Kara M. Married on 06/11/2021Best Venue in Montana
The BEST wedding venue in Montana, and beyond!
As soon as I saw photographs of The White Raven Venue, I immediately knew it was "the one" for our wedding day. We didn't tour any other venue, or even consider another one, because The White Raven was THAT perfect.
It has everything you could dream of - incredible views, immaculate landscaping, modern and classic building structures, water features, and almost everything you would need for a wedding included in a package.
The most incredible part of the wedding package was actually the owners themselves. Ashlie and Ryan were incredible. They have paid attention to every single detail, and have created a system that flows and functions perfectly. They are there from sun up to sun down, taking care of the property, details, and people. Ashlie directed our rehearsal, and made sure things went seamlessly day-of. Ryan was tending to the landscape hours prior to guests arriving, making sure that every blade of grass was perfect and in place for the big day.
This venue is absolutely stunning, the amenities were everything we could have hoped for, and made my wedding dreams come true.
SO many guests have reached out, to tell us how they have never been to a more beautiful wedding. The White Raven surpassed everyone's expectations of a gorgeous Montana wedding.
We also rented both cabins that are available on the grounds. Our wedding party raved about how beautiful it was. Everything just felt so crisp, clean, and luxurious.

Amanda Getting married on 10/21/2023Dream 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!-

Sonya S. Married on 05/29/2022The absolute perfect venue
White Raven was recommended to us by a close friend in Missoula. We got on a call with Ashlie and she was so transparent and collaborative that we knew we could trust what we saw online, and that they would be great to work with for our wedding. We ended up having to push our wedding by 1 year due to COVID-19, which was really stressful, but Ashlie & Ryan made the process simple. They felt like they were on our side during the whole planning process and in the end, our wedding weekend went by without a hitch! The venue is gorgeous and operationally so well set-up that any event will go by smoothly. They've pretty much thought of everything and if they havent, they will sit with you to understand what you need and make sure it happens (or be honest with you if something might not work). Our wedding was a same-sex, Jewish & Indian wedding. It's not common to find queer-affirming vendors who are also so racially safe, but we never had hesitation with Ashlie and Ryan. They helped us execute all of the cultural traditions we had been dreaming of, resulting in an absolutely perfect weekend that made us feel safe, seen, and joyful. I cannot recommend this venue enough for your special day!White Raven Wedding & Event Center's reply:
Sonya and Christie, Thank you both so much for everything!! It was the best experience for me to get to know you through these past few years, and all of it ended in the most fun, loving, and memorable wedding weekend we've had! Wishing you both the best!! -

Ashlie and Ryan are an absolute dream to work with. Their venue is full of class and is a step above many venues in Montana with it's modern, yet rustic feel.
Can't say enough about this Venue. The location is amazing, the views are breathtaking and peaceful. There are 2 different locations for a ceremony and you can't go wrong with your choice. The main building is beautifully decorated and perfect for any event. Ashley & Ryan are amazing to work with. They are involved, helpful and go the extra mile to make sure everything is just right. If you are looking for a Montana wedding, this is the place to have it.
