Most venues I searched for charge for the amount of people and extra amenities, but this ranch did not! They also only plan one wedding for the weekend, so you do not have to share your wedding day with anyone else! Besides these great things, the property is just breathtaking! There are trees, and greenery, and a western look to the property. I would definitely recommend having your wedding or any other special event here. Also, Shanna, the event coordinator, is just amazing!!

The weather was perfect our guests loved the scenery, honestly you don't even need decor because the venue is your decor ! It is stunning , the one thing I can say that went wrong was the professionalism of the bartenders. They were rude from the moment our guests were able to grab drinks. I experienced it & I was the damn bride . I had half of my guests tell me that one moment a drink would cost $8 dollars and when they would go back up for the next they noticed the cost of drinks going up or the two bartenders talking to eachother asking what the price should be . I wasn't going to have open bar so I made sure to asked how much drinks would cost so my guest were aware , I was told in our final meeting that the prices of drinks should Range from $7-$12 . And drinks were reaching $15+. As bride and groom our tab was 250$ and we had a total of maybe 6-8 drinks , I've been a bartender for years and that number is ridiculous for the amount of drinks I got.. also you can't get upset at guest wanting to bring there own alcohol in when the bartenders are scamming them out of there money and not pouring the legal amount into a drink . I can really go on and on about the bartenders that night which really sucks bc I shouldn't have to worry about something like that on our wedding day. So to sum it all up I would just do better with your bartending staff especially since that's what really matters to guest most of the day . Another thing I should add is make sure you book the grooms suit for the bride and bridal party, bc the bridal sweet is the size of a walk-in closet . Also make sure the bathrooms are working properly bc by the end of the night when I had to change into my other dress the bridal sweet room smelt terrible .... One more thing , be aware that there is alot of added on fees at your 60-30 day meeting . Things that you should be aware of earlier on to work into your budget :/

I got married here in January and so many things went wrong. First when we toured the venue the…read morerestrooms weren't working and we were told they'd be fixed by my wedding. However that didn't happen and we weren't made aware of this until the morning of. They did bring in portable restrooms but they were located down a hill which made it hard for my guests (women in heels and elderly) to get to them. The bartending staff was also very rude and slow, and told my parents that people had to pay for soda when I paid extra to have that unlimited so they had to find me to get that fixed. The bartenders also made my guests wait in line for soda/water instead of just putting some out for people to grab. I can continue but for now I will just say that I don't recommend this venue for your wedding/event. When I got on the phone to talk to the owner she was very rude and defensive as well instead of listening to a customer who paid a lot of money for things she was promised and didn't receive. This venue is definitely not worth the money/having your special day be here!!!!

Everything went smoothly.

This place is beautiful HOWEVER, they are unprofessional, disorganized, lack in communication,…read moreirresponsible (take no responsibility for their major errors). I HIGHLY suggest you not book here! Over 10 years ago I had booked what was my wedding ceremony and reception . We had a large guest list but the gentlemen we worked with assured us they'd be able to accommodate our exceptionally large group. We did the tours, had a few walk throughs, signed the contract, put our deposit then when I was going to make my final payment (in person) the gentlemen that was helping us was not there but instead it was a very young rude girl. She denied that we ever booked a reception and that she only had us down for a ceremony. I freaked out being our wedding was only months away. The young lady must have been related to the owner bc it showed in her nonchalant attitude. She kept denying that our contract had a ceremony and reception and that they could do nothing about it bc they have a reception booked on that date and that their must have just been"miscommunication". I explained how we were already working with a gentleman there who even walked us through the venue and showed us how they would set up the reception to accommodate our guest and how we had been in conversation with him and had a contract. We were really shocked and taken back by her denying what we experienced. The best this young lady could do was offer us a refund. What horrible service what terrible lack of integrity on their part, to lie and deny is troubling. Weeks before our wedding they dropped the ball and double booked on our already reserved date and they couldn't be professional about it and admit their error. Then they had the audacity to ask for a letter saying that WE breached the contract. What?! That was ridiculous but after that experience, we didn't even want our wedding ceremony there seeing their poor communication skills, lack of professionalism, lack of integrity and lack of concern just showed us how they would've been on our wedding day. If they couldn't be honest during the process then for sure we wouldn't be able to trust them on our wedding day. The reason I'm posting this over 10 years later is because now (years later) I am just now receiving an email response from them saying that my review on the knot.com is on hold until I can prove payment and contract. I'm baffled at this email, how unprofessional is that? Where have you been the last 10+ years, why respond now? Why are you asking me to provide records and proof when you have them yourself? That's silly that a business can withhold a review because they don't like what it says (the truth about their service) and why all these years later. Why are they just now reviewing reviews of their business? That email proves that they' are still unprofessional and still disorganized and still lack integrity. I'd still never recommend this place to anyone. It was pricey then so I'm sure it's more expensive now. Not worth it. Besides we've learned it's better to invest in an extravagant honeymoon and a starter home for your marriage rather than a one day event that cost a fortune that majority of your guest won't even remember the details and money that you put into it. But that honeymoon, and that investment in your marriage both you and your spouse will remember for a life time. DITCH THIS VENUE there are plenty other cool little hip places you can find at the fraction of the price that are much more creative. Try the hidden oaks wedding venue, super affordable outdoors, historic and hip, great location, excellent service. Peer space app is also a great place to look where you can rent extravagant homes for the day without the "wedding" price tag.

