Deborah M. Sent on 12/28/2023Above and beyond our expectations! Very grateful for their personal attentiveness to our specific needs. Loved the venue, decorations, and atmosphere.
The venue was unique and beautiful...exactly what we wanted! Not only was the main room perfect for the group we had attending, the other areas were icing on the cake! The layout of the facilities made our event run smoothly and the use of the indoor and outdoor areas felt like we had our own private estate! Even our photography was gorgeous due to the backdrop. Everything was beyond our expectations. Highly recommend! -

The Holts are amazing people! The whole wedding experience was a dream and we couldn’t have done it without them.
C bar ranch is the best venue in town. It’s affordable, beautiful, quiet, and the owners are truly amazing people. -

Morgan Sent on 12/30/2022Amazing venue!
It is easy to see that this venue is STUNNING but its the people who run this venue that make it EXTRAORIDNARY! The responsiveness from our initial contact stood out to be better than any other venue we contacted and as soon as we met Ray and Nanette and began discussing what we wanted it was clear that they would go above and beyond for their couples and that proved true throughout the whole planning process and the wedding day! Nanette is amazing! SHe sent out check-lists to keep us on track and helped with the planning from beginning to end! She made this process so much easier and less anxiety inducing and I am so thankful for her because I would have forgotten so much!
March in Florida is unpredictable and this year it decided that it wanted to rain the whole week leading up to our wedding which made everything soggy. On the night of the rehearsal dinner, on which it was still raining, after valeting the vehicles for my bridal party and family we came up with a rain approved plan-b and Ray offered to go get terf so my bridesmaids would have a solid place to stand if we were able to have the ceremony outside. They say rain on your wedding day is good luck well the morning of mine it stormed (tornados and all!) and Nanette, Ray and Renata (our wedding planner) were very patient with me in waiting for the rain to stop and things to hopefully dry up some because we really wanted to have the ceremony on that beautiful dock and it did! Also, because the parking area was still soggy Nanette, Ray and their family provided valet for our guests!
So many wonderful things I could say but I would end up writing a novel but in the end the people and details make a difference and with this venue they excelled at both!C Bar Ranch's reply:
It was truly such a joy to be a part of your wedding, planning and beautiful, joyful celebration. We’re so glad you were able to have your dream day, despite the unusually wet weather. In the end, everything was perfect and your guests had such a great time. It was an honor for us to be part of it all. Thank you so much for the kind words. It means the world to us to know you were truly happy. -

I could spend days telling you how fabulous this venue is, but I could spend years telling you how incredibly amazing the owners are. Ray and Nanette treated not only the bride and groom as family, but every single one of our guests and all of the bridal party members as one of their own. They were always readily available in the year leading up to our wedding and really wanted to make our dreams come true. They take so much pride in what they do and it fills their hearts to see their customers smile. They thought of everything in designing the facility and are always searching for opportunities to improve. They took time to get to know us personally and allowed us to express ourselves in the most intricate details.
Trust me, I did a lot of research before even visiting the location. The amount of support you get, no to mention the accessibility, and the amount of time...for the price....incredible! I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Absolutely no regrets! We fell in love with the rustic elegance of the venue, but were instantly charmed by the relationship Ray and Nanette share. They are truly best friends and work together beautifully as a team. If you're considering this venue, don't hesitate....you won't find anything better.C Bar Ranch's reply:
It's hard to even find the words to respond to such a sweet review. Your wedding was pure magic, and we were honored to be part of it. Everyone looked like royalty, and your photos look like styled shoots for bridal magazines. But infinitely more importantly, the whole weekend overflowed with joy, and the thoughtfulness that went into every detail was just epic. It was such a pleasure getting to know all of you throughout the process, and we feel we've gained lifelong friends. Blessings to the Dixons! -

Beyond Excellent
C Bar Ranch is so much more than just a wedding venue! The owners are the nicest people you will ever meet. They will do everything they possibly can to make your wedding day perfect! C Bar Ranch is BEAUTIFUL and everywhere is picture perfect. I have the most gorgeous wedding photos from their beautiful venue. I am so thankful for C Bar Ranch and all their help making my wedding day dreams comes true. If I could do it all again I wouldn’t change a thing. I had a dream team of vendors that many were recommendations from C Bar Ranch! I can’t recommend C Bar Ranch enough!! My guests couldn’t believe how beautiful everything is there. The bridal and groom suites were amazing too! They were the biggest suites I had ever seen at a venue and I’ve been to many venues for friends weddings. All my vendors loved being there and my guests were constantly complimenting everything!! C Bar Ranch is perfect in every way! I can’t recommend this gorgeous venue enough!C Bar Ranch's reply:
Well, first, and most importantly, you are an angel and Dustin is not only blessed, but also, a wonderful guy. So being part of your wedding was a dream!
There were times during your planning that you encountered worries and challenges due to the pandemic, but you powered through like a champ. And what a beautiful reward! So many people had the joy and fun of celebrating with you two. (And the pranksters! Dinos on the dance floor. Wedding crashers on lead ropes, dressed for a double-ceremony. And more.) So much beauty, emotion and fun. It was just an honor to be a part of it all. Thank you for trusting us with this all-important milestone in your family history. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. It means the world. Love y'all! -

Being a part of your wedding was an absolute joy! Thank you so much for choosing to celebrate with us. It was an honor. There were so many things to love about your wedding weekend. But seeing you two so happy and surrounded by so much love was the absolute best. We hope to stay in touch with you so we can see your beautiful family grow.

