We just had our wedding at St Norbert Arts Centre and it was the dreamiest venue. Connie and Shawn were unbelievable to deal with. They were so kind and responsive. The food was unreal, our guests kept telling us it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding. The service staff were so nice and the decor was gorgeous. The indoor outdoor vibe made for such a good guest experience. We ended up doing our first dance outside in the grass. We opted to do our ceremony in the garden area and it was so romantic and beautiful, shaded from most of the sun. Honestly can’t say enough good things about this space and our experience having our wedding here. I think this spot is a hidden gem in Winnipeg as lots of our guests said they had never been there before! If you want a delicious meal, a beautiful outdoor venue for photos, and lots of different space for your guests to hang out, this is the spot to get married! P.S. AC is installed as of summer 2025!

A year of planning and a year of questions to Connie went by so fast, then the big day came and everything went well. Connie was very helpful whenever I had questions about timings or general planning, answering all of my questions extremely quickly even in the middle of wedding season. Highly recommend spending the extra money on the additional drapery for the ceiling and back wall for the reception, it made a huge difference and I had a dreamy after party. Everyone loved the food and apps. The portions were so big I barely finished my main. Connie even had a server bring out a tray of apps to the ruins while the rest of our party was at the reception so I could enjoy solo time with my new husband and enjoy some food

Our wedding ceremony was in the ruins, and even thought we did our reception elsewhere, we always felt well taken care of by Connie and Robin. They checked in with what we needed and where incredibly helpful as a we where a couple planning a wedding remotely.

We just had our dream fall wedding here! Highly recommend. Gorgeous scenery with the ruins and many photo opportunities.

Regarding planning, Connie was beyond amazing and made everything easy and was always available when I had questions. My vision came to life with her help!

The food and service on the day of was above and beyond 🙂

So thankful we got to spend our special day here!!

What a little gem in the historic district of St. Norbert! It was the perfect venue for our breakfast club's year end soirée with 20 guests. So exquisite and the ambience tied in perfectly with our guest speaker who spoke on the history of St. Norbert - so intriguing. The service, food and beverages are top notch!
