From the reviews
From the moment we walked through the venue for the first time, we knew it was the perfect place for our intimate wedding. The beautiful landscape, various settings for different parts of the event, and overall magical atmosphere won us over instantly. Working with Kim was an absolute pleasure from the beginning.
We recently booked The Wishing Well for our wedding. I can't express how incredible everything turned out! Kim and Kiva are incredible people. Professional, yet extremely kind, laid back, communicative and eager to make sure we had everything we needed. Every space is well thought out...
We went there to attend a wedding...ala air bnb..believe it or not!!! It was both rock and solemn simultaneously!!! Check out their website to see what I'm talkin'bout!
We had the pleasure of having our wedding at The Wishing Well Mini Ranch. The hosts made it really easy to have a great time. Kim and Kiva were really helpful throughout the day. Their vision and design of their property is incredible. There are so many little details of the place that made it feel really inviting.
Getting married at Wishing Well mini Ranch
Wishing Well mini 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.
