We require 50% down to confirm your date. The remaining 50% balance is due 60 days prior to your date. Deposits are non-refundable, which is an industry standard considering we turn away clients once a desired date is booked. A Damage deposit will be due just two weeks prior to your event and is fully refundable after everything checks out.

The Woodlands’ beautiful location books up very quickly and often we are booked at least a year in advance. Don’t be discouraged if you aren’t booking a year in advance. We can find a date that will work if you are flexible! Some off-season months or weekdays are easier to find with shorter notice, and with luck, perhaps even a Friday or Sunday may be available in the month you are looking for. Don’t forget that on occasion we do have cancellations, so the coveted Saturday does sometimes pop up. Just contact us and we will find something that works for you!

Yes. The grounds of The Woodlands provides many options for wedding ceremonies or receptions, outdoor as well as indoor. You can walk down the aisle in our lush meadow, in our great hall or set the scene on our one-of-a-kind pergola bridge. You can host your wedding reception indoors in our great room or have an outdoor reception on our lawn. Our patio area offers an ideal location for a cocktail hour and space for an intimate standing room ceremony or for an expanded reception through the French doors of the great room.

Your date is yours when we have received your signed contract and initial deposit. As soon as you have chosen the date for your wedding or reception, please contact us. We will place a 7-day courtesy hold on your date while the contract is being drawn up and to give you time to return it with a deposit. If you require a Woodlands-signed copy of your contract, please request it and it will be emailed to you after the deposit has been posted.

Down payments can be made by check, cash or credit card to The Woodlands. We accept Visa, MC, and Discover. You may make your damage deposit payments by providing The Woodlands with a credit card number. We will run the damage deposit of $1000 as an authorize only, which will not appear as a charge on your card unless actual damage occurs.

Yes, we do showings by appointment only. Schedule a tour here or email or call if you can’t find a time slot online and we can work with you! There is nothing like viewing our spectacular location in person.

Yes, there is no sales tax in the state of Montana. If the beauty of Montana (and The Woodlands) isn’t enough to bring you here for your wedding, this is another darn good reason. Just for fun, take your own state’s sales tax and multiply it by the average wedding cost in Bozeman, $23,500, and see how much you can save!

If your dates are flexible, we offer discounts on our location rental during weekdays (Mon.-Thurs.)

We offer space for special events during May through October and our rates vary depending on whether you are interested in a weekend or weekday. Email us at info@montanawoodlands.com for the most current pricing and information.
