooden staircase leads down from the mezzanine, making for a captivating bridal party entrance—not to mention a perfect photo opportunity.
The Heritage Centre provides flexibility to every wedding, allowing couples the use of either or both of these venues for their ceremony and reception. They provide a wide range of décor possibilities, mixing and matching to create the perfect look for any bride’s taste. Linens are available in almost every imaginable colour. The staff takes care of all the setup and takedown, allowing couples to be free to enjoy their special day.
No matter the location of the ceremony or reception, the entire facility is equipped with the latest sound and video technology, including wireless microphone systems.
Catering options include full-course meals served to your table or dinner buffets, light buffets, and late-night snacks. Here, too, there’s something to suit every pallet, including steak, prime rib, cannelloni, and glazed turkey entrees.
Full bar service is provided. With their own liquor license, they can take care of all the wines and alcoholic beverages so you don’t have to.
Wedding parties can take advantage of Hespeler’s Cookhouse and Tavern, located next to the atrium, on rehearsal night. Event planners can make reservations for your group at the fully licensed restaurant to enjoy a little pre-wedding celebration.
With virtually every angle covered, “all you have to do is bring the wedding cake,” says Dawn Schmidt, another Heritage Centre event planner.
The Niverville Heritage Event Centre is located in the heart of southeast Manitoba, 20 minutes south of Winnipeg. All of the proceeds from the centre’s events stay within the Heritage Centre community.
