Travel Note
The town of Banff is located within Banff National Park and is a small resort town. While there are a number of bus and shuttle services that connect the town with nearby ski resorts and other attractions, if you are looking to get out early or explore off the beaten path, you might want to consider getting a rental car. They are available on-site at the YYC airport. Parking (free or paid) in downtown Banff is often hard to find and, even with a rental car, it's often easier to rely on the Banff bus system when exploring around town.

Hotel
There are plenty of great hotel options in Banff, and all are a short drive or bus ride from the wedding venue - you can't go wrong! If you need some inspiration, below are some of our recommended options: Fairmont Banff Springs: The most convenient option for wedding festivities, but inventory is limited, and prices are likely to be high. Hotel Canoe & Suites: Where Mike and Lily stayed when they first fell in love with Banff! A great and relatively new hotel option close to downtown with a Roam stop right out front. Basecamp Suites Banff: A great hotel option in the heart of Downtown, specializing in suite-style offerings if you want to coordinate with friends or family. Located right around the corner from one of our favorite Italian restaurants, Lupo!
