Included in this information package you will find a description of our lodge, list of local wedding suppliers, floor plans and terms and conditions associated with having your wedding at Num-Ti-Jah Lodge. Sample menus and wine lists are available on request as most menus are created from scratch to suit each wedding’s individual preferences. When Jimmy Simpson, founder of Num-Ti-Jah Lodge, first came upon Bow Lake in 1898 he described it as one of the most beautiful places he’d ever seen. For more than a century thousands of guests, visitors and artists have agreed with his words. Num-Ti-Jah overlooks one of the most dramatic scenes in the Canadian Rockies. A view from the pebbled shoreline of Bow Lake offers an impressive vista of Crowfoot Mountain rising steeply from the pristine turquoise waters. From here, you can also see Bow Glacier, Crowfoot Glacier, as well as Bow Glacier waterfalls. Surrounded by a dense pine forest, our rustic wooden lodge invites those seeking an extraordinary alpine wedding experience. Ceremony Locations Bow Lake Shore Outdoor The rocky beaches of Bow Lake make for a truly gorgeous setting for your ceremony. With clear views of Crowfoot Mountain, Crowfoot Glacier, Bow Glacier Falls and Mount Jimmy Simpson, this lake shore location provides opportunities for picturesque wedding photos with a breathtaking backdrop. Note: The shores of Bow Lake are not on Lodge property and occupancy requires a permit obtained from Parks Canada. General Information about the National Parks of Canada Lease and License of Occupation Regulations and the National Parks of Canada Business Regulations can be obtained at [email protected], by calling the Parks Canada General Inquires phone line (1-888-773-8888), or by filling in the “Contact US” form at www.pc.gc.ca/eng/agen/courriel-email.aspx. Individual National Park offices can also be contacted, the telephone numbers and e-mail addresses are located on the Parks Canada website at www.pc.gc.ca Ceremony Locations Ram Pasture Outdoor The outdoor Ram Pasture is located just beyond Jimmy Simpson’s original building. This location provides a very peaceful and rustic setting for your ceremony, complimented by a variety of wildflowers, tall pines and impressive mountain vistas in the background. For some couples, this location is favorable as it provides slightly more shelter from weather as well as a slightly elevated view of Bow Lake, the adjacent streams, Bow Falls, Bow Glacier, Crowfoot Mountain and Crowfoot Glacier. Further, this location rests on Num-Ti-Jah Lodge property, allowing slightly greater freedom in regard to duration, decoration, setup and takedown. The Elkhorn Dining Room Indoor Our Elkhorn Dining Room lends a. true rustic ambience to your Mountain Wedding, adorned with historic taxidermy and beautifully painted landscapes. It is a fantastic alternative should the Rocky Mountain weather force your party inside. For more pictures of these locations, please contact our events team who will be happy to provide you with more detailed photographs specific to your needs.

We offer a variety of occupancy options including a choice between a Lake View and Mountain View room. Each room offers its own unique rustic charm. Upon request we will supply you with a list of our rooms and their details in order for you to create your own rooming assignments. Once you return the rooming list to us it then it becomes up to your guests to contact us and provide us with their payment details if they are covering the costs of their own rooms. In order to provide you with the highest level of service we require that the Lodge is reserved exclusively for your wedding. This way we can close off the Lodge and Dining Room to all other potential guests and focus on making your special day truly memorable. All rooms on the day of your wedding will be blocked off and allocated to your guests. The costs for any rooms not occupied or being paid for by a wedding guest will remain the responsibility of the Bride and Groom.
