What is the story behind The Red Earth Venue?
Situated in Moab, Utah, in the heart of canyon country, The Red Earth Venue is a unique and intimate destination for wedding celebrations. The 17-acre estate is set amidst red-rock cliffs and a breathtaking desert landscape. The founders are former photographers and park rangers who established this alternative venue to promote sustainability and minimize disruption to the natural environment. They wish to provide couples with an off-the-beaten-track wedding destination. Nature-loving couples and adventurous, outdoorsy types will delight in this intimate ceremony and reception site.
Facilities and Capacity
The Red Earth Venue is surrounded by spectacular views in every direction, including the Canyonlands National Park and Arches National Park. This remote location offers both indoor and outdoor spaces for your entire wedding journey, from engagements and rehearsal dinners to the main event. Outdoor ceremonies take place under a romantic boho-chic arch against a backdrop of earthy cliffs and rugged terrain that is perfect for post-nuptial photoshoots. Afterward, guests can mingle and celebrate under the sun and enjoy a relaxed meal at rustic wooden tables. Ambient string lights hang over the elevated wooden dance floor, where newlyweds and their loved ones can dance under the stars. From 2022, the purpose-built pavilion is also available so that couples can enjoy a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces. This 1,800-square-foot banquet hall boasts a modern and minimal aesthetic, with full-length windows that overlook the exquisite landscape and maximize natural light.
Services Offered
The Red Earth Venue is truly committed to curating memorable and meaningful events for couples and their guests. This venue is suited to intimate gatherings and elopements and offers event rentals and pet-friendly facilities. You can work with outside vendors of your choice for all of your catering, entertainment, and decor needs. The dedicated team provides chairs and tables for all events. Exclusive rentals of this venue conclude at midnight, and members of the in-house team take care of breakdown and cleanup.

Highly recommend for the BEST wedding ever!
We had an intimate wedding with about 45 of our closest family and friends. We loved that the venue has an indoor-outdoor feel and with a smaller guest count still felt just right! We could not imagine our wedding anywhere else. Working with the Red Earth team was seamless and they were there to offer many recommendations along the way. They also have an amazing assortment of rental items that they continue to expand, which is great especially for destination weddings! We CAN’T thank them enough for such an amazing place to say I do!

A Dream Wedding Among Moab's Red Rocks at Red Earth Venue
The Red Earth Venue is absolutely stunning and the perfect setting for anyone dreaming of an outdoor wedding surrounded by the beautiful red rocks of Moab.
The venue comfortably accommodated our large party of 150 guests. Although the building looks small from a distance, it is surprisingly spacious inside, with plenty of room for everyone to move around comfortably.
The one thing we felt the venue was missing was a bridal suite and a separate space for the groom and groomsmen. Fortunately, we had our motorhome available to use as the bridal suite. Adding a bridal suite would be a wonderful future investment. We were also surprised that drinking water was not provided, so we had to bring our own or pay an additional fee through the venue. Having drinking water available would be another helpful improvement.
Aside from those two things, everyone at Red Earth was very kind and wonderful to work with. We also hired an incredible wedding planner recommended by Red Earth, which was one of the best decisions we made! I wanted to spend the wedding day focusing entirely on my daughter rather than worrying about vendors, setup, or timelines, and our planner made that possible.
Overall we had a wonderful experience at Red Earth Venue. I would recommend it over and over again, and I'm so grateful my daughter had the opportunity to get married in such a breathtaking and meaningful place.

Gorgeous venue nestled in the Red Rocks of Moab. 🧡
This venue… I don’t even know how to describe its beauty, its unique landscape, and the amazing folks who work there. Our wedding in October could not have been more perfect. We wanted to get married somewhere that was quintessential Utah, while also finding somewhere super unique that our friends and family could experience. I have had so many folks say how incredible the venue was in the weeks following our wedding. Its proximity to downtown Moab, as well as the National Parks (Arches/Canyonlands/Dead Horse) - you seriously cannot go wrong with Red Earth Venue!

Amazing venue!
The Red Earth Venue was everything we could have imagined and MORE! All the furniture we rented was perfectly set up as we had discussed, they even had Matt on site who was extremely helpful the whole day! Most of our guests were from out of town and it was the PERFECT way to show off our home state of Utah- many people left saying it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to! Dancing under the stars was magical, I will always remember our wedding day as BEYOND perfect and that is thanks to the Red Earth Venue and their team:)

Stunning Venue
We had an amazing day at Red Earth for our wedding on May 31, 2025! The venue is absolutely stunning! We moved to Utah from Massachusetts, so most of our guests traveled from the New England area. They were so amazed at the backdrop of REV! We have gotten so many comments about how magical the venue was. We had a beautiful sunset, danced on the iron arches patio, and had a beautiful night sky full of stars. If you are thinking about booking a wedding at REV definitely do it!! Highly recommend booking Hannah as a wedding coordinator and Matt Davidson as your photographer. They made our day run so smoothly and know the venue so well!! Hannah broke down the planning process for us, gave us recommended vendors, created the layout and timeline, and stepped us through a very overwhelming process. She took over planning the month before our wedding and handled all of the vendor coordination! Our family and friends that interacted with Hannah during the wedding weekend had nothing but positive things to say! We felt totally at ease knowing that Hannah was there to handle anything that came up! She made the entire wedding process so much less stressful, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome! We highly recommend working with Hannah to make the entire wedding process and your wedding day as amazing as possible! We had 120 people at our wedding, and the attached photos are all from guests who attended. We loved all of our vendors and would highly recommend them!

