Rustic Beauty: Centre Goeland Wedding Venue

Everyone loves a little fantasy — and when it comes to planning your dream wedding, there are certain places that make it possible to make your fantasy a reality! Trying to track these mythical places down, however, can be a bit tricky if you don’t know where to look. Luckily, as a PEI wedding photographer, I’ve spent countless hours scouring Prince Edward Island to find the perfect places to make your dreams come true, like the Centre Goeland wedding venue.

Located in the Wellington area, Centre Goeland is one of the more unique PEI wedding venues and one of my personal favourites. A magical place that’s hidden at the end of an extremely long driveway, you’ll feel like you’re heading far from reality and directly into Hogwarts!

Gorgeous grounds full of lush foliage surround this beautiful venue. Stained wood floors and walls in the main entrance area — which is the perfect place for the reception — have a flood of natural light from the epically large windows that span from floor to ceiling. It gives us a perfect snapshot of the grounds and, as a Centre Goeland wedding photographer, is an ideal spot to capture incredible photos!

About Centre Goeland Wedding Venue

The sky’s the limit when it comes to this amazing space, but I wanted to start with how much I love the options available for Centre Goeland wedding photography!

Not only does the indoor reception area offer an amazing view of the ground, the outdoor ceremony space puts you right in the middle of it. There’s a specific location with a stone arch and chairs around a stone wall — total castle vibes, btw — but you can also bring your own arch and have the ceremony along the cliffs of the island, with the sunset painting the backdrop behind you.

The ceremony area also gives us a chance to take some amazing couples portraits and wander the grounds for gorgeous candids. There are so many spots to choose from, and taking you around to find them can be so much fun for everyone. (And if you want other locations for your wedding day photos to mix things up, I have plenty!).

Why You Should Consider A Centre Goeland Wedding

Centre Goeland offers you the chance to mix open spaces and modern styling with a layer of rustic charm — and lots of indoor and outdoor options!

  • Plenty of areas for you and your wedding party to get ready 
  • A few locations to choose from for an on-site ceremony
  • An ideal indoor space for an on-site reception 

Plus, there’s an on-site kitchen where vendors can prepare meals and cook on the day of the event! It’s truly one of the best places for your intimate PEI wedding, and it makes it truly easy to make your wedding fantasy a reality — offering pretty much all the amenities you could ask for. 

Aesthetic And Vibes

Surrounded by trees and nature, it’s as if the grounds from Harry Potter landed in PEI! Magical, mystical, and wide open. Inviting. Comfortable. Plenty of natural light. Relaxed. Epic. 

Accommodations 

The venue has plenty of rooms for guests (up to 48) which means you have an intimate group of family and loved ones on-site with you for the journey — and if you choose to make a weekend of it, you can!
