Travelling all the way from Atlanta, Jenna and Keith wed at the top of Sulphur Mountain on the Peak Patio at Banff Gondola. In true mountain fashion, a blizzard made it’s way through Banff, but as luck would have it, the clouds parted and the sun came out minutes before the couple said their “I do’s”, officiated by their close friend. Jenna and Keith shared personal private vows and a first look, and after the beautiful ceremony in the crisp mountain air, the newlyweds celebrated with their nearest and dearest at Sky Bistro.
The reception was a warm, intimate setting, with each table decorated with a beautiful colour palette of rust, blush and cream. The bud vases that adorned each table were designed by Blue Lakes Floral Design, and were accompanied by modern, elegant menu cards designed by the bride. One unique (and hilarious) moment during the cocktail hour, was the traditional Korean tea ceremony – of which one aspect included the groom carrying both the bride and then his mother in law on his back, to demonstrate his strength. The night was filled with dancing and love, with each guest who travelled internationally, celebrated Jenna and Keith. The night ended with a fun sparkler exit at the base of the gondola, with midnight snow falling to cap off the beautiful wedding day.
Kind words from the newlyweds:
"I cannot begin to express how happy we were to have Melissa and her team be a part of our special day! I consider myself an organized planner but Melissa’s attention to detail during the planning process allowed us to fully enjoy our time without any stresses of the day. She truly has a passion and talent for this industry, she took our vision and created such a beautiful space that our guests kept raving about. From the beginning, Melissa was always very responsive, intuitive, and tremendously helpful. She allowed us to send a lot of our decor from the states months before the wedding and helped us find another florist when our original one vendor fell through a month before. The best way I can describe her is that she is your biggest advocate. She will always have a line of communication with you but steps in to handle things when necessary. She goes above and beyond for her clients that you can’t help but feel so grateful for such a kind soul to be a part of your day. Thank you Melissa and Alex!!" - Jenna & Keith
