Bridal Falls is a community in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, located east of Rosedale and immediately adjacent to the on-ramps for the Agassiz-Rosedale Bridge, which connects the Trans-Canada Highway at Bridal Falls to Agassiz, on BC Highway 7. Bridal Falls is mostly a highway services community, with several truck stops and restaurants . Its name is derived from Bridal Veil Falls, which was the original rationale for tourist services at the location and at one time included cabins that were promoted as a honeymoon holiday, playing off the bridal theme of the name. The falls were named in the 1800s by the village of Popkum, which in the 1900s used it for a source of hydroelectricity for a chalet and heated swimming pool. Later tourist attractions in the area were a "Flintstones"-themed waterpark and similar family entertainments.
