Garden Wedding at Fairmont Hotel Macdonald: Avery + James
Avery and James celebrated their summer wedding at Edmonton’s Castle in the River Valley, the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald. Over 200 guests joined to celebrate Avery and James, as they exchanged vows on the Empire Terrace under a lush, English garden inspired floral arch and sunny blue skies. An ice cream cart kept guests cool while the couple took photos with their Wedding Party throughout the afternoon.
The reception was held inside the Empire Ballroom, where a palette of subdued peaches, blush and dusty blue perfectly accented the traditional Fairmont aesethetic. After a delicious meal, guests enjoyed dancing the night away.

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.

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.

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.

Tent Wedding Edmonton: Madeline + Filip
Madeline and Filip’s 2-day wedding was one we’ll never forget…for several reasons! Usually when we’re a few weeks out from a wedding, all the plans are well laid and we are simply confirming final details and buttoning up logistics. Unexpectedly, Maddi and Fil’s reception venue closed down just 3 weeks before their big day, and we were faced with the daunting task of finding a new location and moving their event.
Not only were most venues already booked for the popular September weekend, but Maddi and Fil didn’t want to settle for a cookie cutter ballroom. With only a couple weeks to go, we pivoted to build them a custom tented venue on the WELCA grounds located in central Edmonton.
The wedding could not have come together more beautifully, with our incredible vendor team working hard alongside us to adjust plans. Maddi and Fil had a beautiful evening ceremony at The Hive on Friday, and arrived to their cocktail hour Saturday evening in the same 1969 Cadillac convertible that Maddi’s parents drove on their wedding day! See more of this incredible wedding weekend in the Fall / Winter 2023 issue of Rocky Mountain Bride Canada.

Empire Ballroom Wedding Edmonton: Goong + Gary
After riding the wild wave that was the pandemic with Goong and Gary, we were so thrilled to help them finally celebrate with their loved ones in July 2022. With Goong’s family coming to Edmonton all the way from Thailand, it was important that we rescheduled (twice!) in order for travel to be easier.
Like all good things, G+G’s wedding day was well worth the wait. We held their early afternoon ceremony in the Wedgwood Room, and transitioned guests to an evening celebration in the grand Empire Ballroom at Fairmont Hotel Macdonald. Enjoy this glimpse of their beautiful day.

Intimate Fairmont Hotel Macdonald Wedding: Jessica + Jonathan
Jessica and Jonathan wanted a stress-free planning experience, so they hired us for Full Service planning, design and coordination nearly 2.5 years before their wedding date. Little did they know, that decision would turn out to be incredibly wise, as they completely avoided the pandemic event restrictions and rescheduling headaches by planning for a July 2022 wedding!
Their intimate Hotel Macdonald wedding featured some personal touches to reflect their interests and relationship, including customized keepsake bookmarks for their guests and stacks of novels from their own collection displayed on the tables; blue and white salad plates as a nod to Jessica’s Portuguese heritage; and protea flowers used in their ceremony arch to pay homage to Jonathan’s South African roots.
