Le 9e Wedding Photographer & Filmmaker


A modern love story inside one of Montreal’s most historic treasures

The Venue



Le 9e is one of the most iconic and beautifully preserved Art Deco spaces in Montreal. Originally built in the 1930s, it once served as the famous 9th-floor restaurant of Eaton’s, a glamorous dining hall known as Le 9e. After years of being closed to the public, the space has been fully restored, keeping its dramatic architecture, gold details, marble, curved lines and breathtaking Art Deco murals.

Walking into Le 9e feels like stepping into a beautiful time capsule. The ceilings, the lighting, the symmetry, everything is intentional. Everything feels cinematic. It’s elegant, grand and unlike any other wedding venue in Montreal.


A Bit of History


Le 9e was designed by celebrated architect Jacques Carlu, who also designed the iconic Eaton’s 7th Floor in Toronto. The Montreal location became a landmark of Art Deco design and high society dining. It was known for its refinement, its glamorous atmosphere and its forward-thinking architectural style.

Today, the restoration honors that history while giving couples a venue that feels luxurious, elevated and timeless.
