Travel
Missoula International Airport (MSO)
We recommend flying into Missoula, renting a car and driving about 90 minutes south to Hamilton and Darby.
Out here, the stars are easy to find, but an Uber isn’t. Please take advantage of our shuttle service described below or arrange your ride ahead of time—Hamilton and Darby aren’t exactly on the grid and parking at the venue is limited.
Where to Stay
The Bitterroot has no shortage of places to stay — from classic hotels to cozy rentals. Here are a few we like.
Hamilton, Montana
(1 hour south of Missoula, 20 minutes north of venue)
Hamilton brings together open landscapes and a classic Main Street feel. Comfortable, scenic, and full of quiet charm.
Bitterroot River Inn
Bitterroot River Inn is one of the nicer hotels in town. It’s in a great location and has many traditional hotel amenities.
This will serve as the pick-up and drop-off point for the wedding shuttle bus. Shuttles will return here from the wedding every hour after the reception.
