candid moment of couple smiling and walking with forest pathway and Canmore train bridge in the background

The Gem is a brand new wedding venue in Canmore and we loved getting to see it come to life as it opened it’s doors for the first time this year just in time for Michelle and Nic’s Canmore Wedding. As soon as we walked into The Gem we understood why they chose this venue for their wedding reception, as it was stunning with it’s large lodge window with views out to Mount Rundle.

Michelle and Nic had a lot of friends traveling to Canmore from out of town and wanted to give the opportunity to experience the Alberta Rockies. They lucked out with the nicest weather for their Jewish Wedding Ceremony on Tunnel Mountain, and those mountain views never fail to impress.

We saw a lot of friendship and love between Michelle and Nic all throughout the day. We admire how they they understood and supported each other and we loved hearing all their Taylor Swift references throughout their thank you speech. It makes us so happy to be a part of these really great weddings and we wish these two so many years of happiness together. Here is a little peek into their day!
