Your wedding · Grote Markt, Haarlem

Say “I do” in Haarlem. Raise a glass at Vester.

Getting married at the city hall on Haarlem’s Grote Markt? Come and celebrate at Vester afterwards. The vows are spoken and your favourite people are all together. Time for that first toast.

From a quick drink after the ceremony to a relaxed reception, a long dinner or a complete wedding party with a DJ: let’s make it a celebration that feels like you.

Start planning your celebration

A festive table with drinks and dishes to share at Vester

From the first toast to the last dance

Gather around the table for shared dining, take your time over a multi-course dinner or let everyone mingle over small dishes at a walking dinner. Prefer to begin with drinks and bites? We can do that too.

Our group menu is a starting point. Menu adaptations, dietary requirements and your own ideas are all open for discussion. Together we will agree the details, including the possibilities for a complete party with a DJ.
