Manotick is a village on the Rideau with genuine character — and one of the few parts of Ottawa where a waterside or heritage-property event is realistic.
Events by Faya is an Ottawa event décor studio serving Manotick and the surrounding area. We handle wedding and nikah stages, mehndi and mayon setups, birthday and baby shower décor, floral design and event rentals — delivered, set up and taken down.

Manotick is a village on the Rideau with genuine heritage character — Watson's Mill and the riverside give it a setting no banquet hall can replicate — and the country properties toward Kars and Greely extend it.
The practical constraint in Manotick
Riverside and heritage grounds mean soft ground, wind off the water and no power without a generator or a long run from a building. Our stands are weighted; wind is the real variable and we will give you an honest read on whether a tall backdrop is sensible on an exposed site.
Travel: 30 minutes from central Ottawa via Prince of Wales.
