July 31 - Aug 2, 2026 • Campbell River, BC

Welcome to our Festival Wedding

We are gathering in Campbell River for the celebration of friendships, family and music, with slow mornings, loud evenings, shared tables, and a few quiet moments where we officially say "I do".

Bring joy

Meet the evening before the wedding day at the bonfire. Arrive by 7 pm or later. Find us at 352 Island Highway.

Pack for garden-party comfort. Bring shoes ready for grass, gravel, and gather under the stars. Think light fabrics, warm layers for cool nights, and effortless style.

Enrich the night and bring a small (!) snack or music or stories or share your favorite beverage. Beer and soft drinks will be provided.

Co-Creation

We are gathering in the heart of Campbell River. The wedding ceremony will begin at 2:30 pm on August 1 at the small beach east of the building. The reception follows right afterwards indoors. The event closes at midnight.

Dress like you would do for your favorite outdoor concert or music festival. Think colors, lofty fabrics, fringe, fun motives, silk, ponchos, fake fur, leather, costumes, mesh, flowers, overalls or anything else creative.

Look forward to DJ Soundstripe!

This is a co-created celebration where every hand helps build our temporary festival. Grab a volunteer slot to help us with this event.
