Dunrovin Ranch Event Center - A Taste of Montana
Dunrovin Ranch Event Center
A small, private ranch surrounded by the Bitterroot and Sapphire Mountains - located on the Bitterroot River with over half a mile of river access. Only minutes from downtown Missoula with its “big city” charms – shopping, theater, music, dining. Personal service at its best! Family atmosphere – more like visiting a favorite relative than staying at a commercial operation.
Majestic views and a down-home feel provide the ideal setting for a Montana wedding. And the amenities don't stop at the natural landscape.
A log-crafted, 20x40 covered Dance Pavilion is wired and lighted, ready for an all night dance party.
The ranch has tables and chairs to help you seat up to 90 guests. The outside grounds can hold up to 500 people. Your event can be as intimate or as extravagant as you like!
Two nights of lodging is included in your event package and the modern cottages hold up to 10 people - but camping on site is also available.
Two full service kitchens provide ample space for staging and preparation for your big event. Bring in your own caterer or we can set you up with a favorites!
Provide your own flowers or use the on-site landscaped elements such as flowers, grape vines, potted plants and trees during for color and depth during the summer months.
There are 3 patios available for your event, including fire-pits and seating.
The Dunvovin Ranch Event Center is the perfect Montana setting for your special day!

A Worldly Affair!
The story of Rachel and Jonty's courtship is full of laugh and long distance love. But not much could keep the happy couple apart and they celebrated their eternal union with style and class and friends from far and wide!
The couple first contacted me when they were living abroad in Hong Kong. Planning a wedding is stressful enough without the thousands of miles that separate you from your venue. So I was thrilled to assist the couple.
Rachel opted to replace any cut flowers with paper crafted poms from gorgeous purple and silver papers. The poms acted as centerpieces, napkin rings and wine bottle charms. The LED candles were encased in gorgeous purple glass votives holders. Seating was assigned and the table's were designated by maps of metropolitan cities worldwide. The perfect touch for this worldly couple!
All the rage cupcakes were iced with delicious lavendar and vanilla frosting. The meal was deliciously prepared by first time caterers - Jaker's - and the bar was stocked with local beer to be sipped by their friends who traveled from all over, including Pakistan, the UK, Singapore, Hong Kong and of course Montanan's from Miles City and Great Falls!
Love was in the air and it couldn't be escaped! Both the Father of the Bride and the Groom showered Rachel and their guests with adoring stories and heartfelt thanks. When the dancing begin it was hard to pull anyone off the dance floor. It was definitely the place to be! Ryan, the gracious DJ from RMF DJ's, continued to play well into the night after the guests insisted on dancing some more, and more and more.

Best Friends & a Celebration of Love!
I was thrilled to work with Lori & Brad!
They were so easy-going and such straight-shooters that arranging all the wedding pieces was hardly a chore. I felt like I was helping good friends create a historical day in their life long love story!
Lori & Brad knew their colors were to be red and gold. They were sure Heritage Hall was the perfect spot. And Lori had no doubts that she would walk down the aisle to a favorite Queen song "You're My Best Friend".
Other than that they hoped for suggestions and referrals. Knowing the couple's excitement about their upcoming honeymoon to India and Lori's all-time favorite food dish being Gobi Aloo (a delicious Indian dish), it seemed fitting to incorporate some of the rich elements of that country's culture.
Recipe for a "Queen" Wedding:
Venue: Heritage Hall, Missoula, MT
Caterer: LeFebvre Catering
Flowers: Mo Gary
Cake/Cupcakes: Margaret Ambrose-Barton

Congratulations Lori & Brad!
