An Armouries Wedding Weekend

A bride who wants to feel like a princess on her wedding day is automatically drawn to the Armouries. We were told, "We have such a unique venue to offer.

She'll have her choice of a range of honeymoon suites for the wedding night - complete with fireplace, champagne, chocolate-covered strawberries (upon availability) and jet tub.

The bride's reception prices will include all of her linens, china, stemware, flatware, mirrors & tea lights to enhance her centrepieces in addition to the refuge of a bridal change room (or break-out room) to use as needed throughout the wedding day. "The service we offer is so personalized and flexible. Everything a couple could want is available here."

In other words...

"I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for everything you did for us! Our wedding was absolutely perfect, and went off without a hitch, and we couldn't have done it without you and all the staff at the Delta.

Everyone was so helpful and accommodating, it was truly a pleasure working with such a great team - from the reservation staff to the banquet staff - without all of you, our day wouldn't have been what it was. We couldn't have picked a better venue for our wedding.

Having the rehearsal dinner and day after brunch at the hotel was absolutely perfect for our out-of-town guests. It was so convenient, and it was nice to be able to work with you throughout the entire process instead of trying to coordinate many different venues.

If I had to do it over again, I wouldn't change a thing. We definitely couldn't have done it without you - I can't thank you enough for all of your help and your patience.” - Cynthia & Drew
