They built Reptacular Ranch, and together, took a bunch of animal enthusiasts and turned us into a Reptacular family.

My husband and I had an amazing wedding at the fun, unique, beautiful and animal-filled Reptacular Animal Ranch!!! We looked at a LOT of options, and this was hands down our favorite. I would highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for an event space that is customizable and will keep guests talking for a long time. We had several animals at our wedding. Alpacas, dressed as a bride and groom, greeted guests as they arrived for the ceremony, we had a petting zoo for guests to explore during happy hour and we rode in on camels for our grand entrance. The camels were the highlight of our year and a great surprise for our guests! The owners, Cory and Jen, are very responsive to texts, calls and emails, helped with an array of questions and day-of needs and provided all information in an organized and easy to understand manner, with no hidden fees. They are open to creativity, with most things being allowed, so long as it is legal and safe for their animals and permit weddings to go on until 2AM, if you choose. The pricing structure is fair and reasonable. We took advantage of many of the venue offerings, such as: a firepit, a bar, large fridge (for drinks, cake and leftovers), the dance floor, free parking, changing trailer, restrooms, alter, tables and chairs. My husband and I love this place so much that we would like to go back to the ranch for our anniversary! *I would NOT recommend Diana as the day-of coordinator.

  • Allows pets

Venue considerations

  • Requires outside catering services
  • Limited cleanup and setup services
  • No built-in audiovisual options
La Tuna Locations was the wedding venue of our absolute dreams. We loved the idea of getting married surrounded by citrus trees--it felt uniquely Southern Californian--so we were immediately excited when we saw the photos. But visiting the place in person, we were transported. It's absolutely stunning in person, and the variety of locations within the property for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception made it feel like were we getting three spaces for the price of one--four if you count the stunning photo shoot we did on the mountaintop. Jaime was absolutely incredible to work with (and recommended our outstanding coordinator as well). She was flawlessly professional, but warm and kind. We trusted they knew what they were doing, but we never felt like we were dealing with a wedding factory. This place is an absolute gem.

We recently celebrated our wedding at Roca Oaks Ranch, and it was absolutely perfect. The ceremony took place during the day, surrounded by lush greenery, open skies, and a beautifully maintained outdoor space. Everything felt so fresh, clean, and thoughtfully arranged — the ranch is clearly well cared for. Our guests kept complimenting the peaceful atmosphere and how elegant everything looked without feeling overdone. The natural setting created a warm, relaxed vibe, and there was plenty of space for both the ceremony and reception.
