The 10 Best Golf Course Wedding Venues in and Around Hamilton, Ontario
As a Hamilton wedding photographer, I have had the privilege of visiting many gorgeous wedding venues in the GTA and all of Southern Ontario. One of my favourite types of wedding venues though HAS to be a golf course! Golf courses always have stellar outdoor backdrops for your wedding ceremony and portraits, and spacious, well-lit interiors for your wedding reception (or indoor ceremony space in case of rain). To help couples choose their picture-perfect golf course wedding venue, I have compiled a list of my personal favourites. Enjoy!
