A Private Estate Wedding Venue One Hour From Calgary

Carbon Valley Ranch is a private, exclusive-use wedding venue set in a quiet Alberta valley, one hour from Calgary and 2.5 hours from Edmonton. For celebrations of up to 150 guests, the entire property is yours: five acres of manicured grounds, towering trees, and a sparkling pond, all framed by a valley that turns every photo into the one you frame.


The estate has 8 bedrooms sleeping 16, and up to 30 with additional bedding, so your wedding party and closest family are on site from the rehearsal dinner through to breakfast the morning after. On-site RV and tent sites extend that further.

What Couples Say

"My sister-in-law got married here and words cannot describe how incredible it was. Not only was their wedding drop-dead gorgeous, but every single staff member was exceptional. I'm even more excited to get married here myself next year. We'll be the third couple in our family to marry at Carbon Valley Ranch."
