Eloping in Banff | Gian and Kyndra’s Dream Wedding at Banff to Moraine Lake
Join us in celebrating Gian and Kyndra’s heartwarming elopement at the breathtaking Moraine Lake in Banff! Originally from the Philippines and now residing in Vancouver, this couple’s story is one of adventure, resilience, and boundless love. Banff had always been their dream wedding destination, and what was supposed to be a simple vacation soon became the start of their beautiful married life.
Their journey began years ago, when Gian and Kyndra first crossed paths as new hires for Citco back in the Philippines. Gian vividly remembers their first encounter, recalling every detail about Kyndra’s style and her presence. What began as casual conversations and shared breaks quickly evolved into a deeper connection, with Gian arriving early just to see her, while Kyndra checked her reflection before walking past his desk. Their friendship blossomed into love, and a year and a half later, Gian asked Kyndra to be his girlfriend, sealing a bond that has only grown stronger over the years.
Fast-forward to the proposal: Gian had meticulously planned every detail, knowing he wanted to pop the question on Kyndra’s birthday during a trip to Kelowna. Although Gian took the reins on planning, Kyndra’s intuition hinted that something special was in store. Originally, he intended to propose at a winery, but nerves and the presence of a bustling crowd led him to improvise. Instead, he found the perfect moment at a serene park by Okanagan Lake, where, with their close friend and photographer Damien capturing the memory, he dropped to one knee. Overwhelmed and in awe, Kyndra could only manage to say “seryoso ba to?” (Are you serious?), a reaction filled with love and excitement that spoke louder than words.
For Gian and Kyndra, one of the things they cherish most in each other is the calm and joyful love that has carried them through life’s highs and lows. Through both celebrations and challenges, they’ve always chosen to let love win, ending each day with gratitude and, often, a shared beer. They describe their relationship as a quiet, fulfilling companionship, a love that grows deeper each day.
Arriving at Moraine Lake for their elopement, they felt a surreal sense of fulfillment as their shared dream came true in Banff’s majestic beauty. Surrounded by turquoise waters and towering peaks, Gian and Kyndra exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony that honored their journey together. With Damien once again behind the camera, capturing each precious moment, their elopement felt like the perfect blend of spontaneity, romance, and the beauty of nature.
This video captures the essence of Gian and Kyndra’s love story, from their early days in the Philippines to their serene elopement in the Rockies. It’s a testament to their deep, enduring love and the dream of saying “I do” in one of the world’s most beautiful places.
