Clauren Ridge Vineyard and Winery is a true hidden gem in Oklahoma's wine country. I didn't know…read moreabout this place until I was invited to my cousin's birthday there, and it turned out to be such a special day. The winery itself is charming, with beautiful vineyard views that give California and French vibes right in Edmond. The wine tasting experience was excellent. There are wines for every preference...rich reds, crisp whites, and some sweet selections too. Never had chocolate wine before, and I didn't know how much I needed it in my life lol. The wine flights, wine slushies, and mimosas are all worth trying, and the appetizers were fantastic alongside the wines. I also found the prices to be very reasonable. The atmosphere was delightful, and you can tell it is a family-run winery with a real passion for quality. The vineyard is well maintained, and the setting is both welcoming and picturesque. It is no surprise that Clauren Ridge is also a popular spot for weddings and other events. Our group spent time out on the veranda and patio, which made the celebration feel even more special. To top it off, my cousin was proposed to at the end of the party and got engaged. The whole experience was beautiful, and I am grateful to Clauren Ridge for providing such a memorable backdrop. If you are looking for a relaxing spot to enjoy wine with friends or to celebrate a special occasion, I definitely recommend Clauren Ridge Vineyard and Winery.

We purchased a wine flight and evaluated two each of their white and red offerings. We both detected that one white and one red offering had a slight 'off' aftertaste which seemed unnatural. (One in our party does not regularly drink wine, the other drinks primarily red varietals, 95% of which are from Northern California regions.) Overall we agreed the best of the group was the "Saddle Thief Reserve" blend. We would not be buyers of any Clauren wine at this time, however do look forward to returning and tasting the "slushies" on another warm afternoon.

When we booked, the owner required us to sign a form saying we could not leave a negative review. I…read morelater learned those kinds of agreements aren't enforceable under consumer protection laws, and I feel it was an unfair attempt to silence honest feedback. Long story short: the owner was extremely rude throughout the process. She even told one of our guests that if the venue wasn't spotless, we would lose our deposit. We did clean thoroughly and left the place spotless, yet we still had to argue with her--only to get part of our deposit back. Her excuse? Our DJ arrived a little early to set up. Save yourself the headache and book a different venue. Honestly, we would have had a smoother wedding at McDonald's."

Every request was addressed to make the day just right. Every decoration and set up imaginable was available and tweaked to fit our theme, colors, and personalities. The usual concerns of hosting a group and having enough room for food, food prep, seating, visiting, etc. were gone leading to a festive day that far exceeded our expectations; this incredible experience made us realize The Manor would be THE perfect setting for ALL kinds of events. We cannot thank Tammie and The Manor crew enough for their care and attention!

Came here over the weekend for a wedding (and the reception was here too). It's surrounded by sort…read moreof a rustic looking atmosphere. Like there's a silo (I think that's what it is?) right outside the venue and also train tracks right outside too. It definitely feels like you are in a more or less secluded area, even though it's very much still in Edmond. The ground outside the venue was mostly large gravel up closest to the entrance, and small gravel further away (like where most people ended up parking). It wasn't the most level ground, which made it a bit difficult for those of us in high heels! It also didn't help that it had rained earlier that day, so there were tons of puddles... so many that you could barely avoid stepping in dirty water, not to mention the wetness paired with the gravel paired with tall shoes just made for a slightly wobbly walk inside. Not the worst thing ever, but if I were the venue, I'd definitely consider paving more of the ground outside to counteract this! There is a small deck type thing out of the front. They have stairs and also a ramp up to this deck which leads to the front door entrance. Inside was smaller than I expected it to be, but it definitely fit everyone that came to the wedding and the reception. It has sort of a mix of the cute country vibe and the fancy warehouse vibe thing going on. I believe you could see the bricks inside, and there were also barn doors on the windows just for example. There was a small balcony in the back. From what I could tell the only way to get up to the balcony was by stairs. Then through a hallway in the back they also have bathrooms and a groomsmen room and bridesmaids room. Because the ceremony and reception were both here, we had to all go outside to wait for them to switch from rows of chairs to tables. I'm not sure if the venue itself was in charge of doing this, or some outside third party, but it didn't take too long (maybe 10-15 minutes). Luckily, we had food and a coffee bar to keep us occupied while waiting for this switch.
