Get ready to be inspired as we take you on a journey through the finest wedding locations and services Kelowna has to offer.
A Vista Villa
This couple’s retreat is the perfect setting for an intimate wedding of 20 or fewer guests. It’s even been known to host a private elopement if that’s what you’re looking for. It gives the vibes of Hawaii–without ever having to go to Hawaii–with its spacious gardens and poolside deck. Options for the ceremony include a cozy cabana setup or at dusk by the pool with the mountain horizon glowing in the distance.
Coast Capri Hotel
The Coast Capri Hotel offers couples the perfect wedding reception, whether it be a decked-out ballroom or epic views of south Okanagan. Spacious enough for a larger wedding and ideal for those who want to spend the night post-wedding, it also has an on-site catering team that will help you plan your big day.
Hotel Eldorado
Ever dreamed of a lakeside wedding? The Hotel Eldorado at Eldorado Resort offers picturesque views of Okanagan Lake and the surrounding mountains. Gather with your friends and family at the boutique hotel which dates back to 1926 and has 53 guestrooms and suites. Say "I do" at their indoor Great Room or their outdoor Eldorado Rooftop. Catering can be arranged through their restaurants, which focus on fresh, local, and high-quality ingredients.

Always dreamed of having an upscale wedding at an exclusive club? Gallagher’s Canyon Golf Club hosts up to 150 guests making it a popular choice for many couples. The lush green grounds and scenic backdrop make it ideal for photo shoots. Many love the idea that they can custom-create their menu with an on-site executive chef from top-notch local ingredients.
Okanagan Golf Club
With its newly renovated clubhouse, banquet room and restaurant for the spring of 2024, the Okanagan Golf Club can cater to three different wedding guest sizes, up to 40, 125 and 250 people. Your wedding meal is tailor-made by their Executive Chef and paired with Okanagan-produced wines. If you have guests coming in from out of town, the club is located conveniently close to Kelowna airport. You can also take advantage of the beautiful fairways surrounded by Ponderosa Pines and have your photos taken on-site.
Kelowna Innovation Centre
While the idea of a wedding may not be your first thought when you look at the Kelowna Innovation Centre, the fashionable rooftop patio has become a unique space to host a medium-sized wedding of up to 150 people. Rentable by the hour, this location presents an all-encompassing view of the city including Okanagan Lake. It’s worth noting that the vibe for a wedding here is low-key; think picnic on the rooftop with spectacular views.
Laurel Packinghouse Rentals
This century-old Packinghouse, created from bricks locally sourced from the nearby Knox Mountain clay, now stands proud as a Heritage building. A perfect locale for your next wedding if character and a wine and orchard museum tour are at the top of your list. Catering to wedding sizes of up to 250 people, you may also choose to include the back deck, museum gallery, and Laurel Square for more space.
