The Ranch at Stoney Creek was the perfect venue for our wedding weekend. Their communication was always timely, helpful, and friendly, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. They reminded us of things that we hadn't thought of throughout the planning process and always had an option for a solution if we did not have one. The quality of their work and overall value was truly breathtaking - the floral bouquets they put together were beyond what we could have imagined, and their coordinator Michelle has an incredible eye for detail, ensuring our vision came to life in their tranquil and versatile space. Having a 3-day wedding celebration was something we had never heard of before, but The Ranch made it an absolute dream - from the welcome party with s'mores on Friday, to the main event on Saturday, and the farewell brunch on Sunday. We relive our special day over and over and cannot thank The Ranch enough for everything they did to make it so memorable.

Deloro Valley is one of the most naturally beautiful wedding venues I have ever been to, without the stuffy and stiff vibes of other venues. It feels like a very liberating sanctuary with a sort of 'adult summer camp' vibe. The team is incredibly friendly and the communication is excellent, responsive and diligent. As a wedding planner, it was rare to have every guest mention the space was hard to leave. They went above and beyond to accommodate requests and make the experience truly unique and special. It's clear how important the happiness of the client is to the Deloro Valley team. Most of my wedding guests said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to.

Our wedding experience was nothing short of magical, and it's all thanks to the incredible efforts of Jessica, our outstanding wedding coordinator at this enchanting venue. From the moment we engaged her services, we found ourselves effortlessly gliding through the entire process without a single moment of stress. Jessica's expertise and meticulous attention to detail were evident in every aspect of our special day. So much so, that I wholeheartedly entrusted her with the arrangement of the florals, not laying eyes on them until the wedding day itself. To say she exceeded our expectations would be an understatement – every detail was flawlessly executed. The venue itself is an absolute gem, radiating an undeniable charm that contributed to the overall magic of the occasion. The accompanying homes provided for our use were not only incredibly cute but also showcased Jessica's unwavering commitment to perfection – no detail was left unattended. Reflecting on our wedding day, my spouse and I find ourselves repeatedly expressing the sentiment that, if given the chance, we would relive that extraordinary day over and over again. This venue, with Jessica at the helm, truly created an unforgettable experience, and we couldn't be more grateful for the seamless, beautiful celebration she orchestrated. Thank you Jessica!

After extensive searching, we stumbled upon this place via family friend recommendation. It was perfect! The owners responded quickly to any questions and concerns we had. Not only was the venue GORGEOUS, but we, as well as the wedding party, were able to rent the venue the night before and the night of the wedding. It saved us a lot of stress because our wedding party was all in one place! This also allowed our vendors to set up earlier in the day. We love Red Tail Ranch and are planning on spending a weekend there in the near future!

You cannot go wrong with this venue. The property was ideal and could be scaled to meet the needs of our wedding and reception. I cannot say enough about Elaine and her family, making themselves available to us throughout the planning stage. They also made sure we had everything in place for the day of the event.
