“Moraine Lake is one of the most iconic Canadian lakes. It’s views are incredible, and the very short hike from the packed parking lot equals big pay offs. This glacial fed lake gets it’s iconic blue color from light refracted off rock flour constantly being deposited into the lake. This color, mixed with stunning views of the Valley of Ten peaks makes this the most ideal place for engagement photos in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. The trail along the lake provides beautiful hide away spots to create private woodsy images, while the rock pile at the end of the lake is filled with driftwood and enough boulders to reach amazing views in mere minutes. Take some time to enjoy the shore, explore the dock, rent a canoe, or hike the entire Larch Valley trail for the ultimate mountain experience.” –Wild North Photo and Film

How did you find your photographer?

We found them by researching photographers online and loved the style!

What are you DIY-ing for your wedding?

I am a huge DIY girl so basically everything! I literally ordered everything that I could myself just so I could create that perfect wedding image I always dreamed of. From centerpieces to backdrops and flower arrangements to makeup, I am doing it all!

What are you looking forward to the most?

Walking down the aisle! I picture the opening of the chapel doors to my new beginning, the sound of Andre Rieu playing on the violins in the background and me starring into Justin’s eyes as I walk down the aisle to say I Do! -Lonnie, the Bride
