A venue to remember

The Rimrock Ranch Team was amazing and so incredibly helpful throughout the weekend. We had our entire wedding party and families stay with us at the ranch to keep those most important close all weekend. The accommodations were fantastic. Having the entire ranch to ourselves meant that people could spread out if they wanted to and not feel cramped. Not to mention all the places for photos to be taken. If you are looking for a desert vibe for your wedding, this is the place to do it.

Perfect Wedding in the Perfect Setting

The high desert is a special place for us. It's a second home and it's where we truly fell in love. So it was a no-brainer to have our wedding there. Rimrock Ranch was the first venue we toured and we knew right away that it was the right place for us. The grounds and views are stunning, the cabins are charming, and the staff is like family.

Gwen, Eric, Reno, and Team are incredibly kind, thoughtful, accommodating, and easy-going. They make you feel right at home and completely safe in their hands. They've done a bunch of these and it shows. They also have fantastic vendor recommendations. The bartenders, the caterers, and the audio set-up were all first-rate.

We had the wedding of our dreams at Rimrock Ranch and could not recommend them more!

Perfection

If you are looking for a rustic desert landscape for your wedding, look no further. My wedding was everything I imagined PLUS so much more. Now, I want to mention that getting married in the middle of the desert is not for the faint of heart. You will be dusty from start to finish, you will lose your voice from screaming and dancing and inhaling dirt all wknd, but that is all part of the experience I must say. Instead of a cliche wedding on the beach or in a church, how about having your guests remember the insane Dr. Suess-like Joshua trees, the orange to blue gradient sunsets, the desert sounds and dancing among endless bright stars. I can not say enough good things about Rimrock Ranch. I want to get married all over again here. :)

I also want to add that my husband and I never got the chance to physically meet Eric or Gwen, but they were extremely communicative and lovely nonetheless. Reno was SOOOO helpful, you rock, Reno!!!! Thank you to all of the staff there, my husband and friends and I cannot wait to come back again.
