From the reviews
A seriously perfect venue for a MAGICAL wedding weekend. Gwen is absolutely incredible but was unable to be there for our wedding weekend. Reno was there all weekend helping us with WHATEVER we needed. All the staff were incredibly kind, helpful, professional, cool, fun, enthusiastic... I could go on!
If you’re looking for a rustic desert wedding, look no further. My wedding was everything I could have imagined, PLUS so much more. Now I want to mention that getting married in the desert is not for the faint of heart.
I had my wedding at Rim Rock ranch and it truly was the perfect day. Gwen and Reno went above and beyond to help make our day run as smoothly as possible. The setting felt like it was out of a movie, this location makes for a fantastic wedding venue.
Rimrock is a hidden gem out in the desert! I'm a wedding photographer and have had the honor of photographing a few weddings here, now -- the owners are always so kind to everyone and are generous to share their desert oasis with the public.
Getting married at Rimrock Ranch
Rimrock Ranch 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.
