Gabi Z. Sent on 07/11/2023Gorgeous, perfect location
Flying Caballos is the perfect combo of "backyard", barn, vineyard vibes and it was exactly what we were looking for for our wedding weekend. Our families hadn't met until that week,, and the location allowed us to all stay on the property and get to know each other over the course of the weekend. We hosted a welcome dinner Friday night up by the farmhouse, then the wedding reception at the Barn, which provided a cool journey for our guests who got to experience the property at different times of day and see the gorgeous views from all angles. Would highly recommend this location to anyone, it's really magical. -

Sandra R. Sent on 10/23/2022Incredible and everything we were looking for in a venue!
We got married in Sept 2022 and could not imagine a better venue. It was really important to us that our bridal party could all stay onsite for the weekend. Flying Caballos provided that and more! Not only were we able to provide lodging we also hosted our rehearsal dinner on the property. We loved that we could have the ceremony on the lawn overlooking the rolling hills and that the reception was just a stroll down the beautiful steps to the barn. The staff was incredible and we are so, so happy that we got married at our dream venue. Thank you Flying Caballos Ranch! -

Flying Caballos completely exceeded our expectations. Having the venue for the entire weekend was a game-changer. It relieved so much stress and gave our families tons of time to connect before and after the wedding. Sarah was so professional and helped make the day come together perfectly.Flying Caballos Ranch's reply:
Thank you so much Haley! It was such a pleasure hosting you both as well as your lovely friends & family! Congratulations!!! -

Perfect Venue
When looking at wedding venues we immediately knew that FCR was where we wanted to get married. The welcome area at the Farmhouse and ceremony field have great views and plenty of space to welcome guests, and the barn is the perfect spot for after ceremony drinks and dancing.
It feels like you get a lot of variety and space for the day by breaking up the different components to different areas, and we loved that it was close enough to town for our guests to uber home or to hotels. We got many many compliments on the venue and it had the perfect vibe for the day we planned.
I stayed the night before in the cosy cottage on location and my bridemaids and I got ready day of in the Farmhouse, while the groomsmen took over the cosy cottage to get ready. We held our ceremony on the lawn overlooking Islay and had the meal / reception inside the barn. It was important to us to have an indoor space as it does get cold in the evenings here - we also used outdoor heaters so our guests could enjoy the space outside the barn for passed apps and drinks post ceremony and the older guests enjoyed sitting by the fireplace later into the evening.
Sarah at FCR was our coordinator, and I couldn't recommend highly enough - she made the planning and the day easy and stress free, even when we had to postpone a year due to covid! She was fantastic at communicating at the rehearsal the night before and ensuring the day ran smoothly and on time and I see great benefit in having her and her knowledge of the venue and vendors as part of the planning process.
We had the perfect day at FCR and couldn't be happier with the venue we chose and service we received, I wouldn't change a thing. We had a lot of out of town guests and felt FCR displayed the best features of the area, while remaining close to town and ticking all our boxes for accommodation on site and an inside reception area etc. Also, it is also a beautiful place to wake up on morning of and morning after the wedding! We live close by, but it felt like a destination wedding! Wedding date 07/09/22 -

Such a beautiful place for a wedding! My Husband and I had the perfect wedding weekend with family and friends at Flying Caballos Ranch. My husband and I had planned to marry here in September of 2020 but due to Covid we had to reschedule. Sarah with Flying Caballos Ranch was very understanding and made the rescheduling processes so easy! This ranch really is fantastic, the best coastal venue in our opinion, a true hidden gem! It is GORGEOUS and has so many different spots on the property for photos, guests to stay, and host different events for the wedding. The old dairy house and the yard were perfect for our rehearsal dinner, super chill and beautiful. The grass overlooking Islay Hill was an amazing spot for our ceremony and the barn is AWESOME! The barn has all kinds of room to set-up inside and out or both, it is a beautiful canvas for any event! It is centrally located in SLO, across the street from the airport which made it really easy for our out of state guests and sits perfect with 360-degree views, truly amazing. Sarah and her team were so helpful and truly cared about us and guests and had no hesitation to make any changes needed to keep the day memorable. Good people to know and to work with, we have nothing but appreciation in having them by our side for our wonderful day! We had the weekend of our dreams and would recommend this venue to anyone! Thank you, Flying Caballos Ranch! ♥♥ -

Flying Caballos is a gorgeous wedding venue and one of our favorites! Venue staff is friendly and responsive, and so easy to work with throughout the planning process. Rolling hills and green grass, the cutest farmhouses, and an awesome barn for the ultimate party! It's a win-win-win! -

Tracey Sent on 02/25/2022Beautiful Setting & So Much Run for Activities
As a local wedding planner, I can't express how much we love Flying Caballos Ranch for any upcoming wedding, event or even a week/weekend getaway! The venue provides a beautiful setting and so much room for activity and accommodations! Sarah is absolutely wonderful and easy to work with! She is so nice and very responsive! Thank you Sarah so much for your contribution for our 7th annual holiday fundraiser! Flying Caballos Ranch was the perfect fit for our Fire and Ice theme and we had an absolute BLAST! I look forward to the next opportunity to work with you and out at the ranch! XOXO! -
Christine Sent on 08/24/2018Flying Caballos Ranch was the perfect wedding venue! It has so much charm and character to offer. By the end of the weekend, I did not want to leave...like ever. The property is BIG and it very versatile. We used the main house to host taco truck rehearsal the first night. For the day of the ceremony we set-up outside on the lawn and hosted the reception in the STUNNING barn just built over the past year. The barn was a good fit for our wedding as it was a great compromise between our parents vision and ours. I lovingly refer to it as 'The Country Club of Barns' :)

Katie Sent on 10/08/2017We had such a wonderful experience at the Flying Caballos, we didn’t want it to end! Sarah is great to work with- organized and on top of it, and she knows all the best people to work with in the area. We recommend staying for three or four days if you can, to really soak it in! Thank you so much Sarah, we hope to be back soon!

Michelle Sent on 04/18/2018Our wedding at Flying Caballos was an absolute dream. I had been eyeing the venue for about 7 years, so I was very excited to finally get to have our wedding there and it to exceed my expectations. We wanted our wedding party and families to be able to stay on the property so we could really enjoy the entire weekend together. The weather was perfect and the hills were still green in late May due to the large amount of rain we had all winter. People had warned us about the wind in Edna Valley, but our day had a very light breeze. The location is perfect because you feel like you are out in the country, but you are only 10 minutes from downtown SLO. I wish I could go back and re-live the entire day again. We hope we can come back and book a weekend getaway soon. -

Michael Sent on 02/20/2017Instead of just getting married at Flying Caballos, make a weekend out of it! We had our immediate families and wedding party stay for the weekend (had a couple days to hang before the ceremony). It was the best, most peaceful weekend that I've had in a long time. Beautiful location, wonderful service from the Flying Caballos team...couldn't ask for more. We love the character of Flying Caballos--it's such a unique venue that we will cherish for years to come. We're already planning our 5-year anniversary trip with our wedding party!
