Over the years our love of the area’s blue skies, wide-open fields of green, and crisp air has only grown. We are passionate about keeping our land as open space, and sharing it with the generations to come. We truly appreciate your support in helping us maintain Jackson Hole's legacy.
Sincerely,

Wow wow wow! Diamond Cross Ranch was the most amazing venue for our wedding. Not only is the actual property stunning, but the staff at the ranch is so kind and helpful. My husband and I are from the Midwest and planning a destination wedding is not easy, but Diamond Cross made the planning process so much easier. The day of our wedding ran so smoothly and all of our guests were blown away by the beauty of the ranch. Diamond Cross encapsulates the true beauty of Wyoming and I cannot recommend their venue enough.

Our wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch was incredible! Our guests were blown away by the ranch - including how kind and welcoming all the DCR staff were. Lauren was very responsive throughout the months leading up to the wedding. You will not regret having your wedding here - we wish we could do it again!! The beauty of this place is unmatched.

Our wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch was the most magical day, on the most breathtaking property! Our guests are still talking about the beautify of the ranch and the iconic horse release - months after our wedding! It was such a dream working with Lauren and the entire staff at the ranch.

FABLULOUS! There are not enough words to describe how fabulous this venue is.
The scenic beauty of the mountains is the backdrop where the ceremony takes place!
A mouth dropping “surprise” at the end of the ceremony leaves guest talking for hours!
The Barn is magnificent. It can be decorated from a casual to elegant style wedding depending on your taste. My daughter’s preference leaned classy elegance and the wedding planner we had is very familiar with the venue as she had done many weddings there before. Even 1800 miles away and never seeing the venue in person, she was able to capture my daughter’s essence of exactly what she wanted, and the barn accommodated it perfectly. It was beautiful! The communication between Lauren (Diamond Cross rep), myself and the planner went smoothly and was always very timely.
The staff the evening of the wedding was so cordial and pleasant. It was enjoyable to talk with them as the “golden hour” phots were being taken in the field. They were very informative and downright friendly.
I cannot say enough good things about the venue but highly recommend considering this as a number one on the list of venues to consider. Word of advice, book early (its very popular), consider a weekday wedding if you have to stretch the budget to make it happen.
I heard the best words a mama can hear on her daughter’s wedding day! As we walked into the barn before the ceremony, I searched her face for a reaction, but her words said it all. “Mama, its even more beautiful than I imagined”!

Choosing Diamond Cross Ranch for our wedding was one of the best decision we made in our planning process. It was also the most risky choice we made as we booked our date without seeing the venue. Usually this goes against every bone in my body but I would be kicking myself if we had not taken the gamble.
This venue is nestled against the stunning backdrop of the Tetons which beats any wedding decor that you could buy. The venue's rustic charm, coupled with the jaw-dropping mountain views, made every moment special. Our guests were in awe of the picturesque setting which was heightened by the horse release that took place as we exchanged vows. Not only did our friends and family love this touch but it gave us some epic photos.
What sets Diamond Cross Ranch apart is Lauren and her exceptional team. Every interaction I had with Lauren made me feel like she genuinely wanted to help make our wedding perfect which was a such welcomed experience as wedding planning can feel stressful. Lauren's helpfulness extended to vendor recommendations, answer seemingly tedious questions and accommodating additional viewings. This might not be a positive for everyone but we loved that when you book Diamond Cross you are not forced to use their onsite rentals or vendors (as they don't have them). We loved not feeling stuck with food, drinks, decor that didn't feel like our own. The flexibility allowed us to make the day uniquely personal.
We have nothing but great things to say about this venue. Diamond Cross Ranch will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

We wish we could give Diamond Cross Ranch more than 5 stars because it's over-the-top phenomenal! The scenery was of course world-class...it's been three months and our guests are STILL talking about what an amazing venue it was and how great the staff were. The Diamond Cross Ranch staff were extremely professional, helpful. and very responsive. Lots of our guests stayed at the ranch in the Teton Cabins and we have never heard such positive reviews from our "hard-to-please" family members. They can't wait to book another stay there. We love Diamond Cross Ranch and cannot recommend them enough.

