Supreme Showers and Special Events

 

At the Schoolhouse is also an Ottawa area favourite for hosting and planning your next Baby Shower, Bridal Shower or Special Event! Like our approach to weddings, our focus is to provide the most elegant, affordable and stress-free solution for you - the host or planner.

 

Our contemporary facilities offer every amenity that you would need for any event you are planning. These include: state-of-the-art audio and visual capabilities, a separate break-out room, kitchen, tableware/barware and an abundant supply of decorative articles. Our gorgeous and unique venue is located just 25 mins west of downtown Ottawa and we have ample free parking.

 

Let’s face it…Life is busy, so don’t suffer the headache of planning your next function. After all, the focus of any gathering should be about the people involved; whether they are friends, family, or colleagues. Drop us a line, share your vision, and let us take care of the rest!

 

For your reference, our Supreme Shower and Events Package is itemized below.

 

Food Service

 

• Assuming you are providing your own food, we would just need to know what is being served in order to ensure that it is properly executed.

• We also have a full catered option available. Contact us for details.

• Coffee and tea and non alcoholic punch station included (nominal fee for product - or option to provide your own).

• Cupcakes or cake are optional and you can also supply your own.

• Service attendant (for service assistance, bussing, set up and clean up).

• Full set up / clean up (includes absolutely everything you need - chairs, tables, cutlery, plates, glassware - Sounds silly to mention, but many other places charge for all these inclusions).

 

Bar Service (optional)

 

• If you wish to serve alcohol to your guests, you also get the added bonus of providing your own product which offers significant cost savings, and flexibility. A Special Occasions Permit (S.O.P.) from the LCBO (cost $25) is required, but we’ll look after all the leg-work. You only need to sign-off as permit holder for your event.

• We can also provide a Smart Serve Designated bar tender which is a requirement under the S.O.P. policies.

 

Room Decor

 

• Professionally decorated with a seasonal flavour. Includes full table decorations (tea lights, conventional centerpieces).

• Floral decor available - very affordable and we should discuss.

 

Room Amenities

 

• Use of surround sound stereo system - this is included with any package but we highlight this inclusion because our system negates the need for a dj. It was professional installed, custom to our venue. It is fully adaptable with any type of external music device. Our clients love this feature because it saves them $$ and they get to provide the music that they want.

• Use of 52 inch LCD screen for slide show. All we need is an external device that contains pics and we can display a nice slide show for your guests. No set-up on your part - we only need the pics and my techy partner does the rest! I strongly recommend utilizing the slide show because it is free with all our bookings and it is always received so well with guests.