Little Wedding
Nanette & Ray made the entire process fabulous and stress free! They were committed to my vision and very flexible and helpful through the whole process. They keep the property pristine and their level of service is a 10/10. I would highly recommend them. We used the full service and unlike most venues, the place is yours all weekend. Our guests are still commenting on much fun they had and how much they loved the venue.C Bar Ranch's reply:
It was an absolute joy for our family to work with you and yours. You have impeccable taste, and it was a blast for us to help execute your vision. You designed so many details that made your guests feel comfortable and appreciated — how could they not love it? Let’s have a replay on your 50th! 😘 -

C Bar Ranch was the first venue that I visited, and Nanette and Ray gave an amazing tour of the facility to my fiancé and I. They have a way of making you feel like part of their family. After our tour, we had plans to check out other venues, but we truly felt as though we would not find anything better in North Central Florida. C Bar is a great mix of outdoor spaces plus a well air conditioned barn that is large enough for big weddings. We are so excited to have booked C Bar for our wedding day on January 16, 2021!C Bar Ranch's reply:
Aw, thank you for the trust you've placed in us. We can't wait to help you celebrate your love and devotion to each other, surrounded by friends and family. We know we'll enjoy planning the details with you and then seeing all that hard work pay off with a beautiful, meaningful, joyful wedding day! -

Carrie S. Sent on 07/20/2020Absolutely Wonderful Wedding Venue
We greatly appreciate everything C Bar Ranch did to make our wedding day that much more memorable! We got married on July 11 and it went wonderfully! The owners are amazing and made sure to make our wedding extra-special. They go above and beyond and are there to help out with whatever is needed. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and it took my breath away each time I was there. There are so many beautiful spots for photos. Our guests continually told us how beautiful it was and everyone enjoyed themselves. It was the perfect place for us to have our ceremony and reception as we start our lifetime of love together.C Bar Ranch's reply:
Thank you, Carrie and Joe! We were so honored you chose us to be part of your wedding celebration, and it was absolutely beautiful. There were so many special details, including your sweet choice to wear your mother’s wedding gown, and that exit in the rip-roaring pink fire truck with lights and sirens! We so enjoyed seeing your guests have an absolute blast celebrating your love for each other. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for you two. -

Natalie A. Sent on 08/23/2020You are in good hands at C Bar!
The venue is absolutely gorgeous. Whatever you need, it is already there. Ray and Nannette designed a wedding venue that encompasses every bride/grooms needs! They were very easy to communicate with, sent us reminders to keep us on track, and made us feel loved like family. It was a weight off our shoulders knowing they would set up the venue, exactly how we discussed. And they would be there to help troubleshoot problems with our coordinator. In all honesty, we had zero worries the day of the wedding. You are in good hands at C Bar!
Ceremony Site: There are so many sites to choose from that can accommodate a large number of guests! We chose to have our arbor placed underneath two large oak trees, with pine trees in the background. I don’t fair well with ants, so Ray took the time to spray and groom the area before the big day. The setup was absolutely perfect! We chose to have the white chairs, since we had older guests, but the venue offers gorgeous wooden benches!
Reception Area: Inside the barn we were able to give the band a large stage area, leaving plenty of space for the dance floor (groom needs ample room to dance!). There was plenty of space to put 12 guest tables, using both rectangular and circular tables. There was space for 3 buffet tables, 1 dessert table, 3 tables for guest signing, decorations, pictures of us, photo booth, and so much more! Trust me, whatever you want at your wedding, there will be space for it! Ray and Nanette had the venue set up the night before, so we could go in and adjust as needed. And the acoustics are great for a live band!!
Suites: The bride suite was more than spacious and accommodated all my ladies (9 in bridal party, plus 2 stylists) with ease. My stylists also loved the venue! Since they had ample work space with 3 beauty chairs, mirrors, and plenty of lighting. The boys and pup (yes they are dog friendly!) hung out in the groom suite which was equipped with leather chairs, gaming consoles, and a tv. These suites provide many other goodies, but I’ll let that be future bride/groom surprises!
Bathrooms: The women's room was a hit!! Why? The fireplace and the couches! We used the first room as a quiet space for guests to relax. The bathrooms are also cutely decorated and always clean!
Kitchen: It is fully equipped for caterers! Which was great, since all our caterers for rehearsal, bridal party lunch, and the wedding day foods/cakes were able to store food/utilize it. An added bonus is the massive refrigerators! Ray and Nanette allowed us to store our DIY wedding day flowers for a few days so they wouldn’t wilt. The flowers were gorgeous the day of!
Outside space: Guests had a blast at the fire pit, playing games provided by C Bar, and roasting marshmallows. We loved that the corn hole game was customized for us! There is plenty of space to host rehearsal dinner outside (we did by the pond), and then have cocktail hour/hangout by the bonfire. Having a full weekend at C Bar was a dream since many events can take place at different locations onsite. Guests were never bored!

