Great Venue for an Unforgettable Wedding.

Had our wedding out here on April 15th 2023 after a near record setting winter of snow. Parking was a bit of a concern with the snow melt but the staff out at the ranch got everyone parked in the yard.

The cabins for both nights were great and we received a lot of compliments on the venue. Definitely recommend going for the 2 night signature package for the convenience of having everyone out there the night before and the night after. Jay and Kari were both very helpful throughout the process. I can't comment on the available camping spots because our spring wedding turned into essentially a winter one, but they do have spots available.

We held our ceremony in the Copper Jewel Barn and the set up was plenty big enough for the expected 175 guests we had. Things were readjusted from ceremony to reception pretty quickly and the dance floor had plenty of room to keep people out there all night.

I would recommend the Bison Light if buying kegs for the reception, it was perceived very well by all of the light beer drinkers we had out at the wedding. They also have a few other beers that I enjoyed, even being a set in stone light beer drinker myself. It was also nice that we were able to have the first keg of the two we bought tapped in the bridal cabin the evening before for the rehearsal dinner, and then have the remainder moved to the barn for the reception the next evening.

Overall were pleased with the venue and wedding and even with mother nature trying it's hardest to make things difficult, everything went well.

Wonderful Experience

Planning a wedding during the pandemic was very stressful at times, but my experience working with Black leg Ranch was amazing. They were very flexible with the changes and concerns COVID-19 brought about. I was able to contact them and received quick responses answering all my questions and request. Jay and Kari were very friendly and welcoming from the beginning and I would highly recommend their services for your special day/event.
