The Sheraton Cavalier Calgary

A woman’s wedding is one of the most special days in her life. From the time she was a little girl, the bride-to-be has put in endless hours planning this special day.  After all, she is the princess of the day! One of the first things that needs to be done in the planning process is choosing the perfect venue.  Should it be inside or outside?  Will the ceremony be at the same location?  Will it be formal, informal and what is the budget?   There are so many factors that go into finding the perfect venue but once you decide on all these things and narrow down a list, there are many things to compare.  Pricing, parking, capacity, available catering, flexibility and the friendliness of the point of contact at the venue, all play large roles in which venue to choose.

The Sheraton Cavalier stands out when thinking of an ideal venue.  Overlooking downtown Calgary and the Rocky Mountains, there is a beautiful view from the newly renovated suite for the bride and groom.  The Sheraton Calvalier have amazing, caring staff that ensure the wedding day features the urban sophistication and warm hospitality that Calgarians embrace.  The hotel has recently been refreshed and renovated providing an even more welcoming and inviting atmosphere.  To ease the stress of planning a wedding and to ensure you relax and enjoy your day, the Sheraton Cavalier provides a dedicated wedding specialist who will work with you through every important aspect of your wedding.  They offer wedding package with all the familiar and necessary details for the wedding but are also more than flexible in working with you to make sure all your wants and desires are met with custom packages.   This is certainly a wedding venue worth checking out!
