A MONTANA COUNTRY WEDDING
You could have a wedding that is beautiful and simple, set right here in God’s country. Begin your life together amidst the strength and oneness that this beautiful country offers.
The picturesque Lennep Church could be the setting for your wedding, or you can choose to be married under the canopy of Montana’s Big Sky or at the Bonanza Creek Lodge. The Church was established in 1891 and is well loved and cared for by this small ranching community.
After the ceremony, gather at the Bonanza Creek Lodge where you can host your reception. Let the fun begin with a view that will take your breath away.
WHAT WE OFFER FOR YOUR UNIQUE COUNTRY WEDDING
Weddings by Wenda – We highly recommend Pastor Wenda who will meet with you and get to know your love story. It’s about you and your life together, not everything and everybody else. She is a beloved, experienced wedding officiant and will create with you a wedding ceremony that will be warm and personalized.
Ceremony – You can wed at the quaint Lennep Church which is just the right size for small and intimate or seats up to 90. You can choose to marry outdoors in a casual setting under the canopy of Montana’s big sky or make your vows at the Bonanza Creek Lodge. What a choice!
Reception at the lodge – Feast on a sit-down dinner for a group up to 24, or for a larger group, spill out onto the deck and enjoy the gazebo and the casual atmosphere and view of the beautiful Crazy Mountains. We will rent you the lodge for the day ($250) and leave the food, wedding cake, flowers, liquor, photographer, music, and all else up to you. Keep it simple or splurge to your hearts delight.
Photo Ops – The church is picturesque in its country setting and is beautiful inside, use the gorgeous countryside as a backdrop, or it is hard to beat the view from the deck. Or maybe down by Bonanza Creek with the old sheepherder’s wagon.
A Spot to Dress – Book a cabin for the day or night.
Cabin for Bride and Groom – A secluded little cabin just for you when the day is done.
There are 3 additional cabins if more of your party would like to stay. Included with your cabin is fishing, hiking, access to the Lewis and Clark National Forest, and, of course, peace and quiet. Check them out here: https://bonanzacreekcountry.com/vacation-cabins/

“To say that Wenda did a wonderful job in officiating our wedding would be an understatement. From our very first meeting and through to the big day, she took the time to get to know us on a personal level and recognize the small unique characteristics of our relationship. She made us feel comfortable from the very beginning and helped us recognize what each of us could bring to our marriage based on our life experiences. “
