Inn at the Quay is a waterfront wedding venue New Westminster couples can consider for ceremonies and receptions beside the Fraser River. The hotel’s official wedding information describes event spaces ranging from intimate dining rooms to a ballroom for celebrations of up to 150 guests, with water views central to the setting.

Located at Westminster Quay, the hotel combines dedicated wedding-event space with guest accommodation on the same property. Couples can submit a wedding RFP through the official site to discuss their date, guest count, room choice and food-and-beverage requirements.

Wedding setting and venue overview

Inn at the Quay is a waterfront hotel in New Westminster, British Columbia, with a dedicated Weddings section on its official website. Its wedding page describes ceremony and reception possibilities overlooking the water, including a patio setting and a ballroom with panoramic waterfront views.

The property sits on the Fraser River boardwalk at 900 Quayside Drive. This is a hotel venue rather than a stand-alone banquet hall, so couples considering a wedding weekend can also ask about guest rooms and hotel logistics alongside the event itself.

Services and specialization

The venue’s wedding offering is centred on ceremonies, receptions, event-space selection and planning support. The official site says its event-planning team helps couples refine the details of the day, and describes options from cocktail receptions to multi-course buffet service.

Food for events is catered by The Boathouse Restaurant, according to the official wedding and venue pages. Couples who want one venue to coordinate space and catering may find this structure useful, but should request a proposal for the exact menu format, service style and inclusions for their event.

Wedding spaces and guest counts

For wedding use, the official wedding page identifies three meeting rooms for intimate dinners of up to 30 guests and the Hyack Ballroom for larger celebrations of up to 150 guests. The ballroom is listed at 2,064 square feet and has a wraparound waterfront balcony.

The official venue page also lists an outdoor patio of 650 square feet with a maximum capacity of 120, plus smaller Riverside and Boardroom spaces. Published capacities vary by room configuration, so couples should treat these as planning references and confirm the capacity, layout and weather plan for their preferred ceremony or reception arrangement.

Outdoor Patio: 650 sq. ft.; venue-page maximum capacity of 120
Riverside and Boardroom: smaller-space options listed by the venue

Service area and who it may suit

Inn at the Quay may suit couples seeking a New Westminster venue with a Fraser River backdrop, rather than a rural or destination-resort setting. Its waterfront location and combination of indoor and outdoor spaces make it relevant for couples who want to explore a ceremony-and-reception event in one property.

The hotel positions itself in central Metro Vancouver and states that the nearest SkyTrain stop is two blocks away. Its wedding page also describes the property as roughly a 30-minute drive from downtown Vancouver and Vancouver International Airport; actual travel time will depend on traffic and the event schedule.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the range of waterfront-oriented spaces: the ballroom has a wraparound balcony, the patio is listed as an event space, and the hotel’s wedding material specifically presents river-view ceremony and reception possibilities. Another confirmed feature is the venue’s relationship with The Boathouse Restaurant for event catering.

The official pages do not set out a complete public wedding-inclusions list. They do not provide a full menu, beverage package, decor inventory, ceremony timing rules, outside-vendor policy or detailed weather-contingency plan. These are practical items to clarify before comparing proposals.

Pricing

Current pricing is not explicitly published. The official wedding page directs couples to submit a wedding RFP, so venue rental, catering minimums, service charges, taxes, room blocks and any ceremony-related fees should be requested in writing for the intended date and guest count.

When reviewing a proposal, ask which spaces are included, how long access is provided for setup and teardown, whether a ceremony and reception are both covered, and which food, beverage, staffing and rental charges are additional.

Current prices are not published on the official pages reviewed.

Contact and booking

To start an enquiry, use the Wedding RFP linked from Inn at the Quay’s official wedding page. The hotel lists its direct telephone number as 604.520.1776 and its general email as info@innatthequay.com.

Provide a preferred date or date range, anticipated guest count, whether you need a ceremony as well as a reception, preferred service style and any accommodation needs. That gives the events team the information needed to advise on suitable rooms and availability.

What couples should confirm

Before booking, confirm which room is available for the expected guest count and planned format, including whether the outdoor patio can be reserved for the ceremony and what the indoor backup plan would be. Ask to see the current food-and-beverage options from The Boathouse Restaurant and a complete estimate showing all venue, staffing, rental, tax and service charges.

Couples should also confirm room-block terms, guest parking and arrival instructions, accessibility needs, setup and teardown windows, rehearsal options, decor restrictions, music and A/V arrangements, and the deadline for final guest numbers. These details are not fully published on the official wedding pages and can vary by event date and package.
