    Historic Elegance Elevated for Wedding Weekend

    Paicines Ranch exceeded our expectations. Emily Skow and her team are so professional and adaptable to meet every need as well as being able to put our vision to life. PR transformed their historic barn into an elegant reception with all the fine details and touched we wanted. The food was very good. We were also able to host our rehearsal dinner at the brand new dining commons and host over 55 of our closest friends for a full wedding weekend! I highly recommend Paicines Ranch.

    Awesome Venue

    You can not go wrong having your wedding at the Paicines Ranch. It was beautiful, romantic and elegant. We were so please with all the amenities that they had to offer. From the beautiful back drop off over looking the hills and oak trees as you get married on the plush grass area with lots of plants around. The beautiful barn that we had our reception in was decorated so elegantly with lights hanging from the ceiling with white sheer material softening the feel. The Bride and Groom table was fixed up so beautiful with sheers on the background drop with lights behind them. The accommodations for the bar and all the guest along with the desert area was adorable.

    The accommodations were amazing with room to camp out, Glamping tents and rooms that are very inviting and adorable. The Grogan house was amazing as the bridal party was able to get ready with plenty of room.

    Emily Skow was so professional and helpful and took care of us like her own. Amazing ideas and suggestions and her staff was awesome as well. They helped us with what ever our needs were. She is one of the best wedding planner ever. She is kind and knowledgeable and was tentative all the time.

    This was one of the best weddings ever. Our guest could not say enough how awesome this wedding was.

    Love you Paicines Ranch and Emily Skow

    Beautiful country wedding

    We loved having our Wedding at Paicines Ranch. Fall was a beautiful time at the ranch with all the leaves changing, warm weather, and a cozy night.
    We were able to customize our decor and table settings for our personal touch. The bigger items like tables and chairs were included so that was great. We were able to set up our own items early and that made it easy so we could really enjoy our wedding weekend with guests and not worry about having a lot to do.
    There is on site catering so we had our rehearsal dinner and Sunday brunch at the Overlook. This was also so great to have one less thing to worry about.
    Emily and her wedding staff were amazing. They went above and beyond just being a wedding venue.

    Wonderful wedding beautiful venue

    My husband and I could not be happier with our experience here! Emily was seriously amazing and kept in touch with me about everything and answered all my questions. We were able to set up early which helped not having to stress about things being done on Saturday.
    The food was delicious and loved that everything was done in house. We got to pick our own menu and customize as needed. Rehearsal dinner was served on site in the new dining hall that has amazing views and a beautiful patio overlooking the hills.
    One of the biggest perks for us was many of our guests being able to stay onsite.
    I recommend this venue for a wedding of any size.

    The Vendor was so helpful and guided us through the process.

    We had such a wonderful time at the venue! The lodging was perfect, we still have family and friends comment on how wonderful it was to not worry about driving. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, was the perfect spot to have our daughter’s wedding. The staff was extremely attentive and so helpful! I can’t say enough about Emily Skow, she is such a wonderful lady, she literally walked us through everything, checked in on all timelines and always had answers to our questions. Planning a wedding is a lot but I really felt so relaxed knowing she had everything under control! We feel very blessed to have had our family and friends join us as our daughter and now son in law said “I Do”. Trust me you well not be disappointed ♥️

    Amazing venue, phenomenal team

    Paicines Ranch is a STUNNING property with tons of charm, and a phenomenal team!! Not to mention, you can have your family and friends stay on site making for a truly special wedding retreat experience. Working with Emily and her team was a pleasure—they were extremely helpful and present on the wedding day, always asking how they can help. Their food was exceptional and delightful desserts crafted by Paicines Ranch were a highlight for our clients and their guests. Without hesitation, we highly recommend this venue everyday of the week!!

    Beautiful venue and amazing service

    We had a gorgeous wedding at Paicines Ranch! It was nice getting ready with all my girls in the lovely Rose Cottage. My closest family and friends enjoyed having a place to stay on site. There were many perfect spots for pictures. The lawn was the perfect spot for the ceremony and the barn was perfect for the reception. I loved everything about this place and would highly recommend!

    Amazing Weekend Wedding Experience

    We wanted a venue that could lodge most of our wedding guests for the weekend, with good gathering spaces. Paicines Ranch fit the bill perfectly. The food was outstanding, including working with us to accommodate large numbers of vegetarian and vegan guests. There were perfect spots for game playing and hanging out, and the wedding lawn was beautiful. We are very happy with our choice.

    Dream come true

    Paicines Ranch and their staff went above and beyond to help make my wedding be the most magical day of my life so far! The venue is breathtaking! Having the option to stay on the property for the weekend made everything run so smoothly! If you love the country vibes then I don’t think you can find a better venue than Paicines Ranch! Mary and the rest of the staff were so efficient and very responsive. They are so sweet and friendly and made us feel so welcomed to be there! I would marry my husband a 100 more times if it meant I get to relive the day over and over! It was my wedding dreams come true!

    We are so happy that you and Jacob shared your special day with us - you two are such a beautiful couple and we wish you two a lifetime of happiness! Congratulations!

    My experience was smooth,

    Mary was amazingly responsive, helpful, and extremely kind throughout the entire process! She was very prompt at responding to emails, phone calls or text messages when necessary. She was thorough with the prices and very flexible in terms of visiting the property for various vendors. Overall we loved the venue and our guests did as well. Many of our guests stated it was the best wedding venue they have been to.

    Thank you Briahnna, you and your family were so wonderful and your wedding was absolutely beautiful! I wish you and Dustin much love and happiness!

