Nova Scotia Weddings | DesBarres Manor Inn | Nova Scotia Wedding & Events Venue

We know you want your wedding, engagement party, anniversary or special event to be a personal expression of who you are. It is a representation of you, your family and your dreams. To us that means unique. So you won’t find sample catering menus here. We want to know about you. How you dream your wedding or special event to be. The perfect meal you have envisioned. The ideal decorations. The atmosphere that reflects the feeling of your celebration.

Thank you ALL so much for a beautiful venue for our wedding. And the food & service were FANTASTIC!!

With three distinct properties in the charming seaside village, the experienced DesBarres Manor team can provide you with unlimited opportunities to express yourself. The casual elegance of DesBarres Manor Inn, the remarkable oceanfront vistas of Osprey Shores Golf Resort and the East Coast openness of the Rare Bird each provide a distinct Nova Scotia wedding venue where you can live your dreams.

The grand deck and gazebo at DesBarres Manor Inn offer the perfect backdrop for memorable pictures and a casual setting for a pre-dinner cocktail reception. Our romantic fireside dining room can be the setting for an intimate dinner for 40. And our beautiful grounds are the ideal location for a beautiful tent wedding or special reunion. Everywhere, the atmosphere at DesBarres Manor Inn is one of quiet luxury, the perfect location for a remarkable event that you and your guests will remember forever.

“With views to rival those at Chester or Northumberland”, the magnificent oceanfront vistas of the Osprey Shores Golf Resort provide a dramatic setting for a tented wedding, reunion or special event. Inside the Osprey Shores Clubhouse, we can accommodate a sit down dinner for 100 guests.

The Rare Bird on Guysborough Harbour is Nova Scotia’s most unique event facility and can accommodate up to 180 guests. The waterfront patio and courtyard, described by Chronicle Herald as “one of the nicest patios in Nova Scotia”, provide a charming setting for a seaside reception for up to 155.

Let us show you why historic DesBarres Manor Inn and our family of seacoast wedding venues are your getaway for Nova Scotia weddings and special events.

Quote: My husband and I wanted an intimate, romantic setting for our wedding weekend and that is exactly what we got. The whole team at DesBarres Manor Inn was very helpful and professional in the organization and execution of our ideal special day. We wouldn’t have changed a thing. In fact, we have already made our reservations to celebrate our first anniversary at the Manor.
