Whether you're planning a classic, vintage, bohemian, or modern celebration, Civil War Ranch is the location for weddings of all kinds.
Civil War Ranch is set on 78 acres of beautiful countryside. You can host your event in their climate-controlled Wedding Barn, which dates back to the 1800s, or in the outdoor Pergola Pole Barn. Exchange vows on the shore of the two-and-a-half-acre pond, under the beautiful Wedding Tree near the creek, or in the Barn.

From the time Bruce and I were married 46 years ago I have loved helping with the planning and setting up of friends and family weddings. We have done many other things in our busiiness careers but sometimes life takes unexpected turns.When we purchased Civil War Ranch the beautiful old barns spoke to my heart and with the encouragement of friends and my husband we went to work to create something that is true to the uniqueness of the setting and the barns. We opened in July of 2013 and have helped over hundreds of couples celebrate their special day in their own amazing way.

Had the best time working with Civil war Ranch. The entire staff was amazing, answering numerous questions, decorating the venue and cleaning up, and coordinating our wedding day. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and the perfect space for our 130 guests. October and this beautiful venue made the perfect day for our outside wedding of my dreams. I can’t recommend her enough, she goes above and beyond any exceptions!

The venue was beautiful but the owner did not have everything together. The ceremony could have been a lot better if the vendor was more prepared.
Any questions?

This place is very pretty. Even prettier when it is made up for your big day! It was perfect for our small wedding. It’s good for small/medium sized weddings. It held our 35-45 guests very well, but any more and it would have been too small, otherwise beautiful place! It has its own brides room and grooms room, both very nice! It’s peaceful here as well.

Thank you Olivia for the kind words. We wish you well in your new life together. I think...
for your set up it was perfect for a small wedding. We have had however, many weddings each year that are 100 to 150 guests. They just set up differently.
