Uniquely Hawthorn
One beautiful setting. Endless possibilities. A wedding that feels entirely your own.
Located approximately 30 minutes north of Winnipeg, Hawthorn Estates is a private country venue combining beautifully landscaped grounds, distinctive character and modern comforts.
What makes Hawthorn unique is its versatility. From a romantic garden wedding or elegant dinner party to a relaxed, intimate celebration, our spaces can be transformed to reflect your style and your wedding.
Your venue rental includes:
Our professionally landscaped grounds provide a beautiful, private setting for ceremonies, photographs, lawn games and outdoor gatherings.
Our signature Marriage Hill includes ceremony benches and an antique signing table and chair.
If the weather doesn't cooperate, our attached Solarium, with remote-controlled clear drop-down sides, provides a beautiful covered alternative for your ceremony, cocktail hour and mingling.
An outdoor microphone, speakers and sound system are also available.
Hawthorn offers a variety of spaces for guests to enjoy throughout the day — from Marriage Hill and the Solarium to our reception area, lounges, mezzanine, balcony, landscaped grounds and fire pit.
Your celebration can naturally move from ceremony to cocktails, dinner and an evening around the fire.
Hawthorn has character before you add a single decoration. Wood details, chandeliers, our stone fireplace, antiques, ambient lighting and surrounding greenery create a warm backdrop that can be dressed up, kept beautifully simple or transformed into something completely different.
We also offer a collection of décor and rental pieces to help personalize your celebration.
Your wedding doesn't have to look like every other wedding held here. We want it to look like yours.
At Hawthorn, you have the flexibility to purchase and provide your own alcohol, giving you greater control over your selections and budget.
Couples are responsible for purchasing their alcohol and obtaining the required liquor permit.

Complete policies and planning information are provided when booking.
There is something about Hawthorn that photographs can't completely capture — the privacy, character and way our spaces come together to create a celebration that feels entirely your own.
We would love to show you around.
