Cocktail to Semi-Formal. Women: a fancy cocktail dress, a floor-length gown, or a dressy pantsuit are all lovely options. Men: a suit and tie preferred.
Arriving a day before the ceremony is plenty of time to get settled in. If you wish to explore Banff National Park we recommend allotting 1-2 days before or after the ceremony. There is a lot to see in Banff and other national parks nearby, so even a week in this area would not be too much. Check out the "Schedule" page for optional group events and the "Things to Do" page for other ideas!
The charming town of Canmore is where the reception will be held and is only 20 minutes from Banff. There are many hotels and apartment rentals available.
The easiest way is to rent a car. The drive is just over an hour. It is possible to carpool with others who arrive at a similar time. Shuttles are also available.
The ceremony is outdoors, while the reception is indoors. September in Banff can be on the chilly side and would be best to have a light sweater. The reception is indoors.
Unfortunately we are not able to accommodate anyone under 21 for our big day.
