Diamond Cross Ranch

asy to communicate with throughout the planning process. Everything ran smoothly, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!!

just know how to create the perfect Western yet classy wedding experience for so many couples.

eeing 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.

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.

re 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!!

osed. 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.

elpful 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!!

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!!

ulous!! 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!!!

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!

eel 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!

uests 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!

n 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.

rom 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.

amless 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!

ot 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.

annual vow renewal was a thing, we’d do it here every year!!!

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

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!

tial 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.

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.

staff are the absolute kindest people who played such a big role in having our day go as smooth as possible. Lauren and her team are amazing, and my husband and I are beyond grateful for all of their hard work and for providing such an incredible and unique place to say "I do". Thank you, DCR!

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.

rience 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!

d 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!

d 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.

p 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!

ogether. 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.
