Shawn Sent on 08/06/2026Elope in Banff are the best!
Christianne and the Elope in Banff team are absolutely incredible! We are from FL and have never visited Banff, and were hesitant about planning a wedding with 20+ people in a place we knew very little about. Very quickly, we realized we were in excellent hands and everything about our wedding day was perfect. We truly felt like we showed up for a vacation and never had any of the wedding stress. The vendors that Elope in Banff partners with are the best of the best in Banff. If we had to do it all over again, we wouldn't change a thing. From the ceremony, to the photos, and the beautiful reception dinner set-up, everything exceeded our expectations. Thank you again to the whole team!Elope In Banff's reply:
Hi Shawn and Lauren!
Thank you so much for the generous and awesome review! It really makes our day knowing that you felt cared for, and relaxed! You two, and your families, were just lovely and we are so happy that your Canadian adventure was amazing. Thanks again!!
Lots of Love,
Christianne, Simon, Bryan and Team

Amazing experience
We truly don’t have enough words to express how grateful we are to Elope in Banff for making our wedding day absolutely amazing!❤️
Christianne is the absolute best planner and Caitlin is the absolute best coordinator and day of “maid of honor!”
From the very beginning, Christianne was always responsive, so super kind, professional, genuine, and incredibly thoughtful. She always anticipated our needs, thought of every little detail, and made the entire process feel effortless. We had many questions and are not from the area, but working with Christianne, we always felt like we were in the best hands and received expert advice.
Our wedding day was our like a dream come true. Even though we chose to have a private ceremony with just the two of us, we felt like we were in the company of great friends. Caitlin, Bryan, Michael and Rob are the most down to earth, truly incredible people to be around. Everything was handled so beautifully and truly were able to just be present in every moment.
This team are some of the kindest, warmest, and most wonderful people we have ever had the pleasure of working with, and we feel so lucky that we were part of such an important day in of our lives.
Our wedding in Banff will forever be one of our most beautiful memories, and Elope in Banff helped make it everything we had dreamed of! We will be forever grateful. ❤️
If you are considering eloping in Banff, you will literally be in the best hands with this team! -

If you're planning to elope or have a microwedding in Banff, this is hands down the team you want by your side.
Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and words cannot express the gratitude I have for the Elope In Banff team for helping us make that happen.
We were planning from out of the country and the first time we spoke with Christianne we knew we wanted EIB to help us plan our day. She is incredibly kind and supportive and knowledgeable and delivered the best experience helping us determine what we wanted and needed. Chris not only planned us the most amazing day, she made the process fun and engaging and gave us the ability to just enjoy it all.
Our coordinator and photographer were also just phenomenal. For context, I'm generally shy and awkward and reserved in new situations and with people I don't know. Caitlin and Bryan are the duo that has your back. She has a big beautiful personality that makes you feel like you're best friends. From the start, she made me so comfortable I forgot the word "anxiety" existed. Every aspect of the day felt smooth and seamless with her there. And Bryan - the photos speak for themselves. AMAZING! He was so fun and made us feel comfortable to just being ourselves. Even other people commented on his energy, saying that he seemed to be having fun himself, and that made the whole event feel like even more of a celebration.
I could keep going, but you get the gist :) -

Excellent experience at Peyto Lake
Our experience with Elope in Banff was everything we hoped for and more.
We first connected with Christianne, who was friendly and organized. She answered questions clearly and promptly.
The day before our wedding, we met our coordinator Cassidy. She was friendly and professional. Getting our license and talking logistics the day before went smoothly. She even took us on a drive tour of Banff and we looked for wildlife!
The day of, Cassidy and Bryan showed up to our hotel full of positivity and energy. They got right to work. They delivered our dress and suit steamed and helped us get ready. We never had to check the time or worry about the schedule, they handled everything.
When we arrived, our officiant Rob was very kind. We went to the lookout at Peyto Lake and had the ceremony. Everything went perfect. Bryan took fantastic photos and Cassidy worked hard at positioning my veil, getting us water and providing guidance for poses.
We loved our day. It went perfectly and we feel as though we made friends with the people who were involved. Couldn’t recommend Elope in Banff enough! -

