Having worked with Terry & Cassie for multiple weddings, I have nothing but good things to say. They and their crew put their heart and soul into every wedding I've been part of. Not only one of Glacier Park (and this valley's) most perfectly located venues, but they have everything to offer all in one place. Great owners, staff, location and venue! - Jennifer Mooney
