An Intimate Wedding in Banff, Alberta

  |   By Rachel Cravit

Both Jill and Mike worked as summer students at their university, and just after the first “hello” they knew they had something special—at least Jill did. “I called my mom and told her I had met the man I was going to marry. Two and a half years later he was finally convinced, too,” Jill explains. The two planned an intimate wedding in Banff for 35 guests ornamented with blush pink accents to create a romantic atmosphere. The newlyweds agree that their favourite details were the old (and funny) photos of each guest they used as place cards, “and hearing Mike vow to try and be on time for the rest of our lives,” Jill laughs.
