Wedding weekends

A house for the wedding weekend

7 Casa Scotia homes sleep 10 to 20 — near Halifax, in Chester Basin and in Wolfville — with room for the wedding party and the family.

Where the wedding party stays

Our homes are places to stay, not the venue: the getting-ready morning, the family dinner the night before, the slow breakfast the day after. Most aren’t licensed event venues, so plan the ceremony and reception at your venue and use the house for everything around it.

Planning the rest of the weekend? Read our guide to planning a wedding weekend in Nova Scotia.

  1. Tell us the date, the venue and the headcount. How many people need a bed, and for which nights.
  2. A person suggests the homes that fit. We tell you honestly whether dates can be held, and for how long.
  3. Each home is booked on its own. The couple can take one house and the family another, each paying for their own stay.

Wedding weekend questions

Can we hold the ceremony or reception at the house?

Usually not: our homes are rentals to stay in, and most aren’t licensed event venues. House rules differ from home to home — some allow gatherings with conditions, some allow no parties or events — and each home’s rules are on its booking page. Tell us what you’re planning before you book and we’ll give you a straight answer for that home.

Can you hold dates while we decide?

Ask us. For wedding stays a person manages the calendar with you, and we’ll tell you honestly whether we can hold your dates and for how long.

Can our guests stay in more than one home?

Yes. Some of our homes are in the same community — in Hammonds Plains near Halifax, and in Chester Basin on the South Shore — so the wedding party and the family can stay close together. Tell us the headcount and we’ll suggest homes that work together.

How does payment work?

Each home is booked and paid for on its own, so the couple, the parents and the wedding party can each book and pay for a house. If one person is covering several homes, tell us when you plan it.
