Wedding Venue Of Your Dreams

If you’re even questioning which venue to book for your wedding, trust that you are getting what you hope for and then some if you choose Tar Creek Ranch. The grounds are beautiful, the barn is stunning, exceptionally clean, and has all the amenities you could need. The barn has been thoughtfully upgraded to compliment any taste. You also have access to an incredible guesthouse onsite which was a dream for the wedding weekend! Not to mention the owner, Matthew, and the gal who arranges events at the venue, Christina, couldn’t be nicer and both are exceptional communicators! They get back to you promptly and were beyond helpful with making the day seamless. If you have Tar Creek Ranch on your “potential venue” list, do yourself a favor and scratch the rest of the list. You have a dream venue with Tar Creek!

Best wedding venue on the central coast

We literally had our DREAM wedding at Tar Creek Ranch. Rustic and elegant! Beautifully remodeled white barn for reception and lovely outdoor ceremony. Our wedding was around 180 guests who fit comfortably at the venue and raved about the beauty. My bridesmaids and I were able to stay and get ready at the house on the hill. The rental home is perfect and accommodated my 10 girls and I. The owner and wedding coordinator made this day and the months leading up to it as stress free as possible! We rented out the venue for the whole weekend and would recommend this location to anyone looking to get married on the central coast.

Amazing Venue!

We can’t express enough what an absolute beautiful setting Tar Creek Ranch provided for our wedding!

Matthew and his team at Tar Creek Ranch take the time to understand your wedding vision in order to provide every opportunity to make that vision come to life. We felt a unique amount of support, flexibility, and communication while planning our wedding from everyone involved at TCR. Everyone is incredible friendly and took wonderful care of us and our vendors throughout the whole wedding weekend!

Tar Creek Ranch offered such an elegant environment with their one of a kind reception space: a beautiful, immaculately restored barn with gorgeous lighting, plenty of space for tables and a dance floor, and a two way bar for our guests to enjoy drinks inside or on the patio space! Our guests could not stop complimenting how lovely and peaceful the venue was.
We were also incredibly thankful for the house on the property that allowed us to host our rehearsal dinner and was a place for our bridal party to have a comfortable place to sleep the night before and get ready for the day!

We were thrilled to have so many stunning locations on the property for wedding pictures that helped capture the landscape of our beautiful town that we both love so much.
We have so many incredible, priceless memories from our wedding day that were possible thanks to Tar Creek Ranch. We completely recommend Tar Creek Ranch for any event you need!
