Design the Life You Want To Live

Last reviewed: August 11, 2026. Availability unconfirmed. Review pending.

Design the Life You Want To Live Durham Ontario is retained as a legacy Canada Wedding Guide record, but it is currently under review. The supplied former website now resolves to National Homes, a company that describes its business as designing, building, marketing and selling new homes. That is not enough to establish a current connection to the named wedding venue.

Because no current first-party wedding website, venue contact page, or matching official booking channel was found, this profile should not be used as confirmation that the venue is operating, accepting inquiries, or offering the services described in older listing material. The record is not marked closed; it simply needs reliable current evidence before it can be published as an active wedding-vendor profile.

Review status and identity evidence

This listing is review_pending as of 2026-08-11. The legacy website address redirects to the National Homes domain. National Homes’ official About Us page identifies the company as a new-home builder, while its official contact page lists a corporate office and design studio in Concord, Ontario.

The former website’s matching phone number is therefore not sufficient evidence that National Homes is the current operator of a Durham wedding venue named Design the Life You Want To Live. The similarity in legacy contact details creates a material identity conflict that requires clarification from the venue owner or an updated first-party website.

• Current first-party identity confirmed: National Homes, a residential home builder.
• Current first-party identity of the named wedding venue: not established.
• Operating status of the venue: not confirmed; this is not a closure finding.

Services and specialization

No current official venue page was found that documents wedding services for Design the Life You Want To Live. Older listing material describes a small woodland setting and event-related offerings, but it is not current first-party evidence and is not treated as verified in this profile.

Accordingly, Canada Wedding Guide cannot presently confirm ceremonies, receptions, accommodations, event rentals, planning, setup, cleanup, food service, bar service, décor, accessibility features, or outside-vendor policies. Couples should request a current package or written proposal directly from a verified representative before relying on any former description.

• Verified wedding services: none currently documented by a confirmed official venue source.
• Verified specialization: none currently documented.
• Legacy descriptions and former category labels require re-verification.

Service area and who it may suit

The legacy record associates the business name with Durham, Ontario, but no current official source confirms a venue address, service area, or travel radius. The former site’s current contact information belongs to National Homes in Concord and must not be substituted for a wedding-venue location.

Until a current venue address and operating contact are confirmed, this page should be treated as a research lead rather than a local booking option. It may be relevant to couples who recognise the former business name and are trying to locate updated ownership or contact information.

• Legacy locality: Durham, Ontario.
• Current venue address: unverified.
• Current service area and suitability: unverified.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A confirmed strength is not available at this stage because no matching first-party wedding source documents the venue’s facilities, team, policies, or event experience. The only confirmed current website relates to National Homes’ residential development business, not to the wedding listing.

The practical limitation is evidence quality: the name, website destination, and apparent business activity do not align. This should be resolved before couples depend on the page for contact details, event expectations, or venue comparisons.

• Strength to verify: a current official wedding website or direct venue-owned inquiry channel.
• Limitation: the supplied website now represents a different, non-wedding business.
• Limitation: no official venue address, phone number, package, or availability information is currently verified.

Pricing

Current wedding pricing is not explicitly published. The prices displayed on the current National Homes website concern residential properties and are unrelated to this wedding listing, so they are not relevant venue pricing.

Do not infer a site fee, minimum spend, guest-based price, accommodation rate, tax treatment, or inclusions from legacy material. A verified venue representative should provide an itemized, dated quote and state what is included.

• Current wedding packages: not verified.
• Current availability: not verified.
• Published wedding pricing: not available from a confirmed official venue source.

Contact and booking

No verified wedding-venue website, email address, phone number, or booking form is available for this business record. The National Homes contact details are confirmed only for National Homes and are deliberately not republished here as venue contact information.

Couples seeking this business should ask any prospective contact to confirm the legal or trading name, exact venue address, authority to accept bookings, and a current written contract before sharing payment details or making arrangements.

• Verified booking channel: none.
• Verified venue phone number: none.
• Verified venue postal address: none.

What couples should confirm

Before treating this as an active option, confirm that Design the Life You Want To Live is currently operating as a wedding venue in Durham, Ontario. Ask for a current official website or booking email that identifies the business and location, then compare it with the person issuing the contract.

If the venue is active, request its current event spaces, guest limits, wedding dates, weather plan, parking and transportation details, accommodation arrangements, insurance requirements, vendor rules, accessibility information, cancellation terms, payment schedule, and all taxes and service charges. These are essential booking details, not assumptions Canada Wedding Guide can make from the legacy listing.

• Confirm the venue’s current legal or trading name and physical address.
• Confirm current services, capacity, packages, inclusions, and pricing in writing.
• Confirm the booking representative’s authority and review the contract before paying a deposit.

Frequently asked questions

Why is Design the Life You Want To Live marked review pending?

The former website now identifies National Homes, a residential home builder, rather than the named wedding venue. No current first-party venue website or matching official booking channel was found.

Is there a verified phone number or address for the wedding venue?

No. The legacy phone number and current National Homes contact details cannot be verified as contact information for the named wedding venue, so they are not displayed as venue details.

Does the venue publish current wedding pricing?

Current wedding pricing is not explicitly published by a confirmed official venue source. Request a dated, itemized quote from a verified representative.
