Ranch Austin in absolutely perfect, in all of the ways!

Could not have had a better experience with Ranch Austin!!!!!! From coordinating our very first tour, to a whole year later / wrapping up our perfect wedding night, Chris and Melissa were increidble to work with. They are so friendly, accommodating, have great communication, and much more.
- The venue is beautiful. It was the absolute perfect mix of ranch and class that we could not find anywhere else that we looked.
- Venue was also the perfect size, with an awesome layout. Makes the wedding move through its stages so seamlessly. We loved everything about the actual grounds and building
- Price was extremely reasonable
- Highly suggest the package with Blue Events also... Ranch Austin works so well with them and all of their vendors

Beautiful venue

We loved having our wedding at Ranch Austin. The owners were very friendly and accommodating with us when we postponed our wedding due to COVID. The venue is a very beautiful space the flows smoothly from ceremony to reception. The trees and longhorns are amazing!

Perfect Day!

We had our wedding at Ranch Austin in August and it was absolutely perfect! We were originally scheduled to have our wedding in March, but due to Covid had to reschedule. The Ranch Austin team went above and beyond to make our day wonderful. The venue is absolutely beautiful and we couldn’t ask for a better location. Thank you for making our day so special! We are so grateful we were able to have our wedding at Ranch Austin!

Ranch Austin - where dreams come true

I cannot say enough great things about Ranch Austin - and more importantly their entire team! From Chris to Katie, to mom and dad - you feel truly part of their family when you walk through the door. The grounds are absolutely spectacular and truly a hidden gem in this crazy city. From the farm feel of the real Longhorns on site, to the multiple wedding location options, brides and grooms truly can make their night both personal and magical! Farm seating under the windmill allowed for some very excellent photo opportunities pre-ceremony for myself. A grooms building was perfect for Daniel to get ready, then grab some great photos as well. We chose to marry outside under the covered stage/alter. A 5:00pm ceremony was truly breathtaking with the twinkle lights, outdoor bar area, and firepit! Inside, the Bridal Suite was simply divine. Complimentary wifi allowed me to take in the small moments with my favorite playlist, enjoy a nice cold beverage with my mom and sister, and give my dad a much appreciated first look to his youngest daughter all dressed up! Having the reception inside could not have gone more smooth. Access to the AC, the outdoor patios, and having enough space to accommodate my 52 guests was absolutely perfect! Drinks, Dancing, Dinner, and Cake all went off with pure wonder! Truly a magical experience where you don't need tons of decorations as the place is truly beautiful by itself! The Team was incredibly responsive to all my crazy bridal questions and they host evening Open Houses which truly sold us on the venue! Job well done Chris and Katie - you made my dreams come true!

Beautiful Venue

I could not have been more pleased with the way my daughter’s wedding turned out. Ranch Austin is just beautiful especially at night with the lights. We drove from Houston for this venue and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. The owner and staff were amazing and went above and beyond to help us including answering our many questions. I will forever be thankful for the recommendation we received to use Ranch Austin. #aboveandbeyond #beautifulvenue

If there's one main comment I heard at my wedding it was that the venue was absolutely stunning. And I couldn't agree more. I went back and forth for a while about whether the venue cost was worth it but our wedding night proved it was. It was by far my favorite part of the wedding, more than the decor or the flowers. I had a ton of guests from out of town and they had such a great time taking pictures of the longhorns before the ceremony. It was also just a nice occupier while everyone was arriving.

The windmill ceremony site couldn't have been better, and we lucked out with nice overcast skies so it wasn't overly sunny, which that site can be.

The reception couldn't have been more beautiful with all the lights all over the trees, the outdoor bar, and the lovely bonfire. It really was perfect.

I highly recommend this venue. It really was everything we could have ever hoped for, and more.

My husband and I just got married at Ranch Austin and we couldn’t have picked a better venue. The location is far enough from the city to have that all-to-yourself feel, but still close enough that we were able to stay in and experience downtown Austin. Ranch Austin had everything I was looking for in a venue: options for an outdoor ceremony and reception, gorgeous lawn and reception spaces, and that Texas vibe with longhorns hanging out so close to the party. It was absolutely amazing and even our vendors who had never worked there before kept saying how it was one of the most beautiful venues they’ve ever seen. We are a military couple stationed on the east coast so I was nervous about planning everything so far away but Chris and Katie were always extremely accommodating and responsive whenever I asked questions and made sure that the day of went off without a hitch. Everyone LOVED the venue and we were more than pleased! Thank you so much Ranch Austin for making our wedding day perfect!

Ranch Austin is the dream wedding venue! We had a wedding of 200 guests and we were able to have dinner and the reception in the indoor Ballroom. Ranch Austin was extremely helpful and responsive! Any request we had, Ranch Austin was happy to accommodate! On top of the awesome services, the Venue itself was perfect. Like I said, we had our reception and dancing inside. We know that not everyone likes to dance the night away, so the rest of our guest had a blast hanging out outdoors playing the lawn games we brought. We got TONS of compliments on how much everyone loved the venue and how much fun they had! The Grooms area was AWESOME! Normally the groom get jipped on space, but they had their own little area. The bridal suite was beautiful and the covered stage made our ceremony look stunning! I highly recommend this venue!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
