Montana Wedding Venues

Rustic Montana Wedding Venues are Popular But Not the Only Option

With a wide range of ranches and barns, it is not surprising that rustic weddings are a state favorite. If you are looking for a more upscale experience, Montana contains many boutique hotels, luxurious ski resorts, and booming estates. You can celebrate your newly-minted marriage in historic buildings that once hosted U.S. presidents or in a lakeside gazebo overlooking a lush forest. Outdoor wedding venues in Montana have an epic vibe, surrounded by towering mountains, sprawling meadows, and rushing rivers.

When you’re choosing from among the many unforgettable Montana wedding venues, always keep your wedding budget in mind. Using a budget planner can make it easier to narrow down your venue options.

Tips for Choosing a Montana Wedding Venue

Finding the right venue for your wedding can be tough, but it doesn’t have to be stressful. First, if you have a general idea of how large your wedding guest list will be, you can quickly eliminate some venues from your list. Next, imagine the wedding you hope to have. Only some Montana wedding venues will have the right look and vibe. Once you have a short list, reach out to each venue to find out which are available on your wedding date.

Now that you have a much shorter list of possibilities, reach out to schedule walkthroughs. Finding time for site visits isn’t always easy, but it’s very important that you see each wedding venue you’re considering in person before making your final selection. These walkthroughs (which are usually given by a sales manager or the on-site planner) are also a great time to ask lots of questions about how each venue will handle your Big Day.

You should always ask about wedding packages, how they’re priced, when deposits and the balance are due, if you can choose your own wedding vendors, if on-site catering is available, and each venue’s cancellation policy. You can also ask about decor, catering and cakes, parking, and in the case of outdoor venues, how they’ll handle bad weather.

Once you’ve chosen the perfect wedding venue in Montana, it’s time to tackle all those other to-dos. For help with everything else, whether you’re putting together a wedding seating chart or need help setting up your wedding website, WeddingWire has the tools you need.
