Hailey A. Sent on 10/12/2019Full Montana Experience @ Mountainside Weddings
This venue is what Montana is all about. It is surround by national forestry, water landmarks, and a beautiful barn like building. The owners of Mountainside Weddings are two people who invest their time and emotions into every couple. They are genuine and really want their couples to have the best day.
When my husband and I checked out other venues in the Flathead area, we noticed that they all had a common theme. All of the owners just wanted to collect money and be on their way. It seemed as if we were just another couple and regardless if we booked with them or not, they did not really care.
When we went to check out Mountainside Weddings, the owners were fully invested in our time with them. They made it all about us and were constantly reminding us that it's our day, we make the decisions. They had tons of awesome decorations to borrow and were there assisting the entire wedding day. They shuttled people around, made sure everyone had a drink in their hand, and was always checking in if there was something they could do for us.
The owners of Mountainside Weddings are just amazing people and are so easy to work with. They will forever hold a special place in our hearts!

Beyond Lovely
Our son & new daughter were recently married at this venue. It has a perfectly lovely setting and accommodations that make people feel special. The little details the owners provide are exceptional, and they also showed flexibility and ingenuity dealing with special requests [such as a children's table, deet free bug spray, etc.]. We would highly recommend this spot for any special event. Thank you for making this family wedding extraordinary.Mountainside Weddings's reply:
Gary and Faith thank you both so much. Dave and I had an absolute wonderful time with you guys. I am so ecstatic that you posted a picture of Bob the Turtle. That was an awesome little treat that we got to see him so up close and personal. Thank you for sharing the lovely pictures from Rachel and Aarons amazing day. It could not have been a more perfect day. -

We looked at (nearly) every wedding venue in the state of Montana when searching for the right place to have our wedding. After months of looking and a dozen tours of potential sites, we were getting pretty despondent with our options. Nothing felt right, everything had obnoxious rules that would have hindered our celebration, many had compromised views, and most gave you just a day or even a few hours in which to have the most important celebration of your life before kicking you out to cycle in the next lucky couple. Mountainside Weddings was the only place we found that checked all of the boxes we had, and Dave and Lorraine were an absolute pleasure to work with at every step.
Nestled in the trees near Whitefish, the location includes a beautiful pond, large timber framed pavilion, several great backdrops for the ceremony, a bride’s house, and a “glamping” style tent for the groomsmen. The grounds are stunning with lush greenery, mature trees, rocky outcroppings, and wildflowers everywhere. Mountainside Weddings was flawless and truly extraordinary. “Most beautiful wedding ever” was echoed by our guests over and over, thanks in large part to the amazing setting and facilities that Mountainside Weddings offers.
The attention to detail, flexibility, and obvious care that Dave and Lorraine bring to the table was the proverbial icing on the cake. As new owners of the venue, they had grand visions of things they wanted to change and add when we toured the property in October 2018. They delivered on every promise and more by our wedding in June 2019 which is remarkable! They were wonderful to interact with all throughout the planning process and helped us visualize and execute our dream wedding. From the decor they have available for use, to the rustic farmhouse-style table options, to pristinely cared for grounds, we felt beyond lucky to have discovered such a full-service venue. We were able to stay onsite in their stunning new bride’s house and fully enjoy the weekend due to the tireless efforts of Dave and Lorraine. From setting up our rehearsal dinner and wedding, to tearing down our Sunday morning brunch, they bent over backwards to make our weekend unforgettable and allow us and our families to relax and enjoy the experience. We truly can’t thank them enough for the hospitality, care, and professionalism they showed. If we had to do it all over again, we wouldn’t look anywhere else!

Lindsay and Ken....what an amazing multi day event you guys had! Dave and I had the best time with your family. So much fun energy from everyone. There were some absolute beautiful and unique moments to your special day and we were honored to be part of it. I am so glad you were able to spend several days here to truly enjoy the scenery and serenity of this place. Dave and I are so blessed to wake up everyday and call this home. We enjoy nothing more than sharing all of this with couples like you. Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your wedding weekend with us. -

My husband and I got married at Mountainside in June of 2019 and it was an AMAZING experience. Lorraine and Dave went above and beyond to make it such a memorable weekend for us and our guests. They’ve done a great job of enhancing the property’s natural beauty and creating a peaceful atmosphere.
From my initial phone call with Lorraine I could tell how detail oriented she is, organized, and how passionate she is about her job which held true throughout the entire 9 months of working with her. She is very responsive and has such a beautiful vision for the property.
Booking our wedding at Mountainside alleviated so much stress for us. The venue provided tables, chairs, linens, decorations, ceremony benches, serve ware, a bridal house, grooms area, etc. so I wasn’t having to outsource to find these items or worry about finding a place to get ready off site.
When selecting our venue, one of our main criteria was that all our guests and vendors would be comfortable. Lorraine and Dave built a brand new bridal house, added a parking lot, restrooms, ran a golf cart shuttle, and made updates to the property to make sure that it was accommodating for everyone. When it cooled down they started up a bon fire and had stylish heaters for under the pavilion. The venue was perfect for all 200 guests.
Another reason why I loved this venue is that we had access to it all weekend. The night before the wedding we hosted a large rehearsal dinner so we could include all of our extended families that traveled from out of town. We were very grateful to have a space that we could all be together.
On the day of the wedding, Lorraine and Dave handled all of the setup. I was so AMAZED with how beautiful everything looked (see pictures below). The morning of the wedding they also spoiled us with a delicious charcuterie board and fun drinks. Because of Lorraine and Dave, we were able to relax and truly enjoy every minute of our wedding weekend.
I could go on and on …. With all of that said I would highly recommend booking your wedding at Mountainside. You will be glad that you did :) Here are a few photos of our wedding so you can see more of the venue and GORGEOUS bridal house they just built! -

We simply cannot say enough good things about Mountainside. The location is amazing. Just the right amount of Montana. The perfect amount of rural rustic and modern amenities. We have a choice of multiple locations on the property for the ceremony, each felt special and unique. The brides house is stunning. We've never seen a venue with something like it. On the day of the wedding it was the prefect place to prepare, and after the wedding a perfect place to finish the evening. The grooms tent was another brilliant idea, and gave the guys a place to go and be out of the way and chill out. The best part of the experience though was the hosts. Dave and Loraine are amazing. They went the extra mile over and over to make everything just right. When the weather shifted on us, they didn't miss a beat and handled everything. They are so calm and cool through everything. You could not ask for a more capable and competent team to have your back and make sure everything works out. Everything about Mountainside met and exceeded our expectations. We got the perfect wedding!Mountainside Weddings's reply:
Michael and Andrea....thank you both so much for your kind words. Dave and I had so much fun with your wedding and all the creative thoughtfulness that went into your amazing day. The weather definitely gave us some curve balls. We are so glad that you enjoyed every aspect of what we offer here at Mountainside, we truly are trying to create something special and unique and thank you for appreciating all the little details. We are so happy to have shared in your perfect day! -

Dan A. Sent on 07/06/2018The Venue is 5 STAR, and so was the entire process of working with the McGough Mountain team. From concept and our initial meeting to our big day, the experience could not have been better! It was Absolutely a phenomenal experience and smooth sailing with folks who were professional and paid attention to every detail - from parking to bridal dressing room, to the most elegant outhouse & porta potties you will ever experience, fragranced by the largest live blooming lilies I have ever seen! An experience of a lifetime in an exquisite setting!