Absolutely amazing experience! Our wedding here could not have been any better. The staff was exceptional and professional. The venue itself has exquisite views and our photos exceeded our wildest hopes. We met with the family who owned the ranch and they were incredibly kind. I wish we could go back in time and relive this day over and over again.

Every person we interacted with on wedding day had the biggest smile on their face and were super helpful. We had unfortunate weather and the ceremony had to be moved inside. We were unable to do the horse release and take photos outside with the horses. Lauren and the rest of the DCR team tried their best to make this happen for us, but the weather was just too bad. However, they offered other ways for us to get the wedding photos we wanted and have been so willing to help us with our vision! The venue is of course beautiful and we still had an amazing ceremony and reception. They were a pleasure to work with!!

We were married at the Diamond Cross Ranch in June 2023. It could not have been a more perfect place for us! The green pastures, the horses, the rustic barn with its strings of lights and, of course, the views of the Tetons made for a stunning setting and an unforgettable evening. So many of our guests commented that ours was the most beautiful wedding they have ever attended. Lauren and her team were wonderful to work with. We will always treasure our evening at the Ranch.

My husband and I had never been to Jackson, Wy. before. Our daughter and husband to be, decided that's where they wanted to get married, one reason being that it was where he proposed. So our daughter planned most if not all the wedding details. They both wanted a Ranch location and Diamond Cross Ranch was one of the few that had all the amenities they were looking for. An indoor building, restrooms, place for a DJ., kitchen and tables and chairs. Our daughter contacted Lauren from DCR. Lauren answered all questions she had and made her feel very comfortable with all her questions and concerns. We were not able to see DCR first hand but was so overwhelmed with what we saw the day of. The barn was decorated to the tee with sparkling lights on the ceiling with huge paned windows looking out onto the snow capped mountains. Yes she got married the first of June 2023, we were concerned about the weather, blue skies, some wind which only lasted 15 minutes and never felt any rain. Most of the guests wanted to stay outside to take in all the natural beauty especially when the herd of horses came out galloping through the fields. There were some ranch hands available to talk to about the family history, third generation of a family owned working ranch. What a beautiful backdrop for a wedding. We have another daughter that is engaged, her remark after her sister wedding was " To top this venue we might have to rent an island and have animals shipped in ". My husband and I never saw any part of Yellowstone while we were there, but came home after seeing DCR that we didn't miss a thing! I would love to do this again with our other daughter but that's her decision. You don't want to miss this venue.

We had the most amazing, beautiful, wedding day at Diamond Cross Ranch and could not have done it without their amazing staff and Lauren, the Director of Events. She was so kind, helpful and easy to work with from the moment we chose this as our wedding venue. Everything about the venue and the staff was top notch and they made our wedding day stress free. We cannot recommend this place enough! We were fortunate to have our ceremony outside but it started to rain immediately after and luckily we were able to move the cocktail hour inside the barn. It's a huge plus that they have the barn on site for bathrooms, catering, and band as many other wedding locations in the area are all outside and require a tent or additional vendors for things like the bathroom, band green room, caterer etc. Diamond Cross exceeded our expectation and we cannot recommend this place enough!!

We hosted our son's wedding here Oct 1 of 2022. It was a destination wedding for both sides of the family. And it was the most magical day for all - expectations exceeded on every front. From the moment we arrived until the sun had set across the majesty of the Grand Teton range. People were saying it was one of the best weddings they ever attended. Thank you Diamond Cross Ranch Team!!

We (and our guests) could not be more thrilled with Diamond Cross Ranch. There are many venues to choose from in Jackson Hole, many of them being ranches, but Diamond Cross was fabulous!! A few things that made this place stand out (in no particular order) (1) the views are unreal + the sunset is perfect, (2) the staff is phenomenal, responsive, kind and helpful if you're looking for top notch vendors or ideas (we used a photographer, DJ, coordinator and Baker recommended by the venue and all were some of the most dependable/talented vendors ) (3) they will let ANY vision come to life, so you can turn the barn into your dream spot (4) they can do smore's for your guests (which was a huge hit) (5) the bus ride out to the venue was many guests favorite part of the wedding because of amazing scenery and bonding with old friends and new and (6) the crew will stop at nothing to help your day go smoothly. We forgot our guest book and we were able to use one of the books on the ranch titled "Think like a Horse." Lauren (who runs the events at the venue) went out of her way to ship it to us when we FORGOT it on the bus. Now it will be one of our favorite tangible reminders from the best day in the best place. Seriously, if you're looking for the perfect spot to have the "best wedding ever" you should highly consider, and I highly recommend, DXR!!!

