Great May 2024 Wedding at Little Hills!

My wife and I hosted our wedding at Little Hills and it was a really great experience for us — and for our guests. From the venue tour all the way up through the wedding day, the Little Hills staff were clear and friendly when communicating, took time to listen and get to know us and what we wanted out of our wedding, and just generally very easy to work with. Little Hills Events can be quite flexible based on what you want, ranging from having food, beverage, and a lot of decorations available in-house to allowing outside vendors or BYO. The venue itself is beautiful, with multiple options for ceremony sites and a nice reception area that is tented but still feels fresh and part of the natural environment. Our wedding was in late May and the weather was lovely, with the hills still green and super pleasant temperatures. Overall we are so happy with our wedding and couldn’t imagine it being anywhere else!

Gorgeous site with all that we were looking for

Little Hills was the perfect, nature-oriented wedding site we were looking for! It was unique, secluded/private, large, and every direction was an absolutely stunning backdrop. Working with Lindsey and her team was as smooth as one could ever hope. She was professional, understanding, and extremely flexible - a prime example is she entertained my idea to use the dunk tank (which we did with great success)! In a time of stressful planning, we were lucky to have Lindsey and the Little Hills site.

Little Hills made our wedding incredible!

Our experience with Little Hills was amazing.

After a frustrating few months of talking to venues who were rude, unresponsive, and whose costs were vastly different from their websites, we finally found Little Hills Ranch on WeddingWire. When we reached out to them, they were immediately responsive, friendly, helpful, and were absolutely transparent in their costs. Everything on their website is true! When we toured the venue, we fell in love with the beautiful nature setting and the really nice reception tent and other facilities.

Lindsey worked with us to plan a wedding in just 4 months of time from the date we booked the venue. She was incredibly helpful in guiding us in the areas we needed help with, and also allowing for our own vision and ideas to come true. Lindsey and her team worked behind the scenes with all of our vendors and made sure that absolutely nothing slipped through the cracks. We were also so pleased that Little Hills has all of the furniture and table settings themselves, and that we didn't have to get any separate rentals.

When the day of the wedding came, I was beyond amazed by how well Lindsey and her team handled everything. They set up all of the furniture, decorations, etc. and all we had to do was show up. We had an incredible time and knew everything was in good hands.

Little Hills Ranch was our absolute dream venue. There is not a single thing I would change. I will recommend them to EVERYONE. Thank you, Lindsey, for everything you did!!

A Dream Come True! ⭐️

Our experience with Little Hills was beyond exceptional! From start to finish, Lindsey and her team helped answer our questions and made us feel so confident through this entire process. If we were to do it all over again, we would absolutely still choose Little Hills 😊

Amazing people and beautiful venue!

Lindsey and her team were extremely responsive to all our questions and made sure to be available for us when wanted to visit the site. The venue itself was beautiful - even though it was going through some renovations a couple months before our wedding date, Lindsey made sure to send us updates and let us know what it'd look like. Never did we feel stressed or worried about our venue. She even took care of some of the decor and communications between our vendors, including our photographers and caterer. We did both the reception and ceremony at Little Hills - parking was no issue with the Little Hill's parking lot that fit 200 guests. Got many compliments from our guests how beautiful the wedding was. We highly recommend Little Hills!

Amazing Venue and Wedding Service Company

We got to be the first event for Palmdale Estate Events at the Ranch at Little Hills...they have been in the business for a long time but just recently added this venue to their portfolio. As it was new we were a bit worried....No need. Clare and Lindsey were amazing. Helping with details we didn't even know to ask. It was clear they were experienced and professional. The wedding day went down without a hitch. Everything went perfectly. The venue was set up perfectly and looked amazing. Claire was there every step of the way. Constantly reminding us where we needed to be and what the next steps were. All our venders, which were recommended by Lindsey were amazing. The DJ...the food...everything was great. Our guests all let us know what a great time they had. Hindsight, I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you so much Clarie and Lindsey, Lindsey's Husband....and all the great staff! You rock!

Beautiful, Unique Venue

Planning a wedding during COVID was definitely a challenge, but Angie and her team were amazing. When we needed to push our wedding out a year, Angie worked with me to update the contract. Angie was an amazing day of coordinator. She kept the event on schedule, brought us drinks and snacks during photos, and made sure we had plates to eat for dinner. Unfortunately, the park is changing management companies at the end of the month, but Angie and her Basecamp team were wonderful for our wedding!

Dream wedding, especially during pandemic!

We were the first wedding at this venue (May 2021) after the Covid shutdown. We are SO GRATEFUL to Angie and her team here for helping us put together our dream wedding! The venue is entirely outdoors so it felt totally safe. Angie was so professional and accommodating, bringing our vision to reality. The ceremony space in Wildcat Canyon is gorgeous, the food was delicious, and Angie coordinated with all our vendors to make sure everything went off without a hitch. Highly recommend this venue!!

Hidden Gem

We happened upon the Ranch to Little Hills completely by mistake, and afterwards, we did not care at all about seeing any other venues. RLH had everything we wanted and more. The food was good, the staff was on top of things and kind, and the venue is GORGEOUS. Our guests could not stop talking about it. Halfway through our wedding planning we ended up losing our wedding coordinator to another job, and RLH gave us another. Then the weather happened and the bridal suite ended up burning down. I was crazy with anxiety, but the new coordinator, Angela, she killed it and put all my stress at ease. What an amazingly wedding venue!

I took one look at the Ranch at Little Hills and immediately knew it was where I wanted to get married. My husband and I are outdoor lovers and the Ranch provided the perfect, beautiful, tranquil atmosphere that we wanted for our big day. Despite living all the way in Washington State, planning the wedding was so easy thanks to the help of our amazing and brilliant coordinator Gillian! She made sure we had every detail thought out and she was so accommodating to all of our needs. She even helped us to make a last-minute traditional Korean wedding ceremony possible at the venue the day before our wedding. Our whole wedding weekend was so magical and went exactly how my husband and I wanted it to, if not even better. We are so happy we were able to make such sweet memories at this place!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
