Recommendations

Such a wonderful place for our event! - An Eventective User from Missoula, MT

We had a small wedding at the Nine Mile Community Center in July 2024. It was just lovely! I would highly recommend it for any event.

Had our wedding here - An Eventective User

It was absolutely gorgeous! From the small details of the church and the school house to all the things that were included were above and beyond our expectations. We talked to Steve a lot and his communication was quick and helpful. He was also accommodating when we asked to see the venue on short notice.

Perfect Mountain Wedding - An Eventective User

My husband and I got married here and it was perfect! It was a small, intimate wedding with plenty of room to expand if desired. The board members went above and beyond to ensure that our day was perfect and we had everything we would need. And a special thanks to Steve for all that he did! Definitely will use this venue again if we need one. It is perfect for so many things and was easy to book. If you are looking for the perfect venue, this is it! Thanks again Nine Mile Community Center board members! Grant & Pearl

Thank you for your kind words.
Remote and Beautiful Wedding Venue - An Eventective User from Missoula, MT

When my then-fiance and I were looking at wedding venues, he recommended this place for our wedding, his having been to a friend's wedding that was here. I am so glad he recommended it! For me, the location was perfect: remote enough that the usual distraction of the internet could be forgotten and beautifully situated in a valley with tall trees and farmland surrounding it. Not only was the location amazing, the historical nature of the buildings was quite a draw for me. That I was contributing to the history of the place and helping keep it alive is something that I do not regret. Working with the people who care for the venue was simple and efficient. They were always prompt in replying to my emails (which there were many since I had not moved to Montana yet and was choosing a venue from the East Coast.) They were very friendly and easy to work with. Thank you so much! In summary: Why do I recommend this place? 1) Very affordable wedding venue. You need to have set up and clean up (delegation is key here), but less is sometimes more. 2) If you love nature and history, Nine Mile Community Center is the place to be! 3) The people who volunteer here are easy to work with and very friendly.

Really Recommend Nine Mile - An Eventective User from Huson, MT

Nine Mile was SUPER affordable for a wedding venue. They even accommodated our needs such as tables, chairs, space to park, space for the groomsmen and bridesmaids to get ready, and bathrooms. They are all volunteers and are so friendly and helpful. There's a pavilion and lots of space in the schoolhouse to move into in case the weather gets bad. There's even a bell to ring after you are married, which is a great addition. The location is also beautiful with a field, mountains, and a beautiful spot to watch the sunset.
