Weddings from €1,639

Overview

A completely striking and outstanding area of beauty nestled within Banff’s endless mountains, this incredible setting creates an unforgettable, breath-taking wedding ceremony.

Hoodoo Lookout is a wonderfully secluded and romantic spot; Say ‘I do’ against a magnificent mountainous backdrop, overlooking snow-capped mountain peaks and spectacular views of rolling valleys… a setting you’re sure to remember for the rest of your life. This inspiring location is one of Banff’s most stunning spots, and suits couples who want to really make a statement on their special day without losing any of the charm or romance of an intimate wedding, accommodating a maximum of twenty people.

For this particular venue, we feature three wonderful wedding packages. Our Classic Wedding offers all the comforts and features to create a smooth and romantic ceremony, such as a personal wedding planner, transfers, a bridal bouquet, grooms buttonhole and sparkling wine for the bride and groom to enjoy back at the hotel. If you upgrade to our Premier package, you’ll be further treated to a professional photographer to capture the utter beauty of this destination, as well as a beautiful wedding cake delivered to your hotel. For an incredibly spectacular and romantic day, we think our Luxury Wedding is the perfect option; featuring professional bridal hair & makeup, a special Ice Fields or Dog Sledding Tour through the marvellous scenery, and champagne for the newlyweds to enjoy in the comfort of your hotel.

Hoodoo Lookout is situated on Tunnel Mountain in Banff, just a short distance from the centre of the city. A short walk along a paved trail will bring you to a few sensational lookout spots and a beautiful grassed area away from the bustle of the town. The walk from the car park is around 10 minutes – the slight incline means this is not suitable for anyone who may have difficulty walking on unstable ground.
