5 Barrie Wedding Venues Worth Considering
Barrie and the surrounding Simcoe County area offer a range of established wedding venues, from vineyard and golf-course settings to full-service resorts. These venues are among the recognizable wedding options in the Barrie area and offer dedicated spaces for ceremonies and receptions.
1. Barrie Country Club
Barrie Country Club — Official Wedding Website
Barrie Country Club is an established private golf club with a dedicated wedding program. Couples can hold their ceremony in the outdoor wedding garden or choose an indoor ceremony in the clubhouse, followed by a reception in the Trillium Room. The reception space accommodates up to 250 guests and features large windows overlooking the golf course.
Photo & video tip: The golf course views and outdoor garden give you plenty of options for portraits without leaving the venue. Consider scheduling couple portraits around golden hour for softer light over the course.
2. Ivy Ridge Weddings & Events
Ivy Ridge Weddings & Events — Official Wedding Website
Ivy Ridge Weddings & Events is a countryside wedding venue in Thornton, just south of Barrie, offering a private estate setting with a restored heritage barn, landscaped gardens and woodland surroundings. The venue is designed for full wedding days, with a ceremony in a romantic woodland setting, cocktail hour on the outdoor terrace and receptions in the heritage barn and loft. The main reception space accommodates up to 200 guests and features vaulted ceilings, hand-hewn beams, chandeliers and a wrap-around verandah overlooking the surrounding countryside.
Photo & video tip: Ivy Ridge offers a lot of variety without leaving the property. Plan portraits around the woodland ceremony area, gardens, stone pathways and heritage barn, then take advantage of the wrap-around verandah and surrounding fields for sunset photos. The combination of natural scenery and historic barn architecture also works particularly well for cinematic wedding films.
3. The Wilds at Cedar Valley Golf Course

The venue offers a dedicated wedding setting and works with couples to create a personalized celebration, with event coordination, food and service available for the wedding day.
Photo & video tip: The natural surroundings make this venue especially well suited to outdoor portraits. Consider planning some couple portraits around the wooded areas and surrounding landscape, while leaving enough time before the reception to capture the quieter moments between the ceremony and celebration.

Planning a Barrie Wedding? A Few Things to Keep in Mind
• Consider your wedding-day locations
Barrie and Simcoe County offer a mix of city venues, golf courses, resorts and countryside properties.
If your getting-ready location, ceremony and reception are in different places, allow enough time for travel when building your timeline.
• Take advantage of the natural surroundings
Many Barrie-area venues have gardens, golf courses, vineyards, forests or open countryside nearby.
Even a short outdoor portrait session can add variety to your wedding gallery and film.
• Plan portraits around natural light
If outdoor portraits are important to you, consider when the best natural light will be available.
Your photographer can help you find the right time for portraits so they feel relaxed rather than rushed.
• Leave room for genuine moments
The best photographs and films often happen between the scheduled events.
A little breathing room gives you time to enjoy your guests and allows your photographer and videographer to capture the moments you didn't plan for.
