Absolutely Amazing venue

Hands down the absolute best choice we made for our wedding venue! The ceremony and reception areas were perfect for our Boho country wedding! Easily accommodated 100 guest and plenty of room for our food caterer and DJ! The owner - Gail Monk was so easy to work with, absolutely pleasant and beyond helpful with all aspects! I highly recommend this venue! You will not be disappointed

Monk Ranch is amazing

On April 15th, my husband and I were fortunate enough to have our wedding at the beautiful Monk Ranch in Dixon, California. The property was perfectly set up, creating an enchanting atmosphere for our special day. One of the highlights of our experience was working with Gail, who went above and beyond to make our wedding dreams come true.
Monk Ranch offers an idyllic and serene setting for any wedding celebration. The property is thoughtfully designed to accommodate both the ceremony and reception, providing ample space for guests to enjoy the stunning surroundings. We were particularly taken by the romantic ambiance created by the rustic elegance of the barn, which served as the perfect location for our reception.

Gail was an absolute pleasure to work with. From our first interaction, her dedication to making our wedding day flawless was evident. She was incredibly helpful and attentive, always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and ensure that every detail was perfectly executed. Her warm and friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease and allowed us to focus on celebrating our love.

Our guests were just as impressed with the venue and Gail's exceptional service. Many commented on the beautiful setting, the seamless organization of the event, and Gail's professionalism and genuine care for our wedding. It is clear that Gail and the Monk Ranch team are passionate about creating unforgettable experiences for couples and their loved ones.

Outdoor weddings

The Monk Ranch is a beautiful, rustic country setting located near Dixon, CA. I have photographed here several times. The intimate garden has lush green lawns and big trees for lots of shade. There is a birch arbor that can be used for the ceremony backdrop, a beautiful historic barn for your reception, and lots of wonderful locations on the property for photos. Fantastic location for a country wedding!
