Find out what matters most to brides at - Bridal Fantasy

Inject your wedding with a hip dose of Amoré! Step back into the
glittering era of GRAND ROMANCE and the decadent style of the
glamorous 40’s and 50’s when lovers, sporting tailored tuxedos and dazzling
gowns, sipped cocktails and swayed to the tunes of crooners like Dean
Martin and Frank Sinatra.
The glamour & style of the Romance Era returns to the Canadian Rockies
A new breed of destination wedding has
emerged in the Canadian Rocky Mountains
bringing with it the perfect marriage
between ADVENTURE and LUXURY. Whether
you are an avid outdoor enthusiast in search
of unspoiled wilderness or an aficionado of
luxe accommodation, it’s finally possible to
have it all in one spectacular wedding
destination!
Endless woodland vistas, towering aspen
forests and emerald glacier lakes provide an
endless variety of UNFORGETTABLE
backdrops for your nuptials. Be swept away
by breath-taking views of soaring peaks and
fairytale forests. Say ‘I do’ in nature’s grandest
cathedral - the Canadian Rocky Mountains -
and once you’ve tied the knot, mingle over
martinis with your guests, celebrate with
champagne fireside, and dine in delectable
4-star style at one of the Fairmont’s trilogy of
historic mountain resorts: The Banff Springs
Hotel, the Jasper Park Lodge, and the
Chateau Lake Louise, all nestled in the heart
of the majestic Rocky Mountains. These icons
of style come well equipped to host the
dream wedding of even the most discerning
connoisseur of ROMANCE having served as
the destination of choice for LEGENDARY
Hollywood beauties and crooners such as
Marilyn Monroe and Bing Crosby since the
1920’s.
Summer or winter, the Canadian Rocky
Mountains offer a dizzying array of ways to
enjoy the great outdoors. Summer months
beckon with glistening glacier-fed rivers and
long, warm, golden evenings. Take a leisurely
canoe ride or a thrilling white-water rafting
trip, soar high above the icefields in a
helicopter or pack a gourmet picnic and
explore the pristine mountain scenery at
your own pace. But don’t restrict yourself to
the summer months…wrap yourself in the
warmth of a luscious white stole, sip hot
chocolate and celebrate your nuptials in
luxurious winter wonderland style. The Rocky
Mountains are the quintessential winter
wedding destination. What could be more
romantic than a wonderland of white in
which to tie the knot? Soar down the ski
slopes together, take a romantic horsedrawn
carriage ride and watch the fluffy
white flakes drift past, or simply snuggle up
and sip hot toddies by the warmth of a
blazing fire. In the immortal words of the
indomitable king of cool, Dean Martin: “Now
that’s Amorè!”
