Evergreen Brick Works Event Venue
One of Toronto’s most sought after venues and one that we’ve gotten to know well through the course The Pop-Up Chapel’s growth is Evergreen Brick Works! This wedding and event space boasts a breathtaking view of the city's lush landscape and brings in tons of natural light. And if you’re looking for a venue that checks the mark for being eco-friendly and versatile, look no further! Evergreen is committed to green design and urban sustainability which we absolutely love!

The Globe and Mail Centre
Bright-lighted and airy, this venue is perfect for someone looking for a modern and open space. Featuring an unobstructed view of the waterfront and city skyline, this venue makes it easy to capture snaps with the most breathtaking backdrop! Since hosting our first Pop-Up Chapel at this venue in February of 2020, we have fallen in love with the beauty and ease of accessibility this venue offers.

Steam Whistle Brewery
Leaning towards a more industrial-chic vibe for your day? We’ve got you! With many venues brimming with stunning exposed bricks and high ceilings in the city of Toronto, this location is amongst our top faves! Not only does Steam Whistle win in the beer department with their classic #Pilsners but their versatile space makes it easier than ever to host an event theme of your choice. From the beautiful factory style windows to their outdoor patios with incredible views of the iconic CN Tower, it’s got a unique flair that makes it totally worth it and perfect for a mid-summer’s day celebration!

Baro Toronto
This is for the minimalist lover (or really anyone who loves a bit of NYC flair)! Early in September of 2020, we hosted our first ever Chapel at The Loft at Baro and it was GORG! Think polished concrete flooring and a touch of wooden accents to offer a modern-rustic vibe, that’s Baro Toronto! The venue also features a gorgeous rooftop patio that’s super trendy and decked out with lush greenery. Known to be the ideal Latin infused private dining experience, Baro Toronto has won the hearts of many with it’s super romantic ambiance!

This stunning waterfront venue in Ottawa will blow your socks OFF! Expect contemporary art design, a beautiful view of #dowslakeottawa and plenty of indoor and outdoor space.
