The synopsis for the movie reads: “Josie Hughes is a hopeless romantic who believes in the kind of romance in black-and-white movies where the leading lady finds her one true love and gets swept off her feet. She also believes the wedding bouquet always finds its way to the right person when tossed by the bride, as proven time and again at weddings dating back to her childhood. But single Josie ends up with the bouquet at her friend Emma’s wedding instead of their not-single friend Athena and fears she’s wrecked her chances of getting engaged.”


‘My Best Friend’s Bouquet’ Was Filmed in Harrison Hot Springs, Canada & Other Locations in British Columbia

My Best Friend’s Bouquet was filmed in Canada in July, according to IMDb. The movie was also known as Neverbrides during filming.

Harrison Hot Springs & Agassiz Were Filming Locations for the Movie

BC Local News reported that locations for the shooting included Naismith Avenue and Muddy Waters Cafe on Esplanade Avenue in Harrison Hot Springs. Harrison Hot Springs is a town in British Columbia located at the southern end of Harrison Lake. It’s in the Fraser Valley.

The Progress reported that Agassiz was another big filming location for the movie. Agassiz is a small community in the Fraser Valley region of British Columbia.

The Wedding Was Filmed at Fraser River Lodge

The wedding itself was filmed at Fraser River Lodge, and other scenes were filmed in Vancouver, The Progress reported.

Ivan Hayden, an executive producer, told BC Local News that he really enjoyed filming in that region. “I would come back here in a heartbeat,” he said. “…The community has been fantastic and obviously the sights are breathtaking. They’re good, Canadian people. We’re all Canadians working. We know it’s an inconvenience to be filming, taking up parking spots and things, but we really appreciate it.”

The Fraser River Lodge is an adventure resort in British Columbia, according to its website. They host weddings, corporate retreats, outdoor adventures, and more.

So if you’re wanting to experience the scenery of the movie, this would be a great place to visit.

They Took Numerous Precautions for COVID-19

The film had numerous safety measures in place for COVID-19. The crew and cast were located in the same hotel for two weeks while filming, after initially filming in Vancouver, Rose told Media Village.

Rose said: “British Columbia handles COVID very well. Their infection rate is super-low… (Harrison’s) gorgeous, with hot springs and a lake, and mountains. We got to do normal things again, and all had so much fun. A lot of what you see in the movie is we really did all just fall in love with each other. There was one pub in the town, and they gave us the backroom to take over, and as someone entered we’d clap for them.”

The scenery was beautiful for the film.

Casey Manderson shared this behind-the-scenes video from one of the last days of filming. He described the filming location as being in a “quiet, secluded town for 3 weeks.”

Here’s another fun behind-the-scenes photo.
