Kylie and Ryan’s love story started with an online one-night stand that quickly turned into something much more.

With Kylie already a mom to a son, their family grew sooner than expected...thanks to a little surgery, antibiotics, and birth control that clearly didn’t get the memo! From there, they figured they’d already done things backwards, so they might as well go with the flow… and add another dog to the mix.

These days, Kylie and Ryan love taking the kids and their dogs to Jasper for hikes, adventures, and making memories. Their laid-back, go-with-the-flow personalities, and their constant support for each other’s goals, make them a perfect team.

After everything life has thrown their way, they’re ready to conquer whatever comes next. From here on out, it’s nowhere but up!

Emilie and Brandon first met in high school and, after a school trip, quickly became best friends. Through graduation, post-secondary studies, and the challenges of the pandemic, they remained each other’s constant, supporting, leaning on, and growing closer together.

In 2021, their friendship naturally became something more. From shared adventures and countless memories to moving in together, welcoming two cats, and getting engaged in the summer of 2024, their story has continued to grow in the most beautiful way.

Now, with mountain views ahead and a new beginning on the horizon, Emilie and Brandon are getting ready to say “I do”...celebrating their love for each other, nature, adventure, and everything still to come.

Harlie and Cody’s story began long before their first date...they had known each other for years, growing up in a small town as Cody was Harlie’s best friend’s cousin. Celebrating 15 years together...11 of those years spent engaged!

Their first date? A trip to Wendy’s....proof that the best love stories don’t need a fancy beginning. Today, they’re raising three sons and filling their lives with camping trips, fishing, family adventures, and exploring new places together.

Through 15 years of love, laughter, and countless adventures, Harlie and Cody continue to make memories together, one new destination at a time

Vanessa and Dan’s story began with almost perfect timing...except that it wasn’t. They technically crossed paths at work, but Dan left just a month after Vanessa started. For the next two years, she heard about the kind, amazing guy everyone seemed to love.

When Dan returned, Vanessa found a way to get to know him through game nights, though she wasn’t sure he felt the same. Thankfully, a mutual friend finally gave Dan the hint he needed.

From there, things just clicked. Their first date with Vanessa’s kids at Monster Mini Golf said it all, Dan understood that her kids were the most important part of her life and naturally made space for all of them.

What started with missed timing and missed signals became something steady, loving, and real. Sometimes the best love stories take a little longer to find their way to each other.

Eight years ago, Shareen and Sean met on a dating site. Sean’s profile said he was “Batman,” and Shareen replied, “I may not be Catwoman, but I could be your Storm.”

Since then, they’ve loved being together, making each other smile in the simplest ways, and turning ordinary moments into special memories. They’ve learned and grown together, becoming stronger for one another along the way.

Meeting during a time when they had both recently lost a parent also gave them a deep appreciation for family, commitment, and the importance of supporting each other through life’s challenges.

Eight years on, Shareen and Sean continue to choose each other, find joy in the little things, and make their own extraordinary memories together.

Azekiel and Karla first met at a family friend’s dinner in 2019. They connected on Facebook with the simple intention of becoming friends, until one playful comment from Karla led to a dinner invitation and, eventually, something neither of them expected.

What started as friendship quickly grew into a beautiful connection. Through countless adventures, meals, travels, games, and life’s challenges, they’ve learned to bring out the best in each other. Along the way, they became homeowners, got engaged, and welcomed their beloved fur baby, Primo.

After years filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories, Azekiel and Karla are excited to begin their next chapter together...as husband and wife

Madison and Reily’s story began long before they ever became a couple. They grew up just a few blocks apart and had actually known each other since they were babies. In April 2016, their friendship turned into something more, and after a wildfire unexpectedly brought them together for a week, they’ve been inseparable ever since.

Ten years later, their high-school sweetheart story has grown into a beautiful family with two amazing boys, Ryder and Dixon, two chihuahuas, and a home filled with love, laughter, and plenty of adventure.

From raising their boys and enjoying family time at home to Harley rides, side-by-side adventures, dirt bikes, and late-night pizza, Madison and Reily have built a life that is uniquely theirs.

After 10 years together, their story is a reminder that sometimes the best love stories really do start with high-school sweethearts....and grow into something even more beautiful.

Lena and Khantmin met in 2022 while working together at a bakery, and it didn’t take long for their story to begin. From hikes and paddleboarding to swimming and camping, they’ve continued to fill their relationship with adventure and unforgettable moments.

For their proposal, Khantmin recreated their very first date...a hike they had taken together. It was snowy, cold, and full of shivers, but for Lena, it was worth every single one.

Their love story continues, one adventure at a time.

Joe and Maya’s story began online in 2023 with what was supposed to be a simple coffee date...and quickly grew into a life full of adventure, laughter, and love.

From trail walks and trying new restaurants to spontaneous road trips, they’ve always found joy in exploring life together. In August 2024, their greatest adventure began when they welcomed their beautiful baby girl and discovered the special joy of becoming parents side by side.

In May 2025, Joe proposed at Lake Louise, a place that instantly became even more meaningful as they knew they wanted to return there to say “I do.”

What started with a coffee date has grown into a beautiful family, countless adventures, and a love that continues to grow with every new chapter.

Tanya and Trevor’s story began in a small community where they both grew up, never knowing that their paths would eventually lead them to each other.

In 2023, Tanya hired Trevor’s construction company to renovate her home. Somewhere between the drywall, tile colours, and renovations, a connection began to grow. One late-night phone call turned into nearly six hours of laughter, conversation, and emotion...and they quickly realized they were building something far more meaningful than a home renovation.

In the spring of 2025, Trevor proposed, and later that year, a trip to Banff confirmed their shared love of the mountains and inspired their dream of a mountain wedding.

They’ve also built a home together on the lake, where they enjoy fishing, swimming, time on the water, and making memories with their beautiful children.

From renovating a house to building a life, Tanya and Trevor discovered that the greatest foundation they could create was the one they built together.
