Ember Ranch is excellent

We loved everything about Ember Ranch. They were extremely responsive throughout the entire process as well as flexible to any changes we requested. The venue is beautiful and we loved the outside space that we used for the ceremony and dj/band dancing and used the inside space for the dinner. The food was great. We got so many compliments. The bride and groom were able to go taste test food options in advance. You cannot go wrong choosing Ember Ranch for your wedding. I highly recommend them!

Wedding at Ember Ranch

We chose Ember Ranch for our March ceremony. We had no idea what the weather would be like, however the staff helped us come up with a potential "poor weather" wedding site, in case it rained. The weather turned out to be beautiful, and we were able to use the gorgeous lakefront ceremony site as planned.
The staff at Ember ranch was so incredibly kind and flexible to our needs. They were very responsive to our questions and available for meet ups on and off site.
The onsite food was very good! We ordered 180 plates of the chicken scallopini, each had generous portions. The complimentary tea is also a fan favorite.
The reception hall isn't huge, but had enough space to accommodate our 170-180 guests. We set our dance floor and DJ booth outside on their gorgeous deck space.
Speaking of deck space, Ember Ranch has a fantastic amount of deck space to host the cocktail party, photo booth, corn-hole, or any other special events you would like. (You can even fit a few tables out doors.)
All in all, Ember Ranch and their staff is unbeatable. We would definitely recommend booking your event/wedding with them.

Amazing and accommodating

If your looking for a memorable fun romantic night this is the place . As soon as you drive up you feel the love in the air . The owners of the venue are amazing !! They worked with my down payment and helped us make a healthy financial monthly payment that would work with my now husband and I . They went above and beyond with our Vission and expectations . They allowed us to have fireworks at the venue along with sparklers and not many venues can or do allow them . My guest and I loved the breath taking view of the lake and trees surrounding the venue. Not to forget the beautiful sunset that made a great background for pictures . It made it even more magical and romantic. Also staff was so helpful and clean . The food was delicious and they had plenty of options, also not too expensive . My guest couldn’t find one negative thing to say about the food , venue or the china dish decorations that was provided by venue owners . There are also two separate rooms for the bride and groom. The brides room is full of elegant mirrors, a shower and a convince private restroom. This made it a fun private and easy area to get ready for the big day drink some wine and joke around with our bridal party. I can honestly say I wouldn't change a thing about our wedding . The venue was amazing to say the least it. I strongly recommend Ember Ranch for any special event. Marcela and my wedding planner Rochelle made my dream wedding come true with every detail work they put into that night . I give the venue 5 Gold starts for its perfection in cleanliness , Beautiful atmosphere , accommodation and helpful staff.
