Unforgettable Wedding at SLCC!

We held our wedding at the SLCC and were so impressed with the venue, catering, and the staff. We were so happy with how it all turned out and were grateful to have been able to use such a meaningful space. We would absolutely recommend the SLCC as a venue and their in-house catering service!

Unforgettable Wedding Venue: SLCC

Our wedding reception was at the SLCC back in 2017 and it is still a standout memory. The venue was elegant and fit our ideal with strong natural elements (Istken hall). The food included unique local/traditional elements and was outstanding. The staff were great to work with throughout the process. Overall: would recommend for wedding receptions or similar events.

Cultural Gem: Perfect Wedding Venue

As a local to Whistler I’ve visited the Squamish Lil'wat Cultural Centre a few times - both pre-covid and during covid. The space itself is stunning - a beautiful place to learn about, and honour the culture, history and language of the Lil’wat and Squamish nations. Definitely check out the short film and guided tour - it’s the best way to learn more during your visit. There is a really lovely interpretive trail directly behind the building you should check out too!
