The venue address is: 6251 Cecil Green Park Rd, Vancouver, BC V6T 1X8, Canada
Rideshare services can reach this venue, as well as public transportation. Here is the bus map for that area.
There are a couple paid parking options at the venue. Please check out our Travel page for more parking details!
If you are staying at the UBS campus hotel, the walk to the venue is about 10 min. There are some stairs and slight inclines on that route. So if you are wearing heels, maybe consider wearing more comfortable shoes for the walk and change into the heels at the venue. We will have a storage area for extra belongings, like shoes.

Unfortunately, parking is fairly limited next to the venue. If all parking near the venue is taken, you can park at UBC Rose Garden Parkade which is about a 4 min walk from the venue.
If you are staying at a hotel on the UBC campus, you’ll be just a 10 min walk from the venue!

A couple factors played into our decision for a Wedding in Canada. Mainly, British Columbia has a special place in our hearts, especially after Chris proposed on a trip to Victoria.
We also found that most venues in Vancouver were more affordable than many of the PNW venues we toured.
Lastly, over half of our guests are driving from Washington, so it ended up being a shorter trip for most attendees to go to Vancouver, BC vs driving down to Portland.
