Old Bison Ranch

I absolutely love how beautiful the Vin is but there are a few minor issues and one major problem. The venue is not cheap. I paid $7500 to rent the venue. I set up the day before and the day of my wedding. Everything was good to go. We started the margarita machines I had no clue that it would throw their breakers off when they were plugged in at the bar on one side of the building and the second bar on the other side of the building we had two margarita machines going I rented those that cost $1000 then I had over $1000 in margaritas I personally the bride do not drink margaritas unless they are frozen. We were unable to freeze them so all margaritas had to be on the rocks because if we did freeze them, it was tripping the breaker that is an electrical issue with the venue and I don’t believe that was fair it almost ruined my way, that is what I drink. I don’t care for much other alcohol so I had to change the course of what I was gonna drink because I hate margaritas on the rocks. We wasted running renting margarita machines because we couldn’t even use them. I did let the venue know that our margaritas were not able to be frozen and they didn’t offer any kind of compensation or disregarded the fact I had spent thousands of dollars on a renting of margarita machines and the actual margaritas themselves had I known we weren’t able to have margaritas frozen. I would’ve only chosen beer and a few signature drinks that was super disappointing for me as the bride secondly I did not realize that there was no deposit that was going to be refunded, but that’s not a major problem that is minor. My main issue was a margaritas, and then the disregard for how crappy the situation was Cindy is awesome to work with. The only other minor issue is no stay at the actual venue, but that is for her liability issues and I understand that. besides the waist of a couple thousand dollars on the margaritas I would’ve given them a 10 star but due to the fact that I had to waste right at $2000 on margaritas and margarita machines, and the cleanup and the headache with them all, and didn’t even get to use them is extremely upsetting, other than that and beautiful let me also add it was not either of the margarita machines. It was the actual venue that would not allow them to freeze without tripping the breaker. We should’ve been notified weeks before our wedding to let us know that Margarita machines use too much power, but we were a lot it could’ve saved me a lot of money as weddings are already expensive, and that is super unsettling

Old Bison Ranch is excellent! They're service, attentiveness and venue is all beyond my expectations. Cindie was such a great help and easy to work with, highly recommend!

Loved our venue! There was a bridal house and grooms house. The grounds were kept very clean and maintained. There were fresh flowers and greenery at the wedding provided by the owner. (we did buy our own flowers) The owners were very easy to work with and made sure our needs were met. The owners own a local greenery, so we had the option of picking out additional foliage to place around the grounds and venue. The reception hall was huge! lots of room for tables and dancing. We had a total of 15 tables and a long bridal table, with room to spare. The ceremony space was beautiful at sunset with the tree and pond in the background. The benches were cleaned before guests arrived. Amazing backgrounds for pictures, including an old truck, barn and other rustic farm things. Nothing but positive comments to say about this venue.

The venue is beautiful! It's a perfect location for a country wedding. It rained on my wedding day and their Plan B had everything turn out amazing. My motto the day of was "it is what it is..." Everyone more than enjoyed themselves and it turned out better than I expected. There's an onsite cabin that you can rent out and stay the night in before and after. We didn't and I wished we had considered it for the night before. The staff, from what I heard after the fact, wasn't terribly helpful in sweeping and setting up the chairs. When I drove up, I saw a mess of people running around but didn't pay too much attention to it. Maybe because they were short staffed that day...? Who knows. But Jodi Gentry is the event coordinator and she's a sweetheart. She'll typically always call you back within a day or two. She also texts, too.
