Where PASSION Meets PURPOSE

We are passionate about fostering strong marriages.

We accomplish this by encouraging you to focus on your love-relationship. Allow us to make your wedding planning process remarkably simple, including the set-up, clean-up, and take-down on the day of your event.

Our purpose is to provide you with outstanding services that allow you to relax on your big day. We want you to focus on enjoying all the love and support that surrounds you on this special occasion.

What Makes us Unique?

 

We Keep it NATURAL

 

We love nature. The smell of flowers, strolling down woodland paths, walking barefoot in the green grass, dipping our toes into the cool water, watching the sunset, feeling completely mesmerized by the Northern Lights and falling stars. These are the things that bring us joy and peace. There is no more beautiful place to say “I do” than outdoors, surrounded by a large pond, a waterfall, a fountain, a rustic log cabin and a row boat. If you love nature like we do, then Pine and Pond is the NATURAL choice.

 

We Keep it SIMPLE

 

We prefer uncomplicated things. Simple things bring the greatest joy, and allow us to focus on what’s most important to us. That’s why at Pine and Pond, we handle the set-up, tear-down and clean up of your wedding day, and even provide beautiful decor selections for you to choose from—so you can stay focused on what matters most to you. If you prefer to relax on your wedding day and allow your venue to bring your wedding day to life, then Pine and Pond is the SIMPLE choice!

 

We Focus on YOUR MARRIAGE

 

We believe marriage is of utmost importance. Yes, we want to create an amazing atmosphere on your wedding day, but we are not just interested in renting you a space. We want to encourage you to highly honour each other before, during, and after the wedding. If you believe that your marriage is just as important as your wedding day, then Pine and Pond is the RELATIONSHIP FOCUSED choice!
