Canadian Destination Wedding!

Our wedding was gorgeous and perfect, it was everything we could have dreamed of. There were a few hiccups but they were managed well by the staff and we were very pleased. If I had to do it all over again, I would definitely choose Sea to Sky again.

Astonishing!

Beyond the absolutely beautiful venue and fantastic staff, one action stood out.
Jude was leading the way for us. She provided great communication in the lead up to the wedding, but on the day of she (and the whole team) exceeded our expectation.
With an unexpected delay to the Ceremony, Jude rallied her team, created flexibility in the schedule and created the most memorial event of our lives!

The most amazing view you will ever see

When we first got engaged, I wanted a destination wedding and my husband found sea to sky and knew we had to have it. Took me a bit of convincing but once we did our walk through... OMG I am soo glad we picked this place.

They were easy to work with ( all communication was done through their portal so everyone involved could see all). I especially liked that they took all dietary & allergy restrictions so very seriously ( we had a few serious life threating allergies and the kitchen took care of them). They food was next level that we ended up increasing our food budget to reflect just how amazing the food was.

This venue is not a cheap place by all means but I believe you get what you pay for and the views alone paid for themselves. We kept getting compliments from all of our guests just how amazing the venue was. The staff went above and beyond and were just a pleasure to work with.

I cannot recommend this venue enough
