It's been 2 months since my 25th wedding anniversary & I can't believe it took me this long to review such a beautiful historical venue. My guests still talk about it to this day! Everything about Storybrook Ranch was incredible. Jennifer Voecks was the on site wedding coordinator. Couldn't have asked for anyone else, she has a great work ethic & a wonderful personality. We decided to rent the chapel with two greeters on horses. Pastor Scott & Tiffany Austin were amazing to work with, we felt like we had known them for years & the ceremony was perfect. Pastor Scott was nice enough to work with a Spanish speaking Pastor, so that I could have the bi-lingual ceremony that I wanted. We rented the saloon for cocktail hour with awesome, fun saloon girls & waitstaff serving appetizers. Storybrook Ranch took care of the food & do not regret it, the appetizers & BBQ dinner they provided were delicious! The reception waitstaff & bartenders always had a smile on their faces. Just an amazing way to celebrate my anniversary! The details! My family is now wanting to do a family reunion at Storybrook! I would recommend this venue for anyone who's looking for an incredibly fun & rustic venue. AMAZING!

My Wedding at Storybook Ranch was like a wedding from a fairytale. It's an enchanting venue and I would recommend it to anyone. Not only were they very friendly and professional, they really cared that my big day was special for me. I loved all the details from the chandelier in the opry house to the horse drawn carriage. I really enjoyed working with Jen. I know she's very busy, but she made it seem like my wedding was her top priority. I also liked how many different services and packages they offered.

The venue nice and rustic as I had hoped for my wedding event. My guests seemed to really enjoy themselves and were able to explore the old western town while we took wedding photos. Jen at the Storybook Ranch was very professional and remained calm at all times! :)

It's ways hard to pick the one place you decide you have your special wedding day, but we wouldn't have picked a better place! We really enjoyed ourselves, and had the picture perfect wedding we have always wanted!

Venue was Gorgeous!!! Love the Old Western Town. All of my guests raved about how this was the most unique and gorgeous wedding they had ever been too. They could not stop talking about how neat it was to have the wedding in an old western town. Which was complete with a Jail house for the kids to play in, Pony rides and even a petting zoo. The kids and adults ALL loved it!

We were very happy with the service and pricing. Jen and her helpers did a great job making sure we were taken care of. All our guests were suprised on how nice the landscape and detail was during and after our ceremony. I'm glad we chose Storybook.

The was absolutely the most perfect place for my wedding! Jen, the wedding coordinator, was just the sweetest and great and easy to work with! My husband and I love that this place is a charity because when your spending quite a bit of money on a wedding it might as well go towards helping special needs children! This place was just an all around GREAT place for the perfect wedding! :)

Such a fun wedding!. We held my daughter's wedding and reception at Storybook Ranch. The venue was so different and just beautiful. Food was terrific. Service was impeccable. Jen, the Coordinator, was so helpful. The DJ that they recommended was absolutely perfect. So funny and great music. Honestly, the only thing I was a bit miffed over is that we definitely over ordered on food and I would have liked to have taken some of that brisket home as it was delicious! but alas, we were not able to do that according to the Caterer. I would definitely recommend Storybook Ranch for any event.

The only real drawback, was the lighting of the sign by the road. Several quests said they could not the place because they could not see the sign in the dark.

I'm getting married soon, and have been (of course) searching for just the perfect venue. Storybook Ranch is such a cool place. It has so much amazing history to it. But, this review is a five star rating, simply because of the event manager, Cameron. You can just tell that he adores this place, and his love for what he does is inspiring. He made me want to have an event there just because of his enthusiasm. He is a joy to work with, exceptionally prompt and good natured. I look forward to having future events here.

We had a large group of children with adults at the ranch on Father's Day 2012, and there were too few horses for 'us' to ride. Thus, we still had people waiting in line to ride, 1.5 to 2 hours after the end of the event.

Otherwise, we had a wonderful afternoon at Storybook Ranch.

We are extremely pleased with the entire process of our wedding, and are so thankful that Jen was our support staff. There were two very minor disappointments (availability to see the venue in the summer months and the dinner serving line at the wedding ceremony). We were told it would be buffet style, but the cook would not let anyone serve themselves on the meat and the serving line lasted about an hour. Although it was disappointing, it was still a very fun ceremony and we have no regrets about the venue or having Jen coordinate everything for us. She is absolutely WONDERFUL and we have already recommended the venue to several of our friends who live near it. Thank you.

We were definitely disappointed about quite a few things. These were things that we agreed on, that were not fulfilled: There was not a runner and it had rained the previous night so my dress was filthy, the food and dessert weren't sent home with my mother and at times there was no one at the entrance or the office directing the guests (I had someone walk in on me in my underwear because they didn't know where to go, along with three other guests). We had guests leave because it was freezing when they had mentioned heaters being an option if it got cold and we requested a projector and screen and neither of those were there. My Dad spent a lot of time on a slide show that he just was not able to play. The venue was very strict about simple things like providing our own food and fees on outside catering and alcohol were outrageous when alcohol was not included. The venue coordinator was constantly making excuses about things we had to do through them as if to make more money and then when we did finally pay we couldn't get a hold of her. Everything we asked, it was as if we were a hassle.

I tried several times to get ahold of a representative for this venue for pricing and all. I thought it would be great for my storybook wedding but no one emailed or called me back.