Julie Sent on 29/09/2026Expectations exceeded!
From the first phone call with Christianne, we knew choosing Elope in Banff was a great decision. She was always extremely responsive to the questions we had along the way, and she made us feel comfortable coming from a distance that everything would be perfect, which it absolutely was!
The entire team made us feel so comfortable and excited throughout the entire week. Thank you to Cassidy for preparing us for our wedding day and showing us some of the most picturesque places in Banff for our photos. We had such a fun time taking pictures with Caitlin and Bryan, and Rob, our officiant, gave us such a moving and intimate ceremony.
Ryan and I are so grateful for the way they took everything off our hands and provided us with memories that will last forever. -

Perfect Wedding Elopement with Immediate Family
From our first email correspondence/ phone call with Christianne, we could immediately tell how knowledgeable, organized, and detail oriented she was. As two fairly type A people, having someone who exceeds our expectations time and time again is a rare find. The entire process from choosing a package, to all the prep leading up to the wedding day, was seamless. Christianne has many systems in place that iron out all of the necessary details. The custom itinerary we were presented with was super helpful and allowed us to keep our guests informed. Christianne’s warm yet direct demeanor is exactly what you want in a planner. She always responded in depth to our questions in a timely manner and made us feel like we were a priority (even among juggling all her other clients).
Our coordinator, Cassidy, was fantastic. The day before the wedding she spent time showing us different potential photography locations, went to look at the bouquet at the floral shop, and finished the marriage license paperwork. Cassidy was extremely organized and walked us through how things would go for the ceremony and had us do some practice at the ceremony site so we felt comfortable.
The day of the wedding Cassidy had everything under control. It was nice knowing she was on the ball and all the little details from holding onto the rings in her fanny pack, who’s handing the rings to the dads and when, the group photography combinations, to directing people where to stand. She really allowed us to relax knowing she was managing it all. During photos she graciously helped me take on and off my shoes, moved the train up and down, made sure the necklace was taped in place, and made sure the strapless dress was centered and positioned correctly. She went above and beyond to make us feel as comfortable as possible and we’re really grateful for everything that she did to make our day as enjoyable as it was. She’s an extremely kind, intelligent, and organized person, who we immediately felt comfortable with and is exactly who you want on your team on your wedding day.
Simon, our photographer, is extremely talented. He made navigating lighting, different terrain, and guiding us on posing look so easy. He’s a true pro. He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera the whole time and he’s extremely creative when it comes to visualizing how the surroundings can make an incredible photo. On top of being a fantastic photographer, he’s a very down to earth and personable person. Having only known him for a few hours, we felt extremely comfortable with him and the anxiety of not knowing how to pose or what to do went out the window.
Twyla, our officiant, has a warm presence and you can feel she genuinely cares about the promises being made. She made our ceremony memorable with her wise words and we’re thankful for her guidance to start this next chapter.
Steph, our hair and makeup artist, was very experienced and everyone was happy with how their hair turned out. It was nerve wracking not having done a trial, but the level of expertise with updos and makeup is definitely there and the results showed.
The florals by Mountaintop Florals were gorgeous. Being able to see their vision the day before and have input into how it’ll look really made it feel like it was our own.
All of the vendors were fantastic and it’s clear Christianne has built a tight knit community of amazing people.
We could go on for many more paragraphs about how great the EB team is, but in summation, we’re extremely happy with our choice to trust the EB team with our wedding. All of our guests were impressed with how organized things were and everyone had a great time. Our photos are legendary and we’re so grateful to have been welcomed to the Canadian Rockies with such love and support. -

Absolutely Magical
From the very beginning, choosing this company was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we truly could not have imagined a more perfect experience.
Christianne, Caitlin and Bryan were absolutely incredible. They made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and cared for every step of the way. What stood out most was how genuine they were. It felt like we were spending the day with friends, while still having such an intimate and meaningful experience focused on the two of us.
Their attention to detail, kindness, and professionalism made all the difference. They were thoughtful, supportive, and went above and beyond to ensure not only that we had an amazing day, but that our family felt included and cared for as well.
Our wedding day was everything we hoped it would be and more. The entire experience felt seamless, stress-free, and truly magical. We will cherish these memories for the rest of our lives.
We cannot recommend this company highly enough. If you’re considering booking with them, do it. It was one of the best decisions we made, and we are so grateful for the unforgettable experience they created for us.
Thank you for making our day so special.
Leah & Brayden ❤️ -

