River & Roots Ranch is a 246-acre working ranch and wedding venue nestled along 1.2 miles of the St. Marys River in Bryceville, North Florida. We are a family-owned property, and when we say that, we mean it. This land is where we live, where we farm, and where we are building something we hope will outlast us.

The centerpiece of the property is a custom cypress log home built in 2008: 4,114 square feet of interior living space with soaring cathedral ceilings, two stone fireplaces, heart pine floors throughout, and 3,913 square feet of covered wrap-around porches that look out over sweeping pastures and old-growth forest. It is the kind of place that feels immediately familiar, like somewhere you have always wanted to be.

When you book River & Roots Ranch, you have the entire property to yourselves, all 246 acres, the lodge, the grounds, the river, and the silence that comes with being truly away from it all. Your ceremony can take place on the natural ceremony lawn backed by ancient trees. Your reception can spill across the porches, the pastures, or down to the river. There is no cookie-cutter layout here. The land shapes the day.

We include tables, chairs, and linens for up to 150 guests in every package. You bring your vision and your vendors, or let us connect you with our preferred team of North Florida photographers, florists, caterers, and more who know this property and love shooting here.

River & Roots is not just a venue. It is a place where your people can exhale, settle in, and actually be present for one of the most important days of your lives.

We would love to have you out to walk the land and see if it feels like home.

Best Venue Ever!!!

We got married at River and Roots Ranch, and I truly cannot say enough amazing things about this venue and the family behind it. From start to finish, everything was handled so seamlessly, it made what could have been a stressful process feel effortless and actually enjoyable.

The family who runs River and Roots Ranch is incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect. You can feel how much they care, and it shows in every detail. They were always responsive, helpful, and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly.

On the wedding day itself, everything flowed perfectly. The organization, timing, and coordination were flawless, which allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment without worrying about a single thing.

If you’re looking for a venue that is not only beautiful but also run by people who treat you like family and truly care about your experience, River and Roots Ranch is it. I would choose them over and over again.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
