Where to Stay

Accommodations

Stay at Six Mile Estate

With seven homes and room for roughly 55 guests, Six Mile Estate lets us gather our favorite people in one place for the entire weekend.

Built in the 1930s as a summer retreat from Montana's Copper King era, Six Mile Estate sits on the shore of Swan Lake, about fifteen minutes from downtown Bigfork. Its original stonework, fireplaces, and Art Deco details have been lovingly preserved.

Eighteen acres, seven historic homes, and more than 2,200 feet of shoreline are yours to explore, with paths, Six Mile Creek, docks for swimming, and a pickleball court. The lodge is the heart of it all, with a dining room, living room, game room, restrooms, and Wi-Fi (cell service is limited onsite).

The Welcome Party and wedding are our gift to every guest, wherever you are staying. For those staying onsite, the rate simply helps offset the cost of your lodging, meals, and drinks for the remainder of the weekend, including Saturday's recovery day, reserved for guests staying onsite. Each home has its own personality, and as with many historic cottages, a few rooms share a bedroom or bathroom.

If you are traveling on your own or as a pair and would like to share a room with other guests, please reach out to us and we will happily help connect you.

Six Mile is a treasured piece of Montana history, and we kindly ask everyone to care for the homes and grounds as generations of families have before us. Please take a moment to review the Six Mile Estate Guest Rules.

Flathead Valley

Explore

A few of our favorite spots around Bigfork and the Flathead Valley, if you have a little extra time.

Downtown Bigfork

Bigfork has a charming little downtown with shops, restaurants, and plenty of places to stop for ice cream. There may also be a local market over the weekend, so check with local shops for the latest details.

Huckleberry Everything

Don't leave Montana without trying huckleberry in some form. A shake, jam, or ice cream is a must. If you'd like to take some home, Eva Gates in downtown Bigfork is our favorite place to find huckleberry preserves.

Glacier National Park

If you're renting a car, Glacier is well worth a day trip. With mountains, alpine lakes, and wildlife around nearly every turn, it's one of Montana's most spectacular places to explore. Be sure to check road and weather conditions before you go.

Hiking

There are countless trails around the Flathead Valley, from easy walks to more adventurous hikes. You'll often find yourself completely alone on the trails, so don't forget your bear spray.

Flathead Lake

This is a must if you have the time! Rent a boat, book a guided outing, or take a tour to Wild Horse Island. Flathead Lake is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, and it's where Kristi and Tanner have spent many summer days on the boat of Tanner's grandpa, Papa Larry.

Fishing

Montana is known for its trout fishing, and we love spending time on the water fishing for trout with Bobpa, Tanner's grandpa, and bringing a few home for dinner. You'll need a Montana fishing license, or you can book a guided trip with a local outfitter who can help with the logistics.

White Water Rafting

A fun way to experience Montana's rivers. Tanner's dad spent his summers as a rafting guide, making it a longtime part of his Montana summers.

A Day in Whitefish

About 50 minutes from Bigfork, Whitefish makes for an easy day trip. Explore the charming downtown, grab lunch or a drink, browse the shops, or spend some time at Whitefish Lake. And, of course, stop by one of the local saloons.

Horseback Riding

Tanner's grandmother, T, had horses for many years, so horses have always been a part of Montana summers. If you'd like to go, we recommend looking for a local outfitter near where you're staying.

Golf

Polson Bay Golf Course is a family favorite. About 40 minutes from Bigfork, it's where the Scattini family plays each year and a favorite way to spend a day with the Montana side of the family.

Things to Know

Montana

Plan Your Transportation

Uber and Lyft are not readily available around Bigfork. If you plan to drink, arrange a ride ahead of time rather than counting on finding one at the last minute. We will have shuttles to and from Bigfork for the wedding.

Watch Your Speed

Montana roads can feel wide open, but speed limits are enforced. When driving through the Flathead Indian Reservation, you may encounter tribal, county, or state law enforcement, with different jurisdictions applying depending on where you are. Pay attention to posted speed limits and give yourself plenty of time to get where you're going.

Know the Local Rules

The Flathead Indian Reservation is home to the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes. If you plan to fish, hike, camp, or otherwise explore Tribal lands, check ahead for any permits or regulations that may apply. Rules vary depending on where you are, so it's always best to check before heading out.

Download Your Maps

Cell service can be limited once you leave town or head into the mountains. Download directions before setting out, especially for longer drives and trips into Glacier National Park.

Keep an Eye Out for Wildlife

Deer, elk, and other wildlife are common, particularly around dawn and dusk. Slow down and stay alert, even when the road looks empty.

Come Prepared for the Weather

September can bring beautiful warm days and cool evenings, sometimes with a quick change in conditions. Layers are your friend.

How It Began

Our Story

It began at Cal Poly during our second year, in 2019, at a party neither of us expected to remember. Tanner saw Kristi across the room and knew right away that she was someone special. Kristi took her time, in the way that thoughtful people do, and Tanner was more than willing to wait. He kept showing up, hoping she might feel the same.

In 2022, everything finally fell into place. Tanner asked Kristi to be his date to a formal in Las Vegas, and she said yes. By the end of that trip, he knew, deep down, that she was the one. A few months later, on May 5th, 2022, they officially started dating. Little by little, through all the moments in between, Kristi came to know it too.

Together we raised our dog Wrigley, traveled the world, and built a life where we can always count on one another. On March 20th, 2026, Tanner got down on one knee at Sun Gold Point in San Diego, and Kristi said yes! We celebrated late into the night with loved ones, grateful for where we had been, where we are, and everything still ahead of us.

Now, after all these years, we cannot wait to celebrate this next chapter surrounded by the people who mean the most to us. That means you.
