Well we wrapped up todays SANTA photo session, and we just wanted to say THANKS to everyone who come out to support this cause. We are happy to say we raised $3000 for Chatham Goodfellows NO CHILD WITHOUT A CHRISTMAS.

We hope everyone that attended over the past 4 weeks enjoyed their time with us, and the kids enjoyed their time meeting SANTA, BumBle and The Grinch. We sure had fun seeing the joy in their faces, and is some cases, the fear in their faces ; ). If you have any pictures you would like to share with us, we would love to see them.

Also, big thanks to our local vendors for battling Mother Nature and wanting to take part in these dates. Next will have an even better set up next year, so hopefully you consider coming back!

So from us at the RUSTIC RANCH, we hope you all have the happiest of holidays and a very Merry Christmas! ❤️❄️🎄

Merry Friday everyone, and welcome to the weekend! Now we are less then a week from the start of our Photos with Santa Nights…wanted to share with you our schedule of vendors joining us! (this schedule is subject to change). We thank them for wanting to take part, and taking in the festivities as we welcome Santa & some surprise friends to The Rustic Ranch.

Each vendor will have there own method of payments, so I don’t know if all will offer card service…so I would be prepared for that. Inside the Ranch, our donations supporting NO CHILD WITHOUT A CHRISTMAS, for Santa Meet & Greet & Photos, can be done cash or card. $10 per child, and you can take your own photos using your own camera source. We will have our volunteers on site to assist in taking photos for you, if you’re looking for a fun family shot!

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! 🍻 ❤️

Congratulations on your beautiful union, Jacob and Marirose! Wishing you a lifetime of love, joy, and cherished moments together. 💍❤️

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 ❤️

09/18/2024

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!
