Weddings

Many feel the ambiance of the historic Cove Inn is perfect for that special wedding celebration. The Inn was built in the late 1800’s and still captures a lot of it’s original charm yet provides all kinds of modern comfort.

We would be happy to provide you with any or all of the wedding services you require including your choice of reception, guest accommodations, meal style, ceremony location, rehearsal party, etc.

We have two ideal outdoor locations for your ceremony in our gardens overlooking the water of the Westport Pond or Upper Rideau Lake. Perfect settings for your special day!

Our dining/lounge area can accommodate approximately 100 guests and your menu can be as varied as you like to meet your specific needs!

To ensure you get your menu exactly right, why not come in for a tasting!

Venue

In the past our lounge has comfortably accommodated approximately 100 guests and up to 180 guests using both rooms we have available at The Cove Inn. We are situated right on the water with the Fredenburgh Property overlooking the Upper Rideau Lake and the Main Inn overlooking Westport Pond so our site is an ideal location for beautiful photos and a picturesque wedding ceremony. Our patio offers a cozy setting over a beautiful lower lawn overlooking the Westport Pond and Foley Mountain. In the event of inclement weather, we can hold the ceremony in the Lobby of the Main Inn. Our lounge, dining room and lobby are all well appointed with lots of natural light and our staff is warm and helpful.