We had a September wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch and it was the perfect venue! We were able to see it in person prior to booking and I was so excited to see its potential - not to mention the improvements made from our initial booking which included a concrete floor and improved ceiling twinkle lights.
We worked primarily with Lauren and she was so awesome to work with! She helps make sure you are set up for success leading up to the wedding as well as the wedding day. She was very responsive and friendly. Helping to assure us of our questions and making sure we were informed of everything we needed to know prior to booking the venue as well as throughout the process. We had no gotchas or surprises throughout the process which was great. All of the guests raved about the event and couldn't dream of a better backdrop for sunset. Some even joked they found their wedding venue. Best day ever and couldn't have imagined a better venue for us. Thank you!

Two months after our wedding we still feel like we are coming down from a cloud. There is not a more stunning venue out there, it will take yours and your guest's breath away! We feel so lucky and grateful that we got to have our DREAM wedding here. But not just our dream wedding, anyone's dream wedding! Aside from the amazing venue and views, Lauren who runs the events is so accommodating and answers all your questions, keeps you on track, and day of they make sure everything is perfect. All of our guests are still reaching out to us saying it was a live changing experience for them and best wedding they have ever been to. I can't say enough wonderful things about Diamond Cross Ranch!

Where do I even start? We ADORE Diamond Cross Ranch. My husband and I had our wedding welcome event at Diamond Cross Ranch and it was magical and perfect in every single way. Our guests will be raving about it for many years to come. The entire venue was breathtaking, the Teton views are unparalleled, the horses were wonderful and majestic, the property and nature are spectacular, the DCR staff was so friendly, hardworking, welcoming and professional, and every aspect of the party was enchanting and beautiful. We can’t recommend the DCR family enough. We worked with Director of Events, Lauren Long, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was extremely kind, accommodating, warm, organized, professional, helpful, caring, and amazing in every way. We are so grateful to Lauren, the lovely Golliher family (they are amazing), and the whole DCR team for letting us host our very special event at the magical ranch, and for everything they did to give us one of the best nights of our lives. Our guests were truly in awe of the beauty of the venue and the magic of the entire experience. We had a blast. Definitely one of the most beautiful, wonderful places we have ever visited and it was an honor to be able to have our wedding event there. Magic is the only way to describe our experience at DCR and we will definitely be back. Thank you so much for the most memorable, meaningful event!

There is truly nothing that compares to having your wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch! This venue will have you and your guests feeling like you are the only people on Earth. We had an absolutely perfect wedding day here and cannot recommend them enough. From our first inquiry, everything was smooth and seamless. The team is so wonderful to work with and you can tell how much love is poured into the ranch and the couples who host their weddings there. The horse release really sets them apart and was one of the main reasons we decided to get married here. Ourselves and our guests could not get over how beautiful the scenery was, we all felt like we were in Heaven. There have been some new renovations in the barn as well that really make it beautiful and comfortable for guests. There is not a single thing we would have changed if given the opportunity. I promise you will never experience anything like Diamond Cross. We will never forget our magical day there.

Easiest 5-Star review ever to give. DCR is a spectacular venue. The Teton backdrop with the horses in the field makes for timeless photos. Even though the DCR is a bit of a drive from town and warrants some extra logistical planning, it is worth it in spades. We chose to charter a bus for all our guests so no one had to drive. Hardest part about having DCR as a venue will be keeping the guests in their seats long enough to have a the ceremony and get through some speeches. At sunset our entire guestlist was outside taking photos. ALL of our guests raved about the experience.
We did a walk through a week prior to our ceremony and were fortunate to meet the owners of the ranch. They were very welcoming and absolutely some of the kindest people to meet on this planet. Their daughter in-law Lauren is the Head of Events and was exceptional at making sure we were taken care of. It's clearly a family run business that they pride themselves on and want to make sure every guest enjoys the grandeur of the location and atmosphere. Fantastic all around.

