Lagotto Romagnolo Puppies, Dog Breeders & Truffle Farmers

Last reviewed: October 6, 2026. Availability unconfirmed. Review pending.

This listing requires manual identity review before it can be presented as a confirmed Parksville farm wedding venue. The current Canada Wedding Guide title refers to Lagotto Romagnolo puppies, dog breeding and truffle farming, while the candidate first-party material uses The Truffle Farm as the venue name. Although those subjects overlap, the supplied identity result is not strong enough to establish that the wedding operation and this CWG record are the same current business.

The candidate material contains detailed operator statements about weddings in Parksville, including a barn, farm-to-table dining and customized planning. Those statements are summarized below only to help with verification; they should not be read as independently confirmed facts about the company named in the existing listing. The record was last reviewed on October 6, 2026.

Services and specialization

The candidate operator material presents a working truffle farm that hosts ceremonies and receptions on one property. It describes the Truffle Barn as the main enclosed event space and says wedding meals can feature farm-grown Black Périgord truffles, seasonal ingredients, BC wine and family-style dining.

It also describes customized planning rather than fixed wedding packages. Florals, décor, menus, schedules and outside services are said to be selected around each celebration. These are operator claims from the candidate business and remain subject to identity confirmation.

• Ceremony and reception planning are described on the candidate site.
• Farm dining, seasonal florals and optional wedding services are presented as areas of specialization.

Service area and who it may suit

The candidate material places the venue in Parksville and markets it to couples considering Nanaimo-area or Vancouver Island weddings. It says the property is about a 30-minute drive north of Nanaimo.

The stated format may interest couples planning an intimate farm celebration, particularly those who prefer one long dining table and a food-focused event. The operator states that the barn seats up to 60 guests, but couples should verify capacity for their exact ceremony, dinner, dance floor and weather plan.

• Potential fit: smaller guest lists and farm-to-table celebrations.
• Confirm travel time, transportation and the layout allowed for the intended guest count.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

No venue features can yet be confirmed for this CWG business record because the identity link remains unresolved. The candidate site documents an air-conditioned barn, orchard access, a roll-up door leading outdoors and a private suite called the Truffle Hut. It says the suite sleeps four and may be used for preparation or overnight accommodation.

The principal limitation is evidentiary rather than a negative assessment of the venue. The current listing title does not clearly identify The Truffle Farm as its wedding business name. Availability, accessibility, licensed service arrangements, rain plans and the precise scope of included coordination are also not established by the CWG record.

• Documented candidate features must be matched to the correct legal or operating business.
• Outdoor use and tent extensions should be confirmed for the specific event plan.

Pricing

Current wedding prices are not published. The candidate material says there is no fixed package and that a customized quote follows a farm visit, consultation and wedding checklist.

The candidate operator also states that a $2,000 deposit holds the date and that the final balance is due 60 days before the event. Separate starting prices appear for optional services, but couples should obtain a written quote showing taxes, gratuities, staffing, rentals, food, beverages, accommodation and cancellation terms. Deposit requirements should not be relied upon until the business identity and current contract are confirmed.

• Request a complete written quote for the selected date and guest count.
• Confirm whether optional-service prices come from the venue or separate providers.

Contact and booking

The candidate material describes a booking process beginning with a property visit and consultation, followed by a checklist, an optional tasting, a customized quote and a contract. It asks couples to provide preferred dates, estimated guest count, ceremony timing and areas of interest.

An address and phone number appear in the candidate material, but they are not republished here because the connection between that business and this CWG listing requires manual verification. Couples should confirm the current business name and authorized contact before providing personal information or paying a deposit.

• Confirm who is authorized to issue the contract and accept payment.
• Ensure the contract identifies the venue, event date and all promised inclusions.

What couples should confirm

Start by confirming that the business behind this CWG record currently operates the wedding venue described in the candidate material. Ask for the venue's full operating name, physical address and current wedding contact in writing.

Couples should then verify indoor seated capacity, outdoor and tent options, accommodation availability, accessibility, meal format, dietary handling, alcohol service, vendor responsibilities and insurance requirements. The quote should distinguish venue-provided services from services delivered by outside professionals and explain what happens if weather or another disruption changes the event plan.

• Business identity, address, contact person and authority to contract.
• Capacity, accessibility, weather backup, accommodation and event end times.
• Itemized pricing, payment schedule, refund policy and third-party vendor terms.

Frequently asked questions

Why is this listing marked review pending?

The existing CWG title identifies a puppy breeder and truffle farmer, while the candidate wedding material uses The Truffle Farm as the venue brand. The subjects overlap, but the supplied identity assessment does not conclusively establish that they are the same current business.

What capacity does the candidate venue claim?

The candidate operator material states that the Truffle Barn seats up to 60 guests at a long table. Couples should confirm capacity for their intended floor plan and whether any outdoor or tented extension changes the permitted guest count.

Does the candidate business publish a wedding package price?

No fixed wedding package price is shown. The operator describes customized quotes and states that a $2,000 deposit is required, but all current amounts and terms should be verified in a written contract after the business identity is confirmed.
