Farah and Albert’s mountain helicopter elopement was a day of adventure, beauty, and unexpected weather. From mammoth storms with high winds to calm blue skies, their journey through iconic locations like Lake Louise, Banff, Canmore, and even the majestic Moraine Lake, showcased the ever-changing charm of the Rockies as we travelled through them.
The importance of professional preparation cannot be overstated, and Farah’s stunning look was crafted by Something Borrowed Beauty, whose expertise ensured her hair and makeup remained flawless throughout the dynamic conditions. A skilled hair and makeup artist is essential for elopements, especially in the mountains, where weather can shift dramatically, and natural light demands precision.
Timing and safety were paramount, and the day’s seamless timeline was expertly designed by Geoff Wilkings Photography, based in Calgary. With Martha’s Heli Weddings and Alpine Helicopter, they reached remote and awe-inspiring locations, creating unforgettable memories. Vibrant florals by Willow Flowers added a touch of elegance, while the day’s magic was captured on film by Twisted Films. Farah and Albert’s adventure was more than a celebration—it was a journey that highlighted the wild beauty and romance of the Canadian Rockies that concluded at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise.
