Events in Montana move at a different pace.
100 guests is a big group. Drives between venues might take longer—but they’ll absolutely take your breath away. It’s a place that invites patience, presence, and deep appreciation for the land.
We love the rhythm. It’s why Montana became our second home after Austin. Different energies, same heart.
We’ve got an exciting event coming up this weekend—stay tuned for a peek behind the scenes!