There are not enough words in the dictionary or characters in this text box to express my utmost appreciation for the Diamond Cross Ranch Crew.
Lauren made the planning process seamless and eased any worries I had. She was extremely responsive and was always willing to answer any questions, regardless of how silly they may have been. Plus her vendor recommendations were ON POINT. We had quite the dream team when it came to our vendors, but hey, I may be slightly biased. 🙊
Regarding the event day itself, from the moment we pulled up, we felt like a part of the Diamond Cross Ranch family. Jessica was the most epic partner in crime for the day of festivities. She ensured that everything was ready to go and made the event flow so effortlessly. Trust me when I said, I did not have to think about anything. Instead I had the space to enjoy myself and the special moments that transpired.
Grant and Jane were an absolute pleasure to speak with. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of the ranch and we were so unbelievably grateful for their graciousness in welcoming us with open arms. Plus we got to hang out Gracie, their ranch dog, which made the atmosphere even more warm.
Now the atmosphere, HOLY MOLY. That is all I can say. The views are unbelievable and the crispness of the air is unlike anything I have ever experienced (and we are adventurers). We had the chance to also interact with the horses after the ceremony and their epic entrance via the horse release. All of the horses were very cordial and the Diamond Cross team ensured that all of the horses were acting as expected.
I could truly go on and on about this incredible venue & team. But to be honest, you don't even need to read this entire review to know what your next steps are...DIAMOND CROSS RANCH IT IS.
Enjoy the experience of a lifetime & my advice is to take time with your partner following the ceremony to take in the mountains. Stand together and share a few deep breaths as a married couple.
Cheers!

Our wedding experience at Diamond Cross Ranch was magical, wonderful and the stuff of which wedding dreams are made. From our first contact with Lauren, we knew this venue would not disappoint. She was so kind and helpful; answering all of our questions, offering options from wedding officiants to catering to nail salons. She was always quick to respond to any question we sent in emails! She was generous in opening the ranch barn up to my daughter and son-in-law when they visited Jackson Hole to check out the details, marriage license and food tasting. The final day did not disappoint and surpassed our expectations. We were blessed with beautiful weather, blue skies and fluffy white clouds to frame the Grand Tetons in the background and beauty of the ranch and the horses. We have wonderful, lasting memories and awesome photos of our daughter’s beautiful wedding. The addition of the horses running out after the vows was the icing on the cake! Kudos to Diamond Cross Ranch and all of our wonderful vendors.

Wow! Can’t even begin to describe how magical this venue is. Believe it or not, it’s even more beautiful in person. We booked it sight unseen, as we live in San Diego. Needless to say, when we finally saw it in real life, it took our breaths away. And it had that EXACT same effect on our friends and family as they stepped off the bus on our wedding day. It has a peaceful, yet rejuvenating vibe that impacted everyone who attended, and will stay with them long after the wedding is over.
On top of the unique venue, Lauren was the absolute best to work with. So kind, chill, knowledgeable, experienced, professional, fun and supportive. It was so reassuring knowing we had her as a resource through the entire process. And her husband Peter is just as wonderful and a pleasant surprise that we got to work with him as well. Amazing couple/family, breathtaking land and venue, with service that is just the icing on the cake! Diamond Cross Ranch will always hold a special place in our hearts <3

We had our rehearsal/ welcome dinner at the Diamond Cross Ranch. It was even better than we imagined. Our guests had the best time hanging in the outdoor space - admiring the views and watching the horses. The indoor barn venue was perfect for our dinner - with perfect views of the tetons. Lauren and the staff were amazing - they were present and made our event so smooth. This was such a beautiful experience for our friends and family and we have the most amazing photos from this event!

I truly cannot say enough good things about this venue. It has to be one of the most gorgeous wedding venues in the country. Lauren was so incredible every step of the way from initial conversation to wedding day. I truly felt like the VIP guest at my wedding and not the host. Our guests were given an experience of a lifetime. So many people broke down into tears at the sheer beauty of the venue, the sunset, the horses. I would do it over again a million times if I could. It was truly the best day of my life.

BY FAR the best decision made on a wedding venue. Of course the location is unreal ... but the staff, wranglers, outdoor space, indoor barn/arena, and overall ambiance of DCR makes it a complete dream. I had my dream wedding go off without a single hiccup, and all of my planning was done sight unseen and out of state. Thank you to Lauren for helping make this possible, and for sharing the legacy of the ranch on our special day.

