Places to get Married in Billings, Montana
- Bed and breakfasts are unusual wedding venue options since most cannot accommodate crowds of more than 50 people. But for those wanting an intimate reception and ceremony, bed and breakfasts such as Somewhere in Time Bed and Breakfast (ourbedandbreakfast.com) can give you the setting for a Victorian-inspired wedding. Located near Pryor Creek Golf Course, room rates range from $75 to $120 per night for two adults, as of April 2011. The outdoor garden can accommodate up to 80 guests and doubles as a reception venue.
- Gardens and parks offer a romantic take on wedding ceremonies and receptions, while helping you save on decoration costs. The Dan Walt Gardens (artbywalter.com/gardens.html) located on Washington Street, hosts garden weddings, especially during the months of April to June, when lilies and alliums are in full bloom. The Dan Walt Gardens also has a hall measuring 58 by 60 feet to serve as a wedding reception venue. A kitchen and ample powder rooms are available near the reception hall.
- For those who want a more rustic feel to their wedding, the Dude Rancher Lodge (duderancherlodge.com) is located on North 29th Street. Located in downtown Billings, the lodge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The lodge has a 400-square-foot function room named the Fireside Room, where you can have your indoor wedding ceremony and reception. Dude Rancher Lodge also provides catering for wedding receptions. If kids are on your guest list, they stay for free at the lodge.