    Absolutely Beautiful!

    We fell in love with this venue several years ago when our friends got married there. We enjoyed the convenience of allowing our guests to stay the night at the venue without having to go too far especially since the venue is a little out there. Since visiting the venue as guests at a wedding, we had heard of several upgrades that had been made since then and have continued to make throughout the years. The venue itself is beautiful and the scenery is gorgeous. All of our guests fell in love with the venue and even thought that they might have a festivity, like their family reunion, at the venue. I could not have asked for a better place to get married.

    Great Ranch Wedding

    Paicines was is great, staff was easy to work with and it was a beautiful facility. Especially for a girl like me who has horses and wanted the for “ranch style/ rustic wedding”. We use the barn for our reception and everyone absolutely loved the facility, I highly recommend them.

    Paicines Ranch

    Mary was so wonderful to work with! I had a zillion questions, and sometimes asked them more than once, and she was always so quick to respond. She was flexible and offered wonderful recommendations.

    The venue is stunning and offers such a variety of sceneries, accommodations and settings that can make it a one stop shop. If you choose to have both your ceremony and reception there it is the ideal location.

    The Grogan House was the perfect setting for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready for the day and/or rent for the night. In addition to the Grogan House, there is plenty of space for overnight accommodations for the wedding party and guests in a peaceful rustic setting.

    I highly recommend this venue for your wedding or any special occasion!

    Paicines Ranch's reply:

    Thank you, Sonja! It was such a pleasure to work with you and your family! I am so grateful to have such amazing brides and grooms and the Paicines Ranch and we are so grateful for you! Congratulations to Dustin and Briahnna! ❤️

    Gorgeous, tucked away venue

    We had our wedding at Paicines Ranch about a month ago at the end of Oct 2018. The venue is overflowing with beautiful trees of all varieties, birds, and that rustic farm feel (but with all the modern comforts). We took over the ranch event center for a weekend and booked out all their lodging for our guests (managed to fit 70!). We hosted our rehearsal dinner and two brunches behind the Grogan House, had our ceremony on the Grogan lawn, and wedding reception in the event barn. The ranch also has a variety of rentals available for use. Mary and the event center team were extremely responsive during the whole planning process whenever any questions came up. Even on the weekend of, a couple of the houses had issues occur (e.g. fire alarm going off, hot water not working) but they were all resolved very quickly. The event center staff worked closely with our caterer/planners and the wedding, not to mention the entire weekend, went seamlessly. Thank you so much to the Paicines Ranch team!

    Absolutely Magical!

    Getting married at Paicines Ranch was an absolutely magical experience. From the stunning ranch landscape featuring historical buildings, silos, and rolling oak-studded hills that painted that landscapes to the charismatic, delightful, and incredibly helpful events crew (Mary is a gem), this venue has it all! To top it off, it's a working ranch tackling regenerative agriculture and they aligned with my values and eco wedding. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful wedding and exceptional venue that went above and beyond to make my wedding unforgettable.

    Best Day Ever

    We had our wedding here June 16, 2018. Everything was absolutely amazing. We held our rehearsal dinner on Friday having food catered in and we set up on the back stage area. The only suggestion for having anything outside is to have heaters for your guests. It did get a little chillier than we expected. Communicating with the staff at Paicines was super easy and everything was set up for us when we got there on Friday to finish the decor. We had over 60 people stay on site for the weekend. It was so convenient to have the wedding party, family, and close friends around to help out with everything and not have to worry about driving after the reception. I was able to assign cottages to each person and Paicines took care of the rest! I will say the cell service was very spotty. I have Tmobile and did not receive any of my phone calls or messages unless I was in the Grogen House or the barn. After the reception was over we were able to hang out outside the barn and have a bonfire with the group that stayed on site. Overall, our experience here was perfect. We had so many compliments from our family and guests and several mentioned wanting to return for a reunion in the future. I would highly suggest Paicines Ranch to anyone looking for a goreous facility and friendly staff to work with for your event!

    Paicines Ranch was a fantastic venue! It was not only beautiful for our outdoor wedding ceremony, it was also amazing for the barn reception. Mary was amazing and was readily available for our questions and concerns and always willing to meet us for additional walk-thrus. They also had additional rental items to use for our event. Everything was set up earlier than expected and Erin was there the day of to make any last minute changes to ensure everything was perfect. The beauty of the ranch made for incredible photos and the sunset was just stunning! Our daughter's wedding had a perfect combination of location, weather, family, and friends! I would highly recommend Paicines Ranch to anyone wanting the best of the best!

    We had such an amazing weekend with our family and friends during our April 28th, 2018 wedding at Paicines Ranch. The ranch is gorgeously breathtaking during the spring and everyone who attended our wedding fell in love with the place, just as we did. We couldn't have chosen a better location or time of year for our big day.

    The vent Manager, Mary, was very friendly, prompt and professional in her responses to me during the entire to booking process of the ranch. She allowed us to come onsite late in the afternoon, last minute, to check out the property and allowed us to take our time looking at all the guest accommodations, for our wedding guests. She never once made us feel hurried or rushed as we decided if the location would work for our needs.

    Once we committed to having our wedding on property, Mary went above and beyond her regular duties to ensure I had everything I needed for our big day. She even helped me secure a few of our vendors, with recommendations for the DJ and photographer, which we ended up using (and who were amazing). Mary's passion for the property and her love of her job shines through in everything she does. The property speaks for itself, but Mary is the added sparkle it needs to really shine.
