Amanda & Sam
Sam and Amanda’s wedding day was a celebration of choice, connection, and the kind of love that feels both effortless and deeply intentional. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Banff in early October, their day blended vibrant fall colour with the quiet beauty of the Canadian Rockies.
The couple exchanged vows at the Tunnel Mountain Reservoir, surrounded by glowing autumn foliage in rich oranges and the striking emerald tones of the lake. The ceremony design embraced the natural setting, with bright, romantic florals by Willow Flower Co. creating dramatic floral columns that framed the altar at the end of the aisle. The bold seasonal palette and thoughtful design details enhanced the landscape while creating an atmosphere that felt intimate, refined, and unforgettable.
Their ceremony reflected the heart of their relationship. Both spoke about choosing one another every day, a theme that carried throughout the celebration. Their vows were personal and heartfelt, filled with humour, devotion, and promises to support one another through every chapter ahead.
Following the ceremony, guests gathered at Buffalo Mountain Lodge for an evening reception that felt warm, elevated, and deeply inviting. The space offered an upscale chalet atmosphere with natural textures, glowing candlelight, and refined mountain elegance. Decor by Mountain Event Rentals complemented the setting with beautiful centrepieces, gold and brass accents, and layered details that brought a sophisticated touch to the cozy cabin environment.
Every moment of the day was beautifully captured by Jules View Photography, preserving the rich colours, emotional exchanges, and sweeping mountain views that defined the celebration. Ringtail Films documented the day on film, while Cake by Darcy created a stunning wedding cake that perfectly complemented the design of the evening. Guests celebrated late into the night with music by Visual Sound Waves, bringing energy and joy to the reception.
The celebration was filled with heartfelt speeches, laughter, and a joyful atmosphere that reflected the couple’s deep connection and the strong community surrounding them. From the vibrant florals to the warm glow of candlelight, every element of the day was thoughtfully curated to reflect both the beauty of the Rockies and the spirit of Sam and Amanda’s relationship.
Their wedding was a perfect balance of bold seasonal colour, mountain romance, and timeless celebration. A day grounded in nature, connection, and the simple yet powerful act of choosing one another.
