Love Among the Peaks: A september Mountain Wedding Tale at Kicking Horse Resort
MIKE AND JORDAN
As a Golden, BC wedding photographer and videographer, I've had the pleasure of capturing countless beautiful moments in these mountains, but there are some weddings that stand out as truly unforgettable. Jordan and Michael's wedding at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort in Golden, BC, is one of those magical days that I'll cherish forever.
A Moody Mountain Affair
Picture this: the end of September, a moody day in the mountains. The air is crisp, the sky is painted with hues of gray and blue, and love is in the air. Jordan and Michael chose the stunning Kicking Horse Mountain Resort as the backdrop for their special day, surrounded by the majestic peaks of 3 major mountain ranges. The Canadian Rockies, The Selkirks and the Purcell Mountain ranges.
Love, Laughter, and Family
For Jordan and Michael, their wedding was all about creating an atmosphere where everyone could let loose and have a blast. When asked to describe their wedding vibe in three words, they simply said, "We just want everybody to have a good time." And let me tell you, they absolutely nailed it.
The couple was joined by their son and their nearest and dearest friends and family, creating an intimate and joyful celebration. One of the most touching moments of the day was Jordan's first look with her best friends and her father, capturing raw emotion and pure love before she walked down the aisle to meet Michael.
Saying "I Do" with a View
The ceremony itself was nothing short of breathtaking. Jordan and Michael saw each other for the first time as she walked down the aisle, framed by the stunning backdrop of the Rocky Mountain ridgelines. With a scenic gondola ride bringing guests to the top of the world, the terrace at Kicking Horse Resort provided the perfect setting for their vows.
Let the Party Begin
After the "I dos" were said and sealed with a kiss, it was time to party! The reception was a lively affair, filled with laughter, heartfelt speeches, and of course, plenty of dancing. As the sun set behind the mountains, the celebration continued well into the night, with Jordan and Michael surrounded by love and laughter.
Capturing Memories to Last a Lifetime
As a wedding photographer and videographer, my goal is to capture the essence of each couple's love story and create memories that will last a lifetime. Jordan and Michael understood the importance of preserving their special day, which is why they valued wedding videography as a crucial part of their wedding memories.
In their pre-wedding questionnaire, when asked what they hoped to see when rewatching their wedding video in 10 years, they said, "I just want to see Mike and I falling in love all over again." And let me tell you, with the stunning backdrop of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort and the pure joy and love that filled the air that day, their wedding video will undoubtedly be a treasure for years to come.
