Where To Stay
The brand new Holiday Inn Express in Strathroy officially opens on June 3 but is currently accepting bookings (as it's the only hotel in a very busy wedding venue town).
We highly recommend reserving a room asap here:
ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/us/en/strathroy/xtycr/hoteldetail
The hotel includes free breakfast, a pool, and parking. The hotel is about 15 minutes from our wedding venue, Sydenham Ridge Estates.
Outside of this hotel, the next closest hotel option is The Best Western Stoneridge (35 minutes away from the wedding venue):

There are not many Airbnbs in the area, so outside of the above 2 hotels, the next closest accommodations would be in London, Ontario.
If you do choose to stay at the new Holiday Inn Express in Strathroy, or have alternate accommodations arranged, please let us know, so we can ensure you're being well taken care of!
Getting To The Venue
Since our venue is an estate in the small town of Strathroy, we recommend driving or taking a taxi from your accommodations. The venue has plenty of parking.
Flying in?
Our venue is located about 200km west of Toronto. We recommend flying in to Toronto Pearson Airport (YYZ) or London International Airpot (YXU)
Q & A
For all our friends and family who have lots of questions, please check out our Q & A first!
When is the RSVP deadline?
Please RSVP by February 28 as we have limited capacity in the venue.
What will the weather be like?
Summer in Southern Ontario is often hot. Our reception venue is climate controlled but please be prepared for a beautiful hot summer day and night.
What should I wear?
Summer neutrals are encouraged.
What kind of shoes should/shouldn't I wear?
As beautiful as they are, we recommend not wearing stiletto heels, as the venue is predominantly on grass and rocky areas. Please be comfortable and bring your dancing shoes!
Where should I park?
The venue has plenty of parking on site. There will be signs instructing you where to park on the day of the wedding.
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
Our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour is outdoors, but our reception is in a climate controlled barn.
Is it okay to take pictures with our phones and cameras during the wedding?
As we have professional photography and videography for our wedding, please refrain from taking photos during the ceremony. All images and videos will be shared with you! You are welcome to take images during the cocktail hour and reception. Please share them with us! We would love to see them!
Whom should I call with questions?
Please feel free to contact Mel (416-727-3554) or Dave (647-688-2078) with any other questions you might have. We're so excited to see you!
