Welcome to Country Vegas Elopements
Video by Sadie Martin

The Country Vegas experience in Hamilton is all about eloping!
Forget the big guest list, forget the months of planning, forget the investment,
and forget all the stress!
Our elopement venue is located minutes from downtown Hamilton on a beautiful 1.5 acre property surrounded by beautiful scenic farm fields. Our outdoor ceremony site features a handcrafted barn beam arbour with a westward view of a sunset country backdrop.
We also offer a unique indoor ceremony and reception space. The space fuses rustic country, industrial and1960s style décor.
Have us take care of all the details!
The venue, the officiant, the photographer, the food, the music, refreshments
and more.
Have us stream the entire wedding to all your family and friends!
Our media team is happy to capture high quality photos and cinema quality video of your ceremony and all the special moments of your personal celebration.
The choices are yours.
We have designed a variety of intimate wedding and elopement experiences that will hopefully exceed your expectations.
Let’s get started!
Absolutely perfect! We stumbled across Country Vegas by accident and I am so thankful we did! The very first thing we noticed is how much Donny and his team loves what they do, which is very important.
From the first phone call to the last kiss, he walked us through the entire process.
Such a warm and welcoming atmosphere and beautiful property!
Very cool little details everywhere.
