Fort McMurray Golf Club: Rental Options

Ceremonies at this Fort McMurray luxury wedding venue happen outside when the weather permits. The stunning manicured lawns, surrounding woodlands and rustic wooden arbour create a perfect backdrop to say I do. 

The venue also offers a patio for outdoor receptions, ceremonies or cocktail hours. 

The primary reception location is the Bouchier room, accommodating 175 people. It is available with or without a dance floor. 

The rental of the Bouchier room includes the following:

• In-house tables and chairs
• Linen
• Cutlery, crockery, glassware
• Audio-visual support
• Full set up and tear-down 

Alternatively, smaller receptions can be organized in the Clubhouse restaurant.

The golf club charges an additional labour fee for weddings with the ceremony and reception organized in the same room, because of the extra time and labour needed to transform the room. During that time, guests can spend time outside on the patio, and enjoy finger food and drinks.
