Amazing all around

Beautiful venue, Amanda is the absolute best coordinator. Very responsive. She takes the ski lodge and turns it into a dreamy wedding venue. She made our day so special and not at all stressful!

Castle Mountain Wedding

Castle was a beautiful venue for our wedding! The views are amazing and scenery unreal. Amanda was very easy to work with and relaxed and confident in her job.
Our only recommendation for Castle to improve their wedding experience for all guests is to get AC installed in the lodge and the hotel. While the lodge was getting very hot by dancing time, Amanda and Castle staff were wonderful in letting our DJ turn speakers and lights outside so we had a unique and wonderful outside dance that we loved!

Highly recommended mountain wedding venue! AMAZING!

My husband and I recently got married at Castle Mountain Resort. After looking through numerous venues in Canmore and Banff area, we realized that we did not have the budget for a mountain wedding until we came upon Castle Mountain Resort. When we came up to view Castle Mountain Resort we instantly loved the mountain view (closer than you think!), large windows and rustic feel in the lodge, and beautiful ceremony site.
Being from Calgary, we think of Canmore and Banff when it comes to mountains and were completely oblivious to how beautiful the scenery was near the Pincher Creek Area, specifically this resort. Not to mention it came with an affordable price!
The reception venue is large and makes great use of the space to have two separate areas that are still open to each other. One side has the dinner tables and the other has the dance floor and cocktail tables. We really appreciated having a kids room and a side room where the buffet was held so that the line didn't spill into the main area and the set-up/clean-up was hidden from view.
The ceremony site was absolutely charming amongst the trees, creek, and mountains. Many of our guests couldn't stop gushing about how beautiful and magical the site was.
Another big win about the weekend was having accommodations and lodging right on the mountain. It made it feel like a special weekend event where all our friends and family could enjoy together without worrying about going from place to place.
Finally, Cole and Kayla and the entire staff went above and beyond to answer any questions and ensure that we had the day that we envisioned. They were flexible, easy-going, and well-organized. The day went extremely smoothly and was (for the most part) stress free! We could not be more thankful to them for everything.
We highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for a mountain-scape wedding with an affordable price that treats you like your spending the big bucks.

A wedding everyone will remember for years

We just got married at Castle Mountain and the experience was straight out of a fairytale. The ceremony site was breathtaking, the guests could not stop talking about the food, and the reception venue was incredible. Amanda and her team were amazing and were available the whole event to lend a hand and answer all of our questions. We will recommend this venue to anyone who asks.

Incredible place to get married in the mountains!

Working with Amanda and her team at Castle Mountain Resort was so seamless and carefree. Our wedding day came together so beautifully and we are so, so thankful we were able to get married in such a beautiful location. The whole staff at Castle Mountain Resort was so great, the food was amazing, the planning process was straightforward, and everything turned out so stunning!
We had many guests tell us that the beautiful drive through the ranchlands was a part of the experience. So even if you're from Calgary, it's not too far away to get married here!

Castle Mountain Wedding

We had the most perfect day thanks to the whole Castle Mountain Resort team. They were so great to work with, especially with all the uncertainty surrounding restrictions and what could possibly happen or not... each step of the way they were flexible and helped us plan the most perfect day. The site was beautiful for our ceremony, definitely plan to do a tour as it's a bit of a walk, especially for older guests. But they were able to assist us to ensure everyone arrived safely and happily. The reception was amazing, the food is absolutely incredible! So many delicious options. It was a wonderful experience leading up to a perfect day!

At Marble I gained an abundance of experience with wedding sales and event management which has really set me up for success here in the Rockies.
