Is the ceremony indoors or outdoors?
Weather permitting, our ceremony will be held outdoors to take advantage of the gorgeous views. However, the venue also has beautiful indoor accommodations available if the weather decides not to cooperate, so rain or shine, the celebration will go on!
The reception will take place indoors, with access to a lovely outdoor patio area guests can enjoy throughout the evening.
What is the weather like?
August in Bozeman is one of the most beautiful times of the year! Historically, the weather is warm and sunny, with daytime highs typically in the mid-70s to low 80s°F and cooler evenings in the 50s°F, perfect for celebrating under the Montana sky.
That being said, Mother Nature can be unpredictable in the mountains, so we recommend bringing a light layer for later in the evening.

What is the dress code?
Our wedding will be semi-formal. We’d love for everyone to feel comfortable, confident, and ready to celebrate with us!
For the ladies:
Cocktail or midi-length dresses or flowy jumpsuits are perfect. Heels, wedges, or dressy flats all work great.
(P.S. The bridesmaids will be wearing black, but guests are absolutely welcome to wear black too!)
For the gentlemen:
Dress slacks with a button-up shirt, tie optional, or a suit or sport coat if you’d like to dress it up a bit more.
Can I bring my kids?
We love your little ones, but we kindly ask that only those listed on your invitation attend.
We hope you can enjoy the evening as a fun night out to relax, celebrate, and dance with us!
Can I bring a date?
We kindly ask that only those listed on your invitation attend. Thank you for understanding as we keep our celebration intimate!
What time should I arrive to the ceremony?
