British Columbia weddings and elopements are truly epic, boasting some of the world’s most spectacular venues and backdrops. You can tie the knot from mountaintops to the ocean, with waterfalls, lakes, and forests in between. You can exchange vows at wineries, resorts, glamping, gardens, luxury boats, and ballrooms—an endless choice of how and where to celebrate your day.

Special thank you to Erica Miller Photography!

Fly Away With Me 

Looking to reach the highest mountaintops? Luckily, BC can fulfill that wish! Check-in with SKY Helicopters Heli-Weddings or ride high with Sea to Sky Air. We love the ‘two for one’ option where you wed on the beach and celebrate in the mountains or vice versa. Also – mountain flights are a great way to propose!

TIP: We highly recommend having an experienced team help you—seriously, this is not the time for DIY. The pros know where to go, the weather, the timing, and how you should dress. Start with Erica Miller Photography/Young, Hip and Married or Amanda Coldicutt Photography.

Extraordinarily Unique

Are you looking for a signature statement venue? Try restaurants like Brix + Mortar or artistic venues like The Polygon Gallery or The Pipe Shop. Invite culture to your wedding at The Permanent or the Vancouver Art Gallery. Are you a farm wedding couple? You will be thrilled with Mt. Lehman Meadows or Maan Farms. Why not marry at the Bloedel Conservatory or one of the hippest coffee shops? And for Asian history, you cannot beat Dr Sun Yat-Sen Classical Gardens.

Garden Vows

If gardens are where you grow, meander through Bloedel Conservatory, Hycroft Manor, Cecil Green Park House, UBC Botanical Gardens, Harrison Hot Springs Resort, and Stanley Park Pavilion. Pop Up Weddings by West Coast Weddings will be happy to help you find your secret garden!

Ballroom Beauty

Natural beauty and amazing ballrooms go hand in hand in BC. You can trip the light fantastically in your version of a royal wedding AND have waterfront photos taken just steps away. To get started, take a tour around Rosewood Hotel Georgia, Fairmont Pacific Rim, Shangri-La Vancouver, The Sutton Place Hotel, and The Douglas.

Forest + Ocean

Love and adventure await couples in the majestic mountains and coastal waters. Sea to Sky Gondola offers a world-famous view and a suspension bridge experience. Or marry in the rainforest with Peaks and Vows, specializing in adventure weddings, including hot air balloons, yachts, glamping, and seaplanes! We recommend chatting with Young Hip and Married, who seem to know every nook and cranny where newlyweds can celebrate!

Choosing your Vancouver wedding location means having your pick of the most amazing locations in the world. So enjoy every minute spent finding the perfect spot (or two!!) for your special day.
