Capacity | 30 plated meal with set menu
View | Creekside
Perfect for an intimate wedding ceremony and reception. With the Glass Box you have the option to have your ceremony outdoors, or indoors, and you have exclusive use of the Creekside outdoor space (so beautiful for cocktail hour candids and sunset portraits).
The Pavillion Wedding Ceremony & Reception

Dining Room Wedding Reception
A-frame space cantilevered over the creek

View | Lake front
Perfect for small weddings. Bright, beautiful space with stunning panoramic views of the lake. Arguably the iconic space of The Drake Devonshire (well, other than the Owner’s Suite).

Capacity | 60 for seated ceremony on the bleachers
Perfect for a lakefront ceremony with bar on-site. Your guests will watch from the bleachers as you marry your person, with the waves crashing in the background.
Why The Drake Devonshire is a unique venue for your wedding:
- Not your average wedding meal. The Drake prides itself on delivering the best that The County has to offer in terms of seasonal ingredients and Drake favourites.
- You can dress it up or dress it down – however you prefer. Go all out and bring in a wedding planner, florist, tablescapes to make your vision come to life OR keep it simple and embrace the bold architecture and vibrant colors of the Drake itself.
- Get ready, and stay on-site. This is such a dream for weddings of all sizes. You can have the all-inclusive practicality of a typical hotel wedding, with none of the typical hotel wedding feels.
