An Experience Our Guests Will Never Forget!
My husband and I got married at Log River Ranch in October 2019. We live out of state and were unable to physically visit the venue prior to booking – but Karlee and Austin, a killer wife and husband team, went above and beyond to help us feel comfortable booking without physically being there. We met Karlee and Austin for the first time over a FaceTime venue tour when the place was covered in feet of snow – and let me tell you IT WAS BEAUTIFUL even under all that snow! We didn’t need any more convincing to book because if it is that beautiful in the dead of winter, it WILL BE beyond your wildest dreams in the summer or fall! We were able to give our guests an experience to remember not only because of the gorgeous setting of this venue, but also because of all the behind-the-scenes help from Karlee and Austin. They were on top of it from day one – timely correspondence, realistic pricing, knowledgeable, and ya’ll – probably the kindest folks you’ll ever meet! The best decision my husband and I made (aside from booking this venue) was investing in Karlee’s coordination services. Because of her, both my husband and I sat back, kicked our feet up and RELAXED on the day of our wedding. How many couples can say that?! If you’re on the fence about Log River Ranch – don’t be! It’s the greatest wedding decision we made – aside from each other, of course 😉 (All photos provided in review are by Forest Picture Company, Fort Collins, Colorado)

Gorgeous Mountain Venue
Log River Ranch is the perfect mountain venue at an approachable price point. With multiple ceremony sites, a river running through the property, ample parking and a brand new barn space, it's welcoming and accessible. The newly constructed extension provides the perfect mix of style, airiness and coverage. With a chandelier and strung lights the barn interior is stunning and doesn't need a lot of dressing up. It's also a "clean slate" in terms of styling and would work well for a more rustic or more modern vibe. The point is, unlike so many other spaces, it doesn't have stodgy features and decor. In addition, tables, linens and gorgeous wooden chairs are provided on-sight so you can avoid the hassle of renting and transporting chairs.
