Boehmer
No one would argue that food and alcohol are absolute must-haves for any happy wedding. Sure, you need the dress and mustn’t forget the flowers—but your guests gotta eat! Boehmer Restaurant is an excellent choice when it comes to first-rate culinary fashion. With Iron Chef Paul Boehmer on the roster couples with a urban-rustic room flooded with natural light, your guests will be more than pleased, and your pictures will be beyond perfect.
Archoe
Rusticity right here in the city—who knew? Archeo is a striking setting in the photo-friendly Distillery District. Highlighting a sense of history alongside brick and refurbished wood stylings too stunning not to take pictures of. The outdoor ceremony options add to the versatility of this legendary location. It’s also the perfect site for an all-in-one photo session. Archeo is definitely one of my top Toronto Restaurants for the downtown wedding!

A whole new meaning to the phrase on cloud nine! Canoe delivers a free-floating, high-flying feel that turns every wedding into a first class affair.
