Palm Springs Destination Wedding Part 1: Haley + Marco

Palm Springs has always been a bucket list destination for us, so when we got the call from Haley and Marco, it was a match made in wedding planning heaven!

Over 150 guests joined the couple in the Palm Springs area for a weekend of celebration. It was important that we designed events reflective of Haley and Marco’s fun-loving personalities. They are social butterflies and love to host their friends – FUN was a priority!

Haley and Marco hosted a “welcome fiesta” on Cinco de Mayo the day prior to the wedding (since it fell on May 5th). The event was held at a private residence in Indian Wells, and was brightly decorated with vibrant colours, florals and pool lanterns. Guests indulged in signature margaritas, tacos and churros, and were serenaded by a Mariachi band. It was the perfect way to kick off the weekend festivities.

This wedding was featured on the front page of Style Me Pretty, and you can check out Part 2 here.

Jasper Park Lodge Wedding Planner: Claudia + Liz

Claudia and Liz’s destination wedding at Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge radiated beauty – both of the scenery and their love for one another. Over 100 of their nearest and dearest travelled from across Canada to celebrate them in late September, an absolutely stunning time of year in the Rocky Mountains.

Their outdoor ceremony was set in front of the glistening turquoise waters of Lac Beauvert on Whistlers Plateau, and they dined and danced in the Golf Clubhouse with both a band and DJ keeping guests on their feet all night long!

Sparrow Lane Wedding Planner: Aakanksha + Arjun

Sparrow Lane’s stunning indoor-outdoor venue set the scene for Aakanksha and Arjun’s two-day wedding festivities in late June. Day one saw two outdoor ceremonies honouring both the bride and groom’s religions – first, a Sikh ceremony, followed by a Hindu ceremony on the scenic forest-enveloped cobblestone patio.

The next day, guests enjoyed cocktails and a gourmet Indian-fusion dinner, followed by a night of toasts and dancing!

The wedding design was adorned with personalized details, most spectacularly, a unique book case seating wall paying tribute to their shared passion for literature. Guests were presented with individualized leather embossed bookmarks indicating their designated tables. Rich hues of emerald green, merlot and gold were paired with soft peach and blush tones, blending regality with romance.

Classic Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Summer Wedding: Bethany + Mike

Jasper, Alberta has been a special place throughout Bethany and Mike’s relationship – they even named their beloved pup after the mountain town! So, of course it was a no-brainer that they decided to get married at Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge.

The glistening teal blue waters of Lake Beauvert provided the perfect backdrop for Bethany and Mike’s classic Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge summer wedding. They exchanged vows on Whistler’s Plateau, with gorgeous garden-inspired florals lining the aisle and altar. The evening celebration was held in the Golf Clubhouse – Tonquin and Spike – where guests dined on long wooden tables adorned with lush tablescapes of cream, peach and soft blush florals and taper candles.

Outdoor Wedding Ceremony Edmonton: Georgia + Joel

Georgia and Joel were married on a balmy summer day across the street from Georgia’s childhood home in the Glenora neighbourhood. Lush greens and gorgeous white florals enhanced the iconic fountain in Alexander Circle Park, creating a beautiful, timeless backdrop for their vows.

Guests enjoyed a delightful post-ceremony gathering before arriving at Royal Glenora Club for the evening events. The reception design featured a modern minimalist aesthetic combined with garden-inspired florals. After a sumptuous dinner and heartfelt speeches, guests enjoyed a night filled with dancing to modern hits and throwbacks courtesy of Good Company DJ. The day’s events ended on a sweet note with the Made by Marcus ice cream cart serving up a late night treat!

Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Wedding Planner: Betty + Harry

Betty and Harry’s love story led them to Jasper, where they celebrated their wedding with an intimate group of their closest family and friends at Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge. They said their I Do’s on the Lakefront Ridge, incorporating both their cultures: a Chinese tea ceremony and a Greek crowning ceremony.

We designed a long table dinner outside the Milligan Manor, which encapsulated the feeling of a beautiful backyard wedding in the mountains. What you don’t see in these beautiful photos was the little rain cloud that moved in just 30 minutes before dinner was to start! Luckily, the JBW and Fairmont teams were there to save the al fresco reception and quickly dry off chairs before guests sat down to enjoy a delicious 5-course meal with wine pairings.

Victoria Wedding Planner: Jahan + Michael (Pt 1)

Jahan and Michael chose to have an intimate destination wedding where Michael grew up on Vancouver Island. The dreamy Brentwood Bay Resort was the perfect fit to give their guests an experiential weekend on the beautiful West Coast.

The wedding events began with a Pithi and Mandvo on the Terrace, where guests were invited to have Mehndi done by a talented Henna Artist. Later that evening, the Sangeet celebration was held on the pool deck. Guests dined on fusion cuisine and danced the night away!

Stay tuned for Part 2 – the Wedding Day

5 Questions to Ask Your Wedding Ceremony Venue

You can visualize yourself walking down the aisle, locking eyes with your partner, saying ‘I Do’ and sharing that first kiss as a married couple. You’re ready to sign on the dotted line to book your wedding ceremony venue! But wait – have you asked all the right questions?!

Not to worry, Team JBW has got your back! Here are 5 important questions to ask when booking your wedding ceremony venue.

1. Are there any décor restrictions? For example, many indoor venues do not allow real flower petals down the aisle. Some churches have restrictions on what (if any) décor can be placed at the altar. It’s important to find out what is and isn’t permitted before booking your wedding ceremony venue.

2. What is included with the venue rental and what am I responsible for renting or supplying? Find out what the venue is providing and what you must bring in yourselves or rent. Some examples of items you may require for your wedding ceremony include: chairs or bench seating, a signing table for the registry, a ceremony arch or arbour, a sound system with a wireless or lapel microphone, and easels for directional signage.

3. When can a rehearsal date and time be confirmed? Some venues will allow you to schedule this upon booking, while others will only confirm your rehearsal a couple weeks in advance. This is important to ask, as it may take some juggling to coordinate the availability of your Officiant, Wedding Party, Wedding Coordinator and rehearsal dinner venue.

4. Is there an indoor or covered backup space in case of inclement weather? Always have a Plan B! If weather is poor, is there an on site backup space you can move the ceremony into? And when must you make the weather call? Often times this can be done on the day of the event, as late as a few hours prior to your ceremony start time, but some venues require 24 hours notice if utilizing the backup space.

5. Is only one wedding held per day? Some ceremony venues book multiple weddings on a single day (we’ve seen as many as 4 different timeslots), while others provide exclusivity to a single wedding couple. It’s important to understand if you are restricted to a specific ceremony time, and whether you have to hustle out of there following your nuptials or if you can stick around to take photos.
