| - Were going to get married! At first I absolutely dreaded the old Mill...why you ask? Well because I was on my way, in tuxedo (minus socks, Don Johnson was always a fan of mine), and I was minutes away from loosing my freedom as a single man!
As the sweat beaded down my neck through my collar and "clip on bow-tie", I had arrived! Arrived to face my destiny, and to one of the most beautiful places I had ever been to in Toronto. My senses made me believe that this was meant to be. The beautiful English Tudor building seemed like it spanned a mile long. Beautiful flowers, and well manicured perennials surrounded the entire facility. As I walked inside, it was a transformation of new to old. Old might describe many things in a negative fashion, but this was elegance in the old world that many people were lucky to have been on that particular day. The quaint little chapel was glowing with sunlight that had creep through the stained glass windows. At glimpse, all 75 seats were filled with anticipated guests.
Then we got married...yada yada yada
The Hall was a split room, but due to the size of our guest-list we took up both rooms. There was a terrace to the back that was filled with flowers, and had a beautiful view of the Hotel portion of the Inn. The room itself contained the old world feel we had become a custom to. Every guest complimented the venue, its service, and of course the happy couple!
We had dinner, there were speeches....
The night was completed.....until we checked into our room. Masterfully planned to accentuate the the hotels glorious views of the Humber river, and gardens. The decor was up to date as far as standards are concerned, and the Champagne with Strawberries completed the touch of a fine hotel.
The staff was always attentive to our needs, and provided exceptional knowledge of how to treat a guest.
It was perfect.
Here's the kicker - we went to book a room for our 1 year anniversary and they didn't want to give us a deal! Whats up with that?! We just spend our soon to have kids education fund on 1 day, and you cant throw us a bone? Not impressed! After-service is an essential component of a successful and long standing business.
This Inn is a must for people looking for an extraordinary location to be married. As far as coming back...im going to Vegas on my next anniversary!
