So, your sweetie has asked for your hand. You said yes!  Now a week later, it’s already time to start thinking of when & where you will celebrate the most important event of your life.  Choosing the right venue is crucial, so why not do it on top of the world?

“A dazzling place I never knew
But when I’m way up here, it’s crystal clear
That now I’m in a whole new world with you”

Yes, we may have just quoted lyrics from a popular Disney movie and although your names may not be Aladdin and Jasmin, the lyrics also apply to the spectacular wedding venue provided by the natural backdrop at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort.

“Unbelievable sights, Indescribable feelings” (okay we’ll stop)..

Located at 7,700 feet on a prominent plateau, the Eagle’s Eye Terrace is surrounded by the mountain peaks of 5 national parks. Boasting stunning 360 degree views of the Selkirks, Purcells and Rocky Mountain ridgelines, your ceremony will take place outside on the terrace surrounded by your closest loved ones. Whisk your guests via the Golden Eagle Express Gondola to 7,700 feet for an unforgettable experience before you tie the knot!  Kicking Horse Mountain Resort is a world class wedding destination where the mountains are a lot closer, the moments are a lot larger and the smiles more than just a little wider. This is Kicking Horse, home to Rocky Mountain vistas, gourmet culinary creations and service second to none. The perfect backdrop for the most important day of your life.

The Eagle’s Eye embodies the true feeling of a romantic mountain destination wedding. Surrounded by 360 degree views of the soaring mountaintops, the floor-to-ceiling windows provide a dramatic background for your wedding reception.

Kicking Horse Mountain Resort’s signature venue features elegant fixtures, birch chairs and a double sided fireplace. The room is elegantly appointed and perfectly themed for a mountain wedding. The Eagle’s Eye requires very little decorating and we will even provide a selection of vases and birch candles for the finishing touches.

Canada’s Most Elevated Restaurant can accommodate 116 guests for a seated reception and up to 120 guests for a cocktail style reception allowing for an intimate ambiance. Included with the venue, our bar and service staff will take care of all the set up and tear down as well as provide linen, dinnerware and glasses so you have more time to make those memories!
