About this vendor
Golden Hour Events creates high touch, luxury wedding experiences for couples who want a celebration that feels intentional, fashion driven, and completely custom to them. Based in Bozeman, Montana, I specialize in tented and destination weddings that turn unforgettable landscapes into deeply personal moments.
My background spans nearly a decade across many areas of the industry including bridal gown sales, floral design, and years of planning. This allows me to merge logistics, aesthetics, and guest experience in a way that feels seamless. I am known for floral forward designs, interactive elements, and a bold, editorial approach that stands out in a market often filled with rustic trends.
What sets me apart is simple. I care deeply. I am not in this industry to book as many weddings as possible. I am here because creating for my clients truly lights me up. I learn your family, your values, your story, and I carry that into every decision we make together.
With me, luxury is not about being stuffy. It is about feeling cared for. It is about trust. It is about designing a day that feels like you.

A wedding planner is there not only for when everything goes according to plan, but also in the event something goes wrong, or is unexpected; on the day of your wedding (and everyt...
hing leading up to the big day) a couple needs to trust that no matter what, the wedding planner will be there to support the couple’s needs and ease any stress for the couple. Kianna and her team at Golden Hour Events perfectly embody this. No matter what happened, Kianna was there to handle and make sure everything was running smoothly, so that as the bride and groom, we could enjoy our special day without the additional stress of the event or day of logistics (Kianna even ran to our hotel room to grab the groom extra contact lenses when his fell out right before the mother-son dance). The ability to relax and enjoy the wedding day because of our trust in the wedding planner provided an immeasurable comfort that is invaluable to the bride and groom. This trust is something that Kianna and her team provided us, and we confidently know they will provide any couple the same on their wedding day. The planning process for a wedding takes months of active and ongoing work, often with difficult decisions, yet fun moments. Having Kianna alongside us from start to finish ensured that the entire process was operating smoothly and effectively – she helped us navigate the unknowns of planning a wedding, tactfully navigated varying family personalities, and celebrated our joy with us. Especially because we were planning our Montana wedding from out of state, it was comforting to know that Kianna could refer us and connect with vendors on the ground. Even when we had changes to the guest list a week before the wedding (causing stress for the bride), Kianna calmly handled the changes, alleviating the bride’s stress.
In addition to gracefully handling and managing the behind-the-scenes for the wedding, Kianna and her team perfectly designed our wedding decor. As a little girl, I always imagined what my wedding would look like and never thought my dream could come true. However, from walking down the aisle at the church, to the first look at the reception room (the culmination of nearly a year of planning), I was able to experience my dream wedding – and I attribute that all to the Golden Hour Events team. Their level of creativity, eye for artistry, elegance, and tastefulness, and attention to detail (right down to the napkins, linens, menus, table numbers, and seating chart) are unmatched. When I opened the doors to the reception ballroom for the first time, I was overcome with so much emotion, as Kianna turned my vision into a reality, while far surpassing my dreams. She transformed an empty ballroom into a beautiful and breathtaking pink wonderland. While the Golden Hour Events team was all around amazing, their unique designs and willingness to go above and beyond for us really stood out as particularly impressive – rather than the same cookie-cutter wedding decor, Kianna constantly was suggesting decor that truly was different and reflected my personal vision. She also tracked down cushions that were the exact size of our chairs when I asked if our chairs could have cushions; she even had her family drive an ice cream cart from Texas to Montana for our dessert ice cream sundae bar.
We are so grateful for the absolutely amazing and gorgeous work the Golden Hour Events team performed for our wedding. If you’re looking for a Montana based wedding planner, we highly recommend Golden Hour Events – they’ll make all your wedding dreams come true and are prepared to handle all the ups and downs of the wedding planning process.
Travis and Nicolena Beck - Montage Big Sky Wedding 5.24.25
We live in Los Angeles and hired Kianna at Golden Hour Events as our full service planner for our September 2024 destination wedding in Big Sky. I am incredibly type A and used to ...
work in the wedding industry so I was a very hands-on bride, which Kianna handled with grace and understanding. Even when my ideas or requests seemed outlandish she approached them with a can-do attitude, always making me feel seen and cared for. She is open to feedback, a great collaborator, and has solid relationships with local vendors and venues. Most of all, she has a huge heart and cares so much about what she does and about creating an experience for couples that is as seamless as possible. After the wedding, we found out about all kinds of little glitches that came up along the way that she managed to handle without us being the wiser (including almost having to helicopter our officiant out of Yellowstone so he didn’t miss our wedding, and sending her dad to a jeweler in Bozeman to replace a bracelet I’d given one of my bridesmaids who immediately lost it and was devastated). She provides a really thoughtful level of service, and the fact that she works alongside her family members means that her staff is just as invested as she is.
Our wedding was not perfect (there’s no such thing!) but looking back, we are so grateful that we were able to let go and be present knowing that Kianna would handle issues as they came up. There’s not a thing we would have done differently and we owe a huge thanks to Kianna for helping us execute the wedding weekend of our dreams.

eautiful, accurate and on budget vision. Kianna was professional and always available to answer questions and problem solve. Her creativity and ability to interpret our ideas was uncanny - she knew what we wanted even before we did! The wedding day couldn't have gone more smoothly or been more beautiful. It is without hesitation that I can recommend Kianna and Golden Hour Events.
