Beautiful Views, Amazing Food, Surprisingly Disappointing Service

My now husband and I booked our venue at Gainey Ranch 13 months in advance from our wedding day - we fell in LOVE with Gainey Ranch Golf Club since day 1 at the Open House we visited. Our wedding day was gorgeous ... the views and photos there are spectacular! The food was OUTSTANDING! Seriously amazing amazing food, our guests were raving. I felt so disheartened and disappointed however by the lackluster poor service at the very end of our engagement journey and our wedding day. I am convinced this is a fluke and was an off-day. The service was just lacking in terms of the waiter-to-guest ratio, and we heard some comments from family members and guests regarding not being treated very well by staff. The attention day of from the Gainey staff was lacking but thankfully we were too in love and happy to notice it. Again, I am convinced this is a fluke because we had great treatment and attention from everyone the entire year - I was convinced we were going to get spectacular service, but for what we paid for.... it is disappointing. We had our ceremony at our church which was my dream since childhood, so perhaps that made the staff feel like the extra personalized touch for us and extra hard work wasn't as necessary? I hope that Gainey Ranch turns things around for future couples, because it is SUCH a lovely place to have a wedding! Overall we had an amazing day despite certain balls being dropped with service.

Wedding Venue

Great venue, great location with great pricing. They have several colors of linen to choose from, rose petals for the aisle, white chairs for ceremony and silver/grey chairs for reception. You can always upgrade from this too. This venue has beautiful views of the golf course, desert and the mountains-you get to choose what view you want for the ceremony - Gainey Ranch area is my favorite part of town. We had the ceremony outside with reception inside. Lauren was great to work with. Quick at responding to questions, flexible, professional, friendly, and laidback. The food (we had buffet) was delicious!! Employees were welcoming and attentive. All of our friends and family raved about the food and venue. We knew this was our location once we looked at it and met with Lauren. Thank you for making our day so wonderful!
