Everything was perfect even during a global pandemic!
Our elopement ended up being during the Covid-19 pandemic. Sharon took every precaution and was absolutely wonderful to work with, incredibly professional, reassuring, and flexible, even after one postponement and a downgrade in guests. The entire planning process was a breeze and every question we had was promptly answered.
Our tour of Banff was amazing and beautiful; Sharon made everything work somehow even though we ended up having to travel in separate vehicles to maintain social distancing! She was able to make our day incredibly special, full of optimism, and was prepared for anything.
Sharon went above and beyond and it’s clear that she absolutely loves what she does and it shows! I’ll be wishing to relive this day over and over for the rest of my life. 10/10 will recommend to everyone!

Absolutely amazing!
Sharon and Malcolm made sure our day was incredible. There was no minor detail left out and they took care of it all. We did the heliwedding and honestly couldn't have imagined a better day. A sneak peak at photos was released so quickly and they are stunning, I can't wait for the rest! (Sneak peak photo attached)
We loved everything about our special day thanks to Elope in Banff and Alpine Peak Photography.
