The Norland is such a unique and classy venue in Southern Alberta. Every aspect of the space is stunning - from the building itself to the whole lot with beautiful foliage. As a wedding photographer in Lethbridge, the Norland is one of my favourite venues. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful location to have their wedding.

We got married here in October 2023 and it was one of the best decisions we made, wedding-wise. I found The Norland on Instagram months before we got engaged and was blown away with the beauty of it all! I couldn’t believe this venue existed in Alberta. I showed it to my now-husband when we first got engaged in June 2021 and we knew that we had to view it, and truthfully, it’s the only venue we looked at. We were immediately in-awe of the beauty of the huge trees lining the driveway to get to the mansion. There are 7 – acres of well-kept land, a huge 1910’s Southern-style mansion that you, your bridal party and family can use the day and night of, a huge ballroom that fits (I think) 300 guests, and a beautiful gazebo area where we opted to have our ceremony. Lots of couples either have their ceremonies there, or on another beautiful lawn, or in the drawing room (which is their back-up rain plan).The staff are amazing to work with! We initially had our tour in August 2021, 2.5 years before our actual wedding date, with Alexandra. She is friendly, easy to approach, replies to emails in a timely manner and is a treasure trove of information when it comes to wedding planning in the area. My now-husband and I are from north of Edmonton, so planning a wedding 600 km away was a bit of a challenge. After our in-person tour, we immediately booked with them with a 50% deposit. They have an in-house caterer, LA CHEFS, that I’ll also have a separate review for, but basically their food and staff were amazing! Payments were very easy to do with the venue. We were in contact with Lanai for this and she was very accommodating. She handles the accounts for multiple venues and she always responds so quickly to emails. We had to break up our final payments in different methods over a few days and she was very accommodating with that. Also, once we booked with The Norland, we were handed over to Trisha for wedding, buffet and bar planning and to answer all our questions. Since my husband and I planned our whole wedding, we had many questions for her over the 2.5 years and she was so quick to reply to emails and was very clear with answers. I never once felt unsure about our wedding planning process thanks to her. We were provided with the Wednesday before our wedding to rehearse in the venue, but because we were all from out of town, we weren’t able to do that, but to have that as an option is wonderful! The Norland also had staff the day of to greet us and our guests as we had to check in to the venue. There are 5 bedrooms upstairs for us to use, one room being the bridal suite. Everyone found there rooms beautiful, tidy and clean. They have everything you’ll need. Nonie was the staff member working with us the day of the wedding, and Mercedes helped us the next day. Both of them were very pleasant and wonderful to work with! Nonie helped me and my girls get settled in the main floor as we had to start our hair and makeup at 8 am, while the couple that got married there the day before us were packing up, as check out time is 10 am. The next morning, Mercedes made sure we had all our things ready to go and helped load things in our vehicles.I cannot recommend The Norland enough! It’s a beautiful venue with wonderful and helpful staff. Lots of people asked us why we were getting married in Lethbridge since it’s so far away from us and neither of us grew up there. I always said that it was because of the venue!

The Norland was the venue of our dreams. Not only is it an absolutely stunning estate, the entire team was supportive from the moment we first visited the facility for a tour through to our wedding. Strong organization, clear communication and a venue which anyone is lucky to have for their special day. Their recommendations for vendors were very much appreciated, the event-day staff were fantastic and the venue was exactly what we wanted. it was so nice being able to stay at the estate on the night of our wedding; there were beautiful rooms for our entire bridal party. Thank you!

We held our corporate Christmas party at the Norland and everything from initial contact, to working with the event coordinators and on site staff was amazing. The Norland is such a beautiful place that is also so functional at the same time. The food was amazing as everyone who has had the privilege of working with LA Chefs has experienced. The best venue in Alberta, hands down.

We had a Halloween wedding this year at the Norlands and we are beyond thrilled with this venue!! From the first inquiry we had quick responses and they answered all our questions and were very friendly! Nonie and grace were phenomenal and went above and beyond! The food was great and they accommodated allergies and vegetarians well! The venue is gorgeous and well taken care of. They even plowed the snow around the gazebo for us so we could do an outdoor ceremony. Highly highly recommend booking them- it’s well worth it!!

We had our wedding at The Norland in September and it was everything we could have imagined and then some. The venue itself is gorgeous, and the grounds are so well kept, but the day was made even better by the staff. Our day of coordinator with the venue, Nonie, was amazing. She was so helpful, despite our multiple day of requests, she was always smiling and was more than willing to help us out. I also want to mention that our two bartenders for the evening (whose names I wish I would have gotten) were incredible, they remembered everyone's orders and were flexible when we decided to make changes to the times our bar was open throughout the evening. All of our food was amazing and our guests raved about everything! Alexandra and Trisha were great to work with and made our planning process seamless by always responding to our many questions in a positive and timely manner. Cannot say enough about how amazing our day was, and we cannot thank The Norland enough for everything.

My husband and I got married at the Norland at the beginning of September and have nothing but amazing things to say about this venue. The service we received from start to finish was impeccable. Trisha was absolutely amazing to work with - she responded to emails very quickly, answered any and every question we had, and allowed us to come to site as many times as we needed.The day off went very smoothly. Everyone was so attentive and it was our dream wedding! This place is a well oiled machine!! Would highly recommend to anyone.

Beautiful venue with plenty of privacy. Outdoor grounds are perfect for pictures, an outdoor wedding, or a quiet escape from the party. Interior was just right for dinner and dance/partying.

Fantastic venue!! I had my wedding here in May and they were very helpful during the planning process and accommodating to make my day special! They even went as far as helping me do my ceremony in the pouring rain and calming a stressful bride (thankfully the rains stopped an hour before we started!) I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a fairytale/ outdoor themed wedding :)
