Do you want the magic of Winter captured with Fire and Ice?

We can do that with as much or as little pageantry as you want!

Our “Grand Bison Fire and Ice” elopement package offers an amazing ceremony, set at dusk onsite. See below for details and amazing pictures! Also, be sure to check out our Facebook and Instagram pages for amazing pics and stories!

We also include an amazing Grand Bison Fire and Ice ceremony set up, with all our winter group weddings! (Included with all winter group packages, Late November to early March).

Want to upgrade your elopement package to a Fire and Ice ceremony? Add $450.00 to the cost of your package.

Sounds great, right? But what time to have the ceremony?

First, we suggest a very private “Reveal” or “First look” for just the wedding couple. The ceremony is the reveal for everyone else, just make sure we have your reveal song and we’ll take care of everything from keeping nosy relatives away to setting the best stage for this very special moment. It is our opinion that this is the “best 10 minutes of the whole day”

We then suggest taking off with the photographer for a few hours to capture those cool Canadian Rocky Mountain backdrop photo’s. Taking the wedding party is a fun idea to share the moment. And remember to send the someone with a list of hot beverages from your favorite coffee shop!

The whole day should be planned to capture the full effect of the fire, lanterns and candles in mason jars, A bit of darkness is important!

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!!!
