celebrating every love story
We are the 'Rocky Mountain Wedding Collective'. A team of mountain dwelling, adventure seekers who naturally connected people and created inspiring experiences before we knew it was called wedding planning!
We all live in the Bow Valley (Canmore and Banff) and share a love for supporting local. We take our jobs seriously, but not ourselves. We have so much fun brainstorming beautiful things together, celebrating the small moments, and laughing till our cheeks hurt. We can't wait for you to join in on the good times.
Well hello you!
Planning weddings + chasing dreams.
We're not like the wedding planners you've seen on TV. You know, the ones with the headsets, a million checklists and an uncanny ability to speed walk in stilettos without tripping.
Aside from the checklists, which really are necessary, we do things differently and connect best with couples who want to approach their wedding unconventionally too. We value experience over production and aim to craft moments of meaningful human connection because that's what a wedding is all about.
Unconventional
Sipper of coffee and craft beer. Wearer of toques and Blundstones. Pup mom. Avid supporter of local food & local business. Part-time backcountry explorer.
My partner and I reside in Banff, with our pup Casey, and spend most of our spare time camping, hiking, and skiing. Hailing from Ontario, and always up for an adventure, I now know I was destined for the Rocky Mountains.
My passion has always been people-focused. With over 10 years in the hospitality & events industry, I was very much attracted to engaging with people, understanding their needs and looking to go above and beyond to fulfill them.
Building and maintaining relationships is what drives my purpose as the lead Banff Wedding Planner of Rocky Mountain Elopements. I can’t wait to connect with you, and help you plan your dream one-of-a-kind wedding or intimate elopement in Banff, Canmore or surrounding areas.
Kristin Decorato (Nicol)
executive wedding planner
Sourdough baker, hammock enthusiast, and proud plant mom. I’m an adventure seeker in my cozy era, savoring slow mornings with good coffee, fresh mountain air, and a life lived with intention.
After three transformative years abroad, exploring eleven countries and calling three of them home, I’ve returned to my element, unable to resist the call of the Rockies any longer. Although I’m not a huge fan of the cold, the mountains have a way of pulling me out of hibernation. I love snowboarding and capturing the stunning landscapes through my watercolors or photography. Having lived in Lake Louise, Jasper, and now Banff, I’m excited to share my insights as your local guide.
Creating meaningful moments fills my cup. Every love story is unique, and I truly look forward to hearing each one. I may be a bit cheesy when I say I 'love love,' but it’s absolutely true. I’m here to make your wedding stress-free, allowing you to focus entirely on the love you share. I feel incredibly grateful to be part of a company that values intentional living; it genuinely feels like where I belong. I can’t wait to bring your vision to life and craft an elopement that beautifully reflects your love story.
Trinity Chapman
wedding planner
With over 15 years of background in event coordination, hospitality management, and wedding planning, I’m thrilled to bring my experience with me to each celebration.
Fueled by a love for creativity and a knack for details, I’m here to make sure your day flows smoothly from start to finish. There’s nothing I enjoy more than taking your unique vision and turning it into a beautiful, unforgettable day that truly feels like you.
I’m all about keeping things professional and friendly, so you can feel at ease every step of the way. My philosophy is that each and every wedding is a chance to create something one-of-a-kind, and it’s an honor to help make your special day just that!
When I’m not busy planning events, you’ll find me hunting for the perfect hot chocolate, cozied up with a good book or out exploring the great outdoors with my dogs!
Lisa Wilson
wedding planner
I'm equal parts creative and calm, and I bring a steady hand and a designer’s eye to every wedding I touch. With a background in fashion and years of experience in wedding and event planning, I have an innate gift for turning vision boards into real-life magic—always with intention, style, and just the right amount of sparkle.
I’m a proud boy mom to three little ones under six (yes, my house is very loud), and my life is filled with love, movement, and moments of beautiful chaos. I draw inspiration from time spent in nature with my family—especially waterfalls and mountain views—and I channel that same grounded energy into each celebration I help bring to life.
Clients often tell me I have a calming presence and a knack for making them feel instantly taken care of. I’m detail-obsessed in the best way, deeply thoughtful, and always two steps ahead—usually with a London Fog in one hand and a well-loved clipboard in the other.
When I’m not planning weddings, you’ll find me squeezing in a workout, chasing my kids (and sometimes my husband), or mapping out our next great family getaway—because somehow, even my downtime comes with a beautifully organized itinerary.
Lauren Weese
wedding planner
With a creative heart and a love for all things wedding, I bring a calm, collected energy to every celebration I’m part of. Whether I’m organizing timelines or making sure every detail looks just right, my thoughtful presence and eye for beauty help couples feel completely at ease.
When I’m not working my magic behind the scenes, you’ll often find me behind the chair at the salon, prepping my lovely clients for their big day. Outside of work, I’m a lover of all things outdoors—hiking, biking, camping, and soaking up nature with my two fur babies. I’m also an avid reader, an arts-and-crafts enthusiast, a sports fan, and a proud foodie who’s always up for trying something new.
If I were a drink, I’d be a vibrant cocktail—layered, fun, and full of personality!
