If you’ve ever wondered what it would feel like to be a VIP at New York’s Bridal Fashion Week, then UNVEILED is a must-attend event. On January 10, 2026, you’ll be welcomed by the Fairmont Palliser with a champagne reception, followed by a couture runway in the Crystal Ballroom.
Mingle with the biggest names in Calgary’s wedding planning scene, champagne glass in hand, before witnessing a bridal fashion show that transcends the traditional bridal runway with live music, statement gowns and modern menswear.
Fashion-forward styles for Calgary’s most sophisticated couples
Runway sponsor Blush & Raven will unveil a collection of gowns exclusive to its bespoke bridal boutique, many of which have never been seen on a Canadian runway. “We’re thrilled to be back at the Fairmont, where we can bring everyone up close to bridal gowns from designers that are all the rage in New York and London,” says Blush & Raven owner Liane Knox. “We’ll be showing modern silhouettes and exquisite fabrics, but most importantly, at UNVEILED, we give brides an inside look into future trends.”
Blush & Raven will be joined by Atelier Suiting, a three-time winner of Avenue’s Best Groom and Groomsmen Attire award. Atelier owner and menswear designer Lauren Larsen focuses on style and authenticity.
“Once again, I’ve invited a few of my real grooms to show off their wedding looks,” says Larsen. “They are all so supportive, and they can’t wait to re-live the feeling they had on their wedding day — only this time on a fashion show aisle.”
A highly anticipated event
UNVEILED is known as Calgary’s most social and glamorous wedding show, celebrating all that goes into planning a chic and upscale wedding.
“What makes UNVEILED so unique is that it gives couples and industry experts the chance to mingle in a cocktail party setting. It’s such a magical night under the crystal chandeliers at the Fairmont,” says show producer Lenora Kingcott. “Our tech sponsor, Encore Global, lights up the runway and surrounds our guests with music that carries them away, much like it does at weddings throughout the city.”
Avenue’s 2026 Best Wedding Services issue will be hot off the press, and UNVEILED guests will receive their free copy of the magazine at check-in. “It’s so exciting to see who made the winners list,” says Kingcott. “And this year we’ll be surprising everyone by showcasing a few of the 2026 winners in the Fairmont’s Oval Room. They can’t wait!”
Don’t delay buying your tickets. UNVEILED is a boutique event with some ticket types already sold out. Tickets range from $29 to $69.
“It’s not surprising that they sell out so quickly,” says Kingcott. “UNVEILED tickets are the perfect gift for anyone who has said YES over the holiday season.”
