Awarded Best of Zola
Spruce Mountain Ranch was perfect for our 9/21/24 wedding! The staff was incredible during the planning and execution of our day! Brus Osborne was amazing to work with from our initial tour in 2022 all the way through our wedding day. Emily Wanderscheid was awesome the day of our event, so kind and helpful! The venue is so beautiful, most of our guests were from out of state and loved the venue. My husband and I truly had the best day of our lives and we are forever thankful for choosing and trusting Spruce Mountain Ranch with the most important day of our lives!

Ragged Mountain Events was an absolute dream venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, Steve and Rhonda were in constant contact, guiding us through every step with kindness and open communication. The quality of their work was absolutely stunning - the rustic, natural beauty of the venue was the perfect backdrop for our special day. As we were their first wedding, they bent over backwards to bring in additional facilities and finish the buildings to make it a truly special experience for us.