Laurel W. Sent on 03/13/2020Perfect Wedding at C Bar Ranch!
My husband and I were just married at C Bar Ranch and we couldn't have chosen a better place! We picked this venue because of how helpful and kind the owners are. Also we loved all of the décor that their couples get to use. Nanette and Ray are the most accommodating people and go above and beyond to well exceed your expectations! My wedding was picture perfect and it couldn’t have gone any better thanks to them. I chose to have Nanette coordinate my wedding, since I knew she would know best what works well at their venue. Her wedding planning skills and passion for planning are very apparent. Nanette helped to coordinate a beautiful, large wedding with many details for me in just four months. They are just so extremely helpful. On our wedding night, I got a large stain on my dress (a bride’s nightmare!) Within minutes, the owners had already run to their house and returned with peroxide for me to get out the stain. I have been so happy that I chose this venue and I’ve received so many compliments for what a beautiful place that we got married. You won’t regret having your big day here!!C Bar Ranch's reply:
This means more to us than you know. We had a lot to do to get the planning done in four months. But you were a ROCK STAR BRIDE and everything came together to be so incredibly beautiful and was so fun for your guests. We consider you lifelong friends now, and we can't wait to see what the future holds for you and John! Cheers to the McGinnesses! -

Jennifer V. Sent on 10/02/2020This is the place!
We could not have been happier with our wedding at CBar!
The property is very large and open with plenty of space for anything you could need. It is very quiet and peaceful on the ranch, no noisy neighbors or busy roads to distract from your special day.
They offer multiple locations for ceremony to suit your taste. We chose the pond location, as it’s close by the barn and easily accessible for some of our older guests, plus you can’t beat the view looking over the water!
The reception area was spacious and beautiful. We had around 120 guests and there was more than enough space, even with the band and large dance floor.
All of that being said, the best thing about C Bar is Ray and Nanette. They consistently went above and beyond our expectations in every way. From Planning, to set up and tear down to making sure that every aspect of our special day went as smoothly as possible. Genuinely good people who want to do anything they can to make your day perfect. -

Amazing venue and owners
Just wanted to say how thankful and blessed Taylor And I are for choosing such an amazing venue, and such attentive owners of the venue. I knew that first day when I went to visit that venue was the ONE, I knew that was where I wanted Taylor and I to make a commitment for a lifetime there was never a doubt in my mind, and you both blew my mind with how kind and always so on the ball you both are. You genuinely care about taking care of your guests and making the BIG DAY SOOOO SPECIAL. You have always been there when I needed you, and you are both truly so special! I will recommend you and your venue for as long as I can, because everyone deserves to have the care you both have offered. Thanks again seriously for everything!!! It was perfect!!!C Bar Ranch's reply:

Nicole Sent on 01/21/2019CBAR was the perfect venue---more than we could have ever hoped for!
We feel so incredibly lucky to have had our wedding at CBAR Ranch--from the breathtakingly beautiful setting (so quiet! so many trees! such a gorgeous barn!), to the better-than-I-could-have-ever-hoped-for owners (Nanette & Ray, the kindest, most thoughtful, generous people!), to the tons of decor that was free to borrow for brides & grooms (so helpful for us planning from out of town!), everything was perfect! We knew from the moment we drove out there that CBAR was a special place, and that kept getting reinforced with every interaction we had with Ray & Nanette, and every visit we took out there. Ray & Nanette are super professional and organized, and are 100% committed to helping you have the very best day. They communicate with all your vendors and your planner, set out all the tables/chairs/decor/furniture how you would like, provide a beautiful, comfortable space for all of your vendors and your guests, and EVEN bring you and your new husband cocktails while you take photos in the grass under the mossy trees (thanks again, Ray!!)! It made such a huge difference (and helped a ton with planning stress!) to know that the owners of our venue were so invested in our wedding, which I can imagine is not a common thing! We felt like the luckiest couple ever to have been able to host our loved ones at CBAR Ranch for our big day---everyone LOVED it and we had an incredible time. The kids even got to see (and maybe even feed?!) the goats! Thank you so much, Ray and Nanette!! We will cherish our memories of CBAR for years to come.C Bar Ranch's reply:
Aw, this review is so special. We thank you for coming halfway across the country to celebrate here with us. You planned an amazing celebration, even though you were far away. Everyone had a blast, and all the guests were delightful. Yes, we did feed treats to goats and cows with some of them, and not just kids! LOL. We were so, so thankful to be part of your wedding. Please keep us in the loop on the incredible adventures we know lie ahead for the two of you.
