Bow Lake | Peyto Lake

[ OVERVIEW ]

CAD 3,999 + GST

90 minutes • BOW LAKE • ADD-ON to PEYTO LAKE • One epic adventure

If you want the most dramatic, adventure-filled, jaw-dropping PHOTOS & VIDEO in all of Banff… this is the package.

Bow Lake is a not “pretty spot.”
They’re INSANE.
Huge mountains.
Glacier-blue water.
Crisp wind.
Wild, raw beauty.

Your friends will think you flew to Iceland.
Your photos will look like a travel campaign.
And the best part?
It’s EASY.

Why Couples LOVE Bow Lake OR Peyto Lake

Because these spots don’t look real.
Because the colors are unreal.
Because the scale is massive.
Because it feels like you’re getting married inside a fantasy movie.

It’s private.
It’s peaceful.
It’s adventurous — but not hard.

And it gives you two different world-class backdrops in one single day.

This is your “WOW” gallery.

What’s Included

Professional Photographer

You get your own full-time wedding photographer, not a hobby shooter, not a random freelancer.
This is someone who knows how to pose you, guide you, calm your nerves, and make you look amazing even if you “never take good photos.”

You receive 80 high-resolution, fully edited photos delivered in an online gallery in 5 weeks.

Your photos will stop people mid-scroll.
Your friends will say:
“HOW is this real?!”

Cinematic Videographer

Your elopement is captured by a real filmmaker — someone trained to find light, movement, emotion, and sound.

You get a 3–4 minute cinematic wedding film, delivered in 5 weeks, ready for YouTube, Google Drive, and easy sharing.

Your family will cry watching it.
Your friends will message you nonstop.
This is your movie moment.

This is why we include video — your love deserves more than shaky phone clips.

Marriage Officiant

A licensed Alberta officiant leads your ceremony with warmth and heart — professional, properly-dressed, never rushed, never cold, never robotic.

It will feel real, personal, and intimate.
Exactly how elopements should be.

Two legal witnesses included if you need them.

You show up.
You say “I do.”
We handle everything else.

Location Permit

No stress.
No guessing.
No paperwork.

We take care of the Parks Canada location permit so your ceremony is fully compliant and stress-free.

This saves you time, confusion, and that “where do I even start?” feeling.

More variety.
More magic in your final photos and video.

Your day is once in a lifetime - let’s give it more than one beautiful stage.

    • Bow Lake

    • Two Jack Lake
    • Surprise Corner
    • Vermilion Lakes
    • Forest trails + mountain viewpoints

    Every spot gives you a whole new mood and look - perfect for variety in your gallery.
