Attire recommendations for each event are described briefly in the schedule section. Please avoid wearing white, ivory, cream, beige, etc., as these colors are reserved for the bride.

Can I bring a plus one?

Unfortunately, we have a strict guest list due to the small size of our wedding. The lodge can only accommodate those listed on your wedding invitation.

Are kids allowed?
Answer
Although we love your children, we regretfully cannot accommodate them at the venue due to restricted numbers. As a result, our wedding weekend will be adults only (21 and over).

If you browse our wedding registry and decide to purchase a gift, any items can be shipped directly to the address listed.

What will the weather be like?

The weather at the end of May can be unpredictable. When visiting Banff a couple of years ago, we wore layers; at times sweaters and other times shorts. We recommend packing a wide array of clothing suited for differing temperatures.
