Belcroft Estates wedding venue near Barrie
BELCROFT ESTATES - Gilford, Ontario
Just a few minutes south of Barrie you'll find the epic barn wedding venue Belcroft Estates. Formerly a thriving generational family-owned tree farm, The Belcroft has since been converted into one of the most scenic rustic wedding venues in all of Ontario. The historic barns are the main attraction for most brides however they also have an elegant Marquee Tent option on the other side of the grounds.
Pro Tip: Get ready right at the Belcroft. They have the Belcroft Spa on the premises with a beautiful bridal suite right above it overlooking the grounds. For the fellas, the "man cave" is right next to the bridal suite and comes complete with pool table, classic cars and memorabilia, big screen tv and pinball machine.
There's no reason to be running around the morning of your wedding - you and your bridal party have the run of the place and your own home-base to get yourselves ready. These rooms are also behind the big green wall which separates you from guests as they arrive so nobody gets any sneek peeks before you walk down the aisle!
