20 Years at A Bear and Bison Inn

A lot can change in 20 years. Saplings grow into towering trees and little kids grow into strong adults. A Bear and Bison Inn has certainly changed throughout the years.

Best wedding venue in Canmore

My husband and I had our dream wedding here, which would not have been possible without the amazing Brooke and Lonny!! They are truly the best to work with. We planned with them for a year over email, sent 13 revisions of our wedding document, and countless other ‘Just one more question!’ emails. They were so patient with us and gave us wonderful advice/ tips! They are excellent communicators.
On the day of the wedding, they were nothing short of perfection. Brooke took care of all of the set up and small details, and adapted to some changes on the fly – really took the stress out of the day! I was impressed by her attention to detail. The day went so smoothly! And Lonny – the food was FANTASTIC! Everyone was raving about the food!! Thank you for taking care of us and ensuring we were all so well-fed during our stay! If you are wanting an intimate, beautiful, and stress-free wedding in the Rocky mountains, THIS IS THE PLACE. BOOK BEAR & BISON. Highly recommend!!!
