About
Rocky Mountain Weddings & Events is the longest-established locally-owned wedding planning company in Banff, with boots on the ground throughout the Canadian Rockies. They take a custom approach, tailoring services to your budget, timeline, and vision, whether you're planning a modern heli wedding, an intimate elopement, or a larger celebration. The team handles vendor selection and communication, contract negotiation, and day-of execution with a focus on meaningful human connection over production. They work extensively with out-of-province and international couples, serving as the local connection to preferred venues and vendors.
Services range from full wedding management to month-of coordination and specialized micro-wedding packages. The lead planner is Kristin Nicol, with owner Lindsay Copeland available for larger events.
