Have you been watching The Bachelorette?  I have been entirely addicted to the series ever since Jillian Harris was announced as one of the single ladies wooing Jason last season.  She’s originally from Alberta {where I live!} and, well, as soon as it was announced that a local girl was going to be on TV, everyone tuned in.  Since she was announced as this season’s Bachelorette she has been dubbed as “Canada’s Sweetheart” and doing us proud.

Last week’s show was more than just entertaining for me {although, it was really entertaining!}; it was thrilling and delightful to watch the Rocky Mountaineer train make its way through the Canadian Rocky Mountains.  There is a certain amount of pride in seeing the grandeur of your home displayed with such beauty on a popular television show.  Those places they stopped are in my backyard and make wonderful venues for weddings!

Emerald Lake Lodge is a remote and quaint resort set delicately on the shore of the lake in the BC wilderness.  The view in every direction is mountains and breath-taking scenery.  The lodge is open year round and is definitely an escape into serenity.  Emerald Lake Lodge would be the perfect setting for your wedding in the mountains, winter or summer.

The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is literally like a castle in the wilderness, it was built on the eastern shore of Lake Louise which is fed by palatial glaciers and is surrounded by mountains.  It is pristine wilderness and there are plenty of activities to imbibe in including hiking, mountain biking, canoeing and world class skiing.  The hotel is first in its class when it comes to service and style.  Should you have your wedding here you will feel like nothing less than royalty.  I love the Chateau and its staff; I posted about my recent stay here.

The Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel has to be one of my favorite places in the world, probably because it is the venue I have visited the most and because it is the crown of the Banff town site.  Banff is a bustling tourist town with utmost charm and incomparable beauty.  The Banff Springs Hotel is an amazing place to have a wedding, the rooms, the terraces, the lawns you have to choose from in which to have your ceremony and reception are seemingly endless.

You will absolutely love having your wedding in any of these locations, you will be thrilled at every turn and your guests will be impressed beyond words.
