The best venue in the state!

I am still over the moon about my experience with Ashlie and Ryan at White Raven. I booked sight unseen a year + before my wedding and was blown away when I was able to see the venue 2 days before my big day.... as in tears to my eyes blown away. It is such an incredible place, my vision was brought to life and i got to share the most special day of my life with all my friends and family at the best venue I have every been too. the package deal is a must! the cabins/houses on sight are amazing and such a good way to relax after the wedding. I cannot say enough great things about this venue... i am SO glad i took the leap and booked :) Thank you again, Ashlie and Ryan!!!

Dream Wedding

This was our dream wedding venue once we found it. They have two ceremony locations to choose from, but the rock face was perfect for us! They have an indoor/outdoor reception space, rooms to get ready, a great bar setup, and so much beautiful land to explore and take photos.
Ashlie and her husband were great to work with - especially Ashlie! She was practically my day-of-coordinator; she was there to help with anything we needed. They had all of the tables and chairs set up, the necessary linens, she was a point person for my vendors, and helped keep the ceremony running smoothly. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Best venue in Montana!

My new husband and I got married a month ago at the White Raven. Our guests are STILL telling us that it was the most beautiful wedding they have ever been too. Our decorations were light because the natural beauty spoke for itself. If you get the opportunity, you should definitely use the white raven! 10 out of 10 would recommend!!
