Stunning Mountain Retreat Wedding
We had an amazing experience with Teha and the team at Mount Norquay as our wedding venue. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Most of our guests came from out of province, so we wanted a venue that had some amazing Alberta Rocky Mountain charm.

MandyThank you, Norquay I can't believe it has already been over a week since we got married at Norquay. Teha, Karty and team, what can I say... having a big wedding was never my dream. I chose to have a big wedding because it was important to my fiance that his family all have the opportunity to come and celebrate with us. All the work you put in - the quick and consistent (but not irritating) communication, the support when it came to our set up and take down (and flexibility on timing for both days), your ability to work with us on personalizing our menu, on helping with transportation needs and all sorts of other questions... you made it feel like it was something I wanted all along. The ceremony and reception at Norquay flew by. It gave us exactly what we needed - a quieter space, away from the stares of tourists, during the busiest season in Banff. Both the ceremony location and Kika's were absolutely beautiful. And, as promised by Teha, we received so many compliments about the food. Most importantly, we had a few guests with very severe allergies - and they were so well taken care of by your team. All this in addition to the fact that you were a super affordable choice. I don't plan on getting married again but if I did, I would be reaching out to Norquay.VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
ColeStunning Mountain Retreat Wedding We had an amazing experience with Teha and the team at Mount Norquay as our wedding venue. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Most of our guests came from out of province, so we wanted a venue that had some amazing Alberta Rocky Mountain charm. Teha worked closely with us to create a custom menu that fit our budget and included several unique touches — a live oyster station, Shaft drink toast, champagne on the lawn before the ceremony, and other special details that made the day feel so personal. The tenderloin and salmon were both outstanding, and we received countless compliments from our guests about the food. The bartenders were efficient, friendly, and kept the line moving all night. The venue setup was also seamless, with both indoor and outdoor spaces available so everything flowed beautifully. When a bit of afternoon rain passed through, Teha and her team quickly coordinated to wipe down all the chairs so we could still have our outdoor ceremony — something that meant a lot to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better team or a more beautiful experience. Highly recommend Mount Norquay for anyone planning a wedding in Banff!VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
JenniferSeptember 2025 Wedding Mount Norquay and Teha helped make our day amazing. Teha was helpful throughout the planning process, providing helpful feedback and options. She was also responsive and was able to accomodate alot of requests including dietary intolerances and decorating decisions. The venue itself looked great on the day with lighting included and decorative curtains added that gave it a special touch. The venue itself is beautiful no matter what as it is in the mountains, but the extra details added to the day. We had some guests arriving quite early prior to the ceremony and were able to provide them with beverages, bathrooms, etc so that they were comfortable. The food was amazing from the hors douvres to the mains, with lots of compliments about the dessert and late night snack. My guests were really impressed with the list of cocktails served at cocktail hour and the servers did a great job ensuring our cups were full of water and wine during dinner. Overall an amazing day and I can't thank them enough, they were even helpful the next day when we came to pick up decorative items.VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
LindsayBeautiful setting for mountain wedding! Mt Norquay was everything we were looking for in a venue - beautiful outdoor setting for the ceremony, warm woodsy space for the reception, professional and truly helpful staff, and delicious food! Teha and her team made sure our day ran smoothly and were a great help leading up to the day recommending additional vendors that have worked in the space in the past. Food was amazing and the dance floor space was perfect - we had lots of compliments from guests on both following the big day. The outdoor patio space was also awesome for dance floor breaks. Thank you for an awesome wedding day!!VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
LyzajoeyThe Perfect Venue! We recently had the pleasure of celebrating our wedding at this venue, and I can't recommend it highly enough! The views are absolutely stunning, providing a beautiful backdrop for any occasion. Teha was a fantastic point of contact throughout the planning process. Her communication was clear and timely, ensuring that all our needs were met seamlessly. The team at the venue was incredibly friendly and attentive, making everyone feel welcome. The highlight of the event was undoubtedly the food—everyone is still raving about it! The prime rib was especially memorable, cooked to perfection and full of flavor. Overall, the experience was top-notch, and I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a remarkable event space. You won't be disappointed!VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
SuzannePerfect venue! Our wedding at Norquay in the Lone Pine room was nothing short of amazing. Teha and the whole team are clearly highly experienced in running weddings, anticipating our needs and accommodating all requests. The service team went above and beyond to keep the evening running smoothly. We received endless compliments on how seamlessly everything ran, thanks to the venue and Norquay team. The lodge provided a beautiful, comfortable space for guests, and the resort was a perfect backdrop for photos. The food was incredible—planning with Teha was super easy and guests RAVED about each course. We could not have been happier with choosing Norquay.VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
MaureenBeautiful Venue Mount Norquay Lodge is a FABULOUS place to host a wedding! The views are beautiful & the staff are professional and super flexible. We had many guests from out of province and they were blown away by the venue. We cannot say enough good things about the food, it was delicious! Our venue coordinator Teha made our planning experience super easy and very low stress - she’s very organized which makes planning & prepping a dream. 10/10 would recommend having your wedding here!VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
LanteTruly a "hidden" gem All the staff was wonderfully helpful before, during and after the wedding, cannot recommend them enough!VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
ZacharyExcellent Experience We worked with Teha and her Mt. Norquay team for our wedding this past summer. Teha was fantastic in regards to quick communication, and flexibility. We were very pleased that Teha did everything she could to accomodate small requests, especially to the menu and made life easy in that regard. The venue was beautifully set up, and her wait staff were kind, and prompt during dinner service. It was also nice that they have a very late closing time, which our guests appreciated. We would very much recommend this venue!VerifiedPosted on Wedding Wire![]()
TylerExceptional staff ! The manager was more than accommodating when our planner forgot to tell them a few details ( like champagne bottles at the head table) he went out of his way to get those bottles and upgraded a bottle to a very nice expensive one. He also went out of his way to get the chefs to make some chicken fingers and french fries for all the kids that were under 6 that attended (they weren't into the fancy food) that our wedding planner also forgot to mention to him that it would be kids meals. End of the day he and his staff for the reception were exceptional! We were absolutely thrilled that the were able to do everything in a quick pinch and we're appreciate it !