Diamond Cross staff were professional and great to work with. Lauren gave us vendor recommendations and followed our planning stages through initial inquiry to wedding date without hiccup. The ranch was accommodating to visit before our big day and were very friendly while showing us around and even let our little ones sit on the horses! The barn was immaculate considering there is a functional horse arena in the back. The front wedding ceremony area was also beautifully maintained and perfectly complimented the views of the Tetons. We would highly recommend Diamond Cross Ranch to anyone considering Jackson WY as their wedding destination.

The hospitality and kindness of the staff at DCR is impossible to beat. I can’t begin to tell you how much we as a couple and every single one of our guest enjoyed the Wyoming experience at DCR. The horse release was by far the most popular event at the wedding. I still get texts from family and friends telling me how no wedding will beat ours at the DCR. It was a fairytale and I wish I could go back every year and get married there.
So thank you to the DCR family and staff for making all of my dreams as a Bride come true!

Ive been going to Jackson for the past 18 years of my life and I knew once I got engaged I wanted to get married there. It didn't take me long to come across Diamond Cross Ranch and once I saw it I knew that was my venue. With being 8+ hours away and during a pandemic I knew it was going to be hard to plan a wedding but Lauren at DCR and the other staff were beyond helpful. DCR is seriously the most beautiful wedding venue I think in the USA. The backdrop of the mountains, horses, and the pasture is like nothing you have ever seen. It takes your breath away when you see it not only the first time but every single time. The barn is beautiful especially with the big windows that capture the mountains behind you. Everything about this place and the staff is incredible. Highly recommend you won't be disappointed!

Our wedding absolutely blew our expectations out of the water. The venue was perfect and handled the storm that rolled in mid - ceremony seamlessly. Lauren was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the wedding planning process. DCR is absolutely the most affordable/cost-effective outdoor venue with a view of the Tetons. We couldn't have managed anywhere else in Jackson with those iconic views. And why Would anyone get married in Jackson without the views of the Tetons?? Highly recommend DCR.
Unfortunately we did have a bit of a hiccup, and while I truly adored the venue and its staff, it was a huge bummer- the day after the wedding my husband and I were contacted because we had to dispose of the arbor (the arch we got married under that my husband had built because DCR said they didn't provide one - though it turned out they did have one on property we could've used). The employee said we had to get back to DCR and remove the arbor by 2 pm that day or else they would keep our entire $1000 security deposit. I don't know if this was a miscommunication with the wedding planner or us but we had no idea it would be such an issue, as it was a few light logs that would have been very easy to throw into a wood pile and burn, or use as firewood for the fire pit they provide to all their guests. Additionally the venue was 50 minutes away and we were supposed to be honeymooning. My dad ended up driving out there and picking it up and disposing of it quite easily as it was natural logs, but it cost him 2.5 hours of his time that should not have been necessary as disposing of it only took about 30 minutes (not $1000 worth of time).
Hopefully - this will just serve as a note to any future brides and to the venue that this issue needs to be communicated better and it needs to be clear to the planner or whoever that even an arch that future brides would probably like to use needs to be taken away. You can imagine how stressful it was to get this call as a bride the day after her wedding and being told you'd lose 1000 dollars if it wasn't taken care of. Thank goodness we had family in town to help us.

Lauren and the Diamond Cross Ranch staff were beyond wonderful to work with! The ranch provides chairs and tables for the ceremony and reception which is a game changer. They setup everything beforehand for us which made the day go by so smoothly. Cannot recommend this venue enough! If you are getting married in Jackson this is hands down the best Wedding Venue!! Also, they release horses during the ceremony to run behind you so this and the stunning views made for THE BEST wedding photos EVER!

My husband and I had our dream wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch. Thanks to the family, the ranch, Lauren, and all of our vendors! Everyone came together to put our dream wedding together. With a destination wedding, we were slightly nervous that we we were not going to be able to know how things were going to go until they happened. Despite the world of COVID, these guys made sure everything was done the way we had wanted, just by getting to know us and spending the time to talk to us whenever we needed. We had the best venue in all of Wyoming (Diamond Cross Ranch), the greatest wedding planner in all of Wyoming (Alison Kyle), the most creative flourish (Flowers by Chloe), the biggest party (DJ Steady Jake), and the tastiest caterers (Genevieve Catering) who catered an amazing bar as well. Diamond Cross Ranch had the best views and when the horses ran, which is their signature mark to your ceremony, it had every single one of our guests in tears.

