The Carlu is an Art Deco wedding venue in downtown Toronto housed inside a beautifully restored 1930s landmark. Originally built as part of Eaton’s College Street department store, it’s one of the city’s most architecturally significant event spaces.

The venue features three distinct rooms, each with its own personality. The Round Room is the showpiece, with a domed ceiling, dramatic curved walls, and Art Deco detailing that creates a sense of grandeur. The Concert Hall offers a more intimate atmosphere with warm wood panelling and rich tones. The Sky Room adds a sleek, contemporary counterpoint. Together, they give couples flexibility to host ceremonies, cocktail hours, and receptions all under one roof.

Oliver and Bonacini manages catering and events at The Carlu, so the food and service match the setting. Menus are custom-built, and the events team coordinates every logistical detail. Because the architecture does so much of the design work on its own, couples can let the space shine or layer in bold florals and lighting for a more dramatic look. Either way, it photographs beautifully from every angle.

For couples who want an Art Deco wedding venue in Toronto with history, character, and world-class hospitality, The Carlu is one of the finest options in the city. Explore real celebrations featured on WedLuxe for ideas on how iconic architecture sets the tone for a luxury wedding.
