The Bellflower is the sister venue of Cranberry Creek Gardens - the vintage charm and exceptional service you know us for but in a brand new location!

Arriving at The Bellflower feels like you’ve discovered a secret garden. Minutes from the 401 you pass through village of Ayr onto our country lane where you discover our idyllic gardens nestled in the forest.

Our Riverside Amphitheatre provides a natural ceremony backdrop while the Bellflower Manor and Rose Garden Terrace’s lush European inspired gardens allow you to create a custom outdoor reception, with an included tent for a weather proof plan.

We are currently booking ceremonies, cocktail hours, and intimate weddings up to 60 guests for 2027+ and will be offering larger receptions for somewhere between 80 and 150 in 2028.

Your ceremony at our riverside amphitheatre

Our primary ceremony location onsite is our Riverside Amphitheatre, boasting panoramic views of the Nith River and high level train bridge. This completely unique ceremony site is built in to the hillside with both natural and landscaped features surrounding it. In case of inclement weather, we have a tent available onsite for a fully weather-proof plan.
