How to get Married on Public Land at Abraham Lake, Nordegg, Alberta.
Many couples dream of a fairytale wedding in Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, and to most that means either Banff or Jasper. Unsurprisingly, the cost of holding a wedding in a world class international tourist destination can escalate pretty quickly. But, there are other options, and you can have it all! The subject of today’s blog is the Abraham Lake area of David Thompson Country, where the azure blue glacial lake meets stunning waterfalls, all framed by peaks which rival it’s illustrious western neighbour.

Golden or Blue Hour
Some of the best bride & groom portraits are made at golden hour, when the land is wrapped in an incredible warm glow of the setting sun-we HIGHLY recommend making room for this for sure!

We had the pleasure of meeting Aeyra & Thomas at a wedding that we were photographing for friends of theirs. They approached me, told me that they were getting married on September 16th and asked if we were free. I knew that we definitely were because it’s my birthday! We exchanged info and the rest is history!

Warmth and Wonder
We strongly encourage taking advantage of this season by commemorating it with some wonderful memories, whether it is a solo thing, you’d like to share some quality time with your love enjoying something that you love or get the whole family involved…or even a surprise proposal or engagement session. If you’d like to do a campfire session and roast some s’mores or enjoy a cuppa…or just frolic in the foliage-go for it! We. Are. There.

Country wedding in Ardrossan, Alberta
They had plans for a big wedding, but 2020 had other ideas and they down-sized their original plans, deciding to have their big day on the family acreage with just their nearest and dearest, saving the big party for another day.

So it’s been a little while since I last blogged, BUT we have a good excuse!! We have been thrilled (and pleasantly surprised!) to be so busy since we launched our website in May 2021, honestly our website and social just went right on the back-burner.
