The Ancaster Old Mill is one of Hamilton’s best wedding locations for a few very good reasons. First let me say that this is one of the very few locations that has a beautiful outdoor ceremony location onsite. I think having a venue that can host both the reception & ceremony is one of the aspects that many brides and grooms are looking for when looking for wedding venues. That way the guests aren’t travelling to multiple places and potentially guests from out of town getting lost along the way.
The Old Mill has a beautiful waterfall just outside the restaurant for bridal portraits and family photos.
The main floor reception is cosy, warm and set up beautifully. They also have 4 other rooms that can accommodate guest lists as small as 35 but all the way up to 205 people.
The outside gardens are groomed perfectly and the greenery is a wonderful backdrop for family portraits and wedding photos
There are a few onsite bridal suites that are clean and modern. I’d highly recommend booking one, they make for stunning photographs while you are getting ready. There is a larger bridal suite for bigger wedding parties and a smaller one if it fits your style.
As previously mentioned, the outdoor ceremony location is one of the best parts of the Ancaster Old Mill. Outdoor weddings surrounded by lush greenery looks amazing in photos.
The water at the mill travels from the waterfall, past the restaurant and right beside the ceremony site.
They even have an indoor and outdoor covered bridge for some stunning bridal portraits
If the photos weren’t enough to sell you on the Old Mill, take my word for the fact that there are very few venues that will say that have phenomenal food & service. The Ancaster Mill is one of only a handful of places that I would highly recommend if the quality of the food being served is important to you. Their menus offer impeccable seasonal local ingredients from nearby farms and food artisans.
