You and your guests are sure to be swept away with all of the romance in the air. This newly built venue was designed to host beautiful weddings and events! 

 

The Ranch offers multiple ceremony site options that deliver the perfect space for any season. Whether you’ve been dreaming of having your wedding outdoors or in, you can choose what option best suites your specific needs and style.

Our rustic red barn is 8000 square feet and accommodates up to 300 guests. The venue is climate-controlled, yet maintains an open air, romantic feel. Guests can easily meander indoors or out. Enjoy a one-of-a-kind indoor/outdoor dance floor and celebrate your best day ever underneath the stars. While dancing the night away, be sure to wave hello to our pet zebra—he's a real party animal!
