If you’re looking for a rustic and timeless look for your wedding, look no further than Diamond in the Rough. As a wedding photographer, I have shot at many venues across Alberta, and few stand out as much as Diamond in the Rough. This is one of my favourite wedding venues near Calgary.

Why it’s on my list of Top Wedding Venues Calgary

The cozy log cabin makes for a beautiful spot to do your hair and makeup, take detail photos, have your first look, and even stay overnight. One of the best parts of going outside Calgary, is you get the space for cabins like this.

You could even come back in the evening for some fun photos 😉

The reception hall has a great open field next to it so you can get your breath of fresh air in the evening, and all your guests can enjoy the quiet night air in those moments between the lively dance floor. It is a rare find among wedding venues near Calgary.
