Last reviewed: August 11, 2026. The Waring House is an active Prince Edward County wedding venue in Picton, Ontario, with a current official weddings page and a direct wedding enquiry form. The property presents weddings alongside its inn, dining and accommodation offerings, rather than as a stand-alone banquet facility.

For couples considering a celebration where ceremony, reception and guest stays may happen in one place, the official information documents gardens, indoor rooms, a wedding coordinator and 49 guest rooms. It also describes options from elopements to larger celebrations, although the right fit depends on the selected space, guest count, date and package details confirmed directly with the venue.

Services and specialization

The verified wedding offering includes custom wedding packages, an elopement package and wedding-day coordination. For custom weddings, the current official page lists a garden gazebo or Waring Hall ceremony, hall set-up and teardown, white linens and napkins, place settings, access to photo areas, and an exclusive chef, kitchen, service team and bartender. Soft drinks and the venue fee are also listed as included.

The elopement package is described for two people and includes an on-site ceremony with a certified officiant, an hour of photography with a preferred vendor, flowers, one night in the Bridal Suite, breakfast and on-site coordination. The page says Sunday-to-Thursday availability is subject to availability, with weekend elopements also possible on request. Couples should treat all package details as subject to the venue’s current written quote.

Service area and who it may suit

The Waring House identifies itself as being in Picton, in Prince Edward County. Its current contact page says it is two minutes west of Picton at the roundabout. The venue is therefore most relevant to couples planning a Prince Edward County wedding or bringing guests to Picton for a multi-day stay.

The documented room mix may suit couples who want accommodation available at the property for some guests. The official site describes 49 guest rooms across the Main House, House Next Door, Cottage, Quaker Lodge and Heritage Lodge. It does not state that all rooms are included with a wedding, held for every event or available on every date, so accommodation arrangements need direct confirmation.

Spaces and documented event scale

The current wedding page names three wedding spaces. Amelia’s Garden Dining Room is described for intimate weddings of up to 50 guests. Waring Hall seats up to 130 indoors, with tents available for up to 150. The Prince Edward Room is described for elopements, vow renewals and reception dinners of up to 26 guests.

These figures are useful starting points, not a guarantee of a particular layout. The official page notes that tents are sourced through rental partners and can be arranged during planning. Ask how the stated maximum applies to the chosen ceremony, dinner, dance floor and weather plan.

Amelia’s Garden Dining Room: up to 50 guests
Waring Hall: up to 130 indoors
Tent option: up to 150 guests
Prince Edward Room: up to 26 guests

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the combination of event spaces with on-site accommodation: the venue currently lists garden, indoor and tented options as well as 49 guest rooms. Another confirmed feature is the on-site coordinator included with weddings, who the venue says can work with a couple’s planner or provide planning support. These are documented features, not an assessment of service quality.

There is an address discrepancy on official pages. The current contact page gives 395 County Road 1, Picton, Ontario, K0K 2T0, while an older contact page on the same domain gives 395 Sandy Hook Road with the same postal code. To avoid presenting a potentially inconsistent address, no address is displayed in this profile. Confirm the exact arrival, mailing and vendor load-in address before signing or sharing directions.

Pricing

Current pricing is not explicitly published. The current wedding page says custom packages are tailored to budget and preferences and asks couples to contact the wedding coordinator for a personalized quote.

The page does publish a minimum of 50 guests for custom weddings and says weddings below that threshold carry an additional $500 fee. An older downloadable wedding-package PDF contains dated rates that explicitly expired in 2022, so those figures should not be used for present budgeting. Request a current written proposal covering the selected room, food and beverage, tent or rental needs, staffing, taxes, gratuities, accommodation and any smaller-wedding charges.

Published fee for fewer than 50 guests: $500

Contact and booking

Use the official wedding enquiry form to share a preferred date, whether it is flexible, expected guest count and indoor or outdoor preference. The current weddings page also lists 613-476-7492 ext. 4221 for the Premium Room Honeymoon Rate; the main contact page lists 613-476-7492 ext. 1 for Guest Services. For a wedding booking, start with the wedding form and ask which contact is handling the date.

The official page provides an active enquiry route, but it does not show live availability. A submitted enquiry or phone conversation is needed to establish whether a date, room block, preferred space and package are available.

What couples should confirm

Before booking, ask for the current package inclusions and exclusions in writing. In particular, confirm the venue or room selected, guest-count calculation, ceremony location, tent supplier and weather procedure, bar format, menu and dietary process, coordinator scope, set-up schedule, décor restrictions, sound or music arrangements, and whether outside vendors are permitted.

Also confirm the number and type of rooms that can be reserved for the wedding, the honeymoon-room offer if relevant, access times for vendors and guests, accessibility needs, parking and transportation plans, payment milestones, taxes and gratuities, cancellation terms and the precise site address. These questions address information not fully published on the current wedding page.
