Mark Your Calandars! Finally, after 5 years, the Rustic Ranch is happy to bring back our Photos with Santa Nights! If you’re looking for a great spot for the kiddos to meet Santa, drop off their letters to Santa, and take your Christmas Photos…look no further! We are excited to bring back this event with proceeds going to a great cause, NO CHILD WITHOUT A CHRISTMAS!

We will be having some local vendors on site on each of these nights, to possibly inspire some gift ideas! If anyone is looking to set up a booth with us, please send a DM for more info, spots have filled quick, but still have room for a few more!

We look forward to seeing you all in a few weeks as we welcome in the Christmas 2024’ Season!

*Just FYI, cash or debit will be available for Santa Photos…however, each vendor will have their own method of payments*

Happy Sunday! Just sending out some feelers, looking to see if we have any local vendors/home businesses/crafters, interested in setting up a booth as part of our Photos with SANTA Nights, returning to the ranch this Christmas Season. If interested and would like some info…please send us a message! ; )

Well, this is always a bittersweet post, as we today celebrate our last wedding of our 2024 season, and what a beauty day to close out on! One last look at the grounds today before our wedding gets underway.

I personally would like to thank all our great staff and vendors for everything you bring to our venue, it takes a team to make our place happen, and I got a great team. Also, big thanks to all our newlyweds that tied the knot at the ranch…we hope we gave you the best day to remember in your life together.

This year we ventured into some new ideas, with Caesar Nights seeming to be a hit idea! I have to thank all the guests that bought tickets to give us a try, all our entertainment that took the stage, vendors that took there time to be part of the events, and the bartenders for bringing there mixing creativity to all of us! We will be bringing Caesar Nights back next year…so stay tuned for dates…as well as some new ideas coming in 2025 ; ).

Last but not least….CHRISTMAS TIME is gonna be upon us here shortly….and we are happy to say we will be bringing Santa back to the ranch for meet & greets & photos for your family and kiddos! Stay tuned and we will be posting dates with our Santa schedule for the holiday season!

Hope everyone is enjoying there weekend, and we will be keeping you posted on all stuff coming with The Rustic Ranch! Cheers! 🍻 ❤️

Hope everyone had a great first weekend of fall! I have just a small rant, to hopefully give some insight to people attending events, at any type of venue in the future. Can we ALL just try to be nice and respectful?

At the ranch, we have had great people that attend our events, but every once in a while you might run into one or two bad eggs. All venues that have a full AGCO Liquor License have to follow the rules laid out to them, it’s not our rules! It’s mainly 2 factors…1) you can’t bring your booze into the venue, nor can leave with booze from the venue. 2) you can’t smoke or v**e within the licensed area…even outside within licensed areas!

We’ve had a couple nights this season where certain guests believe they don’t have to follow the rules or they are above the law…even after being kindly reminded. Then they proceed to use verbal abuse, blowing smoke into a staff members faces or challenging staff to fight. It’s beyond uncalled for and is absurd to happen AT ALL over these simple rules, but even worse at someone’s wedding that your invited too.

So speaking on behalf of other licensed venues, restaurants/bars etc….and your gonna be a guest at any kind of event, please understand that we aren’t the ones making these rules we follow, and that we have to follow set rules to keep our license and venues running. There is quit a process involved with getting a license, and I know personally, I’m not gonna lose my license for anyone.

Rant over…hope everyone has a fantastic week ahead! And remember, it doesn’t cost anything to be NICE ❤️

Happy Wednesday all…and Happy 8th Anniversary to us, The Rustic Ranch! An idea back in 2016 to host our nephews wedding 8 years ago, has now blossomed into what I’ve envisioned since day 1!

Lots of learning and challenges along the way, and I wouldn’t change it for the anything. This place ONLY runs with a great crew behind it, we all have our rolls in keeping the place looking and running like it needs too, and anyone that has had any part or say along the way, and to this day…please know how much your appreciated with your thoughts, suggestions and constant support!

When I say my brain don’t shut down, I will say I have lots of fun ideas coming for the ranch’s future. Weddings and events will hopefully continuously grow, and I will always put 110% behind any venture coming our way!

So from me personally…thank you to all our bride & grooms, all the guests who have attended a wedding or special event here, who have given us great feed back, it means the world to hear. And finally, this all can’t be done without these special people…Crystal, Emily, Ron, Brad, Kate, Craig and my music man DJ Keri…I think we make a pretty good team ; ) ❤️

Cheers!

Well it’s official, our first season of CAESAR NIGHTS is in the books, and after approximately 1,990 Caesars served over the contest…CONGRATS goes out to Zak & Crew for taking top spot, as voted by our guests!

I would now like to express my THANKS to everyone that helped make this first season a success. All the guests for attending, our competing bartenders, all the vendors, entertainers, our staff…and we can’t forget Mother Nature for being on our side each night! We had fun, and we hope you did also! ❤️

So next question is….do we do it again in 2025? Anyone who knows me, knows my mind doesn’t have an off switch…and there is some new ideas cooking…maybe we can TACO-BOUT it over MARGS??? Stay Tuned!!

Happy weekend all!

Happy Friday all! We are less then a week away from our Caesar Night Finale…crowning our top 4 bartender contenders for our 2024 best!
