You will be able to RSVP once formal invitations are sent out. However, if you already know you won't be able to make it to our wedding, please feel free to reach out to the bride or groom to let them know.
We recommend booking any flights and hotels as soon as possible. Bozeman in the summertime is the place to be which means hotels fill up fast and booking months in advance means better flight and room rates!
We have provided a list of great hotels in the Bozeman area for people to stay at under the "Travel" tab. The first six hotels listed have rooms provided for our guests at a discounted rate which you will see by following the links attached. The wedding reception is taking place at the Kimpton Armory in downtown Bozeman which is another fantastic choice to stay at which you can book through their website or by phone. Additionally, we also recommend looking into renting Airbnb's if you are traveling with a group as this can be more cost effective!
Our wedding is Semi-Formal meaning women should come in at or below the knee dresses and men should wear a suit or a dress shirt with slacks! Think of Semi-Formal as one step above cocktail and one step below formal. Please avoid wearing white and cream shades. Here's a helpful graphic to get a visual on the differing dress codes! https://www.dressforthewedding.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Wedding-dress-code-ideas-for-wedding-season-2019-from-Nordstrom.jpg
In order to keep our wedding intimate, we have formally invited every one of our guests by name. If you received a plus one, their name will appear when you RSVP.
We recommend renting a car if traveling in a group or Ubering to and from both places. Manhattan Christian Reformed Church (ceremony site) is about 25 minutes away from Bozeman/Kimpton Armory (reception site) so please plan ahead and arrange transportation to ensure no last minute surprises.
The ceremony will be starting promptly at 2pm so we are asking guests to arrive between 1:30 and 1:45 but please no earlier than 1:15. If a guest arrives after 2pm they will not be allowed inside of the church until the entire wedding party has walked down the aisle and the officiant has started. The reception will begin promptly at 4pm beginning with cocktail hour and light appetizers. We’ve allotted plenty of time to our guests to travel back to Bozeman and find parking after the ceremony in Manhattan so please don’t worry about rushing back!
There is plenty of parking at the church with large parking lots on both sides of the building. As for the reception, downtown Bozeman offers various places to park including the parking garage which is conveniently located near The Armory as well as parking lots and side street parking around downtown. The Armory also offers valet parking for a fee.
