When my husband and I first stepped foot in Red Ridge, we knew this was the place! Not only is the property immaculately well kept and beautiful, but the overall customer service we received from Bethany and Chris was beyond exceptional. We opted for the "in-house" package which includes decorations, music, photo booth, etc. and I would highly recommend this to other couples as well. The entire process and setup was amazing! Chris and Bethany are such wonderful people and made our day truly special. We received so many compliments from our guests about the beautiful venue, the decorations, and set-up! Thank you to Red Ridge for truly making 11.18.17 the best day ever!

Red Ridge is absolutely breathtaking! What makes it even better are the passionate owners and amazing staff! From day one, you could tell that the owners, Chris and Bethany, love what they do and go above and beyond to ensure that guests at their venue are treated like royalty. We were just taken away by the attention to detail provided in every aspect of our wedding. The staff, Adam, Tina and Chris were just as wonderful and passionate about their jobs as the owners. We had so many compliments about the venue and service from our guests. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, our wedding day turned out even better than we could have ever imagined! Even all of the vendors recommended by Chris and Bethany were wonderful to work with! Thank you to the amazing people at Red Ridge for helping us create beautiful memories!

I have worked as a photographer at Red Ridge and I have to say I was so in love with the venue, up in a hill, amazing scenery, very cozy, and welcoming. I loved the outdoor/indoor accommodations, and the fact that they provide a little gulf cart to take the couple anywhere around the property to take portraits. I definitely recommend Red Ridge for any brides wanting good quality service and a nature oriented wedding!

Red Ridge is amazing to work with! Flexible, informative, and very communicative, which as all know those three things are very important when working with a vendor. I would absolutely recommend this venue to hold a wedding. The hill country views are breathtaking and they really give their clients and their vendors the best service.