This venue is an absolute DREAM. From the horses, to the big red barn, to absolutely stunning views... everything is magical! The owners were so genuinely sweet, easy to work with, and so flexible in COVID-times. Best venue in Wyoming. No doubt about it.

We couldn’t have asked for a better venue, or people to work with. Lauren helped every step of the way with whatever I needed! The venue itself and the back drop is just magical. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect thanks to Diamond Cross Ranch.

Diamond Cross Ranch was the PERFECT location for our small intimate wedding! The staff was fantastic and welcoming- and made our night so special! The views are spectacular and the ranch is a perfect mix of nice and classy but still that western atmosphere! We LOVED it. We planned to get married on the lawn but it was drizzling so the back up plan of the patio was perfect!!

We could not have been more grateful to work with Diamond Cross Ranch for our wedding!! They are amazing and so helpful! Having to plan our wedding during Covid was not easy but Diamond Cross made it so smooth and reassuring. The venue is stunning in every way. So many of our guests said they couldn’t imagine a better spot to get married and the horses added another surprise that people will talk about long after the wedding is over. Highly recommend! They made our day perfect.

Diamond Cross Ranch is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been! My husband and I couldn’t have dreamt of a more beautiful place to host our wedding. Not only are the views of the Tetons breathtaking but the entire ranch looks like something out of a movie. The barn is elegantly rustic and creates the perfect backdrop for the most beautiful pictures, both inside and out. The entire family is so kind and welcoming, we didn’t want to leave at the end of the night. We had a very small, intimate wedding, something many wedding venues try to avoid but Diamond Cross Ranch welcomed us with open arms. Lauren was extremely helpful with recommendations for caterers, makeup, music, and even took the role of being somewhat of a wedding planner, making sure all of the small details were taken care of! Grant and Jane were so kind and made us feel like part of the family for the night! We even got to know the ranch handler really well and had a great time around the bonfire getting to know him. Diamond Cross Ranch is the reason we had the most beautiful wedding and we will forever cherish our time there. We can’t thank them enough for opening up their home to us for our special day and we hope to be back one day!

My now husband and I live in Moran, WY. Through my previous job, I had worked with Grant and Jane bringing corporate events to their ranch. They had always been incredibly lovely to work with, so when the time came to pick a venue, the choice was easy. Grant, Jane, Lauren, Peter and the rest of the Diamond Cross team, went above and beyond to make sure our day went perfectly. We are so grateful to have such an amazing venue (and people) in our backyard!
We can't thank you enough!

The Diamond Cross Ranch venue was perfect for us in every way. It was beautiful, easy to access, fun, and special. The staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel really welcome. The horses added so much atmosphere. The interior of the barn was lovely and comfortable. I just couldn't have asked for a better experience. We had our dream wedding at the Diamond Cross.

Our experience with Diamond Cross was beyond exceptional. They worked with us to allow guests to arrive early. Their staff was friendly, professional, and willing to help in any and every way possible- from moving chairs to wrangling guests. When we realized that we had no one who wanted to leave to take our dogs to the hotel, Diamond Cross stepped right in and graciously took our dogs and made sure they got food. This team was fantastic from top to bottom and made our special day even better than we could have imagined. Oh yeah, and the horses running out as I kissed the bride definitely blew everybody away!

It's been six weeks since my husband and I got married at Diamond Cross Ranch, and we still cannot get over how perfect and stunningly beautiful the wedding — primarily the location and venue — was. Nothing beats the backdrop of Mount Moran (part of the Tetons) and grazing horses, and when coupled with the vast barn (a beautiful barn with dirt floors that's actually utilized to-date, not a barn built for a Pinterest wedding), we couldn't have asked for a more authentic Jackson wedding venue.
Working with Lauren and her family, who have owned the ranch for generations, was also wonderful; throughout the entire planning process, from the initial outreach email to the finalization of details the week-of, I experienced prompt, thorough communication and over-the-top service. They even went out of their way to accommodate an impromptu visit during a busy holiday weekend when family wanted to see the ranch. Their professionalism and hospitality are truly top-notch!
All in all, I can't say enough positive things about the venue. With premium service at a realistic, affordable price point and, most importantly, the most gorgeous of locations, DCR is an absolute dream.

