Tim Baldwin & Amy McGann
We’re so excited to celebrate this next chapter with you in the place where we fell in love and decided to stay. This won’t be a black tie ballroom kind of weekend (you probably guessed that). It’ll be more horses and mountains, music and meaning. Keep scrolling, as every detail on this page is here to help you feel at home and part of the story.

The Woodlands at Cottonwood
Ceremony & Reception to be Held At
We met and fell in love in Montana, and somewhere between long drives, slow mornings, and riding horses in the mountains, we knew this was home, and found home in each other as well. Tim proposed on the trail with our horses by our side, just the two of us and the open sky. It was intimate, a dream, and perfectly us. That’s how we want our wedding to feel, too.
Nothing over-the-top. Nothing that feels like playing dress-up. Just a day that reflects who we are and the place that brought us together, with the people we love most.
Please be sure to explore the links below for our recommendations on attire, things to do around Bozeman, lodging, and other ways to have the best experience with us this summer!
Of Us
The Story
We put together a Pinterest board full of ideas. You don't have to follow it exactly, but if you want a little guidance or you're excited to lean into the destination energy, it's there to help you feel connected to the celebration.
Dress Code Inspiration
We've decided to keep our wedding ceremony and reception an adult-only celebration.
We'd love to see your family at the welcome party on Thursday and we recommend 406 Nannies for childcare support during the wedding on Friday. Their providers specialize in outdoor adventures, screen-free fun, and have infant care specialists on staff. We recommend booking now as summer fills up fast!
A Note on Kiddos
We welcome jeans, but only clean, newer jeans (NOT your work pair). Pair them with a button-down shirt and a blazer or sport coat if that feels right. A suit is great too if that's more your style.
What WON'T work: shorts, hoodies, t-shirts, or anything you've worn to work in the barn or the shop. Please keep it classy and intentional, gentlemen.
Men
We’re calling the vibe mountain chic, which basically means fancy wedding, but practical. You'll be navigating a mix of dirt roads, grass, and indoor floors, so wear something you won't regret walking (or dancing!) in. Chunky heels, boots, or flats are your best bet, so save the stilettos for another day.
Layers are recommended. Montana weather can shift from sun to wind to chilly in a heartbeat, even in July. A jacket, shawl, or wrap will be your friend.

Dress Code & Resources
what we'dlove you to know:
We've also gathered our best recommendations below for lodging, transportation, and things to do around Bozeman. Whether you're flying in early to explore or staying an extra day to ride horses in the mountains, we hope you'll make the most of being here.
Planning Your Stay
AC Room Block: included hot breakfast & right downtown
Bozeman is VERY busy during the summer so it's best to reserve ASAP, since preferred places book up fast. We have a room block set up at 3 Marriott options, (book by 5/31) and the AC (book by 6/19.) If you're choosing an Airbnb, we recommend the Bozeman or Gallatin Gateway areas. You'll be close to the venue and still within a 20-minute drive of great hiking, shopping, and restaurants. Our recommendations, in order:
Lodging
Where to Stay
Lewis & Clark Motel: cool pool and sauna
The LARK: downtown with great coffee shop right inside
Marriott Room Block: Main Street location is walkable to downtown
Home2Suites
Ubers exist in Bozeman, but they're scarce once you leave town. Cell service is also limited in many areas, so relying on rideshare apps can get dicey. You may want to consider renting a car or scheduling rides with Mountain Mule, Tim's private car service, Montana style. We're also planning shuttle service after the reception to bring guests back to hotels, where you could get an Uber to your final destination if you opted for an Airbnb. More details to come as we get closer, but know that renting a car will give you the most flexibility during your trip.

How to Get Around
Explore Now
Montana has a way of getting under your skin, so we hope you'll give yourself some time to explore while you're here. We'll have a welcome gathering on Thursday, July 30th, and we'd love to see you there! Details available here.
Things to do
What to Do in Montana
One of our favorite places in town. Great for ditching your phone for a couple hours and actually getting into your body. This traditional Russian banya is the least "Montana" recommendation here, but it's our every-other-week date night spot.
Umvelt Bathhouse
Tim's company, Mountain Mule, offers the most personalized Yellowstone National Park tours, with a late-start option. Get in touch at 406 595 1927 to plan your trip.
Yellowstone Park Tour
Shan: Thai fusion meets local Montana ingredients. This place feels like stepping into an absolute other world. A must-visit.
Revelry: Downtown bistro vibes with great cocktails and shareable plates.
Stacey's: A true Montana experience.
Feed Cafe or Jam!: Bougie breakfast and Amy's favorites. Get there early or be ready to wait.
The Western Cafe: Classic diner breakfast and Tim's favorite. No frills, just good food and strong coffee.
Restaurants
If you only go to one bar or do one thing while you're here, make it this. Wednesday nights are dance lessons, and Friday and Saturday feature open dancing with live music. Pair your evening of dancing with dinner at the historic Stacey's steakhouse next door and it will be the most Montana experience you'll have all weekend.
Dancing at the Westerner
THINGS TO DO in Montana
our favorites
Book a ride at the 320 Guest Ranch and get a taste of what brought Amy out West in the first place!
Check AllTrails.com to find a great hike and views even just outside of town.
Horseback Riding & Hiking
Chico Hot Springs and Bozeman Hot Springs are great options. Bozeman has live music by the pools on Thursdays and Sundays.
Hot Springs
You'll see we've made a few selections, but honestly, we have everything we need. What we're most looking forward to is this next season of life and eventually building a home together. If you feel inclined to give a gift, we're accepting contributions toward that dream. But truly, your presence in Montana is more than enough.
Peek At Our Registry
As a professional brand and web designer, I thought for so long that my role was to reflect my clients back to themselves. Now I know better.
My role is to shatter what they think their brand is capable of and how it’s perceived in the world.
I’ve found that so often, folks think that simply talking about their services more will get them where they want to be. Then they downplay their impact and underestimate the level they’re operating at.
We’re done with all of that.
Because the brand your industry pressed into you was never yours to carry.
Instead, we build the brand that could only belong to you. The one that makes you the Obvious Choice.
