We’re thrilled to share a special Q&A with someone who knows Sherwood Inn weddings inside and out - both professionally, and personally! Christina, our talented Conference Services Manager has helped countless couples plan their dream day here on the shores of Lake Joseph. But what makes her story even more special? She also chose Sherwood Inn for her very own wedding!
In this interview, Christina shares her unique perspective, insider tips, and why this Muskoka gem holds such a meaningful place in her heart. Let’s dive in!

Us: Why did you opt for an “off-season” wedding?
CVK: When you work in the “industry” trying to get married on a beautiful fall day isn’t always in the cards. We got engaged December 2010, knew we didn’t want to wait too long, and by end of January 2011 we knew April 30th at Sherwood Inn was for us!
Us: Did you always want to be married at Sherwood Inn?
CVK: My initial thought was, NO. Too cliché. It is where I work, and where I met my now husband. But after what felt like a lengthy search spanning from Windsor to Woodstock, we thought what a better way to share Muskoka with our family and friends than right here at Sherwood Inn.

Us: Did you have any concerns about getting married in April?
CVK: To be honest, not really. I had been in Muskoka for almost 10 years, and by then I understood the ups and downs of spring in Muskoka. Getting married in April also meant off season pricing making it more affordable for family + friends to join us.
Us: Do you remember what the weather was like that weekend?
CVK: I do! It was cool and rainy all week! When we woke up on Saturday the sun was shining - although the Pointe was too mucky for a ceremony, so we got married inside. It was okay! We had all our photos outside, and during cocktails our guests got to enjoy the outdoors as well.

Us: Any advice for couples that may be considering an off-season wedding?
CVK: Just do it! It is so worth it! There are so many benefits; Muskoka is quieter, the Lake is quiet, over the years we have learned that there are not only 2 options for a Ceremony (the Point or indoors). We can host weddings on our Veranda Deck or in our Garden as well! It is more economical for accommodations, venue fees, etc. In fact, right now Sherwood Inn has an amazing off-season wedding package, so if you were at all curious about getting married in the Winter or Spring, let this be your sign!

After errands in Athens I wanted one micro-session before meeting friends in Psyrri. Crash made sense: two safe exits, one stretch only if the line behaved, then out. I hopped into savaspin bonus code; the conservative flights smoothed the chart and the third floated beyond target. Greece keeps priorities straight—street music beats graphs. I followed the bouzouki and left the balance untouched so tomorrow starts calm. We ended up swapping bad-beat tales and laughing—ego fixed faster by song than any multiplier.
