From the reviews
Bethany and Chris are absolute pros! We chose Red Ridge for its scenic views, perfect size for our micro-wedding (40 people), inclusive package, and beautiful overall aesthetic. What we didn’t realize at the time was just how incredible Bethany, Chris, and the entire team would be.
This venue was absolutely perfect! We had our wedding in February 2022, of course it was in the 60's days before our wedding then on our day it dropped into the 30's. It was very cold but Chris, Bethany, and their whole team were wonderful in dealing with some slight changes because of the weather.
Our journey with Red Ridge began as driving past the sign for this gem for years. Little did I know that destiny had something extraordinary in store for us. From the moment we embarked on our wedding venue search, it was clear that Red Ridge was more than just a picturesque backdrop; it was a haven of warmth,…
Chris and Bethany were a joy to work with. Very friendly, very responsive, and always willing to answer our many questions we had over the course of the planning and very much willing to work with our plans.
Getting married at Red Ridge Receptions
Red Ridge Receptions comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