We are still on cloud nine after having our wedding and reception at Diamond Cross Ranch. The setting could not be any more perfect for an intimate wedding celebration. The incredible views of the Tetons and beautiful grounds made our wedding photos turn out like something you'd see in a fairytale! Our guests were blown away by the views, idyllic setting, beautiful horses, fire pits with s'mores and genuine hospitality of the Long/Golliher family. Many guests told us it was the best wedding they have ever attended!
The barn was rustic with a touch of class that really made our guests feel truly immersed in what we can only describe as a little slice of Americana heaven. The facilities on the ranch were fantastic, wifi was fast, tables & chairs were nice, and the dance floor constructed in the barn allowed everyone to get down and have a great time.
Working with Lauren and Peter was remarkably easy. They made us feel like part of the family and were quick to get back to us on all of the questions and asks we had. We can't stress enough how important that is when planning a destination wedding. The vendors they recommended were excellent and just as easy to work with.
We are so glad we decided to have our wedding in Jackson, and Diamond Cross Ranch is without a doubt the best venue in town! We couldn't be more thrilled with how everything turned out for our wedding and wish we could come back every year and get married at the ranch again! :)

Got married here on 8.10.19. It was the most wonderful experience from start to finish. We came to Jackson a year prior to find a venue and were struggling. We couldn’t find a place that would call us back and the ones that did were very much out of the budget. Then DCR came in. They responded immediately on our request to come tour the venue. Jane warmly met us. She showed us the barn, talked us through what we were looking for and guided us through weddings and events they had in the past. They have an amazing barn with a space for the bride to get ready, really nice bathrooms (a huge plus!) and space for the caterers. The property has green grass for days, pastures surrounding the whole area, a great space for cocktails right outside the barn and the views! The views are what make it. Because our wedding was small, they gave us a great deal and we weren’t required to hire a wedding planner. This was so helpful since we did have a limited budget.
Leading up to the wedding, Lauren was amazing. Anytime I would email, I would get a response within 24 hours if not sooner. She was so helpful with organizing everything and they really worked so hard to make our wedding day so incredibly special. She knew all of the right questions to ask ahead of time and they really had everything nailed down with all of our moving parts. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to get married. Thank you for everything! ❤️

I've been paid to research and/or read people most of my life. After researching hundreds of weddings venues in Texas, Alabama, Colorado, Montana, California, and Wyoming, I stumbled upon this incredible property. What I didn't expect was to be met with professionalism in word and deed and honesty that surpassed all other places with which I had started conversations. My only regret is I didn't not find this family and their family owned ranch sooner. They handle their weddings with the big city professionalism found at major events, yet with the down to earth kindness for everyone found in only the most genuine hearts. My wedding and everyone who attended from around the world and U.S. said it was the best wedding they have ever attended not just because of the view and the special extras the ranch provides, yet because of the entire atmosphere. Thank you Diamond Cross Ranch for showing our guest from so many diverse backgrounds and lifestyles the love in your hearts and still being direct enough to let us know what our many options are for the property.

My husband and I just celebrated our first wedding anniversary, and we still cannot stop thinking about how perfect our wedding at Diamond Cross Ranch was. We live in Jackson Hole, and are therefore very familiar with many of the venue options in the area. But nothing else even compared to Diamond Cross for us. It had everything we were looking for: stunning views of the Tetons, fabulous indoor and outdoor spaces, privacy, the flexibility to tailor the space and vendors to our tastes and budget, and a truly unique and authentic atmosphere.
But beyond those checkboxes, Diamond Cross also features some intangibles that make hosting an event there a dream. Everyone that we worked with at the ranch was an absolute pleasure- kind, accommodating, responsive, and genuine. They really go above and beyond to ensure that you have the best experience. The beautiful horses bring a true fairy tale element to any event. And the history of the ranch and the conservation spirit of Jane's family makes this location even more incredible.
Our guests were absolutely awe-struck by Diamond Cross, and my husband and I still get comments from friends and family about our wedding to this day. Ultimately, we feel so fortunate to have been able to make our dream wedding a reality at this location. And I would highly recommend Diamond Cross to anyone considering it.