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Elope in Banff! From the very beginning of the planning process right through to our wedding day, the entire experience was amazing and made everything feel so easy and stress-free.
A huge thank you to Christianne for all of her help with the booking, planning and involvement leading up to our wedding. Having someone there to answer our questions, organize all the details and help bring everything together made planning a wedding away from home so much easier.
We also want to give a very special shoutout to Mai, our onsite planner. Having her there on our wedding day allowed us to simply enjoy the moment without worrying about all the little details. Everything came together so beautifully, and we are so grateful for everything she did to help make our day run smoothly.
And of course, a huge thank you to Simon, our photographer! He was absolutely wonderful to work with and made us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. He captured such an important day in our lives, and we are so thankful to have those memories to look back on forever.
Our wedding day was everything we hoped it would be and more. Getting married surrounded by the mountains was an absolute dream, and we were able to truly be present and enjoy our day because we knew everything was being taken care of.
Thank you Christianne, Mai, Simon and the entire Elope in Banff team for helping make our wedding day so incredibly special. We will forever be grateful and would absolutely recommend Elope in Banff to anyone dreaming of a beautiful and stress-free mountain wedding! -

Larissa Sent on 14/09/2026HIGHLY recommend Elope in Banff - amazing experience
We had our wedding on September 12 and it was such a magical and amazing experience we will forever cherish. This is 100% because of the Elope in Banff team - I cannot recommend their services enough. They are all so professional, communicative, warm, friendly, accommodating and organized. You will not be stressed at all throughout the wedding planning experience nor the actual wedding day. I had full trust in the Elope in Banff team and that trust was definitely proven to not be misplaced. All of our guests and our family were also so impressed by everything!
I started planning our wedding around a year ago. I contacted around 15 different planners and venues in the Canmore/Banff area. Christianne, with Elope in Banff, was the first and only person to return my query via a telephone call. It is this personal touch that was present the entire planning process which makes Elope in Banff truly stand out. After our initial call I shared MANY e-mails with Christianne/Caitlin (sorry for my indecisiveness LOL!) and each e-mail was responded to so quickly and there were never any unanswered questions. I am a naturally an overthinker but truly NEVER felt stressed at any point while working with Elope in Banff. Everything was handled perfectly and the process truly was seamless.
Mai and Simon were our day of wedding coordinator and our photographer. Mai was so on top of everything and truly thought of every last detail. She was also so charismatic and we loved hearing all about her local knowledge of the Canmore/Banff area. Simon was so warm and funny, he made us feel very comfortable behind the camera (despite both of us not being so comfortable with photos before the photography session). I will let the gorgeous photos speak for themselves. We will treasure these memories of our day forever!
Again, we highly recommend booking your elopement or micro-wedding with Elope in Banff. Not a single detail was overlooked, and we even had our dog Molly join us for photos + the ceremony (Mai even brought one of Molly's favorite snacks - baby carrots LOL). We truly had the perfect wedding of our dreams and Elope in Banff was largely the reason for it!
With lots of love,
Larissa and Ian -

Kiki Sent on 12/09/2026Best day of our lives
I cannot recommend Elope in Banff and specifically Christianne, Cassidy, Rob and Kalla enough. Christianne matched us with the perfect officiant and photographer for us and immediately got our unconventional vibe. She was professional, accommodating and incredible at communicating. Cassidy was kind, warm and welcoming who could not do enough for us on the day itself, she had a great sense of humour, was a pleasure to hang out and plan with and gave us brilliant recommendations for the rest of our trip. Rob was the perfect officiant who mixed in nature into our ceremony and even incorporated the rainy day to make a poignant and relevant point! Kalla was brilliant, able to direct the two of us who started out so awkward in front of the camera and helped us relax, try different fun things (like eating our wedding cake in our jacuzzi fully clothed!) and have a blast. These guys were an epic team who pulled together the best day of our life, we are so grateful to have met them and have been in their safe, fun curated hands. -
