Setting the stage for lasting memories...

Willow & REN is Bruce County’s most intimate micro-venue, tucked away in Ripley, Ontario; just a stone’s throw from the Kincardine shores.

More than a venue, we’re your one-stop shop for rentals, décor, and events. Whether it’s a luxury picnic under the willows, on the beach, or in your backyard, or a beautifully simple wedding with the people that matter most, we bring your vision to life on-site or throughout the community.

Learn More About Us

Had a great experience with Willow & REN for our baby shower. We loved having both the indoor and outdoor spaces set up for our group. Many of our guests (including ourselves) hadn't been to the venue before but knew about it being local, and we could all see why it is so popular. Would recommend for your event too!

Mr & Mrs. Hamilton
“This place is absolutely a gem of a find! Such a unique blend of rustic and boho. This can handle small or even medium size venues. We will be booking for our baby and wedding showers here. This is a great spot for photography sessions as well. So much property; It’s a must see. ”

Ren went above and beyond to execute my vision for my wedding. Her customer service, communication, and attention to detail made my wedding go off without a hitch. She was very kind throughout the planning process, and she accommodated all my last minute request without any hesitation. Her rentals are incredibly beautiful, and I got compliments from all my guests. I highly suggest Willow and Ren for any of your event needs, you will not be disappointed .

Sarah
Had my daughter’s bridal shower here today! Something blue before I do! Absolutely beautiful! They went above and beyond! Thank you so very much! My daughter was thrilled!

Jenn
“She did an amazing job, no detail big or small was missed. We could not have been more happy with the end result…”

Mother of the Bride
Ren did the entire design and set up for my beach wedding and backyard reception and I could not have been more happy. I am not very creative so I had no idea what I really wanted. I gave Ren complete creative control and it turned out perfectly... They came and set up the space and then took everything down the next day so there was nothing I had to worry about. Ren was an absolutely joy to work with.

Stephanie
Willow and Ren helped with both rentals and day of coordinating for our wedding at the Rock Garden and Kincardine Pavilion, and they were fantastic. Their attention to detail and professionalism made everything run smoothly. They were communicative, organized, and ensured our day was stress free. Highly recommend their services.