The family that owns and operates the Diamond Cross Ranch(DCR) are so kind and accommodating. We couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect venue and/or setting to host our special day. Our wedding was simple and majestic. Winter or summer, you'd do yourself and your guests a massive favor by having DCR take care of your needs.

We hosted our son's rehearsal dinner at Diamond Cross in August. There could not have been a more perfect venue! Our guests arrived from Jackson by bus; seeing the awe and delight on their faces as they took in the view was priceless. The beautifully manicured lawn, the spacious covered patio and the "big red barn" provided everything we could have ever imagined and much more. The haze from the California wild fires dimmed the view of the Tetons, but certainly did not dim our experience. I don't know who took more photos, the professional photographer or our guests. We had cocktails outside admiring the gorgeous views and the special treat of horses in the adjoining pasture. We had plenty of space for a 4-piece band inside the barn (great music provided by local musicians - just what we wanted). The caterer had everything they needed and plenty of room to set up a delicious buffet for our 90 guests (room for many more). The Gollihers have thought of EVERYTHING to make Diamond Cross the perfect venue.
The Gollihers are the most gracious hosts. We deeply appreciate Grant and Jane (& Keith) for sharing this spectacular, authentic ranch. We will forever hold Diamond Cross and the Gollihers in our hearts.

Diamond Cross Ranch is beyond perfect. My wedding day was better than anything I could have ever dreamed of. My husband and I are from Texas and decided to do a destination wedding last August. From the very beginning my entire wedding planning team, including the owners of Diamond Cross, Jane and Grant, were AMAZING. Each one of them made planning from afar so easy and enjoyable! I found so much comfort knowing they would take care of every little detail. The owners of DC, Jane and Grant, as well as the Ranch Manager, Keith, were so kind and generous to my entire family. Everyone at my wedding raved about their ranch and hospitality. I can't thank them enough. The ranch itself is breathtaking. When my husband and I arrived at our reception Jane and Grant released their herd of horses and it was such a magical moment that I will never forget. My guests loved taking pictures of the horses, playing corn hole/eating smores on the huge lawn, and enjoying a wonderful night inside the big red barn. I received so many compliments on the venue and owners, Jane and Grant, from my guests! It was perfect.
You also can not beat the scenery. Unfortunately, due to the California wild fires the Grand Tetons were hard to view from the ranch during my wedding, BUT that didn't even matter. It was beautiful nonetheless. Diamond Cross Ranch rests in a beautiful valley that seems to be out of a fairy tail. The barn is beautifully kept and provided the perfect place for my family to gather and celebrate. The lawn outside is also beautiful! I had many children at my reception that loved being able to run and play! Furthermore, the horses are such a special touch to the venue and my guests LOVED their grand entrance, as well as watching them graze all night as the sun dipped below the mountains. I was so happy when I found out that the bride and groom are allowed to go into the field to take sunset photos with them. My dreams came true that night, and I owe it all to Diamond Cross Ranch.
My wedding planners were Jan and Kathi from Special Events Jackson. Both of them did a WONDERFUL job organizing everything before, during and after the wedding. I was very lucky finding them to help me plan my dream wedding. My other vendors included Flowers By Chloe, Steady Jake DJ, Jackson Cake Co. Monica, Bistro Catering, Tower 3 Productions for videography and Peter Lobozzo for Photography. Each of these vendors were amazing!! If you are planning a wedding in Jackson Hole, I highly recommend starting with these vendors!! Each one is so kind, helpful and wonderful! Peter Lobozzo for my photography was especially a blessing. His work is breathtaking.
So lastly, if you are planning a wedding in Jackson Hole, WY you must do it at Diamond Cross. It is the perfect venue, owned and operated by such special individuals and has the most spectacular views that your guests are sure to rave about. No need to look any further. I can't wait to go out to Diamond Cross again one day and relive my amazing wedding day. Diamond Cross will always have a special place in my heart and be the place of the best day of my life. I promise, if you book this venue it'll capture your heart just like it captured mine. Thank you Diamond Cross Ranch!!
