Adamant Lodge- Revelstoke B.C.

This should be a cardio post coming at you since it takes place in one of the most beautiful places that I have ever been to, but, since we were there for my friend Kristen wedding, and arrived two hours before the wedding started, we did not get any cardio in!

Other than dancing that is!

Wedding dancing.

Beer dancing.

Oh, dancing.

Thank god I had left my camera in the room at that point.  People mid-dance pictures are always mortifying . . . even if you’re not in the picture!

Adamant Lodge is the place that Kristen and Konrad met . . . awhhhhh.  And fitingly, this is where they chose to get married!  At first I debated about being able to go because it was quite a drive from home.  In order to get to the lodge, you have to drive to Revelstoke B.C., and then into the bush, on bush roads for about 2 hours.  It was totally worth it, and I’m so glad that I was able to get my schedule cleared for two days in a row.

After doing the two hour car ride–that should have been a truck ride–into the heart of the Selkirk Mountains in British Columbia, we finally arrived, just in time to get ready for the ceremony . . . and with enough time for me to take these pictures!

The Ceremony

Kristen and Konrad are a great couple!  I was happy to get to witness this next step in their relationship . . . and I was so happy to get to spend a whole WEEKEND WITH MY GIRLS!

This cardio post, is officially a FOOD (Random Jenn-ness) post, as the food that we were served was some of the best, most delicious I have ever had.  We were clearly in the company of a five star chef.   It was amazing.

The appetizer was a simple, refreshing Caprese Salad, with heirloom tomatoes, bocconcini and fresh basil.

For dinner, we had the choice of steak or salmon.  Being the meat lover that I am, I went for the steak and I’m so glad that I did.  It literally melted like butter in my mouth.  Not that I actually know what butter feels like while melting in my mouth.  But, I can imagine!

Christy got the salmon, and she happily let me take a picture of her plate before she indulged.

For dessert, I was eagerly anticipating what a chef of this quality would produce for a wedding cake!  Unfortunately the chef had other plans, and produced a fresh raspberry torte.  Of course it was delicious too!  And pretty 🙂

All in all, it was a great weekend of friends, food, scenery and a great party celebrating two people in love!
