Weddings
A wedding venue unlike any other in Alberta.
Begin your forever deep in the wilderness of Banff National Park, where soaring alpine peaks and pristine glacial lakes set the stage for an unforgettable celebration.
Hike, bike, or ski to your wedding
Shadow Lake Lodge is perfect for couples who love the outdoors. The 14km trail to our cozy cabins ensures that you are literally miles away from “the real world” and the hustle and bustle of every day life.
Move into your warm, cozy cabin
Shadow Lake Lodge is a rare backcountry wedding venue that blends wild, remote beauty with the comforts you need to celebrate and recuperate. Nothing beats a hot shower and a cozy heated cabin after a day spent in the alpine.
The twelve private, heated cabins can accommodate up to 37 guests including the couple. An exclusive booking of the entire venue makes for a wedding that is private, personal, and intimate. The only uninvited guests may be the local wildlife!