It was a dream!
Red Earth was absolutely perfect for our wedding — truly the dream venue. The views are unbelievable no matter where you look, and the whole place just has this magical, grounded energy that made everything feel extra special. Because of the wind, we had our ceremony at the doorway (which turned out to be gorgeous and intimate), danced under the arch with the desert all around us, and had dinner inside the cozy indoor space. Everything flowed so naturally, and we honestly had the best time. Our guests were blown away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better setting.
Beyond how beautiful it was, the team at Red Earth was amazing. From the very beginning, they were so kind, responsive, and helpful. They not only made the process easy — they helped us find our dream team of vendors, from our wedding planner to our caterer and photographer. We felt supported every step of the way, and looking back, we wouldn’t change a thing. We’re so grateful we found this place and would absolutely recommend it to anyone getting married in Moab!

Our wedding day at The Red Earth Venue was PERFECT! If I could leave a 6 star review, I would!
We got married on March 29, 2025, and despite being just on the cusp of Red Earth's popular wedding season months, the weather was perfect!
We booked the venue without having seen it in person since we live in Florida and chose this venue for our intimate (roughly 45 guests) Moab destination wedding. We were blown away when we saw it in person!!! Our friends and family couldn't stop raving about the beautiful scenery and the uniqueness of the venue! We have zero complaints from our wedding day.
We decided to hire Hannah as our Day of Wedding Coordinator and truly we have no idea what we would've done without her! She was so kind and professional - and she knows her stuff! She was so helpful throughout the planning process and every vendor she recommended to us was amazing. Her and her team executed everything on the day of so smoothly. There was no point throughout the day of that we were stressed at all. We were able to be present and enjoy everything on our wedding day because we had such confidence in Hannah.
If you're debating a Moab wedding you WON'T regret having it at The Red Earth Venue!

Best Venue Ever!
We chose the Red Earth Venue for our destination wedding in Moab, Utah, and it was absolutely perfect! Being from the East Coast, we initially only saw the venue through photos, but it exceeded all our expectations. The space is truly incredible—our guests were blown away, and so were we.
A huge part of how smoothly everything went was working with vendors familiar with the venue. After selecting the Red Earth Venue, we partnered with our wedding planner (from Kosi Rentals) to choose vendors listed on their website. Every vendor we worked with was fantastic and professional. The venue clearly puts a lot of thought into curating vendors who not only provide exceptional services but also align perfectly with the space.
We also appreciated the multimedia resources on the venue's website, which provided excellent layouts to help us visualize the space. Additionally, we had the opportunity to visit for a brief tour before the wedding, and everyone we met at the venue was so warm and inviting.
The venue’s design is ideal not only for hosting a beautiful wedding but also for capturing breathtaking photos that showcase the stunning landscape. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—Red Earth Venue was everything we dreamed of and more!

You wont be disappointed!
We had the most magical wedding at the Red Earth Venue at the end of September! Since we couldn’t visit Moab ahead of time, we planned everything through our amazing vendors and by following the venue on Instagram and TikTok, which was incredibly helpful.
The Red Earth Venue provided us with a comprehensive list of trusted vendors, making it easy to choose the perfect ones for our day. We worked with Matt Davidson Photography, who was fantastic—he held several detailed calls with us, addressing all our questions about the photography and the venue itself.
For catering, we chose Moab Canyon Pizza Co., and thanks to a discount code from the venue, we were able to provide a delicious meal for our guests without breaking the bank. The Tipsy Trailer handled all our drink needs flawlessly, having worked at the venue multiple times before.
Our cake, created by Sweet Serendipity, was not only beautiful but absolutely delicious! The venue offers a variety of add-on services that helped make our wedding uniquely ours. Once we selected our add-ons, the team at Red Earth Venue took care of all the setup, ensuring everything was perfect for our big day.
In the end, everything went off without a hitch! Since returning home, our guests have been raving about the experience and wanting to relive it all over again. The only minor wish we had was for dedicated Groom and Bridal spaces to get ready, but it wasn't a deal breaker; we managed to prepare at our resort before heading to the venue.
Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better wedding experience at Red Earth Venue. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a stunning and seamless wedding!
