Getting Married in Nanaimo

A Nanaimo wedding has all the potential of being a classy affair in a stunning seaside environment or a dense forest. Favourite parks for weddings in Nanaimo include Pipers Lagoon, Neck Point, Newcastle Island, Bowen Park, and Departure Bay. There are also some bed & breakfasts that will allow a wedding to be held at their property – we know of a small wedding at a B&B on the waterfront in Lantzville, and there are some nice places in the Jinglepot area, near the Millstream.

We've also talked about Nanaimo wedding venues on our forum.
