To get to some of these waters from the Bozeman/Livingston area, the fastest way would be to go through The Park, which will cost you $25, the fee the last time I was there, but the pass is good for a week. However, you can get to the Galatin and the Madison via Hwy 191, but it's a longer loop up through Bozeman to get there.
If the snowpack is REAL heavy, like it was last year, even the Madison might be high in late June, in spite of the fact that it is a tail water...of sorts. If the flows are high, you might want to head to Idaho and fish the lower Henry's Fork, below the Ashton Dam when the PMD spinners are on the water each evening. Some good memories of when I hit that right in late June one time...
The Warm River, also in Idaho, is known for it's consistent flow, but the fish are all pretty small, at least in my experience, but it is fishable when other rivers are high.
There's also Robinson Creek in Idaho and the Fall or the Teton Rivers as well.
I could go on...and on...and on... but I'd suggest you stay a few days (or weeks!) after the wedding and get a feel for the place. It draws me back almost every year.
Cheers!
