Vintage Ranch

What can I say about this venue? It was absolutely amazing, the venue was breath taking! I couldn't picture being married anywhere else. The reception was under the big oak tree in the middle of the vineyards, and the reception at the barn. It was the perfect day. Sonja was great to work with and helped us with whatever we needed. We even stayed in the cutest cottage that they have for the newlyweds. I would definitely visit again!

We loved Vintage Ranch. The location is gorgeous. I could not have asked for a more perfect setting for our wedding. The tree in the vineyard is an absolute dream. The barn was stunning. The natural backdrop was superb. Friends and family could not get enough of taking photos. But what makes this venue particularly unique and wonderful, is Sonja. She is an absolute godsend to work with. Everything was stress-free, and she was always available to answer questions. She makes sure that your weekend occurs without drama and that you feel free to create your most imaginative setting. She will be your ally. She is passionate about hosting weddings on her property and therefore treats her clients with so much love and kindness. She has tons of gorgeous random decor in the barn that you can use anywhere on the property--which in our opinion is a big win because it makes the wedding industry more sustainable long term. Instead of buying a bunch of stuff you will never use again from Michael's, you get to repurpose all the awesome things that Sonja has collected over the years at her venue. It makes it easy to curate all those beautiful details without having to be wasteful, or even worry about dragging all your decor back with you the day after your wedding. Planning our wedding there felt like planning it at a family member's property. It was so warm and welcoming. We adore Sonja and look forward to visiting her, and Vintage Ranch, again sometime in the future!! We thank her from the bottom of our hearts for such a memorable experience.

When we decided to get married in Paso Robles instead of Chicago, we had very specific must-haves for our wedding venue. As a result, when we did our venue expedition we ended up visiting 8+ venues in the span of 3 days. But once we stepped foot onto Vintage Ranch and met Sonja Lockshaw, we knew our search was over and that we would not have to compromise on a thing.
Vintage Ranch is a special place. No…it’s a magical place. If you want a wedding venue that is unique, gorgeous, enhances one’s appreciation for the Paso area and is essentially a blank canvas for a bride/groom to let their imaginations run wild, Vintage is your spot. There are two distinct areas at Vintage - the 100+ year old barn where most receptions are held in front or back of, and the 350+ year old oak tree about ¼ mile into the vineyard where wedding ceremonies take place. We knew we found the spot where we’d become husband and wife when we stood together under the oak tree, found ourselves surrounded by our favorite varietals, could only hear the wind and had a clear picture of the perfect day that awaited us at Vintage.
Vintage, for us, has become so much more than our wedding venue. It’s become part of us and our story. The reason for this deeper meaning is because of the owner, Sonja Lockshaw. To say Sonja is an incredibly kind, passionate, professional and giving person would be doing her a disservice. From the moment we met Sonja we knew we found someone who would not only guide us through the wedding process but would be a forever friend. We could go on and on about her attention to detail, knowledge of her business and ability to accommodate every crazy idea that came into our heads. Instead, know that the love Sonja has for Vintage and her brides/grooms is 100% genuine and you can feel it. Sonja is Vintage and Vintage is Sonja. And, if you are fortunate enough to have your wedding at this magnificent place, Sonja and Vintage become part of your fiber, too.
Like we said…MAGIC!
