This is an unfortunate review to write, because clearly the Summer Star Ranch is a great venue for…read morealmost everyone who chooses to have an event there. It is not a great venue if something goes wrong. My wedding was scheduled for the 13th of July in 2024, which was when the Horse Gulch fire really started popping off and evacuations were in place. We monitored the progression of the fire that week, and at 4:00 pm on the 12th, we chose to call off the event due to health and safety concerns for our loved ones. Summer Star communicated with us throughout the week and said it was still safe to hold the wedding, despite the only road to the ranch being blocked to the public and the fire being only a few miles away. We strongly disagreed given the unpredictability of forest fires and the air quality data my husband (an air quality specialist for the state of Montana) reviewed. We were unwilling to put the lives of 170 people in harm's way. It's crazy to me that they were willing to take that risk. During the phone call in which I informed Matt that we were not comfortable proceeding at Summer Star, he assured me they would fairly reimburse us. As it was the evening before my wedding, which I had to switch to a new venue (Shoutout to Great Divide for saving us last minute!), I did not have the time or mental capacity to nail down details. I really wish I had. They offered us a $1000 refund, to which we countered $3500 (still LESS THAN HALF of the $7500 we paid them to do absolutely nothing). After ghosting us for 4 months, they responded to a legal letter with the following: "Should you pursue legal action or in any way disparage Summer Star Ranch, we will not hesitate to seek costs and take action to protect the financial stability and reputation of our Ranch." That sounds an awful lot like a threat to keep us quiet. Due to other unfortunate life circumstances, we didn't have the energy to pursue anything further. We had signed a contract and would probably spend more on lawyers than it was worth. So, they were paid $7500 for an event that did not take place, ghosted us when we tried to get less than half back, and threatened us. They're not native Montanans and leave the state during the winter, so I guess they have less stake in the community, so maybe I was naive to expect more from a business run by people like that. Separate from all of that, Starr's communication isn't great. I had to double text/email multiple times to get pictures or information that she said she would send for planning purposes before the wedding. I think it's worth mentioning given it's the only experience I had with their standard operating procedures and it was still subpar service. I have never felt so small and taken advantage of as I have in this horrible experience. Proceed with caution.

However, I still remember the experience & wish I didn't. *Read the not currently recommended reviews!* They are not recommended because they are by users that are not necessarily active, but it doesn't mean they did not work with Audrey. We scheduled with her last minute because I wanted pictures done while we were in town and had limited time available. She was the only one who had time when we did. No wonder, because she is horrible! We would have been much much better off just taking some pictures ourselves. The pictures look cheap, but were more than I was hoping to pay. Also, since we are from out of town we asked if she could mail the final cd to us & she expressed she absolutely could not, she doesn't mail things. So we had to pay extra to have the digital copies. She was rude & very un accommodating every step of the way. She has no place or talent to be working with people at all, let alone as a photographer.

Then we arrived. It was a super cute, and huge, space for such a thing. The property is a state historical site, with the barn dating back to the 1880s, and restoration efforts kicking off in the 1940s when the current owner/family took over the property (the original owner died in the 1890s, so the marker told us, and it fell into stages of disrepair). The wedding and reception were on the main floor, effectively the upper level of a tri-level building (the lower wasn't open to us, and the top level -- presumably for feed at one point -- was only frequented by a few of the groom's buddies, and I wasn't going to venture into such misadventures. The room was spacious, something like 100 feet square, and the entire shindig used maybe half of it. There were provided heaters -- it is a barn, not a banquet hall, and it's November with temps dipping into the low 40s outside -- and plenty of space outside for farm-themed photos. (The bride and groom used them quite a bit, and I shuttled the kid around a bit to try and get some holiday card-worthy photos and avoid the studios... time will tell how well those work out for us.) Central Park it's not, but it's also a far cry from a mere "barn."
