Elope In Banff

Such a wonderful experience and had a very fun day with them! We planned to get married outside and when we got to the venue it started pouring rain! They were very quick to fix the problem and get us to our indoor venue and get set up quickly so not to waste any time! They drove us around to a handful of spots we wanted to get
Photos at and got some really cool shots. Made us laugh which helped to make our posed photos more authentic. Would definitely recommend :-)

Words can not explain how awesome this was! Due to some changes, our wedding went from 170+ guests a year away to 15 within a month! Sharon was great to work with. She helped all my visions come true. I didnt get to have my big dream wedding but instead I got to have a small beautiful wedding in a beautiful place! There are so many options for your wedding portraits and the tour for that is fun! (even more so if you dont bring your kids haha). The harpist plays so beautifully! The limo was 100% worth it for all of us! I dont have all my photos back yet (still too early) but what i was given already are so great! Bryan captured such great details of our wedding and worked with us to have our ideas come alive. He's a great photographer to work with! If you can, invest in the videographer! I wasnt going to and im SO GLAD I did. I was SO HAPPY with the hair stylist! She 100% brought my vision alive. My hair looked awesome! (I did not use their makeup artist or florist so cant review that part). Doing a elopement package with Elope In Banff is 100% worth it! It's a experience plus a wedding! Everyone had a great time!

This was such short notice and these guys made it so easy. They were amazing. They shared our tears our laughter they made this day amazing, there wasn't a dull moment. By far the best experience with a week of planning. I was truly impressed.

Dominik & I got married on April 4th 2023, whilst sitting on the plane heading home to the UK I was thinking to myself about how much of a lucky couple we are, to have been wed in beautiful Banff and for it to have been planned by Sharon, Photographed by her husband Malcom and Officiated by Carl. What an incredible trio they are! I first filled in the paperwork on April 21st 2022 and despite the elopement not being for nearly a year Sharon made sure every detail was correct on the form, gave feedback about hotel dates, plans, boutonnières etc. at that point already so we could make any changes necessary, she then continued to stay in touch ensuring we felt at ease with everything going on and the progress of the bookings. As the date got closer and closer Sharon continued the contact and had everything under control, I barely did anything! The day before the ‘Big Day’ Sharon met us in our hotel lobby and took us around Banff for a few hours, guiding us through 5 different locations where we could have our wedding ceremony such as Vermillion Lakes, Tunnel Mountain Meadow and Bow Falls, all the while giving us historical insights and interesting information not only at the destinations themselves but also along the journey so we had a full ‘experience’, the knowledge Sharon holds when it comes to Banff is truly remarkable, it was our second time in Banff and she informed us of things we had no idea about. During this time at the locations she went through the details of the ceremony, what we would say, the order things would go etc. and we had a mini practice run to feel comfortable and confident. Sharon then helped us with our luggage to move in to the Banff Log Cabin that her and Malcolm own (there’s another review for that on Tripadvisor - 5* of course! ☺️), this is when we met Malcolm, who would be our Photographer, he is so fun to be around and has a real enthusiasm for what he does. On the day of our wedding Sharon & Malcolm knocked at the cabin door and had us laughing instantly, taking some snaps before we headed to our chosen location at the Bow Falls where we met the Officiator, Carl, another amazing guy who has such charm and character, he made us feel at ease with the ceremony immediately, added his own unique twist on certain aspects and some little jokes too, we would definitely recommend Carl if he is available. During the entire process Sharon was on hand with her ‘Mary Poppins’ bag full of everything we could possibly require; our ring box, gloves, tissues, paperwork etc., she also acted as coat carrier too, whatever we needed she was on hand ready to provide everything and support us, all the while Malcolm is busy taking pictures, we didn’t even realise he was moving around snapping incredible image after incredible image until such time as the ceremony was over and it was time to move to more of the ‘photo-shoot’ mode. Malcom is such a pro, the way he guided us to get the best pictures, angle, lighting, backdrop… everything, he’s stretching high, crouching low, getting Sharon to help with different bits and pieces… we felt at such ease, there was no pushing us to hurry in to a pose, it was all free-flow and fun. Sharon then drove us to another beautiful location for more pictures in the stunning scenery before kindly offering to drop us off at the Banff Gondola so we could head up to Sulphur Mountain as a newlywed couple. On top of all of this, Sharon had booked pre-wedding and wedding dinners for us so we were treated like royalty all the time and congratulated at every location, this attention to detail is spectacular and elevated our entire experience. We couldn’t fault anything at all, from start to finish everything was perfect, we had ZERO Wedding Day ‘jitters’, nothing at all, because we knew we were in such capable hands. Dominik and I are forever grateful to Sharon and Malcolm, they are amazing at what they do, the passion is obvious but above all they are wonderful people who bring you pure joy, you just want to be around them. We’ve made friends forever. If you are looking to get married in Banff, then look no further: Elope in Banff is THE wedding planning choice.

We visited Canada on holiday and decided to elope whilst there. I have nothing but positive comments on the Elope in Banff team. We spent months before our trip emailing back and forward about the day and they were always so helpful and organised. They took care of everything, and my partner and I had an intimate ceremony that was topped off with beautiful photos. It was the winter wonderland wedding feel that we could never get in Australia. Thank you!

Sharon and her team are simply the best! Every aspect was considered and managed including our chaotic kids :) My wedding day went perfectly, we enjoyed the photo shoot with Malcolm whom was fabulous. I’m the type of person who does all her own planning etc and I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Sharon exceeded in every way possible. I highly recommend Sharon and her team!!

Couldn't recommend Sharon and the team at Elope in Banff highly enough!! We flew from the UK to Elope and could fly stress free knowing Sharon had everything organised.
Having been to Banff previously, we were not sure if we needed the tour of Banff, but this is such a great little treat that we were so pleased to have. You can't beat a local resident as a tour guide!
The day itself was truly magical and we spent hours having fun and laughing together. Sharon was incredibly attentive and was always on hand to help (even when we didn't know we needed help!).

Bryan was our photographer on the day and he really made us feel really comfortable throughout. He suggested some great shots and the sneak peaks that we have received so far are absolutely beautiful!!

We also added videograpgy and are again so pleased with the end result. Not only did Michael get the finished video over to us in a little over a week for a party we were hosting back home, he also happily made a second version on our request that didn't include our private personal vows.

Absolutely everything was perfect, completely stress free and most of all, great fun!

If you are looking to Elope in Banff, look no further! ❤️

Wow!! Was such a magical experience with Sharon & Malcolm! They did an amazing job from start to finish. Remembering every detail to make our elopement so special and memorable. Thank you so much for making our experience so amazing 👏💗

So quick and so easy! No stress! When the wedding was done it was so normal it was like; Did that just happen? Are we married now? Already?! All the people involved were great! We did get what we paid for! It was fantastic! If you want something stress free and want to tie the knot with your betrothed without being overwhelmed please book with Elope in Banff. We chose the simply elope package and it was still amazing! They know what they are doing and made this so easy for us to get married. There’s a reason why they have been doing so well for 20+ years! Both my husband Mark and I thank you again and we recommend your services to anyone getting married. Thanks again!
