There are few places on the planet that hold the same stunning allure as the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Nestled beneath these scenic peaks, the picturesque townsites of Banff, Canmore, and Lake Louise draw couples from across the country and around the world to celebrate their big day against the rugged backdrop of the Rockies. 

That said, we know that planning even a local wedding can be stressful enough – never mind trying to coordinate catering, cake deliveries, and calla lily arrangements from half a world away! 

Don’t worry, though. The team at Rocky Mountain Weddings & Events has you covered
Operating under the umbrella of the Rocky Mountain Wedding Collective – a creative collaboration of locally-based wedding planners and vendors –  Rocky Mountain Weddings & Events is the longest-established wedding planning business in Banff. Led by Executive Wedding Planner Kristin Nicol, the RMWE team seeks to provide couples with a singularly modern wedding experience, marrying the sophistication of upscale event planning with the rugged beauty and natural wonder of the Rocky Mountains.

There’s something to be said for hiring local. 

Whatever your concept or creative vision, Rocky Mountain Weddings & Events is ready to make it a reality. With a familiarity that can only come from years spent living and working in the Bow Valley, the RMWE team is ready with the local knowledge, vendor connections, and mountain-specific experience required to ensure your big day is more than just special, but effortless and stress-free as well.

Banff, the Bow Valley, and Beyond

The Canadians Rockies and Banff are near-synonymous in the minds of most folks – but there’s so much more out here to explore and discover beyond our world-famous mountain town. 

Start by heading just 19 minutes east of Banff and you’ll encounter the rustic town of Canmore: a beautiful Bow Valley locale situated the soaring peaks of the Three Sisters and offering an unparalleled Rocky Mountain experience. 

Keep driving past Canmore and you’ll find yourself in Kananaskis Country: a vast mountain playground spanning thousands of square kilometers of rocky peaks and rustic splendour. Further east is Cochrane – Alberta’s very own home-on-the-range featuring western trappings and an authentic foothills aesthetic, all situated against the majestic backdrop of the nearby Rocky Mountain range. 

Leave Banff headed out in the other direction and it won’t be long before you discover Lake Louise – home to the iconic Chateau Lake Louise, the stunning turquoise-green waters of Lake Louise itself, and some of the best skiing and snowboarding this side of the Rockies. 

Drive further west and you’ll make your way out of the Bow Valley and across the provincial border into British Columbia where you’ll encounter Emerald Lake, Golden, and Revelstoke to name just a few of the beautiful BC towns along the way – or, head north, and you’ll sooner or later hit Jasper, the biggest national park in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. 

Stunning vistas abound here in the Bow Valley – and Rocky Mountain Weddings & Events can’t wait to help you discover each and every one of them.
