Wedding Ceremony

5:00 pm - 5:30 pm

The Sensory Event Space & Restaurant
300 Old Canmore Rd #201, Canmore, AB T1W 2X2, Canada

FYI, this part will be outside! Plan on 50 degrees. Cocktail attire is great! Or if you want to do black tie that's great too! We aren't picky. Just no flip flops with the bottle openers on the bottom @ Uncle Mark.

We'd prefer you be warm over follow any sort of traditional wedding dress code. Use that info as you wish!

Wedding Reception

5:30 pm - 9:00 pm

The Sensory Event Space & Restaurant
300 Old Canmore Road, Canmore, AB T1W 2X2, Canada

We will have food and drinks. And a vegetarian option!

Travel

Flight

Calgary

Calgary is where you want to fly into!

Travel Note

Turo!

We recommend Turo for rental cars. They can be much cheaper than normal companies!

Travel Note

AirBNB or VRBO

We recommend AirBNB or Turo in Canmore! There is not much housing available in Banff (plus the event is in Canmore).

Registry

The only gift we ask for is your presence at the wedding! In lieu of a registry, we put a honeymoon fund (It will go towards our stay in Banff and adventures over the week following our wedding), home fund, and student loan fund that is 100% optional! Please do not feel pressured to give, we know this is already an expensive trip! Our listed option is Venmo (through the links below), but cash or checks would work too! There is a fee for credit cards so that's why we skipped that option.

Wedding Party

If you're here, it's you!
