Our Registry


While we prefer to receive cash in order to help pay for the wedding we understand this is not preferable for some people and therefore have made a gift registry with The Bay.  some of the advantages of using The Bay is that it is available online, or in stores across Canada. Delivery can be done at Any Bay location or can be arranged for us to pick it up. There is also a Bay very close to the Venue and the Hotel (in downtown Montreal)

The Registry is available from the link HERE
Click on FIND
Then search for either Melanie Smyth or Wade Colborne to find our registry.

Thank you very much and we look forward to seeing everyone soon!!

Our Venue




We selected the Thomson House as the location of our reception after my good friend Catherine was married last year and had her reception here.

This simple but elegant mansion was constructed in 1935 as a private residence and was purchased in 1968 by McGill to house the Post Graduate Students Society which it still does to this day.

This building is located at 3650 McTavish Street, If you wish to learn more you can visit their website at:
