2 3 HELPFUL HINTS TO MAKE YOUR WEDDING A SUCCESS IN THE CANADIAN ROCKIES
The weather here is known for its drastic, unpredictable changes. It is recommended to have a back up plan in the event of snow or rain if you are planning to hold your ceremony outdoors. Please speak with your meeting and event planner directly to discuss options in case of inclement weather.
*For weddings with a lot of décor and logistics, it is strongly recommended that you hire a planner/day of coordinator.
You are welcome to hold your ceremony in the same room as your reception / dinner. After the ceremony we ask that your guests depart the room in order for our staff to successfully complete the room set-up and keep the dinner running on time. Two and a half hours are required to change the room from ceremony to reception style set-up.
Your function room will be set-up with the appropriate tables, chairs, linens (white) and settings. The lodge is very unique in the aspect that decorations are not needed. Simple flowers and candlelight are all that you need to enhance the atmosphere. All rooms are tastefully decorated and offer natural lighting, art or other decorative wall hangings.
For cocktail receptions longer than 1 hour, food will need to be served if there is a host bar.
Upon booking, the meeting and event planner has various names of photographers, DJs, florists, etc. to help you get on your way. The bride and groom are responsible for the booking of these services. Please note Cilantro on the Lake is the only location we are able to accommodate Bands and DJ’s, unless you choose to Rent Your Own Island option.
After helping you select the room that is suitable for your special day, the meeting and events team will assist you with your menu and wine selections.
