Private Estate Offers Memorable Weddings and Honeymoons

Getting married to your beloved is a truly special once-in-a-lifetime event. Imagine that day and the importance of having friends and family gather around you to share in your joy. Imagine all of this on 5,000 acres of a private estate, just two and a half hours north of Toronto, in the charming village of Haliburton. This enchanted place is romance at its finest!

Domain of Killien is one of Ontario’Äôs best kept secrets. Once you have been there you’Äôll know why. It offers just 12 intimate rooms and guest cabins, a private beach, lakes and walking trails. The chef's cuisine is the finest French fare this side of Paris! The inn is owned by French innkeeper Jean-Edouard de Marenches and family. It truly is a little bit of France without the flight across the Atlantic.

For weddings, guests can rent the entire inn for their special event or if it is a wedding just for two, the inn offers privacy and intimacy that will make your day a treasured event. Many brides choose a lakeside ceremony in warm weather while fireside ceremonies in the main lodge are perfect for those celebrations in the winter months.

Outdoor receptions can be held under the stars, on the front deck or in a wedding tent. For smaller gatherings, a reception by the stone fireplace in the log Retreat building is a warm and cozy, secluded nook. They can cater to your every need in their private and exclusive setting. Where else can you have an entire estate all to yourself?

Domain of Killien is famous for great food and romantic retreats and is a perfect honeymoon and rekindling destination. Personal, private - a paradise - it’Äôs all here waiting for you. As Innkeeper Jean-Edouard says, "Master the art of doing nothing... beautifully."
