Gord Ouellete told CTV he searched for signs of the couple while his wife stayed with their stranded dogs, which were severely dehydrated.
"My son-in-law noticed this, looked like a yellow bag. ... That's when we discovered the girl, floating about 2 feet below the surface," Ouellete told CTV.
The woman, Kamber Lindenbach, was not wearing a life jacket. And even though her body had been discovered, the authorities were still looking for her fiance, Wayne Stertz.
Police presume Stertz drowned after a thorough search of the lake turned up nothing.
Adding to the tragedy, the couple were getting married later this month.
