Robert H. Lee Alumni Centre Wedding Package
Details
The Robert H. Lee Alumni Centre is the perfect setting to host your modern classic wedding or private celebration. Our spectacular new venue boasts a contemporary design, signature décor elements, built in lounge features, West Coast exposed cedar, rich stone tiling, and is filled throughout with natural light. The centre is close to transit stops and accessible parking.
For wedding celebrations, we suggest using the Jack Poole Hall in conjunction with the Wong-Trainor Welcome Centre. The Welcome Centre is a perfect setting for cocktails, boasting modern classic lounge furniture and an expansive metal fireplace. Cocktail tables can be set for your guests’ enjoyment, and our front reception area seamlessly transforms into a full service bar. After cocktails, guests are invited to walk up our signature cedar stair case or take one of our two elevators to the second floor Jack Poole Hall. This gorgeous celebration space allows guests to enjoy a full seated dinner for up to 250 people, with a dance floor and stage that can accommodate a head table of 10 people. The Jack Poole Hall is surrounded by 20 ft. glass walls and a beautiful exposed cedar ceiling. Ceremonies can also be held in Jack Poole Hall. A cocktail hour in the Wong-Trainor Welcome Centre allows for our staff to flip the room from ceremony space into a full reception area. We also work closely with Cecil Green Park House, offering special pricing for guests who would like to host a ceremony at this classic venue, and then move to the Robert H. Lee Alumni Centre for a modern classic reception.
The rental includes the use of all tables and chairs, as well as the set up/tear down of your floor plan. Use of the in-house sound system, microphone, and podium are also included. Our professional industry catering partners can work with you to plan and execute all your food and beverage needs. Our staff will provide exceptional service to help make your event a success from start to finish.