We had the absolute pleasure of providing our 'WINTERFEST' marquee letters for this year's celebration, and seeing them lit up at night in Historic Uptown Yucaipa was truly magical. The event is a breathtaking experience for the whole family, featuring live entertainment, a beautiful tree lighting ceremony, and Santa's Workshop. The atmosphere was incredible as the community came together to enjoy the Kids' Zone and the Beer & Wine Garden. The venue and the event organizers did a phenomenal job creating an unforgettable, festive environment. It was an honor to be a part of such a meaningful local tradition.

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of coming to Yucaipa Performing Arts Center for the first time…read more What a gem of a place! A group of us were attending a live musical performance. The parking across the street was plentiful at the time we we arrived. We were checked in with our tickets and arm banded to indicate we were of age. We only carried what we needed in our pockets, so don't know if there would have been a more thorough security check if we carried bags. The people we met at entrance were friendly and welcoming. The first thing I noticed was the beautiful landscaped, outdoor space. Plenty of patio style seating with cushions, colorful lighting, fireplaces, and overall, a "Hey! Have a seat and hang out with your friends in this nice open air space!" Kind of vibe. There are outdoor screens so folks who wish to not be inside can enjoy the same live experience outside. Adjacent to the room the DJ and band were in, was more seating with couches, pool table, and other games, a big screen to watch the performance, and on this particular night, opportunity to get flash tattoos from a local artisan. The bathrooms were clean and tidy. The merch line was long but well organized. There was alcohol for sale. It was General Admission "seating" which allowed the crowd plenty of space to sing, dance, mosh, and move in and out of the space easily. The sound system took a bit to dial in, but once set, the place rocked. The stage area was spacious enough for the band to work all areas of the stage and shallow enough that we could still easily see the drummer. The AC was on, so even with everyone dancing it up, it remained fresh. Which is thing with sweaty bodies! After, folks congregated in the other areas. Staff were cool about letting folks hang out for a pretty long while afterwards, and were friendly and respectful when having to wrap it up. Overall, a great event space! I already look forward to coming back.

Fig and lavender infused (LI) goat cheese pizza was excellent. LI mixed drinks were very good, but the LI beer was a bit of a let down. Sour type beer is fine but lacked any lavender smell or taste. Maybe expecting too much. Advice- Use the washrooms in/by the old hotel lobby, avoid the ones on the side of building with the large Pennants saying 'restrooms.'...they are old hotel rooms with storage boxes all over. Note main food vendors by the music stage area but there are boutique vendors at one side of venue by the hotel, with the LI teas, coffees, ice cream etc. Most sell the same stuff ( teas, jams, olive oils, creams, lotions, nic-nacs, etc).

I'm sure a lot has been said already about HIGHLAND SPRINGS' FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS so I'll try not to bore you with a long and lengthy "this is what you can find here". I will try to give some tips though. - Come early. Yes, even before the lights turn on. This is beneficial for avoiding traffic, getting good parking spots, shorter food lines, shorter bathroom lines. - Get your food first. So you can walk off the calories. Also, because most people eat after an activity when they get hungry... and then the line will be super long. - Get whatever lavender they have. Hot cocoa, Latte... - Reserve a s'mores pit. When it's cold, it's the best. - Take pictures of everything everywhere. We consumed the following and they were GREAT! - Smoked Brisket Poutine - Clam Chowder in a Bread Bowl - Lavender Latte - Lavender Hot Chocolate
