Some honest wedding budget advice from a group of industry professionals: DIY doesn’t always mean budget-friendly. If you’re thinking about using multiple vendors to bring your dream wedding to life, be sure to price out the required rentals, coordination, and preferred caterers’ packages before going with a DIY venue. And we don’t just say this because our venues are all-inclusive. After planning over 750 weddings (and several of our own), we know how big of a role your budget plays in your wedding planning. Our all-inclusive packages and minimum spends are designed to take the guesswork out of budgeting so you can plan for (almost) the entirety of your wedding in one place. When you book one of our 4 venues, everything from Wedding Coordination and day-of management to food and beverage, set up, and take down is included.#canmore #canmoreweddings #canmoreweddingvenue #yycwedding #yycweddingvenue #2026wedding #2026bride #2026couple #cornerstonetheatre #cornerstoneweddings #albertawedding #weddingbudget #weddingbudgeting #minimumspend #weddingtips #weddingplanningtips #albertaweddingvenue #rockymountainweddings #canmoreweddingvenues #instaweddings #weddinginspo #weddingtips #weddingplanning #bookingsopen #bookingsalert #newvenuealert #bookingsopen #venuebookings #2026weddingbookings
Get your champagne ready, it’s time to book your wedding date. 2026 wedding bookings for all 3 Canmore venues open TOMORROW at 9 a.m. MST sharp. Summer weekends typically sell out by the afternoon, so make sure you’re ready with your date (and a backup date or two). Call us to save the date (403) 609-0004.
With more than 70% of weddings taking place on Saturday, it may feel like there is an unwritten rule about when to host your big day. But, the truth is, there is a lot of value in hosting a weekday wedding (and we’re not just talking about the $6,000 you could save on your minimum spend alone). With less competition for dates, opting for a weekday wedding will give you the pick of the crop for photographers, florists, and cake designers. Plus, your guests will reap the benefits of lower accommodation and travel costs (even with an extra day off work). Don’t miss your chance to save the date.

Unlike other venues, everything you book with us goes towards your minimum spend. This includes your ceremony and reception packages, food and beverage selections (including what your guests spend at the bar), and add-ons like our customizable décor packages or in-house DJ. That means you get to add fun upgrades instead of putting your hard-earned money towards nothing at all (maybe you can afford that grand entrance sparkler moment after all). If you’re reading this, it’s your sign to book a venue tour and start planning the mountain wedding of your dreams.

Why it matters which day of the week you get married…
We’re going to let you in on a little wedding budget secret: by choosing to tie the knot on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, you can significantly lower your overall minimum spend requirements – especially if your heart is set on a summer date.
For example, booking a weekday date could save you up to $6,000 on our Cornerstone Theatre venue.
The best part? Unlike other venues, at Cornerstone Weddings everything you book with us goes towards your minimum spend—from your ceremony and venue rental to food and beverage, our in-house DJ, extra décor packages, and even stationary add-ons.
Before you book with us, we’ll be sure to go over all of the fine print so you know exactly where your budget stands once you save your date.

Cake cutting fee? Never heard of her.
Many venues charge a cake-cutting fee to cover the cost of storing, cutting, and plating your wedding cake—a charge that can range from $2-5 per person, depending on the venue.
We don’t charge a cake-cutting fee (and that doesn’t mean we expect you to serve the cake yourselves).
We’re happy to cut your cake and serve it to your guests as part of our service.
We get it. Planning your dream wedding and sticking to your budget can feel overwhelming. That’s why we offer all-inclusive packages that include everything you need to host your dream wedding (with no hidden fees).
The best part? Everything you book with us goes towards your minimum spend.
Your budget goes further with Cornerstone Weddings.

POV: You booked your dream venue in time.
Booking your venue and vendors as early as possible is the key to ensuring your wedding planning runs smoothly.
After all, it’s not just about securing the venue and date you want—the earlier you book, the more likely you’ll be able to work with the florist, cake designer, and photographer you have your heart set on.
So, how far in advance should you be booking your venue?
We recommend booking with us 12 to 18 months before your desired date for a stress-free planning experience. That said, if you’re goal-oriented and flexible, you could book as late as six months before your date.
Have your eye on one of our stunning venues? We still have 2024 dates available…
Don’t wait another minute to start planning your dream wedding. Get in touch today (link in bio)!

That “I said yes” kinda feeling…
Congratulations to the lucky brides-to-be celebrating a Valentine’s Day engagement.
Although you’re probably still caught up in the sparkle of that beautiful ring on your finger, there really is no time like the present to start thinking about wedding planning—especially if you have a non-negotiable date or location in mind.
If your goal is to be the ultimate organized bride, these items should be at the top of your to-do list:
💌Choosing a Wedding Date: You can’t set a budget or hiring vendors without at least an idea of when you’d like to get married. Consider factors like sentimental dates, weather conditions, and the overall aesthetic you’d like for your wedding.
📊Setting a Budget: Before you go too far down the Pinterest planning rabbit hole, be sure to discuss how much money you’d like to spend with your fiancé and family (if they’re contributing).
🏰Research Venues: Our best advice—pick a venue that can do it all, from organizing your ceremony to bringing your reception vision to life. Because there’s no room for stress on your big day.
That’s why we specialize in all-inclusive wedding packages that include everything from your ceremony and reception space to a team of industry experts who will organize it all for you.
All this with the breathtaking beauty of Alberta’s majestic mountain peaks as the backdrop for your dream wedding. Need we say more?
Let us celebrate your engagement with you—book a virtual or in-person tour of our space and see what we have to offer!
