Vendor Spotlight :: Get Married in Banff

I'm happy to share with you Get Married in Banff, a fabulous planning company based out of Banff! I first met Angie at Calgary Bridal Fantasy where were we were both exhibiting. Since I met her she has moved from Calgary to the town of Banff to specialize in spectacular Banff weddings! Herself and her partner/husband, Reg, are assisted by a talented team who know Banff inside and out! They are clearly passionate about both weddings and Banff and you can see them glowing in the team photo shoot below! Please visit their website at www.getmarriedinbanff.com to find out more information. All images are courtesy of Julie Williams Photography.

Studio Pictures

Some of my clients get confused when they first come see me, but don't be fooled, we work out of a house! A little over a year ago we moved into a cute semi-bungalow close to Oliver Square and made it the studio for Pinkpolka! I posted some pictures of the house when we moved in, but never did get around to posting some updated shots. I always have interior design projects on the go–whether it's refinishing a vintage sideboard or creating art–the list never seems to end. Saying that, I have to make a point to take more shots of the studio....when I do, I will post more pictures. Enjoy the sneak peek for now!
