Amazing Experience!!!

Cannot recommend this venue enough. Not only is the venue so stunningly beautiful, but the staff (Jessica, Derek, and Josie) went above and beyond to make sure all of our questions were answered and everything went smoothly day of the wedding. Despite the venue being owned by a company with multiple venue sites, the experience did not feel corporate or cookie cutter at all. Staff was extremely responsive and more than happy to work with us to make sure our vision came to life. I will also add the despite only being provided with a “day of coordinator,” there is so much support and guidance along the way that a wedding planner wouldn’t have even been needed. We couldn’t have been any happier with our experience and HIGHLY recommend the Old Rancho to anyone looking for an outdoor venue.

Wedding venue of dreams!

The Old Rancho wedding estate was the most perfect, dreamiest venue we could’ve asked for! The venue space is intimate and so beautiful, it was a dream come true. So many of our wedding guests gave compliments of the space and that it was such a fun time. Thank you to the Old Rancho and Personally Touch Dining teams for making our wedding day so special!
